Absence of relationship between the level of electron transport chain activities and aging in human skeletal muscle
Abstract
We investigated the relationship between age and respiratory chain function of skeletal muscle mitochondria in 132 control individuals (15 to 95 years old). Muscle mitochondria were studied polarographically and spectrophotometrically. By regression analysis, we found a significant inverse correlation between age and oxygen uptake linked to substrate oxidation (succinate, glutamate-malate or ascorbate-TMPD). However, this significance disappeared after including physical activity and tobacco consumption as confounding variables in a multivariate statistical analysis. Similarly, the activity of respiratory chain complexes individually measured did not decline with age. It therefore appears that respiratory chain activity in human skeletal muscle mitochondria is substantially undamaged during the aging process.

It has been suggested that age-related reduction in ETC function is not related to aging per se, but due to confounding factors including physical inactivity.
“However, it has also been suggested that the age-related reduction in ETC function, reduced mitochondrial complex I, II, III, and IV activity, is not related to the aging process per se, but rather due to other confounding factors, including physical inactivity (23).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
