Collection Summary: | Mitochondria were isolated from quadriceps muscle by differential centrifugation, as described previously (38). Briefly, quadriceps muscle samples were homogenized on ice using a motor-driven Potter-Elvehjem tissue grinder. After initial centrifugation, the supernatant containing the mitochondrial and sarcoplasmic fraction was transferred to a chilled microcentrifuge tube and centrifuged at 10,000 g for 2 min to pellet mitochondria. The supernatant containing sarcoplasmic fraction was frozen for further analysis. Mitochondrial pellet was washed twice by resuspending/centrifugation and finally suspended in a mitochondrial storage buffer. The levels of both the LCFa-CoA and sphingolipids in homogenates and various muscle fractions were normalized to total protein content, as measured by 660 nm Protein Assay (Thermo Scientific; Pierce Protein Biology Products, Rockford, IL). |
