Abstract Mitochondrial dysfunction is considered a hallmark of aging. Up to now, gradual decline mitochondrial respiration with advancing age has mainly been demonstrated in human muscle tissue. A handful studies have examined age-related blood cells, and only small sample sizes platelets. In this study, we analyzed peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMCs) platelets from 308 individuals across the lifespan (0–86 years). regression analyses, adjustment for false discovery rate (FDR), found...

There is a growing interest for the possibility of using peripheral blood cells (including platelets) as markers mitochondrial function in less accessible tissues. Only few studies have examined correlation between respiration and muscle tissue, with small sample sizes conflicting results.This study investigated within across Additional analyses were performed to elucidate which cell type would be most useful assessing systemic function.There was significant but weak tissue platelets...
