Exploring mitochondrial metabolism of wild‐type and diabetic mice skin explants using the Seahorse technology

Résumé

Abstract Background Skin wound healing is a complex mechanism which requires a lot of energy, mainly provided by mitochondrial respiration. However, little is known about the mitochondrial bioenergetics of mice skin. We sought to develop a microplate‐based assay to directly measure oxygen consumption in whole mice skin with the goal of identifying mitochondrial dysfunction in diabetic skin using an extracellular flux. Materials and methods Different parameters were optimized to efficiently measure the oxygen consumption rate (OCR). First, the most pertinent skin side of wild‐type mice was first determined. Then, concentrations of mitochondrial inhibitors were then optimized to get the best efficacy. Finally, punch sizes were modulated to get the best OCR profile. Results Dermis had the best metabolic activity side of the skin. Unlike the increased concentrations of carbonyl cyanide‐p‐trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP) and rotenone/antimycin A, which showed no improvement of these drugs' effects, varying the skin punch size was successful. Finally, type II diabetic (T2D) skin produced less ATP through mitochondrial metabolism and had a greater non‐mitochondrial oxygen consumption than wild‐type or type I diabetic (T1D) skin. Conclusion Here we designed, for the first time, a reliable protocol to measure mitochondria function in whole mouse skin. Our optimized protocol was valuable in assessing alterations associated with diabetes and could be applied to future studies of pathological human skin metabolism.
