Complex I (CI) deficiency is one of the most common defects in OXPHOS system and representing more than 30% cases of mitochondrial diseases. The group is characterized by clinical and genetic heterogeneity and comprise several nosological forms. The most prevalent phenotypes for complex I deficiency are LHON and Leigh syndrome.

In this study we analyzed skin fibroblasts from 11 patients with mutations in mtDNA, which cause LHON or Leigh-like phenotypes: m.11778 G>A (N=3), m.3460 A>G (N=2), m.3635 G>A (N=1), m.3308 T>G (N=2), m.3472 T>C (N=1) and 2 patients with unpublished substitutions m.3945 C>A and m.14441T>C. High-resolution respirometry (HRR) on the Oxygraph-2k (Oroboros Instruments, Austria) was performed for complex analysis of mitochondrial respiratory function in intact and permeabilized fibroblasts of patients and healthy controls.

Flux control rations in intact cells R/E, (R-L)/E (p<0,05) were raised compared to the control. Rates R, E, L normalized on the citrate synthase activity (CS) were statistically varied between patients and controls. In permeabilized fibroblasts we observed differences in СII/E, Rot/E, R/CII, CI/CII (p<0,05) between groups. These data highlight the dysfunction of OXPHOS system and particularly CI. Increased CS level and decreased CI/CII ratio indicate compensatory metabolic answer on respiratory chain dysfunction.

Our results show the facilities of HRR in revealing the biochemical abnormalities of complex I in patient’s fibroblasts with LHON and Leigh-like syndrome. We also suggest HRR to be useful method for inspection other mutations causing complex I deficiency.
