Heat Stress Increases Mitochondrial Complex I Capacity in Female Pigs but Favors Reliance on Complex II in Males

Abstract: Heat stress (HS) negatively impacts animal health and impairs growth, but little is known about sex‐specific responses of skeletal muscle mitochondria to HS. To test the hypothesis that HS would have more adverse effects on mitochondria in females than males, samples were collected from the oxidative portion of the semitendinosus muscle of 3‐month‐old female and castrated male pigs under thermoneutral (TN) conditions or after 1 or 7 d of HS at 39.4°C (n=8/sex/group). Mitochondrial volume density and function w… Show more
