Fig. 3. Effect of acclimation temperature on proton leak kinetics of isolated liver
(A) and skeletal muscle mitochondria (B) of fed cane toads. Experiments were
carried out using liver mitochondria of CA (open circles) and WA (filled
circles) and skeletal muscle mitochondria of CA (open squares) and WA (filled
squares) cane toads. A shift of the proton leak curve to the right indicates a
lower proton conductance of CA liver mitochondria (A), while the acclimation
temperature has no effect in skeletal muscle mitochondria (B). Values are
means ± s.e.m. from eight (CA group) or nine (WA group) independent
preparations. *P<0.05 (two-way ANOVA).
