Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were annotated based on p-values and false discovery rate (q-values).

In terms of absolute contribution, the highest correlations were associated to the categories of evading immune destruction and energy metabolism and for relative contributions, angiogenesis and evading immune destruction. DEGs were distributed into each one of all possible modes of regulation, regarding up, down and continuum expression, along the 3 stages of metastatic progression. For p-values twenty-six genes were consistently present along the tumoral progression and 4 for q-values. Among the DEGs, we found 2 novel potentially informative metastatic markers: PIGG and SLC8B1.

- Abstract: The application of High-Resolution FluoRespirometry (HRFR) for assessing mitochondrial energy metabolism is well established. Experimental substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor protocols for OXPHOS analysis enable the dissection of functional modules of substrate utilization, converging branches of electron transfer and coupling control for elucidation of the pathways supporting mitochondrial performance and dysfunction. Here we applied substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration protocols to evaluate different mitochondrial preparations from two mammalian experimental models for their suitability in HRR. In mouse heart, a tissue homogenate micropreparation was compared to a permeabilized fiber preparation. In beef heart, with abundant tissue available, we extended this comparison to include the preparation of isolated mitochondria. The permeabilized fiber preparation has its advantages, but also has limitations, specifically the diffusion limitations imposed on mitochondria for oxygen and ADP, inorganic phosphate and energy substrates. To reduce these limitations, we evaluated a method for the preparation of cardiac homogenate which is based on low-shear mechanical homogenization using the PBI-Shredder, an auxiliary tool for HRFR. For mouse cardiac tissue, paired OXPHOS analysis on fibers and Shredder-samples indicated similar mitochondrial coupling control and respiratory capacities. Use of the PBI-Shredder reduced processing time of homogenate preparation compared to permeabilized fiber preparation and improved reproducibility within samples. Application of the PBI-Shredder with homogenates from mouse brain and liver yielded high-quality samples displaying tissue-specific OXPHOS fingerprints. In beef heart samples, Shredder homogenates did not reduce variability between preparations, but enhanced the coupling control ratio compared to both permeabilized fibers and isolated mitochondria. Overall, Shredder homogenates provide a valuable mitochondrial preparation, reducing preparation time and sample requirement while preserving the quality of the mitochondrial preparation.
