Mitochondrial membrane potential in human neutrophils is maintained by complex III activity in the absence of supercomplex organisation.

BACKGROUND: Neutrophils depend mainly on glycolysis for their energy provision. Their mitochondria maintain a membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)), which is usually generated by the respiratory chain complexes. We investigated the source of Deltapsi(m) in neutrophils, as compared to peripheral blood mon...
