Abstract

We present new data on the effects of HBOT on human kidney (HK-2) cell metabolism using a SeaHorse XF Analyzer to evaluate separately the state of mitochondrial and glycolytic energy metabolism. The data are discussed in the context of the concept of cellular caloristasis networks. The information on the changes in cellular energy metabolism stimulated by HBOT presented here provides new insights into the cellular energy state and mitochondrial environment in which sHSPs function. These data will be useful in forming testable hypotheses about the functions of translocated sHSPs in human mitochondria responding to stressors.

Acknowledgments

We wish to acknowledge the Life Support Technologies Group, Tarrytown, NY, and its founder and CEO Glenn J. Butler for generously providing the Small Round Experimental Hyperbaric Chamber, designed for cell cultures, used in these experiments. We thank Jared Fernandez, Agilent Technologies, Seahorse Bioscience, Santa Clara, CA, for helping us to evaluate cellular mitochondrial and glycolytic profiles. We also send our thanks to Carol Norris and Chris O’Connell, University of Connecticut, Flow Cytometry and Confocal Microscopy Facility, for their expert imaging help.
