ABSTRACT
Respirometry is a technique for studying mitochondrial function that has proven compatibility with ≥0.5 mg of brain tissue. Here, we present a protocol for assessing oxygen consumption and H2O2 production rates in hippocampal tissue using the Oroboros O2k system. We describe steps for brain harvesting, tissue preparation, hippocampal microdissection, and respirometry assays. This approach has been valuable to study the metabolism of dentate granule cells of the hippocampus and could be applicable to other brain subregions. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Rose et al.1.
