The present invention relates to biochemical methods for assessing matabolic fitness and/or aerobic demands of a living system. Specifically, the rate of synthesis and turnover of the molecular components of mitochondrial mass are used to determine the aerobic capacity and/or aerobic demand of tissues or living organisms. The direct measurement of metabolic fitness and/or aerobic demand by this means can be used as an index of the efficacy of an exercise training program or other therapeutic intervention; as medical risk factor for predicting the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, death or other health outcome; or as an aid to pharmaceutical companies for drug discovery in the area of metabolic fitness, deconditioning, and oxidative biology.

La présente invention concerne des procédés biochimiques, qui permettent d'évaluer l'aptitude métabolique et/ou les demandes aérobies d'un système vivant. Plus particulièrement, le taux de synthèse et le renouvellement des éléments moléculaires de masse mitochondriale sont utilisés pour déterminer la capacité aérobie et/ou la demande aérobie de tissus ou d'organismes vivants. La mesure directe de l'aptitude métabolique et/ou de la demande aérobie par ce moyen peut être utilisée comme indice de l'efficacité d'un programme de formation pratique ou autre intervention thérapeutique; comme facteur de risque médical pour prédire le risque de maladie cardiovasculaire, de diabète, de décès ou d'autres problèmes de santé; ou comme outil destiné à aider des sociétés pharmaceutiques à la découverte de médicaments dans le domaine de l'aptitude métabolique, du déconditionnement, et de la biologie oxydative.
