Cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy subjects (HS), chronic kidney disease (CKD IV–V) and hemodialysis (HD) patients. Dot-plot represents the mean ± SD of COX enzymatic activity measured by following the oxidation of ferrocytochrome c at 550-540 nm in total cell lysate of 6 HS, 6 CKD and 6 HD. Activity was significantly lower in CKD IV–V and HD compared to HS. The line represents the mean value.
