Mitochondrial mass in in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy controls and patients with Bipolar Disorder type I (BD-I). (a) Distribution of relative mtDNA copy number. (b) Citrate synthase activity. (c) Correlation coefficient (Pearson's correlation coefficient) between citrate synthase activity and protein levels of Mfn2. (d) Correlation coefficient (Spearman's rank correlation test) between citrate synthase activity and protein levels of Opa1. Data were presented as median and interquartile range (IQR). Differences between 2 groups were compared using the Mann–Whitney U-test. Different from the control group; *P<0.05.
