This study investigated changes in mitochondrial response to ischemia in skeletal muscle of non-obese type 2 diabetic rats. Mitochondrial function and tissue oxygenation was evaluated in vivo using interleaved 31P Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) and Blood Oxygen Level-Dependent (BOLD) imaging. Results from 12- and 18-week rats showed a progression of mitochondrial dysfunction.
