Methods for Monitoring Mitochondrial Functions During Pathogen Infection

Methods for Monitoring Mitochondrial Functions During Pathogen Infection by Saverio Marchi and Lorenzo Galluzzi is a practical, up-to-date laboratory guide for scientists tackling the intersection of bioenergetics and infectious disease. Combining clear methodology with mechanistic insight, this volume equips researchers with reliable approaches to monitor mitochondrial functions during bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections.

Starting with foundational concepts in mitochondrial biology and host–pathogen interactions, the book moves into step-by-step protocols for live-cell imaging, high-resolution respirometry, mitochondrial membrane potential assays, ROS measurements, and metabolic flux analyses. Detailed troubleshooting tips, experimental controls, and data-interpretation strategies make complex techniques accessible to bench scientists, postdocs, and clinical researchers. Case studies illustrate how mitochondrial readouts inform immune responses and therapeutic strategies in real-world infectious models.

Ideal for laboratory teams across Europe, North America, Asia and beyond, this resource supports translational research in immunology, microbiology, and cell biology. Whether you are establishing mitochondrial assays in a core facility or refining protocols for publication, the practical emphasis and methodological clarity accelerate reproducible results and deepen mechanistic understanding.

Concise, authoritative, and designed for immediate application, Marchi and Galluzzi’s book is a must-have reference for anyone monitoring host metabolism during infection. Enhance your lab’s toolkit and advance your infectious-disease research with methods that bridge bench work and clinical relevance.
