HIV infection and its treatment are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic derangement. However, longitudinal changes in oxidative phosphorylation activities [Complex I (C1) and Complex IV (C4)], or venous lactate/pyruvate ratios (LPR), and their relationships with insulin resistance (IR), remain unclear in youth living with perinatally-acquired HIV (YPHIV). We measured venous LPR, C1, and C4 activities in blood cells and homeostatic model assessment for IR (HOMA-IR) over two years. Limited longitudinal differences in mitochondrial-related measures and IR were observed in YPHIV vs youth perinatally HIV-exposed but uninfected. There were no systematic differences in C1, C4, or HOMA-IR between the groups.
