Remodeling of Liver and Plasma Lipidomes in Mice Lacking Cyclophilin D.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, several studies aimed to investigate the metabolic effects of non-functioning or absent cyclophilin D (CypD), a crucial regulatory component of mitochondrial permeability transition pores. It has been reported that the lack of CypD affects glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the findings are controversial regarding the metabolic pathways involved, and most reports describe the effect of a high-fat diet on metabolism. We performed a lipidomic analysis of plasma and liver samples of CypD-/- and wild-type (WT) mice to reveal the lipid-specific alterations resulting from the absence of CypD. In the CypD-/- mice compared to the WT animals, we found a significant change in 52% and 47% of the measured 225 and 201 lipid species in liver and plasma samples, respectively. The hig
