Diminished OPA1 expression and impaired mitochondrial morphology and homeostasis are prominent features of aprataxin-deficient cells

ABSTRACT: Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 1 (AOA1) is an early onset progressive spinocerebellar ataxia caused by mutation in aprataxin (APTX). APTX removes 5´-AMP groups from DNA, a product of abortive ligation during DNA repair and replication. APTX deficiency has been suggested to compromise mitochondrial function; however, a detailed characterization of mitochondrial homeostasis in APTX-deficient cells is not available. Here we show that cells lacking APTX undergo mitochondrial stress and display significant changes in the expression of the mitochondrial inner membrane fusion protein OPA1, and components of the oxidative phosphorylation complexes. At the cellular level, APTX deficiency impairs mitochondrial morphology and network formation, and autophagic removal of damaged mitochondria by mitophagy. Thus, our results show that aberrant mitochondrial function is a key component of AOA1 pathology. This work corroborates the emerging evidence that impaired mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy are at the hub of an increasing number of genetically diverse neurodegenerative disorders.

The DNA repair enzyme, Aprataxin, plays a role in innate immune signaling

Project description:Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 1 (AOA1) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a gradual loss of coordination of hand movements, speech, and eye movements. AOA1 is caused by inactivation mutation in the APTX gene.APTX resolves abortive DNA ligation intermediates. APTX deficiency may lead to the accumulation of 5'-AMP termini, especially in the mitochondrial genome. The consequences of APTX deficiency includes impaired mitochondrial function, increased DNA single-strand breaks, elevated reactive oxygen species production, and altered mitochondrial morphology. All of these processes can cause misplacement of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, which can activate innate immune sensors to elicit an inflammatory response.This study explores the impact of APTX knockout in microglial cells, the immune cells of the brain. RNA-seq analysis revealed significant differences in the transcriptomes of wild-type and APTX knockout cells, especially in response to viral infections and innate immune pathways. Specifically, genes and proteins involved in the cGAS-STING and RIG-1/MAVS pathways were downregulated in APTX knockout cells, which suggests an impaired immune response to cytosolic DNA and RNA.The clinical relevance of these findings was supported by analyzing publicly available RNA-seq data from AOA1 patient cell lines. Comparisons between APTX-deficient patient cells and healthy control cells also revealed altered immune responses and dysregulated DNA-and RNA-sensing pathways in the patient cells.Overall, this study highlights the critical role of APTX in regulating innate immunity, particularly in DNA-and RNA-sensing pathways. Our findings contribute to a better 2 This is a provisional file, not the final typeset article understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms of AOA1 pathology and highlights potential therapeutic targets for this disease.

The mitochondrial protein OPA1 regulates the quiescent state of adult muscle stem cells

Project description:Regulation of quiescence is essential for adult stem cell maintenance, longevity and sustained regeneration potential. Our studies have uncovered that physiological and transient changes in mitochondrial shape regulate the quiescent state of adult muscle stem cells (MuSCs). We show that mitochondria in MuSCs rapidly fragment in response to an activation stimulus, via a systemic HGF/mTOR mechanism, to drive the exit from deep quiescence. Deletion of the mitochondrial fusion protein OPA1 and forced mitochondrial fragmentation is sufficient to transition MuSCs into G-alert quiescence causing premature activation and depletion upon a stimulus. Loss of OPA1 activates a glutathione (GSH) redox signaling pathway that promotes cell-cycle progression, myogenic gene expression and commitment. MuSCs with chronic OPA1 loss and mitochondrial fragmentation, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction, continue to reside in a primed state but acquire severe cell cycle defects. Additionally, we provide evidence that OPA1 decline and impaired mitochondrial dynamics may contribute to age-related MuSC dysfunction. These findings reveal a fundamental role for OPA1 and mitochondrial dynamics in establishing the quiescent state and activation potential of adult stem cells.

The mitochondrial fusion protein OPA1 is dispensable in the live

Project description:Mitochondria are critical for metabolic homeostasis of the liver, and thus, mitochondrial dysfunction is a major cause of liver diseases. Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) is a mitochondrial fusion protein that also plays a role in cristae shaping. Hence, the OPA1 gene disruption has been shown to cause mitochondrial dysfunction. However, the role of OPA1 in liver function is poorly understood. In this study, we deleted OPA1 in fully developed mouse liver and examined its effect.

Deletion of the mitochondria-shaping protein Opa1 during early thymocyte maturation impacts mature memory T cell metabolism

Project description:OPA1, a mitochondria-shaping protein controlling cristae biogenesis and respiration, is required for memory T cell function, but whether it affects intrathymic T cell development is unknown. Here we show that OPA1 is necessary for thymocyte maturation at the double negative (DN)3 stage when rearrangement of the T-cell receptor β (Tcrβ) locus occurs. By profiling mitochondrial function at different stages of thymocyte maturation, we find that DN3 cells rely on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Consistently, Opa1 deletion during early T cell development impairs respiration of DN3 cells and reduces their number. Opa1-deficient DN3 cells indeed display stronger TCR signaling and are more prone to cell death. The surviving Opa1-/- thymocytes that reach the periphery as mature T cells display an Effector Memory phenotype even in the absence of antigenic stimulation but are unable to generate metabolically fit long-term memory T cells. Thus, mitochondrial defects early during T cell development affect mature T cell function.

Genotype data from induced Pluripotent Stem cells from OPA1 Haploinsufficiency patients

Project description:We have generated human induced Pluripotent Stem cells (hiPSc) from two individuals with OPA1 haploinsufficiency, and one control donor, using Sendai virus-mediated delivery of reprogramming factors. hiPSc lines have been screened using SNP array to assess chromosomal stability (alongside the fibroblast lines from which they derived), and validation of the pluripotency of the hiPSc lines is provided by Pluritest assessment of transcriptome datasets, prior to differentiation to dopaminergic neuronal clutures and downstream functional assays. Mitochondrial fragmentation in iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons with OPA1 haploinsufficiency underpins increased apoptosis and syndromic Parkinsonism.

Necroptosis inhibition protects from dopaminergic neuronal cell death in OPA1 mutant Parkinson’s disease patient neurons and MPTP treated mice

Project description:Dysfunctions in mitochondria dynamics and metabolism are common pathological processes associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Recently, it was shown that an inherited form of PD and dementia is caused by new mutations in the OPA1 gene, which encodes for a key player of mitochondrial fusion and structure. iPSC-derived neural cells from these patients exhibited severe mitochondrial fragmentation, respiration impairment, ATP deficits and heightened oxidative stress. Reconstitution of normal levels of OPA1 in PD-derived neural cells normalized mitochondria morphology and function. OPA1 mutated neuronal cultures showed reduced survival in vitro. Intriguingly, selective inhibition of necroptosis effectively rescued this survival deficit. Additionally, dampening necroptosis in MPTP treated mice protected from DA neuronal cell loss. This human iPSC-based model captures both the early pathological events in OPA1 mutant neural cells and the beneficial effects of blocking necroptosis, highlighting this cell death process as a promising therapeutic target for PD.
