Mitofusin 2 is essential for oocyte and follicle development, and to maintain ovarian follicular reserve during reproductive aging [SFO]

ABSTRACT: We performed RNAseq analysis to determine the effect of MFN2 deletion on oocyte global gene expression profile. RNAseq revealed a total of 1041 genes were significantly differentially expressed (p<0.05) in Mfn2-/- seceondary follicle enclosed oocytes (SFOs) compared to WT, with 510 up-regulated and 531 down-regulated genes. GO cluster analysis indicated significant over-representation of elements involved in regulation of cell death and survival, cellular development and cellular growth. Pathway analysis of top10 upregulated and downregulated annotated genes are listed. Our findings provide new insight into the role of MFN2 in the oocytes, and may help understand the potential mechanism of subfertility and reproductive aging associated with MFN2-deficiency.

Mitofusin 2 is essential for oocyte and follicle development, and to maintain ovarian follicular reserve during reproductive aging [GV]

Project description:We performed RNAseq analysis to determine the effect of MFN2 deletion on oocyte global gene expression profile. RNAseq revealed a total of 363 genes were significantly differentially expressed (p<0.05) in Mfn2-/- GV oocytes compared to WT (241 up-regulated and 122 down-regulated). Gene ontology (GO) analysis indicated significant over-representation of elements involved in regulation of embryonic development, cell death and survival, and cell morphology. Pathway analysis of top10 upregulated and downregulated annotated genes are listed. Our findings provide new insight into the role of MFN2 in the oocytes, and may help understand the potential mechanism of subfertility and reproductive aging associated with MFN2-deficiency.

Mitofusin 2 expression in muscle decreases during aging and generates a gene signature characteristic of aged muscle

Project description:Mitochondrial fusion and fission proteins regulate mitochondrial quality control and mitochondrial metabolism. In turn, mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with aging, although its causes are still under debate. Here, we show that aging is characterized by a progressive reduction of Mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) in mouse skeletal muscle and that skeletal muscle Mfn2 ablation in mice generates a gene signature linked to aging. Furthermore, muscle Mfn2-deficient mice show unhealthy aging characterized by altered metabolic homeostasis and sarcopenia. Mfn2 deficiency impairs mitochondrial quality control, which contributes to an exacerbated age-related mitochondrial dysfunction. Surprisingly, aging-induced Mfn2 deficiency triggers a ROS-dependent retrograde signaling pathway through induction of HIF1 transcription factor and BNIP3. This pathway ameliorates mitochondrial autophagy and minimizes mitochondrial damage. Our findings reveal that repression of Mfn2 in skeletal muscle during aging is determinant for the loss of mitochondrial quality, contributing to age-associated metabolic alterations and loss of muscle fitness. Quadriceps muscle from four mice per genotype were used (Control young (6 month-old), Mfn2KO young (6-month-old), control old (22-month-old) and Mfn2KO old (22-month-old)

The Mitochondrial Protein Mitofusin 2 Stabilizes Adherens Junctions and Suppresses Endothelial Inflammation via Modualtion of β-catenin Signaling

Project description:Endothelial barrier integrity is ensured by the stability of the adherens junction (AJ) complexes comprised of VE-cadherin as well as accessory proteins such as β-catenin and p120-catenin. Disruption of the endothelial barrier due to disassembly of AJs results in tissue edema and the influx of inflammatory cells. Using three-dimensional structured illumination microscopy (3D- SIM), we found that the mitochondrial protein Mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) co-localizes at the plasma membrane with VE-cadherin and β-catenin in endothelial cells during homeostasis. Upon inflammatory stimulation, Mfn2 is sulfenylated, the Mfn2/β-catenin complex disassociates from the AJs and translocates into the nucleus where Mfn2 negatively regulates the transcriptional activity of β-catenin. Endothelial-specific deletion of Mfn2 resulted in inflammatory injury, indicating an anti-inflammatory role of Mfn2 in vivo. Our results suggest that Mfn2 acts in a non- canonical manner to suppress the inflammatory response by stabilizing cell-cell adherens junctions and by binding to the transcriptional activator β-catenin.

Restoring Mitofusin balance in the nervous system prevents axonal degeneration in a CMT2A mouse model

Project description:MFN2 is a mitochondrial outer membrane protein that plays a pivotal role in mitochondrial dynamics in most tissues, yet mutations in MFN2 (which cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A) primarily affect the nervous system. We generated a transgenic mouse model of CMT2A which developed severe early-onset vision loss and neurological deficits, axonal degeneration without cell body loss, and cytoplasmic and axonal accumulations of fragmented mitochondria labeled for degradation. Mutant MFN2R94Q had a dominant negative effect on mitochondrial fusion if MFN1 was absent or at low levels, as in neurons. Finally we found that augmenting the level of MFN1 in the nervous system in vivo led to rescue of all phenotypes in mutant MFN2R94Q expressing mice. These data demonstrate that the MFN1:MFN2 ratio is a key determinant of tissue specificity in CMT2A, and indicates that augmentation of MFN1 in the nervous system is a viable therapeutic strategy for the disease.

The transcriptome of human oocytes is related to age and ovarian reserve.

Project description:Although it is well established that the ovarian reserve diminishes with increasing age, and that a woman’s age is correlated to lower oocyte quality, the interplay of a diminished reserve and age on oocyte developmental competence is not clear. After maturation, oocytes are mostly transcriptionally quiescent, and developmental competence prior to embryonic genome activation (EGA) relies on maternal RNA and proteins. Age and ovarian reserve both affects oocyte developmental competence, however, their relative importance in this process are difficult to tease out, as ageing is accompanied by a decrease in ovarian reserve. Oocytes store large quantities of RNA, including several noncoding transcripts (ncRNAs) involved in early development transcription and translation modulation. Despite the central role of ncRNAs in maternal to zygote transition, no characterization of the ncRNA transcriptome in human oocytes has been reported. This study aims at identifying how the human oocyte transcriptome changes across reproductive ages and ovarian reserve levels, with the goal of identifying candidate markers of developmental competence, and to assess the independent relevance of age and ovarian reserve in the changes of the transcriptome

PRC1-mediated epigenetic programming is required to generate the ovarian reserve

Project description:The ovarian reserve defines the female reproductive lifespan, which in humans spans decades due to robust maintenance of meiotic arrest in oocytes residing in primordial follicles. Epigenetic reprogramming, including DNA demethylation, accompanies meiotic entry, but the chromatin changes that underpin the generation and preservation of ovarian reserves are poorly defined. We report that the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) establishes repressive chromatin states in perinatal mouse oocytes that directly suppress the gene expression program of meiotic prophase-I and thereby enable the transition to dictyate arrest. PRC1 dysfuction causes depletion of the ovarian reserve and leads to premature ovarian failure. Our study demonstrates a fundamental role for PRC1-mediated gene silencing in female reproductive lifespan, and reveals a critical window of epigenetic programming required to establish ovarian reserve.
