Roles of PINK1 in regulation of systemic growth inhibition induced by mutations of PTEN in Drosophila


ABSTRACT: The maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis requires PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1)-dependent mitophagy, and mutations in PINK1 are associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). PINK1 is also downregulated in tumor cells with PTEN mutations. However, there is limited information concerning the role of PINK1 in tissue growth and tumorigenesis. Here, we show that loss of pink1 caused multiple growth defects independent of its pathological target, Parkin. Moreover, knocking-down pink1 in muscle cells induced hyperglycemia and limited systemic organismal growth by induction of Imaginal morphogenesis protein-Late 2 (ImpL2). Similarly, disrupting PTEN activity in multiple tissues impaired systemic growth by reducing pink1 expression, resembling wasting-like syndrome in cancer patients. Furthermore, re-expression of PINK1 fully rescued defects in carbohydrate metabolism and systemic growth induced by the tissue-specific pten mutations. Our data suggest a new function for PINK1 in regulating systemic growth in Drosophila, and shed light on its role in wasting in context of PTEN mutations.
