Project description:While Notch signaling has been proposed to play a key role in fibrosis, the direct molecular pathways targeted by Notch signaling and the precise ligand and receptor pair that are responsible for kidney disease remain poorly defined. In this study, we found that JAG1 and NOTCH2 showed the strongest correlation with the degree of interstitial fibrosis in a genome wide expression analysis of a large cohort of human kidney samples. Transcript analysis of mouse kidney disease models, including folic-acid-induced nephropathy, unilateral ureteral obstruction, or APOL1-associated kidney disease, indicated that Jag1 and Notch2 levels were higher in all analyzed kidney fibrosis models. Mice with tubule-specific deletion of Jag1 or Notch2 (Kspcre/Jag1flox/flox and Kspcre/Notch2flox/flox) had no kidney-specific alterations at baseline, but showed protection from folic acid induced kidney fibrosis. Tubule-specific genetic deletion of Notch1 and global knock-out of Notch3 had no effect on fibrosis. In vitro chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments and genome-wide expression studies identified the mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) as a direct Notch target. Re-expression of Tfam in tubule cells prevented Notch-induced metabolic and profibrotic reprogramming. Kidney tubule specific deletion of Tfam resulted in fibrosis. In summary, Jag1/Notch2 plays a key role in kidney fibrosis development by regulating Tfam expression and metabolic reprogramming.

Project description:Limited effective targets have challenged the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Casein kinase 2 interacting protein 1 (CKIP-1) is a scaffold protein involved in various diseases. However, the role of CKIP-1 in OSCC remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the regulatory role of CKIP-1 in OSCC, as well as the involved mechanism. First, higher expression of CKIP-1 in OSCC tissues and cell lines were found. Series of gain- and loss-of-function experiments demonstrated suppressed malignant behaviours and enhanced apoptosis of OSCC cells when CKIP-1 was silenced. Also, inhibited tumour growth in CKIP-1-silenced group were proved. Further, mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) downregulation, increased ROS production, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential and cGAS-STING activation in CKIP-1-silenced group were observed. The involvement of mitochondrial homeostasis-related TFAM/cGAS-STING axis in CKIP-1-silenced OSCC cells was finally demonstrated by tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) that inhibits TFAM degradation. Taken together, our study demonstrated that CKIP-1 silencing could significantly antagonize OSCC via TFAM/cGAS-STING axis, which may provide a candidate target for OSCC treatment.

Project description:Fibrosis of the kidney is the final common pathway leading to end stage renal failure. By analyzing kidneys of patients and animal models with fibrosis we observed a significant mitochondrial defect, including the loss of the mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) in kidney tubule cells. Here, we generated mice with tubule-specific deletion of TFAM (Ksp-Cre/Tfam flox/flox). While these mice developed severe mitochondrial loss and energetic deficit (ATP level decline) by 6 weeks of age, kidney fibrosis, immune cell infiltration and progressive azotemia causing death was only observed around 12 weeks of age. Mechanistic studies demonstrated that in the TFAM KO mice aberrant packaging of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) resulted in escape of the mtDNA into the cytosol of the renal cells, activation of the cytosolic cGAS-STING (Stimulator of interferon genes) DNA sensing pathway, and thus cytokine expression and immune cell recruitment. Genetic deletion or pharmacological inhibition of STING ameliorated kidney fibrosis in mouse models of chronic kidney disease, demonstrating that in addition to its essential role in metabolism TFAM sequesters mtDNA to prevent the activation of innate immune pathways and fibrosis.

Project description:The goal of this analysis was to utilize microarray profiling to identify basal alterations in gene expression in response to TFAM depletion and mtDNA stress. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is normally present at thousands of copies per cell and is packaged into several hundred higher-order structures termed nucleoids. The abundant mtDNA-binding protein, TFAM (transcription factor A,mitochondrial), regulates nucleoid architecture, abundance and segregation. Complete mtDNA depletion profoundly impairs oxidative phosphorylation, triggering calcium-dependent stress signalling and adaptive metabolic responses. However, the cellular responses to mtDNA instability, a physiologically relevant stress observed in many human diseases and ageing, remain poorly defined. Here we show that moderate mtDNA stress elicited by TFAM deficiency engages cytosolic antiviral signalling to enhance the expression of a subset of interferon-stimulated genes. Mechanistically, we find that aberrant mtDNA packaging promotes escape of mtDNA into the cytosol, where it engages the DNA sensor cGAS (also known as MB21D1) and promotes STING (also known as TMEM173)–IRF3-dependent signalling to elevate interferon-stimulated gene expression, potentiate type I interferon responses and confer broad viral resistance. Furthermore, we demonstrate that herpesviruses induce mtDNA stress, which enhances antiviral signalling and type I interferon responses during infection. Our results further demonstrate that mitochondria are central participants in innate immunity, identify mtDNA stress as a cell-intrinsic trigger of antiviral signaling and suggest that cellular monitoring of mtDNA homeostasis cooperates with canonical virus sensing mechanisms to fully engage antiviral innate immunity. Murine embryonic fibroblasts were isolated from wild-type or Tfam+/- E13.5 littermate embryos. RNA from passage-matched wild-type and Tfam+/- MEF lines was extracted in duplicate and hybridized onto Affymetrix microarrays. Four arrays were performed in total with two technical replicates per genotype.

Project description:Gene expression analysis of 2-month-old Ctrl and Tfam-SCKO mice. At this age mitochondrial function is disrupted in the Schwann cells of Tfam-SCKO mice ,but their nerves display only very limited pathology. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a common cause of peripheral neuropathy. Much effort has been devoted to examining the role played by neuronal/axonal mitochondria, but how mitochondrial deficits in peripheral nerve glia (Schwann cells, SCs) contribute to peripheral nerve diseases remains unclear. Here, we investigate a mouse model of peripheral neuropathy secondary to SC mitochondrial dysfunction (Tfam-SCKOs). We show that disruption of SC mitochondria activates a maladaptive integrated stress response through actions of heme-regulated inhibitor kinase (HRI), and causes a shift in lipid metabolism away from fatty acid synthesis toward oxidation. These alterations in SC lipid metabolism result in depletion of important myelin lipid components as well as in accumulation of acylcarnitines, an intermediate of fatty acid b-oxidation. Importantly, we show that acylcarnitines are released from SCs and induce axonal degeneration. A maladaptive integrated stress response as well as altered SC lipid metabolism are thus underlying pathological mechanisms in mitochondria-related peripheral neuropathies. Total RNA samples were prepared by isolating and pooling RNA from three different 2-month-old MPZ-Tfam KO and Ctrl mice. 2 replicates per genotype were used in this experiment and they were prepared entirely independently.

Project description:SIRT3 is a NAD+-dependent mitochondrial protein deacetylase participating in the regulation of central metabolism and mitochondrial proteostasis. SIRT3 is downregulated in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), a main type of renal cancers, but the function of SIRT3 in tumorigenesis and development of ccRCC remains unknown. In this study, we established a SIRT3 overexpressed cell line to explore the changes of proteomics and metabolomics regulated by SIRT3 expression. Both the results of quantitative proteomics, metabolomics and acetylome showed overexpression of SIRT3 increased mitochondrial biogenesis and reversed the mitochondrial dysfunctions in ccRCC. We found SIRT3 could increase the activity of TFAM through modulation of TFAM transcription, degradation and acetylation level. The acetylation of TFAM K154 decreased while TFAM protein expression increased after SIRT3 overexpression. Further study revealed that SIRT3 could bind with TFAM, and decrease the acetylation of TFAM, promoting TFAM activity in mitochondrial biogenesis. Overall, our results present a new mechanism of SIRT3 in regulating mitochondrial functions, and the downregulation of SIRT3 in ccRCC lowers the activity of TFAM, subsequently inhibits the transcription of mitochondrial genes and mitochondrial biogenesis.
