Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A promotes mitochondrial fission by enhancing MFF succinylation in ovarian cancer

ABSTRACT: Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that are important for cell growth and proliferation. Dysregulated mitochondrial dynamics are highly associated with the initiation and progression of various cancers, including ovarian cancer. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying mitochondrial dynamics is still not fully understood. Previously, our study showed that carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) is highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells and promotes the development of ovarian cancer. Here, we find that CPT1A regulates mitochondrial dynamics and promotes mitochondrial fission in ovarian cancer cells. Our study futher shows that CPT1A regulates mitochondrial fission and function through mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) to promote the growth and proliferation of ovarian cancer cells. Mechanistically, we show that CPT1A promotes succinylation of MFF at lysine 302 (K302), which protects against Parkin-mediated ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation of MFF. Finally, the study shows that MFF is highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells and that high MFF expression is associated with poor prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer. MFF inhibition significantly inhibits the progression of ovarian cancer in vivo. Overall, CPT1A regulates mitochondrial dynamics through MFF succinylation to promote the development of ovarian cancer. Moreover, our findings suggest that MFF is a potential therapeutic target for ovarian cancer.

Project description:Mitochondria undergo continuous cycles of fission and fusion to promote inheritance, regulate quality control, and mitigate organelle stress. More recently, this process of mitochondrial dynamics has been demonstrated to be highly sensitive to nutrient supply, ultimately conferring bioenergetic plasticity to the organelle. However, whether regulators of mitochondrial dynamics play a causative role in nutrient regulation remains unclear. In this study, we generated a cellular loss-of-function model for dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), the primary regulator of outer membrane mitochondrial fission. Loss of DRP1 (shDRP1) resulted in extensive ultrastructural and functional remodeling of mitochondria, characterized by pleomorphic enlargement, increased electron density of the matrix, and defective NADH and succinate oxidation. Despite increased mitochondrial size and volume, shDRP1 cells exhibited reduced cellular glucose uptake and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. Untargeted transcriptomic profiling revealed severe downregulation of genes required for cellular and mitochondrial calcium homeostasis, inhibition of ATP-stimulated calcium flux, and impaired substrate oxidation stimulated by calcium levels. The insights obtained herein suggest that DRP1 regulates fatty acid oxidation by altering whole-cell and mitochondrial calcium dynamics. These findings are relevant to the targetability of mitochondrial fission and have clinical relevance in the identification of treatments for fission-related pathologies such as hereditary neuropathies, inborn errors in metabolism, cancer, and chronic diseases.

Project description:Mitochondrial fusion and fission, which are strongly related to normal mitochondrial function, are referred to as mitochondrial dynamics. Mitochondrial fusion defects in the liver cause a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis-like phenotype and liver cancer. However, whether mitochondrial fission defect directly impair liver function and stimulate liver disease progression, too, is unclear. Dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) is a key factor controlling mitochondrial fission. We hypothesized that DRP1 defects are a causal factor directly involved in liver disease development and stimulate liver disease progression. Drp1 defects directly promoted endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, hepatocyte death, and subsequently induced infiltration of inflammatory macrophages. Drp1 deletion increased the expression of numerous genes involved in the immune response and DNA damage in Drp1LiKO mouse primary hepatocytes. We administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to liver-specific Drp1-knockout (Drp1LiKO) mice and observed an increased inflammatory cytokine expression in the liver and serum caused by exaggerated ER stress and enhanced inflammasome activation. This study indicates that Drp1 defect-induced mitochondrial dynamics dysfunction directly regulates the fate and function of hepatocytes and enhances LPS-induced acute liver injury in vivo.

FDXR Drives Primary and Endocrine Resistant Tumor Cell Growth in ER+ Breast Cancer via CPT1A-Mediated Fatty Acid Oxidation

Project description:The majority of breast cancers (BCs) harboring estrogen receptor (ER) have shown endocrine resistance. Our previous study has demonstrated that ferredoxin reductase (FDXR) promotes mitochondrial function and ER+ breast tumorigenesis. Here, integrative analyses of targeted metabolomics assay and gene expression profiling show that FDXR potentiates fatty acid oxidation (FAO) through positive regulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) expression. Treatment with ER antagonist (tamoxifen) or degrader (fulvestrant) leads to increased expression of FDXR and CPT1A. In line with this finding, we find that FDXR-CPT1A-FAO axis is required for primary and endocrine resistant breast cancer cell growth. Therapeutically,combining endocrine therapy with FAO inhibitor synergistically reduces primary and endocrine resistant breast cancer cell growth, thus providing a potential combinatory treatment for ER+ breast cancer. We used microarrays to be able to elucidate to some extent the gene regulatory mechanisms of FDXR regulating breast cancer metabolism.

CPT1A induction following epigenetic perturbation promotes MAVS palmitoylation and activation to potentiate antitumor immunity

Project description:argeting epigenetic regulators to potentiate anti-PD-1 immunotherapy converges on the activation of type I interferon (IFN-I) response, mimicking cellular response to viral infection, but how its strength and duration are regulated to impact combination therapy efficacy remains largely unknown. Here, we show that mitochondrial CPT1A downregulation following viral infection restrains, while its induction by epigenetic perturbations sustains, a double-stranded RNA-activated IFN-I response. Mechanistically, CPT1A recruits the endoplasmic reticulum-localized ZDHHC4 to catalyze MAVS Cys79-palmitoylation, which promotes MAVS stabilization and activation by inhibiting K48- but facilitating K63-linked ubiquitination. Further elevation of CPT1A incrementally increases MAVS palmitoylation and amplifies the IFN-I response, which enhances control of viral infection and epigenetic perturbation-induced antitumor immunity. Moreover, CPT1A chemical inducers augment the therapeutic effect of combined epigenetic treatment with PD-1 blockade in refractory tumors. Our study identifies CPT1A as a stabilizer of MAVS activation, and its link to epigenetic perturbation can be exploited for cancer immunotherapy.

pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 regulate mitochondrial dynamics

Project description:Mitochondrial dynamics provides cells with the flexibility required to adapt and respond to mitochondrial toxins, yet the mechanisms underpinning the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics machinery by these stimuli is poorly understood. Here we show that pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4) is required for cells to undergo rapid mitochondrial fragmentation when challenged with toxins. Moreover, PDK4 overexpression was sufficient to promote mitochondrial fission even in the absence of stress. Phosphoproteomic screen for PDK4 substrates identified cytoplasmic GTPase, Septin 2 (SEPT2), as the key effector molecule that acts as a receptor for DRP1 to promote mitochondrial fission. PDK4-mediated mitochondrial reshaping limits mitochondrial bioenergetics, supports cancer cell growth and revealed PDK4-SEPT2-DRP1 axis as a regulator of mitochondrial dynamics at the interface between cellular bioenergetics and mitochondrial dynamics

Mitochondrial dynamics define muscle fiber type by modulating cellular metabolism pathways

Project description:Skeletal muscle is highly developed after birth, consisting of glycolytic fast- and oxidative slow-twitch fibers; however, the mechanisms of fiber type-specific differentiation are poorly understood. Here, we found an unexpected role for mitochondrial fission in the differentiation of fast-twitch oxidative fibers. Depletion of the mitochondrial fission factor dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) in mouse skeletal muscle and cultured myotubes resulted in the specific reduction of fast-twitch muscle fibers independently of respiratory function. Altered mitochondrial fission caused the activation of the Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway via the mitochondrial accumulation of mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2), and rapamycin administration rescued the reduction of fast-twitch fibers in vivo and in vitro. Under Akt/mTOR activation, the mitochondria-related cytokine growth differentiation factor-15 was upregulated, which repressed fast-twitch fiber differentiation. Our findings reveal a novel role for mitochondrial dynamics in the activation of mTORC2 on mitochondria, resulting in the differentiation of muscle fibers.

Modulating mitofusins to control mitochondrial function and signaling

Project description:Purpose: Mitofusin regulate the fusion of the outer mitochondrial membrane. MASM7 is an activator of mitofusins, which promotes mitochondrial fusion. Whereas, MFI8 is an inhibitor of mitofusins, which inhibits mitochondrial fusion, and subsequently promotes mitochondrial fission. The goal of this study is to identify set of genes and pathways that are up-regulated upon inhibition and activation of mitochondrial fusion.

A MYC-driven change in mitochondrial dynamics limits stem cell properties of mammary epithelial cells (ChIP-seq)

Project description:In several developmental lineages, an increase in expression of the MYC proto-oncogene drives the transition from quiescent stem cells to transit amplifying cells. The mechanism by which MYC restricts self-renewal of adult stem cells is unknown. Here, we show that MYC activates a stereotypic transcriptional program of genes involved in protein translation and mitochondrial biogenesis in mammary epithelial cells and indirectly inhibits the YAP/TAZ co-activators that are essential for mammary stem cell self-renewal. We identify a phospholipase of the mitochondrial outer membrane, PLD6, as the mediator of MYC activity. PLD6 mediates a change in the mitochondrial fusion/fission balance that promotes nuclear export of YAP/TAZ in a LATS- and RHO-independent manner. Mouse models and human pathological data confirm that MYC suppresses YAP/TAZ activity in mammary tumors. PLD6 is also required for glutaminolysis, arguing that MYC-dependent changes in mitochondrial dynamics balance cellular energy metabolism with the self-renewal potential of adult stem cells. ChIP-Seq experiments for MYC-HA (HA-IP) performed in IMEC primary breast epithelial cells. Input-samples were sequenced as controlls.

Trafficking of Ectopic ATP Synthase via Mitochondrial Fission

Project description:Ectopic ATP synthase is a functional onco-protein increases cell proliferation when transported to plasma membrane of cancer cells. Our previous study performed large scale gene silencing screening indicated ER and mitochondrial transport pathways may lead to ectopic ATP synthase expression. Silencing dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitofusin-1 (Mfn1) and Parkin affected ectopic ATP synthases expression. However, the underlying trafficking mechanism is poorly understood. Here, we analyzed our membrane and mitochondrial proteome of lung cancer A549 cells and found that both nuclear-encoded ATP synthase subunits and mitochondrial-encoded components-ATP6 translocated to cell surface, indicating that ATP synthase subunits assembled in mitochondria. Furthermore, serum starvation enhanced ATP synthase translocation to plasma membrane, Mdivi-1, a chemical inhibitor of the mitochondrial fission protein Drp1, rescued the phenomena. Additionally, image quantification of mitochondria, showing that mitochondrial fission preference cells expressed more eATP synthase. Therefore, we proposed that eATP synthase trafficking may be related to mitochondrial dynamics. Additionally, ICC and flow cytometry revealed the expression of a critical transcription factor associated with high-risk neuroblastoma, MYCN, correlated with eATP synthase expression. To better understand whether MYCN mediated mitochondrial fission and affected ATP synthase trafficking, we first analyzed MYCN ChIP-sequencing data and found Drp1, Mfns and Parkin possessed the consensus DNA-binding motif of MYCN. Further high-resolution image analysis showed higher mitochondrial fission and eATP synthase expression in MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma. Last, silencing MYCN reduced the fission level by detecting DRP1. In summary, we suggest that trafficking of ectopic ATP synthase may via mitochondrial dynamics.
