GLP-1R associates with VAPB and SPHKAP at ERMCSs to regulate β-cell mitochondrial remodelling and function

ABSTRACT: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists (GLP-1RAs) ameliorate mitochondrial health by increasing mitochondrial turnover in metabolically relevant tissues. Mitochondrial adaptation to metabolic stress is crucial to maintain pancreatic -cell function and prevent type 2 diabetes (T2D) progression. While the GLP-1R is well-known to stimulate cAMP production leading to Protein Kinase A (PKA) and Exchange Protein Activated by cyclic AMP 2 (Epac2) activation, there is a lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms linking GLP-1R signalling with mitochondrial and -cell functional adaptation. Here, we present a comprehensive study in -cell lines and primary islets that demonstrates that, following GLP-1RA stimulation, GLP-1R-positive endosomes associate with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane contact site (MCS) tether VAPB at ER-mitochondria MCSs (ERMCSs), where active GLP-1R engages with SPHKAP, an A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) previously linked to T2D and adiposity risk in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The inter-organelle complex formed by endosomal GLP-1R, ER VAPB and SPHKAP triggers a pool of ERMCS-localised cAMP/PKA signalling via the formation of a PKA-RIα biomolecular condensate which leads to changes in mitochondrial contact site and cristae organising system (MICOS) complex phosphorylation, mitochondrial remodelling, and -cell functional adaptation, with important consequences for the regulation of -cell insulin secretion and survival to stress.

Project description:The second messenger cAMP acts via protein kinase A (PKA) to induce apoptosis by mechanisms that are poorly understood. Here, we assessed a role for mitochondria and analyzed gene expression in cAMP/PKA-promoted apoptosis by comparing wild-type (WT) S49 lymphoma cells and the S49 variant, D- (cAMP-deathless), which lacks cAMP-promoted apoptosis but has wild-type levels of PKA activity and cAMP-promoted G1 growth arrest. Treatment of WT, but not D-, S49 cells with 8-CPT-cAMP for 24 h induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, mitochondrial release of cytochrome c and Smac and increase in caspase-3 activity. Gene expression analysis (using Affymetrix 430 2.0 Arrays) revealed that WT and D- cells incubated with 8-CPT-cAMP have similar, but non-identical, extents of cAMP-regulated gene expression at 2h (~800 transcripts) and 6h (~1000 transcripts) (|Fold|>2, P<0.06); by contrast, at 24h ~2500 and ~1100 transcripts were changed in WT and D- cells, respectively. Using an approach that combined regression analysis, clustering and functional annotation to identify transcripts that showed differential expression between WT and D- cells, we found differences in cAMP-mediated regulation of mRNAs involved in transcriptional repression, apoptosis, the cell cycle, RNA splicing, Golgi and lysosomes. The 2 cell lines differed in CREB phosphorylation and expression of the transcriptional inhibitor Icer and in cAMP-regulated expression of genes in the Inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) and Bcl families. The findings indicate that cAMP/PKA-promoted apoptosis of lymphoid cells occurs via mitochondrial-mediated events and imply that such apoptosis involves gene networks in multiple biochemical pathways. Experiment Overall Design: S49 D- cells were treated with 8-CPT-cAMP over the course of 24 hours. Cells were prepared for hybridization to microarrays at times 0-untreated, 2h, 6h, and 24h after treatment with 8-CPT-cAMP. Experimental replicates were as follows n=4 for time 0 and n=3 for 2, 6, and 24h post treatment.
