Project description:The crucial role of lipid metabolism disorders and neuronal inflammation has been revealed in many studies of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the pathological connection between lipid droplets and neuronal immune circuits remains poorly understood. We have previously reported a neuronal-specific Arf1-knockout mouse as an ideal lipid metabolism disorder-induced neurodegeneration model. Here, we found that Arf1-deficiency first induced surplus fatty acid synthesis and lipid droplets (LDs) accumulation through the AKT-mTORC1-SREBP1-FASN axis, which further triggered endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mitochondrial stress cascade via calcium flux. The organelle stress cascade further induced mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) to be released into the cytoplasm. Meanwhile, the FASN-driven fatty acid synthesis in the Arf1-deficient neurons also induced lysosomal sphingolipids accumulation that caused dysfunction of autophagy and lysosomes, which enables the neuronal mtDNA to transfer to microglia via extracellular vesicles (EVs) and activates the inflammatory pathways to aggravate neurodegeneration. Furthermore, inhibition of FASN or boosting autophagy in vivo reversed neuronal degeneration disease in Arf1-knockout mice. Our study suggests a unified pathological function of LD in NDs and proves that inhibition of fatty acid synthesis-induced inflammation might be a therapeutic route to neuronal degeneration disease.

Project description:Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations may contribute to aging and age-related disorders. Previously, we created mice expressing a proofreading-deficient version of the mtDNA polymerase gamma (Polg) which accumulate age-related mtDNA mutations and display premature aging. Here we performed microarray gene expression profiling to identify mtDNA mutation-responsive genes in the cochlea of aged mitochondrial mutator mice. Age-related accumulation of mtDNA mutations was associated with transcriptional alternations consistent with reduced inner ear function, mitochondrial dysfunction, neurodegeneration, and reduced cell structural modulation. Hearing assessment and histopathological results confirmed that aged PolgD257A/D257A (D257A) mice exhibited moderate hearing loss and severe cochlear degenerations. Age-related accumulation of mtDNA mutations also resulted in alternations in gene expression consistent with induction of apoptosis, proteolysis, stress response, and reduced DNA repair. TUNEL (Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling) assay confirmed that the cochleae from aged D257A mice showed significantly more TUNEL positive cells compared to wild-type (WT) mice. The levels of cleaved caspase-3 were also found to increase in the cochleae of aged D257A mice. These observations provide evidence that age-related accumulation of mtDNA mutations is associated with apoptotic cell death in aged cochlea. Our results provide the first global view of molecular events associated with mtDNA mutations in postmitotic tissue, and suggest that apoptosis is the major mechanism of mtDNA mediated cell death in the development of age-related hearing disorder. Experiment Overall Design: To determine the effects of age-related accumulation of mtDNA mutations, each WT sample (n = 5) was compared to each D257A sample (n = 5), generating a total of twenty-five pairwise comparisons. Genes with significantly altered expression levels were sorted into gene ontology biological process categories. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression change was called statistically significant when at least one gene was called present in a group, the P value was < 0.0500, FC was > 1.1, and FDR was > 30.00 for identification of mtDNA mutations-induced genes. Experiment Overall Design: Affymetrix standard spike controls were used in all experiments (eukaryotic hybridization control kit). Quality control measures were not used. No replicates were done. Dye swap was not used.

Project description:Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of cellular senescence. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) functions as a damage-associated molecular pattern that activates the innate immune system when released extracellularly. We examined whether senescent cells release mtDNA into the extracellular space and the consequences of this exogenous mtDNA in innate immunity. Both primary senescent cells and tumor cells undergoing therapy-induced senescence release mtDNA into the extracellular space. In vivo cross-species xenograft models using human prostate cancer cells in immunocompromised mice demonstrated the selective uptake of human mtDNA by mouse polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs) within the tumor microenvironment (TME). In vitro trans-well experiments confirmed the uptake of mtDNA by mouse PMN-MDSCs through extracellular vesicles (EVs). Internalized mtDNA enhanced the immunosuppressive activity of PMN-MDSCs via cGAS-STING-NF-_B activation, promoting tumor progression. Mechanistically, mtDNA released from senescent cells was mediated by voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC), and pharmacological inhibition of VDAC reduced extracellular mtDNA levels, reversing PMN-MDSC-driven immunosuppression and improving the efficacy of chemotherapy in prostate cancer models. Thus, inhibiting mtDNA release may enable reprogramming of the immune suppressive microenvironment in patients treated with chemotherapy.

Project description:Synucleinopathies are triggered by the aggregation of α-synuclein (αSyn), leading to progressive neurodegeneration. However, the intracellular mechanism of αSyn aggregation remains unclear. Here we show that assembly of RNA G-quadruplexes (rG4s) form scaffolds for αSyn aggregation, contributing to neurodegeneration. Purified αSyn binds rG4s directly through the N-terminus. rG4 itself undergoes phase separation and assembly by Ca2+, accelerating the sol-gel phase transition of αSyn. In αSyn preformed fibrils (PFF)-treated neurons, rG4s assembly composed of synaptic mRNAs co-aggregates with αSyn upon Ca2+ excess influx into cytoplasm, eliciting synaptic dysfunction. Artificial assembly of rG4s using an optogenetic approach evokes αSyn aggregation and neuronal dysfunction. Administration of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA), a prodrug of protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) that prevents phase separation of rG4s, attenuating αSyn aggregation, neurodegeneration, and progressive motor deficits in PFF-injected synucleinopathy mice. Together, assembly of rG4s due to dysregulation of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis accelerates αSyn phase transition and aggregation may contribute to pathogenesis of synucleinopathies.

Project description:Somatic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations contribute to the pathogenesis of age-related disorders, including myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The accumulation of mitochondria harboring mtDNA mutations in patients with these disorders suggests a failure of normal mitochondrial quality-control systems. The mtDNA-mutator mice acquire somatic mtDNA mutations via a targeted defect in the proofreading function of the mtDNA polymerase, PolgA, and develop macrocyticanemia similar to that of patients with MDS. We observed an unexpected defect in clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria at specific stages during erythroid maturation in hematopoietic cells from aged mtDNA-mutator mice. Mechanistically, aberrant activation of mechanistic target of rapamycin signaling and phosphorylation of uncoordinated 51-like kinase (ULK) 1 in mtDNA-mutator mice resulted in proteasome mediated degradation of ULK1 and inhibition of autophagy in erythroid cells. To directly evaluate the consequence of inhibiting autophagy on mitochondrial function in erythroid cells harboring mtDNA mutations in vivo, we deleted Atg7 from erythroid progenitors of wildtype and mtDNA-mutator mice. Genetic disruption of autophagy did not cause anemia in wild-type mice but accelerated the decline in mitochondrial respiration and development of macrocytic anemia in mtDNA-mutator mice. These findings highlight a pathological feedback loop that explains how dysfunctional mitochondria can escape autophagy-mediated degradation and propagate in cells predisposed to somatic mtDNA mutations, leading to disease. We used microarrays to identify expression profiles and pathways that are differentially activated or suppressed in Ter119+ bone marrow cells isolated from phlebotomized wildtype or Polg mutant mice

Project description:The exact in vivo role for RNase H1 in mammalian mitochondria (mtDNA) has been much debated and we show here that it is essential for processing of RNA primers to provide site-specific initiation of mtDNA replication. Without RNase H1, mtDNA replication is instead initiated at non-canonical sites and becomes impaired. Furthermore, RNase H1 is also needed for replication completion and in its absence linear deleted mtDNA molecules extending between the two origins of mtDNA replication are formed. Finally, we report the first patient with a homozygous pathogenic mutation in the hybrid-binding domain (HBD) of RNase H1 causing impaired mtDNA replication. In contrast to catalytically dead pathological variants of RNase H1, this mutant version has enhanced enzyme activity. This finding shows that the RNase H1 activity must be strictly controlled to allow proper regulation of mtDNA replication.

Project description:Maternal inheritance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is highly conserved in metazoans. While many species eliminate paternal mtDNA during late sperm development to foster maternal inheritance, the regulatory mechanisms governing this process remain elusive. Through a large-scale genetic screen in Drosophila, we identified 47 mutant lines exhibiting substantial retention of mtDNA in mature sperm. We mapped one line to Poldip2, a gene predominantly expressed in the testis. Disruption of Poldip2 led to pronounced mtDNA retention in mature sperm and subsequent paternal transmission to progeny. Further investigation via imaging, biochemical analyses and ChIP assays revealed that POLDIP2 is a mitochondrial matrix protein capable of binding to mtDNA. Moreover, we uncovered that CLPX, a key component of the major mitochondrial protease, binds to POLDIP2 to co-regulate mtDNA elimination in Drosophila spermatids. This study shed light on the mechanisms underlying mtDNA removal during spermatogenesis, underscoring the pivotal role of this process in safeguarding maternal inheritance.
