ATM mediates spermidine-induced mitophagy via PINK1 and Parkin regulation in human fibroblasts.

ABSTRACT: The ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated) protein has recently been proposed to play critical roles in the response to mitochondrial dysfunction by initiating mitophagy. Here, we have used ATM-proficient GM00637 cells and ATM-deficient GM05849 cells to investigate the mitophagic effect of spermidine and to elucidate the role of ATM in spermdine-induced mitophagy. Our results indicate that spermidine induces mitophagy by eliciting mitochondrial depolarization, which triggers the formation of mitophagosomes and mitolysosomes, thereby promoting the accumulation of PINK1 and translocation of Parkin to damaged mitochondria, finally leading to the decreased mitochondrial mass in GM00637 cells. However, in GM05849 cells or GM00637 cells pretreated with the ATM kinase inhibitor KU55933, the expression of full-length PINK1 and the translocation of Parkin are blocked, and the colocalization of Parkin with either LC3 or PINK1 is disrupted. These results suggest that ATM drives the initiation of the mitophagic cascade. Our study demonstrates that spermidine induces mitophagy through ATM-dependent activation of the PINK1/Parkin pathway. These findings underscore the importance of a mitophagy regulatory network of ATM and PINK1/Parkin and elucidate a novel mechanism by which ATM influences spermidine-induced mitophagy.

Project description:BackgroundMechanical ventilation (MV) often leads to ventilation-induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD). Although the development of this disorder had been linked to oxidative stress, mitochondrial energy deficiency, autophagy activation, and apoptosis in the diaphragm, it remains unclear whether the activation of mitophagy can induce VIDD. With our research, our endeavor is to uncover whether PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-mediated mitophagy affects the MV-caused diaphragmatic dysfunction.MethodsSprague-Dawley rats were subjected to MV treatment for 6 h (MV-6h), 12 h (MV-12h), or 24 h (MV-24h). Post MV, the diaphragm muscle compound action potential (CMAP) and cross-sectional areas (CSAs) of the diaphragm of these rats were measured. The levels of proteins of interest were examined to assess muscle health, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy in the diaphragm. The co-localization of PINK1 with the mitochondrial protein marker tom20 was examined, as well as transmission electron microscopy analysis to detect changes in diaphragm mitochondrial ultrastructure.ResultsMV-12h and MV-24h treatments resulted in a decrease in CSA of diaphragm and CMAP amplitude. In addition, the expressions of F-box (MFAbx), muscle-specific ring finger 1 (MURF1), PINK1, and p62 were elevated in rats treated with MV for 12 h and 24 h, while mfn2 expression was reduced. Rats following MV-24h treatment displayed an increase in mitochondrial dynamic protein (Drp1) and Parkin expression and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3/1 (LC3II/I) ratio. Moreover, decreased SOD and GSH activity and membrane potential were observed after MV-12h and MV-24h treatment, while H2O2 activity increased after MV-24h treatment. In addition, a strong co-localization between PINK1 and tom20 was identified.ConclusionThese results reveal that MV leads to various changes in mitochondrial dynamics and significantly increases the mitophagy levels, which subsequently cause the variation in diaphragmatic function and muscle atrophy, indicating that mitophagy could be one of the possible mechanisms by which MV induces diaphragmatic dysfunction.The reviews of this paper are available via the supplemental material section.

Project description:MitoNEET, a mitochondrial outer membrane protein containing the Asn-Glu-Glu-Thr (NEET) sequence, controls the formation of intermitochondrial junctions and confers autophagy resistance. Moreover, mitoNEET as a mitochondrial substrate undergoes ubiquitination by activated Parkin during the initiation of mitophagy. Therefore, mitoNEET is linked to the regulation of autophagy and mitophagy. Mitophagy is the selective removal of the damaged or unnecessary mitochondria, which is crucial to sustaining mitochondrial quality control. In numerous human diseases, the accumulation of damaged mitochondria by impaired mitophagy has been observed. However, the therapeutic strategy targeting of mitoNEET as a mitophagy-enhancing mediator requires further research. Herein, we confirmed that mitophagy is indeed activated by mitoNEET inhibition. CCCP (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone), which leads to mitochondrial depolarization, induces mitochondrial dysfunction and superoxide production. This, in turn, contributes to the induction of mitophagy; mitoNEET protein levels were initially increased before an increase in LC3-Ⅱ protein following CCCP treatment. Pharmacological inhibition of mitoNEET using mitoNEET Ligand-1 (NL-1) promoted accumulation of Pink1 and Parkin, which are mitophagy-associated proteins, and activation of mitochondria-lysosome crosstalk, in comparison to CCCP alone. Inhibition of mitoNEET using NL-1, or mitoNEET shRNA transfected into RAW264.7 cells, abrogated CCCP-induced ROS and mitochondrial cell death; additionally, it activated the expression of PGC-1α and SOD2, regulators of oxidative metabolism. In particular, the increase in PGC-1α, which is a major regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis, promotes mitochondrial quality control. These results indicated that mitoNEET is a potential therapeutic target in numerous human diseases to enhance mitophagy and protect cells by maintaining a network of healthy mitochondria.

Project description:Mitophagy alleviates neuronal damage after cerebral ischemia by selectively removing dysfunctional mitochondria. Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-mediated mitophagy is the most well-known type of mitophagy. However, little is known about the role of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in ischemic tolerance induced by hypoxic postconditioning (HPC) with 8% O2 against transient global cerebral ischemia (tGCI). Hence, we aimed to test the hypothesis that HPC-mediated PINK1/Parkin-induced mitochondrial ubiquitination and promotes mitophagy, thus exerting neuroprotection in the hippocampal CA1 subregion against tGCI. We found that mitochondrial clearance was disturbed at the late phase of reperfusion after tGCI, which was reversed by HPC, as evidenced by the reduction of the translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20 homologs (TOMM20), translocase of inner mitochondrial membrane 23 (TIMM23) and heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) in CA1 after HPC. In addition, HPC further increased the ratio of LC3II/I in mitochondrial fraction and promoted the formation of mitophagosomes in CA1 neurons after tGCI. The administration of lysosome inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) intraperitoneally or mitophagy inhibitor (Mdivi-1) intracerebroventricularly abrogated HPC-induced mitochondrial turnover and neuroprotection in CA1 after tGCI. We also found that HPC activated PINK1/Parkin pathway after tGCI, as shown by the augment of mitochondrial PINK1 and Parkin and the promotion of mitochondrial ubiquitination in CA1. In addition, PINK1 or Parkin knockdown with small-interfering RNA (siRNA) suppressed the activation of PINK1/Parkin pathway and hampered mitochondrial clearance and attenuated neuroprotection induced by HPC, whereas PINK1 overexpression promoted PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy and ameliorated neuronal damage in CA1 after tGCI. Taken together, the new finding in this study is that HPC-induced neuroprotection against tGCI through promoting mitophagy mediated by PINK1/Parkin-dependent pathway.
