Maternal aging affects oocyte resilience to carbonyl cyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone -induced mitochondrial dysfunction in cows.

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial quality control is important for maintaining cellular and oocyte viability. In addition, aging affects mitochondrial quality in many cell types. In the present study, we examined how aging affects oocyte mitochondrial biogenesis and degeneration in response to induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Cumulus oocyte complexes were harvested from the ovaries of young (21?45 months) and aged (?120 months) cows and treated for 2 hours with 10 ?M carbonyl cyanide-m- chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), or a vehicle control, after which cumulus oocyte complexes were subjected to in vitro fertilization and culture. CCCP treatment reduced ATP content and increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in the oocytes of both young and aged cows. When CCCP-treated cumulus oocyte complexes were subsequently cultured for 19 hours and/or subjected to fertilization, high ROS levels in oocytes and a low rate of blastocyst development was observed in oocytes derived from aged cows. In addition, we observed differential responses in mitochondrial biogenesis to CCCP treatment between young and aged cows. CCCP treatment enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis concomitant with upregulation of SIRT1 expression in oocytes of young, but not aged, cows. In conclusion, aging affects mitochondrial quality control and recuperation of oocytes following CCCP-induced mitochondrial dysfunction.

Project description:Experimental evolution of Escherichia coli K-12 with benzoate, a partial uncoupler of the proton motive force (PMF), selects for mutations that decrease antibiotic resistance. We conducted experimental evolution in the presence of carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), a strong uncoupler. Cultures were serially diluted daily 1:100 in LBK medium containing 20 to 150?µM CCCP buffered at pH 6.5 or at pH 8.0. After 1,000 generations, the populations tolerated up to 150?µM CCCP. Sequenced isolates had mutations in mprA (emrR), which downregulates the EmrAB-TolC pump that exports CCCP. A mprA::kanR deletion conferred growth at 60 ?M CCCP, though not at the higher levels resisted by evolved strains (150?µM). Some mprA mutant strains also had point mutations affecting emrA, but deletion of emrA abolished the CCCP resistance. Thus, CCCP-evolved isolates contained additional adaptations. One isolate lacked emrA or mprA mutations but had mutations in cecR (ybiH), whose product upregulates drug pumps YbhG and YbhFSR, and in gadE, which upregulates the multidrug pump MdtEF. A cecR::kanR deletion conferred partial resistance to CCCP. Other multidrug efflux genes that had mutations included ybhR and acrAB The acrB isolate was sensitive to the AcrAB substrates chloramphenicol and tetracycline. Other mutant genes in CCCP-evolved strains include rng (RNase G) and cyaA (adenylate cyclase). Overall, experimental evolution revealed a CCCP-dependent fitness advantage for mutations increasing CCCP efflux via EmrA and for mutations that may deactivate proton-driven pumps for drugs not present (cecR, gadE, acrAB, and ybhR). These results are consistent with our previous report of drug sensitivity associated with evolved benzoate tolerance.IMPORTANCE The genetic responses of bacteria to depletion of proton motive force (PMF), and their effects on drug resistance, are poorly understood. PMF drives export of many antibiotics, but the energy cost may decrease fitness when antibiotics are absent. Our evolution experiment reveals genetic mechanisms of adaptation to the PMF uncoupler CCCP, including selection for increased CCCP efflux but also against the expression of PMF-driven pumps for drugs not present. The results have implications for our understanding of the gut microbiome, which experiences high levels of organic acids that decrease PMF.
