Project description:Reversible infantile respiratory chain deficiency (RIRCD) is a rare mitochondrial myopathy leading to severe metabolic disturbances in infants, which recover spontaneously after 6 months of age. RIRCD is associated with the homoplasmic m.14674T>C mitochondrial DNA mutation, however only ~1/100 carriers develop the disease. We studied 27 affected and 15 unaffected individuals from 19 families and found additional heterozygous mutations in nuclear genes interacting with mt-tRNAGlu including EARS2 and TRMU in the majority of affected individuals, but not in healthy carriers of m.14674T>C, supporting a digenic inheritance. The spontaneous recovery in infants with digenic mutations is modulated by changes in amino acid availability in a multi-step process. First, the integrated stress-response associated with increased FGF21 and GDF15 expression enhances catabolism via β-oxidation and the TCA cycle increasing the availability of amino acids. In the second phase mitochondrial biogenesis increases via mTOR activation, leading to improved mitochondrial translation and recovery. Similar mechanisms may explain the variable penetrance and tissue specificity of other mtDNA mutations and highlight the potential role of amino acids in improving mitochondrial disease.

Project description:The majority (72%) of adolescents with myelodysplastic syndrome and monosomy 7 carry an underlying GATA2 deficiency. Nowadays, chemotherapy and allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are the only cure, pointing out the urgent need to develop reliable predictive tools. Familial cases carrying the same mutation in the GATA2 gene develop the disease at different age. The trigger of the disease is still unknown. Therefore, it is needed to understand the genetic mechanisms (mutations) and epigenetic mechanism, such as, DNA methylation, a cellular mechanism to control gene expression. Abnormal DNA methylation has been linked to several adverse outcomes, including human diseases. In this study, we deeply characterized 20 Spanish GATA2 deficient patients; study the presence of secondary mutations, clinical phenotype and DNA methylation. We have found that the most frequent secondary mutations are in STAG2 and ASXL1 genes, detected in 30% and 20% of the patients, respectively, a similar ratio has been described in a bigger cohort, showing that our 20-patient cohort is representative of the GATA2 deficiency scenario. For the first time, we found a specific hypermethylated signature in GATA2 patients, opening a novel point of view in the GATA2-patient diagnostic and facilitating the risk estimation of themselves. Furthermore, whether the methylation profiling is accurate enough, it will be useful to predict the onset of the disease progression.

Project description:In this study, we report 5 patients with heterogeneous phenotypes and biochemical evidence of respiratory chain (RC) deficiency; however, the molecular diagnosis is not mitochondrial disease.The reported patients were identified from a cohort of 60 patients in whom RC enzyme deficiency suggested mitochondrial disease and underwent whole-exome sequencing.Five patients had disease-causing variants in nonmitochondrial disease genes ORAI1, CAPN3, COLQ, EXOSC8, and ANO10, which would have been missed on targeted next-generation panels or on MitoExome analysis.Our data demonstrate that RC abnormalities may be secondary to various cellular processes, including calcium metabolism, neuromuscular transmission, and abnormal messenger RNA degradation.

Project description:Mitochondria are key organelles for cellular metabolism, and regulate several processes including cell death and macroautophagy/autophagy. Here, we show that mitochondrial respiratory chain (RC) deficiency deactivates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK, a key regulator of energy homeostasis) signaling in tissue and in cultured cells. The deactivation of AMPK in RC-deficiency is due to increased expression of the AMPK-inhibiting protein FLCN (folliculin). AMPK is found to be necessary for basal lysosomal function, and AMPK deactivation in RC-deficiency inhibits lysosomal function by decreasing the activity of the lysosomal Ca2+ channel MCOLN1 (mucolipin 1). MCOLN1 is regulated by phosphoinositide kinase PIKFYVE and its product PtdIns(3,5)P2, which is also decreased in RC-deficiency. Notably, reactivation of AMPK, in a PIKFYVE-dependent manner, or of MCOLN1 in RC-deficient cells, restores lysosomal hydrolytic capacity. Building on these data and the literature, we propose that downregulation of the AMPK-PIKFYVE-PtdIns(3,5)P2-MCOLN1 pathway causes lysosomal Ca2+ accumulation and impaired lysosomal catabolism. Besides unveiling a novel role of AMPK in lysosomal function, this study points to the mechanism that links mitochondrial malfunction to impaired lysosomal catabolism, underscoring the importance of AMPK and the complexity of organelle cross-talk in the regulation of cellular homeostasis.

Project description:A fuller study of UV-induced biological effects lies beyond the scope of this paper. I will focus on the genetic interaction of cells irradiated by UV. Accordingly, in respect to genomic, the regulation of the gene expressions in cells represents how they response to the stress and repair themselves. In the past, Northern Blot has been used to detect the expression level of a few genes in one experiment. Thus, this assay is always limited to a small scope of a huge unknown network of gene expression. However, to investigate gene expression networks made of thousands of genes, a powerful tool must be implemented. As anticipated, the interactions between regulated genes in UV irradiation time-course experiment can be analyzed by cDNA microarray analysis with experimental loop design. This study provides a platform to investigate the gene networks regulated by UV irradiation. Keywords: UV, cDNA microarray, mitochondria respiratory chain, ROS, carcinogenesis

Our transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of patient muscle suggests a stepwise mechanism where first, the integrated stress response associated with increased FGF21 and GDF15 expression enhances the metabolism modulated by serine biosynthesis, one carbon metabolism, TCA lipid oxidation and amino acid availability, while in the second step mTOR activation leads to increased mitochondrial biogenesis. Our data suggest that the spontaneous recovery in infants with digenic mutations may be modulated by the above described changes. Similar mechanisms may explain the variable penetrance and tissue specificity of other mtDNA mutations and highlight the potential role of amino acids in improving mitochondrial disease.
