β-RA reduces DMQ/CoQ ratio and recues the encephalopathic phenotype in Coq9R239X mice

ABSTRACT: Coenzyme Q (CoQ) deficiency has been associated to primary defects in the CoQ biosynthetic pathway or to secondary events. In some cases, the exogenous CoQ supplementation has limited efficacy. In the Coq9R239X mouse model of fatal mitochondrial encephalopathy due to CoQ deficiency, we have tested the therapeutic potential of β-Resorcylic Acid (β-RA), a structural analog of the CoQ precursor 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and the anti-inflammatory salicylic acid. β-RA noticeably rescued the phenotypic, morphological and histopathological signs of the encephalopathy, leading to a significant increase in the survival. Those effects were due to the decrease of the levels of demethoxyubiquinone-9 (DMQ9) and the increase of mitochondrial bioenergetics in peripheral tissues. However, neither CoQ biosynthesis and mitochondrial function changed in the brain after the therapy, suggesting that some endocrine interactions may induce the reduction of the astrogliosis, spongiosis and the secondary down-regulation of astrocytes-related neuroinflammatory genes. Because the therapeutic outcomes of β-RA administration were superior to those after CoQ10 supplementation, its use in the clinic should be considered in CoQ deficiencies.

Identification of disease biomarkers and potential endocrine factors in CoQ deficiency

Project description:4-Hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HB) is the natural precursor for CoQ biosynthesis. Hydroxybenzoic acids derivatives (HBAs) have been recently used for the experimental treatment of primary CoQ deficiency. However, the mechanisms of these therapeutic effects remain obscure. In this study, we performed an analysis in plasma to evaluate the effect of supplementation with-resorcylic acid (-RA) or vanillic acid (VA), two HBAs potentially useful for the treatment of Coenzyme Q (CoQ) deficiencies, in an animal model of mitochondrial encephalopathy due to CoQ deficiency. The results help in the identification of potential biomarkers and/or endocrine factors that contribute to the pathophysiologic characteristics of the disease and its response to treatments, supporting important scientific and medical impacts for the use of -RA or VA in the treatment of CoQ deficiency.

Nonfunctional coq10 mutants maintain the ERMES complex and reveal true phenotypes associated with the loss of the coenzyme Q chaperone protein Coq10

Project description:Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is a redox-active lipid molecule that acts as an electron carrier in the mitochondrial electron transport chain. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, CoQ is synthesized in the mitochondrial matrix by a multi-subunit protein-lipid complex termed the CoQ synthome, the spatial positioning of which is coordinated by the Endoplasmic Reticulum-Mitochondria Encounter Structure (ERMES). The MDM12 gene encoding the cytosolic subunit of ERMES, MDM12, is co-expressed with COQ10, which encodes the putative CoQ chaperone Coq10, via a shared bidirectional promoter. Deletion of COQ10 results in respiratory deficiency, impaired CoQ biosynthesis, and reduced spatial coordination between ERMES and the CoQ Synthome. While Coq10 protein content is maintained upon deletion of MDM12, we show that deletion of COQ10 by replacement with a HIS3 marker results in diminished Mdm12 protein content. Since deletion of individual ERMES subunits prevents ERMES formation, we asked whether some or all of the phenotypes associated with COQ10 deletion result from ERMES dysfunction. To identify the phenotypes resulting solely due to the loss of Coq10, we constructed strains expressing a functionally impaired (coq10-L96S) or truncated (coq10-R147*) Coq10 isoform using CRISPR-Cas9. We show that both coq10 mutants preserve Mdm12 protein content and exhibit impaired respiratory capacity like the coq10Δ mutant, indicating that Coq10’s function is vital for respiration regardless of ERMES integrity. Moreover, the maintenance of CoQ synthome stability and efficient CoQ biosynthesis observed for the coq10-R147* mutant suggests these deleterious phenotypes in the coq10Δ mutant result from ERMES disruption. Overall, this study clarifies the role of Coq10 in modulating CoQ biosynthesis.

Mouse mitochondrial proteome in the kidney and the brain

Project description:Hydroxybenzoic acids derivatives (HBAs) are natural phenolic compounds that are being used for the experimental treatment of primary CoQ deficiency. Some of these compounds are also able to reduce the animals body weight. However, the mechanisms of these therapeutic effects remain obscure. In this study, we used an analysis of the mitochondrial proteome to evaluate the effect of a high dose of-resorcylic acid (-RA), an HBA potentially useful for the treatment of Coenzyme Q (CoQ) deficiencies, in wild-type animals. The results highlight novel molecular mechanisms of HBAs and provide a translational perspective for the use the -RA in the treatment of CoQ deficiencies, overweight and obesity.

Gene expression in the mitochondrial syndrome of coenzyme Q deficiency

Project description:Coenzyme Q10 deficiency syndrome includes a clinically heterogeneous group of mitochondrial diseases characterized by low content of CoQ10 in tissues. The only currently available treatment is supplementation with CoQ10, which improves the clinical phenotype in some patients but does not reverse established damage. Incubation with CoQ10 restored respiration and apoptotic pathways but did not affect lipid metabolism, cell growth, and undifferentiated phenotype presented by CoQ10 deficient cells. We conclude that the mitochondrial dysfunction caused byCoQ10 deficiency induces a stable survival adaptation of somatic cells from patients, thus explaining their incomplete recovery after treatment.

Coenzyme Q regulates UCP1 expression and thermogenesis through the integrated stress responses

Project description:Coenzyme Q is an essential component of mitochondrial function and required for thermogenic activity in brown adipose tissues (BAT). BAT CoQ deficiency (50-75%) by genetic or pharmacological means does not interfere with basal or maximal mitochondrial respiration in brown adipocytes but increases mitochondrial oxidants and induces UPRmt, ISR, and repression of UCP1 expression. ATF4, the master regulator of ISR, is required for UCP1 suppression in BAT CoQ deficiency. In animals, BAT CoQ deficiency causes cold intolerance but activates compensatory thermogenic mechanisms in BAT and other tissues via greatly induced BAT FGF21 expression resulting in paradoxically upregulated whole-body respiration rates and protection from obesity at room temperature and thermoneutrality. BAT-specific loss of either ATF4 or FGF21 abolishes these metabolic benefits demonstrating a central role for CoQ in the modulation of whole-body energy expenditure and thus for the etiology of primary and secondary CoQ deficiencies.

Human adipose insulin resistance

Project description:Adipocytes play a major role in whole body fuel homeostasis. Integrated proteomic analysis of adipose from insulin resistant versus healthy humans or mice or in 3T3-L1 adipocytes revealed defects in the mevalonate/coenzyme Q (CoQ) biosynthesis pathway as a unifying feature of adipocyte insulin resistance. CoQ was decreased selectively in mitochondria in all insulin resistant conditions and this was associated with a selective increase in mitochondrial oxidative stress. CoQ supplementation lowered mitochondrial oxidative stress and reversed insulin resistance in vitro and in vivo. Decreasing mitochondrial CoQ by genetic or pharmacological means caused insulin resistance by increasing mitochondrial oxidants from complex II. Our data suggest that loss of mitochondrial CoQ is a proximal driver of mitochondrial oxidative stress and insulin resistance. These findings may explain why statin use is associated with insulin resistance, and suggest that mitochondrial CoQ may be an effective therapeutic target for treating insulin resistance in humans.

Common gene expression profile in the mitochondrial syndrome of coenzyme Q deficiency

Project description:Coenzyme Q10 deficiency syndrome includes a clinically heterogeneous group of mitochondrial diseases characterized by low content of CoQ10 in tissues. The only currently available treatment is supplementation with CoQ10, which improves the clinical phenotype in some patients but does not reverse established damage. We analyzed the transcriptome profiles of fibroblasts from different patients irrespective of the genetic origin of the disease. These cells showed a survival genetic profile apt at maintaining growth and undifferentiated phenotype, promoting anti-apoptotic pathways, and favoring bioenergetics supported by glycolysis and low lipid metabolism. WE conclude that the mitochondrial dysfunction caused byCoQ10 deficiency induces a stable survival adaptation of somatic cells from patients. All samples in triplicate. We compare the gene expresion of human derman fibroblast to fibroblast from 4 different patient diagnosed with the human syndrome of coenzyme Q10 deficiency.

Probucol ameliorates renal and metabolic sequelae of primary CoQ deficiency in Pdss2 mutant mice

Project description:To discern whether the same transcriptional signature of mitochondrial dysfunction previously reported in B6.Alb/cre,Pdss2loxP/loxP liver-conditional knockout mice (Peng, Falk et al. PLoS Genetics, 2008 [PMID 18437205]) was present regardless of Pdss2 mutation type, as well as to assess whether pharmacologic therapies modulate expression of particular pathways, genome-wide transcriptional profiling was performed in liver from B6.Pdss2(kd/kd) missense mutant mice on standard chow or supplemented long-term with either probucol or CoQ10. For analysis of lifelong probucol and CoQ10 supplementation effects in B6.Pdss2(kd/kd) missense mutant mice, total RNA was isolated from the livers of B6 mice and from Pdss2(kd/kd) missense mutant mice fed a normal diet, or a diet supplemented with Probucol or CoQ10. Total RNA was individually hybridized to 20 total Illumina Mouse WG-6 v2.0 arrays, which included 5 biological replicates from each of the 4 groupings: untreated B6.Pdss2(kd/kd) missense mutant mice, probucol-treated B6.Pdss2(kd/kd) mice, CoQ10-treated B6.Pdss2(kd/kd) mice, and untreated B6 wild-type mice.
