Lipolysis-derived Lipids Determine Autophagy Initiation during Fasting

ABSTRACT: For survival, autophagy is a crucial intracellular self-degradation process to provide energy sources, helping adapt to nutrient deprivation. Although nutrient availability is a key determinant of autophagy initiation, it remains elusive underlying mechanism(s) of perceiving nutritional scarcity by which cells timely turn on autophagy as the last self-destructive process for energy supply. Here, we showed that PKA-dependent lipolysis can block the initiation of futile autophagy during short-term nutritional deprivation by repressing AMPK. Using Raman microscopy imaging and metabolomics, we found that autophagy occurred by reduction in available free fatty acids (FFAs) for energy sources. By modulating genes involved in lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation, we found that the use of lipolysis-derived FFAs precedes autophagy initiation. The dysregulated autophagy suppression during short-term fasting decreased motility and lifespan extension of worms. Taken together, these data suggest that PKA is a pivotal factor to orchestrate sophisticated catabolic pathways, preferring the use of PKA-mediated lipolytic products to repress futile autophagic degradation during short-term fasting through AMPK inhibition.

Project description:Sonntag2012 - mTOR model - IRS dependent regulation of AMPK by insulin TSC1-TSC2 complex has two states: 1) active (TSC1_TSC2_pS1387), regulated by AMPK_pT172; 2) inactive (TSC1_TSC2_pT1462) regulated by Akt_pT308. Particularly, mTORC1 is inhibited by TSC1_TSC2 in active state. AMPK is activated at T172 by the species IRS1_p activated by the insulin receptor upon insulin stimulation. Consequently, AMPK_pT172 is inhibited by mTORC1_pS2448 indirectly by the p70-S6K-negative feedback loop. This model is described in the article: A modelling-experimental approach reveals insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-dependent regulation of adenosine monosphosphate-dependent kinase (AMPK) by insulin. Sonntag AG, Dalle Pezze P, Shanley DP, Thedieck K. FEBS J. 2012 Sep; 279(18): 3314-3328 Abstract: Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) kinase responds to growth factors, nutrients and cellular energy status and is a central controller of cellular growth. mTOR exists in two multiprotein complexes that are embedded into a complex signalling network. Adenosine monophosphate-dependent kinase (AMPK) is activated by energy deprivation and shuts off adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)-consuming anabolic processes, in part via the inactivation of mTORC1. Surprisingly, we observed that AMPK not only responds to energy deprivation but can also be activated by insulin, and is further induced in mTORC1-deficient cells. We have recently modelled the mTOR network, covering both mTOR complexes and their insulin and nutrient inputs. In the present study we extended the network by an AMPK module to generate the to date most comprehensive data-driven dynamic AMPK-mTOR network model. In order to define the intersection via which AMPK is activated by the insulin network, we compared simulations for six different hypothetical model structures to our observed AMPK dynamics. Hypotheses ranking suggested that the most probable intersection between insulin and AMPK was the insulin receptor substrate (IRS) and that the effects of canonical IRS downstream cues on AMPK would be mediated via an mTORC1-driven negative-feedback loop. We tested these predictions experimentally in multiple set-ups, where we inhibited or induced players along the insulin-mTORC1 signalling axis and observed AMPK induction or inhibition. We confirmed the identified model and therefore report a novel connection within the insulin-mTOR-AMPK network: we conclude that AMPK is positively regulated by IRS and can be inhibited via the negative-feedback loop.
