Carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A promotes mitochondrial fission by enhancing MFF succinylation in ovarian cancer

ABSTRACT: Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that are important for cell growth and proliferation. Dysregulated mitochondrial dynamics are highly associated with the initiation and progression of various cancers, including ovarian cancer. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying mitochondrial dynamics is still not fully understood. Previously, our study showed that carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) is highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells and promotes the development of ovarian cancer. Here, we find that CPT1A regulates mitochondrial dynamics and promotes mitochondrial fission in ovarian cancer cells. Our study futher shows that CPT1A regulates mitochondrial fission and function through mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) to promote the growth and proliferation of ovarian cancer cells. Mechanistically, we show that CPT1A promotes succinylation of MFF at lysine 302 (K302), which protects against Parkin-mediated ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation of MFF. Finally, the study shows that MFF is highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells and that high MFF expression is associated with poor prognosis in patients with ovarian cancer. MFF inhibition significantly inhibits the progression of ovarian cancer in vivo. Overall, CPT1A regulates mitochondrial dynamics through MFF succinylation to promote the development of ovarian cancer. Moreover, our findings suggest that MFF is a potential therapeutic target for ovarian cancer.

CPT1A-mediated MFF succinylation promotes stemness maintenance in ovarian cancer stem cells by enhancing mitochondria-associated membranes formation

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are key players in cancer progression, immune evasion, drug resistance, and recurrence, particularly in ovarian cancer. Mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) are dynamic structures linking mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum, essential for cellular processes. Whether MAMs supports CSCs and the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we unveil that CPT1A is highly expressed in ovarian cancer stem cells (OCSCs) and is essential for stemness maintenance. CPT1A facilitates stemness maintenance by regulating lipid desaturation in ovarian cancer. Further studies confirmed that CPT1A enhances SREBP1 cleavage and nuclear translocation, thereby upregulating SCD1 expression and promoting lipid desaturation in OCSCs. Furthermore, MAMs are found to be critical for SREBP1 activation. Mechanistic studies have shown that CPT1A promotes mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) succinylation (succK-MFF) through its lysine succinyltransferase (LSTase) activity, with succK-MFF being crucial for MAMs formation and SREBP1 activation. Additionally, inhibiting the LSTase activity of CPT1A with Glyburide reduced OCSCs' stemness and enhanced cisplatin's anti-tumor effects against ovarian cancer both in vitro and in vivo. Together, our studies reveal the importance of CPT1A's LSTase activity in MAMs formation and OCSCs' stemness maintenance, providing potential targets and therapeutic strategies for ovarian cancer treatment.

Project description:Mitochondria undergo continuous cycles of fission and fusion to promote inheritance, regulate quality control, and mitigate organelle stress. More recently, this process of mitochondrial dynamics has been demonstrated to be highly sensitive to nutrient supply, ultimately conferring bioenergetic plasticity to the organelle. However, whether regulators of mitochondrial dynamics play a causative role in nutrient regulation remains unclear. In this study, we generated a cellular loss-of-function model for dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), the primary regulator of outer membrane mitochondrial fission. Loss of DRP1 (shDRP1) resulted in extensive ultrastructural and functional remodeling of mitochondria, characterized by pleomorphic enlargement, increased electron density of the matrix, and defective NADH and succinate oxidation. Despite increased mitochondrial size and volume, shDRP1 cells exhibited reduced cellular glucose uptake and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. Untargeted transcriptomic profiling revealed severe downregulation of genes required for cellular and mitochondrial calcium homeostasis, inhibition of ATP-stimulated calcium flux, and impaired substrate oxidation stimulated by calcium levels. The insights obtained herein suggest that DRP1 regulates fatty acid oxidation by altering whole-cell and mitochondrial calcium dynamics. These findings are relevant to the targetability of mitochondrial fission and have clinical relevance in the identification of treatments for fission-related pathologies such as hereditary neuropathies, inborn errors in metabolism, cancer, and chronic diseases.

Project description:Mitochondrial fusion and fission, which are strongly related to normal mitochondrial function, are referred to as mitochondrial dynamics. Mitochondrial fusion defects in the liver cause a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis-like phenotype and liver cancer. However, whether mitochondrial fission defect directly impair liver function and stimulate liver disease progression, too, is unclear. Dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) is a key factor controlling mitochondrial fission. We hypothesized that DRP1 defects are a causal factor directly involved in liver disease development and stimulate liver disease progression. Drp1 defects directly promoted endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, hepatocyte death, and subsequently induced infiltration of inflammatory macrophages. Drp1 deletion increased the expression of numerous genes involved in the immune response and DNA damage in Drp1LiKO mouse primary hepatocytes. We administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to liver-specific Drp1-knockout (Drp1LiKO) mice and observed an increased inflammatory cytokine expression in the liver and serum caused by exaggerated ER stress and enhanced inflammasome activation. This study indicates that Drp1 defect-induced mitochondrial dynamics dysfunction directly regulates the fate and function of hepatocytes and enhances LPS-induced acute liver injury in vivo.

Mitochondrial mechanotransduction through MIEF1 coordinates the nuclear response to forces

Project description:Tissue-scale architecture and mechanical properties instruct cell behavior in physiological and diseased conditions, but our understanding of the underlying mechanisms remains fragmentary. Here we show that ECM stiffness, spatial confinements, and applied forces including stretching of the mouse skin regulate mitochondrial dynamics. Actomyosin tension promotes phosphorylation of MIEF1, limiting the recruitment of DRP1 at mitochondria, peri-mitochondrial F-actin formation, and mitochondrial fission. Strikingly, mitochondrial fission is also a general mechanotransduction mechanism. Indeed we found that DRP1- and MIEF1-dependent fission is required and sufficient to regulate three transcription factors of broad relevance such as YAP-TAZ, SREBP1-2, and NRF2 to control cell proliferation, lipogenesis, antioxidant metabolism, chemotherapy resistance, and adipocyte differentiation in response to mechanical cues. This extends to the mouse liver, where DRP1 regulates hepatocyte proliferation and identity, hallmark YAP-dependent phenotypes. We propose that mitochondria fulfill a unifying signaling function by which the mechanical tissue microenvironment coordinates complementary cell functions.

Mitochondrial fusion limits breast cancer metastasis

Project description:Mitochondrial metabolism plays a central role in promoting cancer growth and metastatic progression. The transition between a hyperfused and fragmented mitochondrial network is termed mitochondrial dynamics and is important for many mitochondria-associated functions; however, little is known regarding how this process influences metastasis. Here, we show that breast cancer cells with low metastatic potential exhibit a more fused mitochondrial network compared to highly metastatic breast cancer cells. To examine whether a fused mitochondrial network could impair metastasis, we inhibited mitochondrial fission in metastatic breast cancer cells by individual genetic deletion of three key regulators of mitochondrial fission (Drp1, Fis1 and Mff) or pharmacological intervention using leflunomide, an anti-rheumatic drug. These cells displayed a fused mitochondrial network and limited survival under anoikis conditions, consistent with mitochondrial fusion limiting metastasis. Transcriptomics and metabolomics analyses revealed that mitochondrial fusion causes significant alterations in metabolic pathways and processes related to cell adhesion. Functional bioenergetics assays demonstrated that mitochondrial fusion limited the mitochondrial capacity of cancer cells. Mitochondrial fusion in breast cancer cells had no significant effect on primary tumor growth but almost completely ablated lung metastasis in vivo. Furthermore, the transcriptomics signature associated with enhanced mitochondrial fusion correlated with improved survival in patients with breast cancer. Overall, our findings highlight mitochondrial fusion as a therapeutic opportunity for breast cancer.

hnRNPA is a novel regulator of a mitochondrial microprotein expression

Project description:Mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) are microproteins that are encoded by short open reading frames within the mitochondrial genome. Several MDPs have been identified in recent years; however, the transcriptional and translational regulation of MDPs remain poorly understood. Here we discovered an RNA binding protein of an MDP called humanin. By conducting RNA pull-down assays from mitochondrial extracts, we confidently pinpointed three humanin RNA binding partners that regulate translation: heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins A1 (hnRNPA1), hnRNPA2, and hnRNPA3. We also identified a novel post-translational modification in the form of succinylation in hnRNPA1 at lysine residue K-106. Succinylation of hnRNPA1 plays an important role in mitochondrial translocation and binding affinity of hnRNPA1 to humanin mRNA. Furthermore, hnRNPA1 and humanin are highly co-expressed in prostate cancer. We provide the first evidence of mRNA binding proteins modulating the expression of a mitochondrial microprotein. This study articulates important new roles of ribonucleoproteins in modulating microprotein expression in mitochondria.

FDXR Drives Primary and Endocrine Resistant Tumor Cell Growth in ER+ Breast Cancer via CPT1A-Mediated Fatty Acid Oxidation

Project description:The majority of breast cancers (BCs) harboring estrogen receptor (ER) have shown endocrine resistance. Our previous study has demonstrated that ferredoxin reductase (FDXR) promotes mitochondrial function and ER+ breast tumorigenesis. Here, integrative analyses of targeted metabolomics assay and gene expression profiling show that FDXR potentiates fatty acid oxidation (FAO) through positive regulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) expression. Treatment with ER antagonist (tamoxifen) or degrader (fulvestrant) leads to increased expression of FDXR and CPT1A. In line with this finding, we find that FDXR-CPT1A-FAO axis is required for primary and endocrine resistant breast cancer cell growth. Therapeutically,combining endocrine therapy with FAO inhibitor synergistically reduces primary and endocrine resistant breast cancer cell growth, thus providing a potential combinatory treatment for ER+ breast cancer. We used microarrays to be able to elucidate to some extent the gene regulatory mechanisms of FDXR regulating breast cancer metabolism.

CPT1A induction following epigenetic perturbation promotes MAVS palmitoylation and activation to potentiate antitumor immunity

Project description:argeting epigenetic regulators to potentiate anti-PD-1 immunotherapy converges on the activation of type I interferon (IFN-I) response, mimicking cellular response to viral infection, but how its strength and duration are regulated to impact combination therapy efficacy remains largely unknown. Here, we show that mitochondrial CPT1A downregulation following viral infection restrains, while its induction by epigenetic perturbations sustains, a double-stranded RNA-activated IFN-I response. Mechanistically, CPT1A recruits the endoplasmic reticulum-localized ZDHHC4 to catalyze MAVS Cys79-palmitoylation, which promotes MAVS stabilization and activation by inhibiting K48- but facilitating K63-linked ubiquitination. Further elevation of CPT1A incrementally increases MAVS palmitoylation and amplifies the IFN-I response, which enhances control of viral infection and epigenetic perturbation-induced antitumor immunity. Moreover, CPT1A chemical inducers augment the therapeutic effect of combined epigenetic treatment with PD-1 blockade in refractory tumors. Our study identifies CPT1A as a stabilizer of MAVS activation, and its link to epigenetic perturbation can be exploited for cancer immunotherapy.
