Deletion of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter in adipose tissue promotes energy expenditure and alleviates diet-induced obesity

Project description:Objectives: Studies have shown a correlation between obesity and mitochondrial calcium homeostasis, yet it is unclear whether and how Mcu regulates adipocyte lipid deposition. This study aims to provide new potential target for the treatment of obesity and related metabolic diseases, and to explore the function of Mcu in adipose tissue. Methods: We firstly investigated the role of mitoxantrone, an Mcu inhibitor, in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism in mouse adipocytes (3T3-L1 cells). Secondly, C57BL/6J mice were used as a research model to investigate the effects of Mcu inhibitors on fat accumulation and glucose metabolism in mice on a high-fat diet (HFD), and by using CRISPR/Cas9 technology, adipose tissue-specific Mcu knockdown mice (Mcu fl/+ AKO) and Mcu knockout of mice (Mcu fl/fl AKO) were obtained, to further investigate the direct effects of Mcu on fat deposition, glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity in mice on a high-fat diet. Results: we found the Mcu inhibitor reduced adipocytes lipid accumulation and adipose tissues mass in mice fed an HFD. Both Mcu fl/+ AKO mice and Mcu fl/fl AKO mice were resistant to HFD-induced obesity, compared to control mice. Mice with Mcu fl/fl AKO showed improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity as well as reduced hepatic lipid accumulation. Mechanistically, inhibition of Mcu promoted mitochondrial biogenesis and adipocyte browning, increase energy expenditure and alleviates diet-induced obesity. Conclusion: Our study demonstrates a link between adipocyte lipid accumulation and mCa2+ levels, suggesting that adipose-specific Mcu deficiency alleviates HFD-induced obesity and ameliorates metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis. These effects may be achieved by increasing mitochondrial biosynthesis, promoting white fat browning and enhancing energy metabolism.

Exploring the in vivo role of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter in brown fat bioenergetics

Project description:The mitochondrial calcium uniporter has been proposed to coordinate the organelle’s energetics with cytosolic calcium signaling. Previous studies have shown that the uniporter current is extremely high in mitochondria from brown adipose tissue (BAT), yet the contribution of the uniporter to BAT physiology in vivo is not known. Here, we report the generation and characterization of a mouse model lacking Mcu, the pore forming subunit of the uniporter, specifically in BAT (BAT-Mcu-KO). BAT-Mcu-KO mice are born in Mendelian ratios on a C57BL6/J genetic background, without any overt phenotypes. Although uniporter based calcium uptake is selectively ablated in BAT mitochondria, these mice are able to defend their body temperature in response to cold challenge and exhibit a normal body weight trajectory on a high fat diet. BAT transcriptional profiles at baseline and following cold-challenge are intact and not impacted by loss of Mcu. Unexpectedly, we found that cold powerfully activates the ATF4-dependent integrated stress response in BAT, and increases both circulating FGF21 and GDF15 levels, raising the hypothesis that the integrated stress response partly underlies the pleiotropic effects of BAT on systemic metabolism. Our study demonstrates that the uniporter is largely dispensable for BAT thermogenesis, and unexpectedly, uncovers a striking activation of the integrated stress response of BAT to cold challenge.

The Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter controls skeletal muscle mass in vivo

Project description:Muscle atrophy contributes to the poor prognosis of many physiopathological conditions, but pharmacological therapies are still limited. Muscle activity leads to major swings in mitochondrial [Ca2+] which control aerobic metabolism, cell death and survival pathways. We have investigated in vivo the effects of mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis in skeletal muscle function and trophism, by overexpressing or silencing the Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter (MCU). The results coherently demonstrate that both in developing and in adult muscles MCU-dependent mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake has a marked trophic effect that does not depend on autophagy or aerobic control, but impinges on two major hypertrophic pathways of skeletal muscle, PGC-1M-NM-14 and Igf1-Akt/PKB. In adult mice, MCU overexpression protects from denervation-induced atrophy. These data reveal a novel Ca2+-dependent organelle-to-nucleus signaling route, which links mitochondrial function to the control of muscle mass and may represent a possible pharmacological target in sarcopenia. Experiments were performed on biological replicates of single skeletal muscle fibres. Seven fibres were chosen for their Mutochondrial Calcium Uniporter (MCU) overexpression and other seven fibres because MCU was silenced. Overexpression and silencing were performed injecting skeletal muscle with AAV containing MCU gene or short interfering oligos specific for MCU. As control was profiled eigth fibres transfected with AAV and eigth wild type fibres. Analyses were performed 7 days and 14 days after the AAV injection (3 fibers after 7 days and 4 fibers after 14 days for MCU overexpression and silencing, four fibres after 7 days and four after 14 days for control).

Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter Promotes Kidney Aging through Inducing Mitochondrial Calcium-Mediated Renal Tubular Cell Senescence

Project description:Kidney is a vital organ responsible for homeostasis in the body. To retard kidney aging is of great importance for maintaining body health. Whereas the therapeutic strategies targeting against kidney aging are not elucidated. Recent studies show mitochondrial dysfunction is critical for renal tubular cell senescence and kidney aging, however, the underlying mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction in kidney aging have not been demonstrated. Herein, we found calcium overload, and the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) was induced in renal tubular cells and aged kidney. To activate MCU not only triggered mitochondrial calcium overload, but also induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and cellular senescence and age-related kidney fibrosis. Inversely, to block MCU or chelate calcium diminished ROS generation, restored mitochondrial homeostasis, and retarded cell senescence and protected against kidney aging. These results demonstrate MCU plays a key role in promote renal tubular cell senescence, which provides a new insight on the therapeutic strategy for fighting against kidney aging.

NK2R control of energy expenditure and feeding to treat metabolic diseases

Project description:The combination of decreasing food intake and increasing energy expenditure represents a powerful strategy for counteracting cardiometabolic diseases, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes1. Yet current approaches require conjugating multiple receptor agonists to achieve both effects2–4 and, thus far, no safe energy-expending option has reached the clinic. Here we show that activation of Neurokinin 2 Receptor (NK2R) is sufficient to suppress appetite centrally and increase energy expenditure peripherally. We focused on NK2R after discovering its genetic links to obesity and glucose control. However, therapeutically exploiting NK2R signalling has previously been unattainable because its endogenous ligand, Neurokinin A (NKA), is short-lived and lacks receptor specificity5,6. Therefore, we developed selective, long-acting NK2R agonists, with potential for once-weekly administration in humans. In mice, these agonists elicit weight loss by inducing energy expenditure and non-aversive appetite suppression that circumvents canonical leptin signalling. Additionally, a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp reveals that NK2R agonism acutely enhances insulin sensitization. In diabetic, obese nonhuman primates, NK2R activation significantly decreases body weight, blood glucose, triglycerides, and cholesterol, and ameliorates insulin resistance. These findings identify a single receptor target that leverages both energy-expending and appetite-suppressing programs to improve energy homeostasis and reverse cardiometabolic dysfunction across species.
