The conserved target of rapamycin (TOR) kinase is a central regulator of cell growth in response to nutrient availability. TOR forms 2 structurally and functionally distinct complexes, TORC1 and TORC2, and negatively regulates autophagy via TORC1. Here we demonstrate TOR also operates independently through the TORC2 signaling pathway to promote autophagy upon amino acid limitation. Under these conditions, TORC2, through its downstream target kinase Ypk1, inhibits the Ca2+- and Cmd1/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase, calcineurin, to enable the activation of the amino acid-sensing EIF2S1/eIF2α kinase, Gcn2, and promote autophagy. Thus TORC2 signaling regulates autophagy in a pathway distinct from TORC1 to provide a tunable response to the cellular metabolic state. 相似文献

线粒体对于细胞钙信号和活性氧信号转导有重要的调控作用.超氧炫是新近发现的单个线粒体超氧阴离子短时程爆发现象,反映了活性氧生成动力学的一种新形式.线粒体钙信号作为重要的细胞功能调控信号,能否及如何调控超氧炫尚待深入研究.本研究对HeLa细胞进行高胞外钙和离子霉素刺激,或用皂苷穿孔细胞质膜后置于高钙细胞内液中,两种方法均显著增加了超氧炫发生的频率.其中,穿孔细胞胞浆高钙诱导的超氧炫依赖于线粒体钙单向转运体,表明超氧炫由线粒体基质内高钙信号所诱发.重要的是,离子霉素诱导的超氧炫发生频率与线粒体稳态钙水平线性相关,而与瞬态线粒体钙无相关性,提示钙离子对超氧炫的调控是一个多步骤、相对缓慢的过程.综上,线粒体基质的稳态高钙是超氧炫的重要调控因子. 相似文献

The mitochondria play essential roles in both intracellular calcium and reactive oxygen species signaling.As a newly discovered universal and fundamental mitochondrial phenomenon,superoxide flashes reflect transient bursts of superoxide production in the matrix of single mitochondria.Whether and how the superoxide flash activity is regulated by mitochondrial calcium remain largely unknown.Here we demonstrate that elevating mitochondrial calcium either by the calcium ionophore ionomycin or by increasing the bathing calcium in permeabilized HeLa cells increases superoxide flash incidence,and inhibition of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter activity abolishes the flash response.Quantitatively,the superoxide flash incidence is correlated to the steady-state mitochondrial calcium elevation with 1.7-fold increase per 1.0?F/F0 of Rhod-2 signal.In contrast,large mitochondrial calcium transients(e.g.,peak△F/F0~2.8,duration~2 min)in the absence of steady-state elevations failed to alter the flash activity.These results indicate that physiological levels of sustained,but not transient,mitochondrial calcium elevation acts as a potent regulator of superoxide flashes,but its mechanism of action likely involves a multi-step,slow-onset process. 相似文献

Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) are proposed to play a central role in aging and age-associated disorders, although direct in vivo evidence is lacking. We recently generated a mouse mutant with mutated inner mitochondrial membrane peptidase 2-like (Immp2l) gene, which impairs the signal peptide sequence processing of mitochondrial proteins cytochrome c1 and glycerol phosphate dehydrogenase 2. The mitochondria from mutant mice generate elevated levels of superoxide ion and cause impaired fertility in both sexes. Here, we design experiments to examine the effects of excessive mitochondrial ROS generation on health span. We show that Immp2l mutation increases oxidative stress in multiple organs such as the brain and the kidney, although expression of superoxide dismutases in these tissues of the mutants is also increased. The mutants show multiple aging-associated phenotypes, including wasting, sarcopenia, loss of subcutaneous fat, kyphosis, and ataxia, with female mutants showing earlier onset and more severe age-associated disorders than male mutants. The loss of body weight and fat was unrelated to food intake. Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSC) from mutant mice showed impaired proliferation capability, formed significantly less and smaller colonies in colony formation assays, although they retained adipogenic differentiation capability in vitro. This functional impairment was accompanied by increased levels of oxidative stress. Our data showed that mitochondrial ROS is the driving force of accelerated aging and suggested that ROS damage to adult stem cells could be one of the mechanisms for age-associated disorders. 相似文献

Amino acids, leucine in particular, are known to inhibit autophagy, at least in part by their ability to stimulate MTOR-mediated signaling. Evidence is presented showing that glutamate dehydrogenase, the central enzyme in amino acid catabolism, contributes to leucine sensing in the regulation of autophagy. The data suggest a dual mechanism by which glutamate dehydrogenase activity modulates autophagy, i.e., by activating MTORC1 and by limiting the formation of reactive oxygen species. 相似文献

Lon protease is a multifunction protein and operates in protein quality control and stress response pathways in mitochondria. Human Lon is upregulated under oxidative and hypoxic stresses that represent the stress phenotypes of cancer. However, little literature undertakes comprehensive and detailed investigations on the tumorigenic role of Lon. Overexpression of Lon promotes cell proliferation, apoptotic resistance to stresses, and transformation. Furthermore, Lon overexpression induces the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) that result from Lon-mediated upregulation of NDUFS8, a mitochondrial Fe-S protein in complex I of electron transport chain. Increased level of mitochondrial ROS promotes cell proliferation, cell survival, cell migration, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition through mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and Ras-ERK activation. Overall, the present report for the first time demonstrates the role of Lon overexpression in tumorigenesis. Lon overexpression gives an apoptotic resistance to stresses and induces mitochondrial ROS production through Complex I as signaling molecules to activate Ras and MAPK signaling, giving the survival advantages and adaptation to cancer cells. Finally, in silico and immunohistochemistry analysis showed that Lon is overexpressed specifically in various types of cancer tissue including oral cancer. 相似文献

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: This paper studies the effect of H(2)O(2) on mitochondrial responses evoked by CCK-8 (cholecystokinin 8) in mouse pancreatic acinar cells. Cytosolic ([Ca(2+)](c)) and mitochondrial ([Ca(2+)](m)) free-calcium concentrations, mitochondrial inner membrane potential (psi(m)) and FAD autofluorescence were monitored using confocal laser scanning microscopy. RESULTS: CCK-8 induced an increase in [Ca(2+)](m) that slowly declined towards the prestimulation level. Depolarization of psi(m) that partially recovered, as well as increases in FAD autofluorescence, could also be observed in response to the hormone. Pretreatment of cells with 1 mM H(2)O(2) alone resulted in marked changes in mitochondrial parameters and, moreover, H(2)O(2) inhibited the CCK-8-evoked changes in [Ca(2+)](m), psi(m) and FAD autofluorescence. The results of the present study have demonstrated that CCK-8 can evoke marked changes in pancreatic acinar cell mitochondrial activity and that CCK-8-evoked responses are blocked by H(2)O(2). Additionally, H(2)O(2) releases Ca(2+) from intracellular stores and inhibits pancreatic acinar cell responses to CCK-8. CONCLUSION: The effects observed reflect an impairment of mitochondrial activity in the presence of H(2)O(2) that could represent some of its mechanisms of action to induce cellular damage leading to cell dysfunction and generation of pathologies. 相似文献

The tumor suppressor activity of PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10) is thought to be largely attributable to its lipid phosphatase activity. PTEN dephosphorylates the lipid second messenger phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate to directly antagonize the phosphoinositide 3-kinase-Akt pathway and prevent the activating phosphorylation of Akt. PTEN has also other proposed mechanisms of action, including a poorly characterized protein phosphatase activity, protein–protein interactions, as well as emerging functions in different compartment of the cells such as nucleus and mitochondria. We show here that a fraction of PTEN protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs), signaling domains involved in calcium (2+) transfer from the ER to mitochondria and apoptosis induction. We demonstrate that PTEN silencing impairs ER Ca2+ release, lowers cytosolic and mitochondrial Ca2+ transients and decreases cellular sensitivity to Ca2+-mediated apoptotic stimulation. Specific targeting of PTEN to the ER is sufficient to enhance ER-to-mitochondria Ca2+ transfer and sensitivity to apoptosis. PTEN localization at the ER is further increased during Ca2+-dependent apoptosis induction. Importantly, PTEN interacts with the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) and this correlates with the reduction in their phosphorylation and increased Ca2+ release. We propose that ER-localized PTEN regulates Ca2+ release from the ER in a protein phosphatase-dependent manner that counteracts Akt-mediated reduction in Ca2+ release via IP3Rs. These findings provide new insights into the mechanisms and the extent of PTEN tumor-suppressive functions, highlighting new potential strategies for therapeutic intervention. 相似文献

Mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, regulation of exocytosis and their relevance to neurodegenerative diseases 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A common feature in the early stages of many neurodegenerative diseases lies in mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and reduced levels of synaptic transmission. Many genes associated with neurodegenerative diseases are now known to regulate either mitochondrial function, redox state, or the exocytosis of neurotransmitters. Mitochondria are the primary source of reactive oxygen species and ATP and control apoptosis. Mitochondria are concentrated in synapses and significant alterations to synaptic mitochondrial localization, number, morphology, or function can be detrimental to synaptic transmission. Mitochondrial by-products are capable of regulating various steps of neurotransmission and mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress occur in the early stages of many neurodegenerative diseases. This mini-review will highlight the prospect that mitochondria regulates synaptic exocytosis by controlling synaptic ATP and reactive oxygen species levels and that dysfunctional exocytosis caused by mitochondrial abnormalities may be a common underlying phenomenon in the initial stages of some human neurodegenerative diseases. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Macroautophagy/autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular degradation and recycling process that is tightly regulated by external stimuli, diet, and stress. Our recent findings suggest that in C. elegans, a nutrient sensing pathway mediated by MTORC2 (mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase complex 2) and its downstream effector kinase SGK-1 (serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase homolog 1) suppresses autophagy, involving mitophagy. Induced autophagy/mitophagy in MTORC2-deficient animals slows down development and impairs reproduction independently of the SGK-1 effectors DAF-16/FOXO and SKN-1/NFE2L2/NRF2. In this punctum, we discuss how TORC2-SGK-1 signaling might regulate autophagic turnover and its impact on mitochondrial homeostasis via linking mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species (mtROS) production to mitophagic turnover. 相似文献

Mitochondrial Ca2+ handling plays an important role in energy production and various cellular signaling processes. Mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake is regulated by the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter (MCU), at least one non-MCU Ca2+ channel and possibly a mitochondrial ryanodine receptor. Two distinct mechanisms mediate Ca2+ outward transport, the Na+-dependent (mNCX) and the Na+-independent Ca2+ efflux. In recent years we gained more insight into the regulation and function of these different Ca2+ transport mechanisms. However, the precise physiological role and the molecular structure of all mitochondrial Ca2+ transporters and channels still has to be determined. 相似文献

The mitochondrial uniporter is a selective Ca2+ channel regulated by MICU1, an EF hand‐containing protein in the organelle's intermembrane space. MICU1 physically associates with and is co‐expressed with a paralog, MICU2. To clarify the function of MICU1 and its relationship to MICU2, we used gene knockout (KO) technology. We report that HEK‐293T cells lacking MICU1 or MICU2 lose a normal threshold for Ca2+ intake, extending the known gating function of MICU1 to MICU2. Expression of MICU1 or MICU2 mutants lacking functional Ca2+‐binding sites leads to a striking loss of Ca2+ uptake, suggesting that MICU1/2 disinhibit the channel in response to a threshold rise in [Ca2+]. MICU2's activity and physical association with the pore require the presence of MICU1, though the converse is not true. We conclude that MICU1 and MICU2 are nonredundant and together set the [Ca2+] threshold for uniporter activity. 相似文献

The maximum gene exhibition was shown to be achieved at 48 h after transfection with human bcl-2 (hbcl-2) genes built in an SV40 early promoter-based plasmid vector and HVJ-liposome for cultured rat hepatocytes. The similar procedure of hbcl-2 transfection was therefore conducted for livers in rats via the portal vein, and after 48 h followed by post-ischemic reperfusion (I/R) operation for some hepatic lobes. The I/R-induced hepatic injuries were in situ observed as both cell morphological degeneration and cellular DNA strand cleavages around capillary vessels of the ischemic liver lobes as detected by HE stain and TUNEL assay, and were biochemically observed as release of two hepatic marker enzymes AST and ALT into serum. All the I/R-induced injuries examined were appreciably repressed for rats transfected with hbcl-2; hbcl-2 was expressed in hepatocytes around the capillaries of ischemic regions such as the median lobe and the left lobe, but scarcely around those of non-ischemic regions. Thus cytoprotection against I/R-induced injuries may be attributed to the I/R-promoted expression of transferred hbcl-2 genes. The possibility was examined firstly by methylphenylindole method, which showed that I/R-enhanced lipid peroxidation in the reference vector-transfected livers were markedly repressed in the hbcl-2-transfected livers. Contents of ascorbic acid (Asc) in serum and livers of hbcl-2-transfected rats were enriched, unexpectedly, versus those of non-transfected rats, and were as abundant as 1.90-fold and 1.95- to 2.60-fold versus those in the pre-ischemic state, respectively. After I/R, an immediate decline in serum Asc occurred in hbcl-2-transfectants, and was followed by prompt restoration up to the pre-ischemic Asc levels in contrast to the unaltered lower Asc levels in non-transfectants except a transient delayed increase. Hepatic Asc contents were also diminished appreciably at the initial stage after I/R in the ischemic lobes of hbcl-2-transfectants, which however retained more abundant Asc versus non-transfectants especially at the initial I/R stage when scavenging of the oxidative stress should be most necessary for cytoprotection. The results showed a close correlation between cytoprotection by exogenously transferred hbcl-2 and repressive effects on the lipid peroxidation associated with Asc consumption or redistribution. 相似文献
