The activity of yeast pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is regulated by reversible phosphorylation. Recently we identified two enzymes that are involved in the phosphorylation (Pkp1p) and dephosphorylation (Ppp1p) of Pda1p, the alpha-subunit of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. Here we provide evidence that two additional mitochondrial proteins, Pkp2p (Ygl059wp) and Ppp2p (Ycr079wp), are engaged in the regulation of this complex by affecting the phosphorylation state of Pda1p. Our data indicate complementary activities of the kinases and a redundant function for the phosphatases. Both proteins are associated with the complex. We propose a model for the role of the regulatory enzymes and the phosphorylation state of Pda1p in the assembly process of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. 相似文献

Ca(2+)-dependent activation of citric acid cycle enzymes has been demonstrated in isolated cardiac mitochondria. These observations led to the hypothesis that Ca2+ is the signal coupling myofibrillar energy use to mitochondrial energy production in vivo. To test this hypothesis we have measured mitochondrial Ca2+ content during increased energy demand, using electron probe microanalysis. Mitochondrial Ca2+ was measured in hamster papillary muscles rapidly frozen at the peak rate of tension rise under control conditions and after stimulation with the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (10(-6) M). A third group of muscles was frozen after incubation in low (46.5 mM) Na+ solution to Ca2+ load the cells. Pyruvate dehydrogenase activity was measured in each of the muscles. Isoproterenol caused a 39% increase in force and a 43% increase in pyruvate dehydrogenase activity but no change in mitochondrial Ca2+ (0.46 +/- 0.19 (S.E.) mmol of Ca2+/kg, dry weight) compared with control (0.54 +/- 0.12). In contrast, low Na+ increased pyruvate dehydrogenase activity by 56% and also elevated mitochondrial Ca2+ to 1.28 +/- 0.31 (p less than 0.02). These results demonstrate that mitochondrial Ca2+ is not elevated after inotropic stimulation of cardiac muscle by beta-adrenergic agonists although pyruvate dehydrogenase activity is increased. We conclude that Ca2+ uptake by mitochondria is not a requirement for activation of mitochondrial respiration after increased energy demand. 相似文献

Zinc protects chondrocytes from monosodium iodoacetate-induced damage by enhancing ATP and mitophagy
《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2020,521(1):50-56
Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized with articular cartilage degradation, and monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-treated chondrocyte is the most commonly used model for mimicking OA progression. Zinc protects chondrocytes from MIA-induced damage. Here, we explored the protective effects of 25 μM zinc on 5 μM MIA-treated SW1353 cells (human chondrosarcoma cell line) through the analysis of energy metabolism- and autophagy-related parameters. We found that the exposure of SW1353 cells to MIA decreased ATP levels, expression of glycolysis-related proteins, including glucose transporter 1, hexokinase 2, and pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 component subunit alpha, and the levels of mitochondrial complex I, II, IV, and V subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation pathway. MIA treatment also decreased the expression of autophagy-related proteins, including autophagic elongation protein 5 (ATG5), ATG7, and microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B light chain 3B (LC3-II) and mitophagy-related proteins, including phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN)-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1), ubiquitin, and p62. These results indicate that MIA interferes with energy metabolism and the autophagic clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria (so called mitophagy). Interestingly, zinc exposure could almost completely reverse the effects of MIA, suggesting its potential protective role against OA progression. 相似文献

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a precursor of the adrenocorticosteroid hormones that are common to all animals, including poultry. The study described herein was undertaken to investigate the effect of DHEA on lipid metabolism in broiler chickens during embryonic development and to determine the regulatory mechanisms involved in its physiological action. Treatment group eggs were injected with 50 mg DHEA diluted in 50 μL dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) per kg, while control group eggs (arbor acres [AA] fertilized) were injected with 50 μL DMSO per kg prior to incubation. Liver samples were collected on days 9, 14 and 19 of embryonic development as well as at hatching. Extracted proteins were analyzed by two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) in combination with western blotting for specific anti-phosphotyrosine. The differential spots were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) or MALDI-TOF-TOF-MS. Peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) of the differentially-expressed proteins were performed using the MASCOT, Prospector or proFound server. Thirty-seven proteins and twenty-two tyrosine phosphorylation proteins were successfully identified. All 37 proteins and 22 tyrosine phosphorylation proteins exhibited a significant volume difference from the control group. These results demonstrated that DHEA increased the expression and level of tyrosine phosphorylation and sulfotransferase proteins in broilers (at pI 5.9), therefore promoting the biotransformation of DHEA. The expression of apolipoproteinA-I was increased in the DHEA treatment group, which facilitated the conversion of cholesterol to cholesterol esters. Also, DHEA increased the expression of peroxiredoxin-6 and its tyrosine phosphorylation protein levels, thus enhancing its anti-oxidative activity. Furthermore, pyruvate dehydrogenase expression was decreased and the level of its tyrosine phosphorylation proteins increased in the DHEA treatment group. Take together, those data indicate that DHEA reduces the supply of acetyl-CoA by inhibiting the activity of its target enzyme (i.e. pyruvate dehydrogenase), thus affecting both protein synthesis and phosphorylation level and decreasing fat deposition in broiler chickens during embryonic development, which could reflect a physiologically-relevant DHEA fat-reduction mechanism in the broiler chicken. 相似文献

Proteomic techniques were used to identify cardiac proteins from whole heart homogenate and heart mitochondria of Fisher 344/Brown Norway F1 rats, which suffer protein nitration as a consequence of biological aging. Soluble proteins from young (5 mo old) and old (26 mo old) animals were separated by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. One- and two-dimensional Western blots with an anti-nitrotyrosine antibody show an age-related increase in the immunoresponse of a few specific proteins, which were identified by nanoelectrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (NSI-MS/MS). Complementary proteins were immunoprecipitated with an immobilized anti-nitrotyrosine antibody followed by NSI-MS/MS analysis. A total of 48 proteins were putatively identified. Among the identified proteins were alpha-enolase, alpha-aldolase, desmin, aconitate hydratase, methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase, 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase, acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, GAPDH, malate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, electron-transfer flavoprotein, manganese-superoxide dismutase, F1-ATPase, and the voltage-dependent anion channel. Some contaminating blood proteins including transferrin and fibrinogen beta-chain precursor showed increased levels of nitration as well. MS/MS analysis located nitration at Y105 of the electron-transfer flavoprotein. Among the identified proteins, there are important enzymes responsible for energy production and metabolism as well as proteins involved in the structural integrity of the cells. Our results are consistent with age-dependent increased oxidative stress and with free radical-dependent damage of proteins. Possibly the oxidative modifications of the identified proteins contribute to the age-dependent degeneration and functional decline of heart proteins. 相似文献

In the development of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, the role of the myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation has been given increased consideration. ML-7, a MLC kinase inhibitor, has been shown to protect cardiac function from I/R, however the exact mechanism remains unclear. Isolated rat hearts were perfused under aerobic conditions (controls) or subjected to I/R in the presence or absence of ML-7. Continuous administration of ML-7 (5 μM) from 10 min before onset of ischemia to the first 10 min of reperfusion resulted in significant recovery of heart contractility. Analysis of gels from two-dimensional electrophoresis revealed eight proteins with decreased levels in I/R hearts. Six proteins are involved in energy metabolism:ATP synthase beta subunit, cytochrome b-c1 complex subunit 1, 24-kDa mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] iron-sulfur protein 8, cytochrome c oxidase subunit, and succinyl-CoA ligase subunit. The other two proteins with decreased levels in I/R hearts are: peroxiredoxin-2 and tubulin. Administration of ML-7 increased level of succinyl-CoA ligase, key enzyme involved in the citric acid cycle. The increased level of succinyl-CoA ligase in I/R hearts perfused with ML-7 suggests that the cardioprotective effect of ML-7, at least partially, also may involve increase of energy production. 相似文献

The development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is strongly associated with obesity. In humans, T2D increases the risk for end organ complications. Among these, heart disease has been ranked as the leading cause of death. We used a proteomic methodology to test the hypothesis that a pre-diabetic state generated by high-fat diet leads to changes in proteins related to heart function and structure. Over 300 protein spots were resolved by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). Fifteen protein spots were found to be altered (7 decreased and 8 increased) in pre-diabetic hearts. The protein spots were then identified by mass spectrometry and immunoblots. Among the decreased proteins, 3 are involved in heart structure (one isoform of desmin, troponin T2 and α-cardiac actin), 3 are involved in energy metabolism (mitochondrial ATP synthase β subunit, adenylate kinase and creatine kinase) and one is a component of the citric acid cycle (isocitrate dehydrogenase 3). In contrast, proteins involved in fatty acid oxidation (two isoforms of peroxisomal enoyl-CoA hydratase) and the citric acid cycle (three isoforms of malate dehydrogenase) were increased in pre-diabetic hearts. The results suggest that changes in the levels of several heart proteins may have implications in the development of the cardiac phenotype associated to T2D. 相似文献

This study examines the role of c- jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in mitochondrial signaling and bioenergetics in primary cortical neurons and isolated rat brain mitochondria. Exposure of neurons to either anisomycin (an activator of JNK/p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases) or H2 O2 resulted in activation (phosphorylation) of JNK (mostly p46JNK1 ) and its translocation to mitochondria. Experiments with mitochondria isolated from either rat brain or primary cortical neurons and incubated with proteinase K revealed that phosphorylated JNK was associated with the outer mitochondrial membrane; this association resulted in the phosphorylation of the E1α subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase, a key enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and that links two major metabolic pathways: glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle. JNK-mediated phosphorylation of pyruvate dehydrogenase was not observed in experiments carried out with mitoplasts, thus suggesting the requirement of intact, functional mitochondria for this effect. JNK-mediated phosphorylation of pyruvate dehydrogenase was associated with a decline in its activity and, consequently, a shift to anaerobic pyruvate metabolism: the latter was confirmed by increased accumulation of lactic acid and decreased overall energy production (ATP levels). Pyruvate dehydrogenase appears to be a specific phosphorylation target for JNK, for other kinases, such as protein kinase A and protein kinase C did not elicit pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphorylation and did not decrease the activity of the complex. These results suggest that JNK mediates a signaling pathway that regulates metabolic functions in mitochondria as part of a network that coordinates cytosolic and mitochondrial processes relevant for cell function. 相似文献

We have determined the extent to which acute ethanol administration perturbs the synthesis of ventricular contractile and non-contractile proteins in vivo. Male Wistar rats were treated with a standard dose of ethanol (75 mmol kg?1 body weight; i.p.). Controls were treated with isovolumetric amounts of saline (0·15 mol 1?1 NaCl). Two metabolic inhibitors of ethanol metabolism were also used namely 4-methylpyrazole (alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor) and cyanamide (acetaldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor) which in ethanol-dosed rats have been shown to either decrease or increase acetaldehyde formation, respectively. After 2·5 h, fractional rates of protein synthesis (i.e. the percentage of tissue protein renewed each day) were measured with a large (i.e. ‘flooding’) dose of L -[4-3H]phenylalanine (150 μmol (100 g)?1 body weight into a lateral vein). This dose of phenylalanine effectively floods all endogenous free amino acid pools so that the specific radioactivity of the free amino acid at the site of protein synthesis (i.e. the amino acyl tRNA) is reflected by the specific radioactivity of the free amino acid in acid-soluble portions of cardiac homogenates. The results showed that ethanol alone and ethanol plus 4-methylpyrazole decreased the fractional rates of mixed, myofibrillar (contractile) and sarcoplasmic (non-contractile) protein synthesis to the same extent (by approx. 25 per cent). Profound inhibition (i.e. 80 per cent) in the fractional rates of mixed, myofibrillar and sarcoplasmic protein synthesis occurred when cyanamide was used to increase acetaldehyde formation. There was also a significant decrease in cardiac DNA content. The results suggest that acute ethanol-induced cardiac injury in the rat may be mediated by both acetaldehyde and ethanol. 相似文献

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, oxidation of pyruvate to acetyl coenzyme A can occur via two routes. In pyruvate decarboxylase-negative (Pdc-) mutants, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is the sole functional link between glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Such mutants therefore provide a useful experimental system with which to study regulation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. In this study, a possible in vivo inactivation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex was investigated. When respiring, carbon-limited chemostat cultures of wild-type S. cerevisiae were pulsed with excess glucose, an immediate onset of respiro-fermentative metabolism occurred, accompanied by a strong increase of the glycolytic flux. When the same experiment was performed with an isogenic Pdc- mutant, only a small increase of the glycolytic flux was observed and pyruvate was the only major metabolite excreted. This finding supports the hypothesis that reoxidation of cytosolic NADH via pyruvate decarboxylase and alcohol dehydrogenase is a prerequisite for high glycolytic fluxes in S. cerevisiae. In Pdc- cultures, the specific rate of oxygen consumption increased by ca. 40% after a glucose pulse. Calculations showed that pyruvate excretion by the mutant was not due to a decrease of the pyruvate flux into the TCA cycle. We therefore conclude that rapid inactivation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (e.g., by phosphorylation of its E1 alpha subunit, a mechanism demonstrated in many higher organisms) is not a relevant mechanism in the response of respiring S. cerevisiae cells to excess glucose. Consistently, pyruvate dehydrogenase activities in cell extracts did not exhibit a strong decrease after a glucose pulse. 相似文献

Oxidative stress resistant Deinococcus radiodurans surprisingly exhibited moderate sensitivity to tellurite induced oxidative stress (LD50 = 40 μM tellurite, 40 min exposure). The organism reduced 70% of 40 μM potassium tellurite within 5 h. Tellurite exposure significantly modulated cellular redox status. The level of ROS and protein carbonyl contents increased while the cellular reduction potential substantially decreased following tellurite exposure. Cellular thiols levels initially increased (within 30 min) of tellurite exposure but decreased at later time points. At proteome level, tellurite resistance proteins (TerB and TerD), tellurite reducing enzymes (pyruvate dehydrogense subunits E1 and E3), ROS detoxification enzymes (superoxide dismutase and thioredoxin reductase), and protein folding chaperones (DnaK, EF‐Ts, and PPIase) displayed increased abundance in tellurite‐stressed cells. However, remarkably decreased levels of key metabolic enzymes (aconitase, transketolase, 3‐hydroxy acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase, acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase, electron transfer flavoprotein alpha, and beta) involved in carbon and energy metabolism were observed upon tellurite stress. The results demonstrate that depletion of reduction potential in intensive tellurite reduction with impaired energy metabolism lead to tellurite toxicity in D. radiodurans. 相似文献

Lipoic acid-dependent pathways of alpha-keto acid oxidation by mitochondria were investigated in pea (Pisum sativum), rice (Oryza sativa), and Arabidopsis. Proteins containing covalently bound lipoic acid were identified on isoelectric focusing/sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis separations of mitochondrial proteins by the use of antibodies raised to this cofactor. All these proteins were identified by tandem mass spectrometry. Lipoic acid-containing acyltransferases from pyruvate dehydrogenase complex and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex were identified from all three species. In addition, acyltransferases from the branched-chain dehydrogenase complex were identified in both Arabidopsis and rice mitochondria. The substrate-dependent reduction of NAD(+) was analyzed by spectrophotometry using specific alpha-keto acids. Pyruvate- and alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent reactions were measured in all three species. Activity of the branched-chain dehydrogenase complex was only measurable in Arabidopsis mitochondria using substrates that represented the alpha-keto acids derived by deamination of branched-chain amino acids (Val [valine], leucine, and isoleucine). The rate of branched-chain amino acid- and alpha-keto acid-dependent oxygen consumption by intact Arabidopsis mitochondria was highest with Val and the Val-derived alpha-keto acid, alpha-ketoisovaleric acid. Sequencing of peptides derived from trypsination of Arabidopsis mitochondrial proteins revealed the presence of many of the enzymes required for the oxidation of all three branched-chain amino acids. The potential role of branched-chain amino acid catabolism as an oxidative phosphorylation energy source or as a detoxification pathway during plant stress is discussed. 相似文献

We examined the metabolic responses of the hypoxia-tolerant killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) to 15 h of severe hypoxia and recovery with emphasis on muscle substrate usage and the regulation of the mitochondrial protein pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), which controls carbohydrate oxidation. Hypoxia survival involved a transient activation of substrate-level phosphorylation in muscle (decreases in [creatine phospate] and increases in [lactate]) during which time mechanisms to reduce overall ATP consumption were initiated. This metabolic transition did not affect total cellular [ATP], but had an impact on cellular energy status as indicated by large decreases in [ATP]/[ADP(free)] and [ATP]/[AMP(free)] and a significant loss of phosphorylation potential and Gibbs free energy of ATP hydrolysis (DeltafG'). The activity of PDH was rapidly (within 3 h) decreased by approximately 50% upon hypoxia exposure and remained depressed relative to normoxic samples throughout. Inactivation of PDH was primarily mediated via posttranslational modification following the accumulation of acetyl-CoA and subsequent activation of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK). Estimated changes in cytoplasmic and mitochondrial [NAD(+)]/[NADH] did not parallel one another, suggesting the mitochondrial NADH shuttles do not function during hypoxia exposure. Large increases in the expression of PDK (PDK isoform 2) were consistent with decreased PDH activity; however, these changes in mRNA were not associated with changes in total PDK-2 protein content assessed using mammalian antibodies. No other changes in the expression of other known hypoxia-responsive genes (e.g., lactate dehydrogenase-A or -B) were observed in either muscle or liver. 相似文献

Ubiquitylation by Trim32 causes coupled loss of desmin, Z-bands, and thin filaments in muscle atrophy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
During muscle atrophy, myofibrillar proteins are degraded in an ordered process in which MuRF1 catalyzes ubiquitylation of thick filament components (Cohen et al. 2009. J. Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.200901052). Here, we show that another ubiquitin ligase, Trim32, ubiquitylates thin filament (actin, tropomyosin, troponins) and Z-band (α-actinin) components and promotes their degradation. Down-regulation of Trim32 during fasting reduced fiber atrophy and the rapid loss of thin filaments. Desmin filaments were proposed to maintain the integrity of thin filaments. Accordingly, we find that the rapid destruction of thin filament proteins upon fasting was accompanied by increased phosphorylation of desmin filaments, which promoted desmin ubiquitylation by Trim32 and degradation. Reducing Trim32 levels prevented the loss of both desmin and thin filament proteins. Furthermore, overexpression of an inhibitor of desmin polymerization induced disassembly of desmin filaments and destruction of thin filament components. Thus, during fasting, desmin phosphorylation increases and enhances Trim32-mediated degradation of the desmin cytoskeleton, which appears to facilitate the breakdown of Z-bands and thin filaments. 相似文献

Human heart failure is a complex syndrome and a primary cause of morbidity and mortality in the world. However, the molecular pathways involved in the remodelling process are poorly understood. In this study, we performed exhaustive global proteomic surveys of cardiac ventricle isolated from failing and non-failing human hearts, and determined the regulatory pathway to uncover the mechanism underlying heart failure. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) coupled with tandem mass spectrometry was used to identify differentially expressed proteins in specimens from failing (n = 9) and non-failing (n = 6) human hearts. A total of 25 proteins with at least 1.5-fold change in the failing heart were identified; 15 proteins were up-regulated and 10 proteins were down-regulated. The altered proteins belong to three broad functional categories: (i) metabolic [e.g. NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone), dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase, and the cytochrome c oxidase subunit]; (ii) cytoskeletal (e.g. myosin light chain proteins, troponin I type 3 and transthyretin) and (iii) stress response (e.g. αB-crystallin, HSP27 and HSP20). The marked differences in the expression of selected proteins, including HSP27 and HSP20, were further confirmed by Western blot. Thus, we carried out full-scale screening of the protein changes in human heart failure and profiled proteins that may be critical in cardiac dysfunction for future mapping. 相似文献

Potential biomarkers for ischemic heart damage identified in mitochondrial proteins by comparative proteomics 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
We used proteomics to detect regional differences in protein expression levels from mitochondrial fractions of control, ischemia-reperfusion (IR), and ischemic preconditioned (IPC) rabbit hearts. Using 2-DE, we identified 25 mitochondrial proteins that were differentially expressed in the IR heart compared with the control and IPC hearts. For three of the spots, the expression patterns were confirmed by Western blotting analysis. These proteins included 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, prohibitin, 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase, adenosine triphosphate synthases, the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidoreductase, translation elongation factor, actin alpha, malate dehydrogenase, NADH dehydrogenase, pyruvate dehydrogenase and the voltage-dependent anion channel. Interestingly, most of these proteins are associated with the mitochondrial respiratory chain and energy metabolism. The successful use of multiple techniques, including 2-DE, MALDI-TOF-MS and Western blotting analysis demonstrates that proteomic analysis provides appropriate means for identifying cardiac markers for detection of ischemia-induced cardiac injury. 相似文献

The intracellular distribution of the glycolytic enzymes hexokinase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase and the pyruvate kinase isoenzymes type M1 and type M2 within unfertilized hen eggs was studied. Most of glycolytic enzyme activities were found in the yolk fraction; 8-24% of total glycolytic enzyme activities were found in the vitelline membrane fraction. However, the specific activities of these enzymes in the vitelline membrane fraction are 19-72-fold higher (U/mg protein) and 45-178-fold more concentrated (U/g wet weight) than in the yolk fraction. The study of intracellular localization of pyruvate kinase isoenzymes shows that the blastodisc, latebra and vitelline membrane contain only pyruvate kinase type M2, whereas pyruvate kinase types M1 and M2 are found in the egg yolk. The exclusive occurrence of pyruvate kinase type M2 in the blastodisc is consistent with the concept that this isoenzyme is involved in the cell proliferation. The heterogeneous distribution of the glycolytic enzymes hexokinase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and lactate dehydrogenase, and the heterogeneous localization of the pyruvate kinase isoenzymes types M1 and M2 indicate that glycolysis is distributed heterogeneously within the unfertilized hen egg cell. 相似文献

Proteomic analysis of mitochondrial proteins in cardiomyocytes from chronic stressed rat 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Chronic restraint stress induces cardiac dysfunction as well as cardiomyocyte injury including severe ultrastructural alteration and cell death, but its mechanism and molecular basis remain unclear. Mitochondria play a key role in regulating cell life. For exploring mitochondrial proteins which correlate with stress-induced injury, two-dimensional electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) were applied. After comparing the protein profiles of myocardial mitochondria between a chronic restraint stress group and a control group, 11 protein spots were found altered, seven of which were identified by MALDI-TOF MS. Among the seven proteins, five proteins involved in the Krebs cycle and lipid metabolism in mitochondria decreased after chronic restraint stress. They were identified as carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2, mitochondrial acyl-CoA thioesterase 1, isocitrate dehydrogenase 3 (NAD+) alpha, fumarate hydratase 1 and pyruvate dehydrogenase beta. The last two proteins, creatine kinase and prohibitin, increased after chronic restraint stress. Biochemical tests for energy metabolism in mitochondria also supported the proteomic results. These findings provide clues for understanding the mechanism of dysfunction or injury in cardiomyocytes induced by chronic stress. 相似文献

Elevated mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling contributes to the pathogenesis of diabetes, with increased morbidity and mortality, mainly because of cardiovascular complications. Because mTOR inhibition with rapamycin protects against ischemia/reperfusion injury, we hypothesized that rapamycin would prevent cardiac dysfunction associated with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We also investigated the possible mechanisms and novel protein targets involved in rapamycin-induced preservation of cardiac function in T2D mice. Adult male leptin receptor null, homozygous db/db, or wild type mice were treated daily for 28 days with vehicle (5% DMSO) or rapamycin (0.25 mg/kg, intraperitoneally). Cardiac function was monitored by echocardiography, and protein targets were identified by proteomics analysis. Rapamycin treatment significantly reduced body weight, heart weight, plasma glucose, triglyceride, and insulin levels in db/db mice. Fractional shortening was improved by rapamycin treatment in db/db mice. Oxidative stress as measured by glutathione levels and lipid peroxidation was significantly reduced in rapamycin-treated db/db hearts. Rapamycin blocked the enhanced phosphorylation of mTOR and S6, but not AKT in db/db hearts. Proteomic (by two-dimensional gel and mass spectrometry) and Western blot analyses identified significant changes in several cytoskeletal/contractile proteins (myosin light chain MLY2, myosin heavy chain 6, myosin-binding protein C), glucose metabolism proteins (pyruvate dehydrogenase E1, PYGB, Pgm2), and antioxidant proteins (peroxiredoxin 5, ferritin heavy chain 1) following rapamycin treatment in db/db heart. These results show that chronic rapamycin treatment prevents cardiac dysfunction in T2D mice, possibly through attenuation of oxidative stress and alteration of antioxidants and contractile as well as glucose metabolic protein expression. 相似文献

Proteomic analysis of mitochondria reveals a metabolic switch from fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis in the failing heart 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

This work characterizes the mitochondrial proteomic profile in the failing heart and elucidates the molecular basis of mitochondria in heart failure. Heart failure was induced in rats by myocardial infarction, and mitochondria were isolated from hearts by differential centrifugation. Using two-dimen- sional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry, a system biology approach was employed to investigate differences in mitochondrial proteins between normal and failing hearts. Mass spectrometry identified 27 proteins differentially expressed that involved in energy metabolism. Among those, the up-regulated proteins included tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymes and pyruvate dehydrogenase complex subunits while the down-regulated proteins were involved in fatty acid oxidation and the OXPHOS complex. These results suggest a substantial metabolic switch from free fatty acid oxidation to glycolysis in heart failure and provide molecular evidence for alterations in the structural and functional parameters of mitochondria that may contribute to cardiac dysfunction during ischemic injury. 相似文献
