Iron is an essential element for crucial biological function; whereas excess iron sedimentation impairs the main functions of tissues or organs. Cumulative researches have shown that the disturbances in iron metabolism, especially iron overload is closely concatenating with bone loss. Nevertheless, the specific process of iron overload-induced apoptosis in osteoblasts has not been thoroughly studied. In this study, our purpose is to elucidate the mechanism of osteoblast apoptosis induced by iron overload via the MC3T3-E1 cell line. Ferric ammonium citrate (FAC) was utilized to simulate iron overload conditions in vitro. These results showed that treatment with FAC dose-dependently induced the apoptosis of MC3T3-E1 cells at 48 h, dysfunction of iron metabolism, and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Following, FAC does-dependently caused the calcium dyshomeostasis, decreased the calcium concentration in endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but increased the crosstalk between ER and mitochondria, and calcium concentration in the mitochondria. Moreover, FAC dose-dependently decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and enhanced the expression of apoptosis related proteins (Bax, Cyto-C and C-caspase3). We furthermore revealed that FAC treatment activated the ER-mediated cell apoptosis via p-eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway in MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts cells. In addition, pretreatment with the N-acetylcysteine (NAC) or Tauroursodeoxycholate Sodium (TUDC) attenuated cell apoptosis, ROS levels, mitochondria fragmentation and ER stress-related protein expression, and recovered the protein expression related to iron metabolism. In conclusion, our finding suggested that iron overload induced apoptosis via eliciting ER stress, which resulted in mitochondrial dysfunction and activated p-eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway. 相似文献

Procaspase-activating compound-1 (PAC-1) is the first direct caspase-activating compound discovered; using an in vitro cell-free system of caspase activation. Subsequently, this compound was shown to induce apoptosis in a variety of cancer cells with promising in vivo antitumor activity in canine lymphoma model. Recently, we have reported its ability to kill drug-resistant, Bcl-2/Bcl-xL overexpressing and Bax/Bak-deficient cells despite the essential requirement of mitochondrial cytochrome c (cyt. c) release for caspase activation, indicating that the key molecular targets of PAC-1 in cancer cells are yet to be identified. Here, we have identified Ero1α-dependent endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium leakage to mitochondria through mitochondria-associated ER membranes (MAM) and ER luminal hyper-oxidation as the critical events of PAC-1-mediated cell death. PAC-1 treatment upregulated Ero1α in multiple cell lines, whereas silencing of Ero1α significantly inhibited calcium release from ER and cell death. Loss of ER calcium and hyper-oxidation of ER lumen by Ero1α collectively triggered ER stress. Upregulation of GRP78 and splicing of X-box-binding protein 1 (XBP1) mRNA in multiple cancer cells suggested ER stress as the general event triggered by PAC-1. XBP1 mRNA splicing and GRP78 upregulation confirmed ER stress even in Bax/Bak double knockout and PAC-1-resistant Apaf-1-knockout cells, indicating an induction of ER stress-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis by PAC-1. Furthermore, we identified BH3-only protein p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA) as the key molecular link that orchestrates overwhelmed ER stress to mitochondria-mediated apoptosis, involving mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, in a p53-independent manner. Silencing of PUMA in cancer cells effectively reduced cyt. c release and cell death by PAC-1. 相似文献

α-Mannosidosis is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by α-mannosidase deficiency. Clinical course of the disease ranges from severe infantile to milder juvenile type and includes
mental retardation, skeletal deformities, coarse facies, hepatomegaly and hearing loss. The aim of the study was to analyse
mitochondrial ultrastructure and function in cultivated fibroblasts from three patients with α-mannosidosis. All patients were homozygous for the c.2248C>T mutation in the MAN2B1 gene encoding lysosomal α-mannosidase. The mutation results in incorrect protein folding and severe decrease of α-mannosidase activity. The misfolded protein is retained by the control system of endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In analysed
fibroblasts, we observed dilated ER, higher amount of aberrant mitochondria and reduced mitochondrial mass compared to controls.
Respiratory chain complex IV, cytochrome c oxidase (COX), activity and the ratio between COX and citrate synthase (control enzyme) were significantly increased in comparison
to controls (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the activity at least from one of other respiratory chain complexes was increased in each studied cell
line. Mitochondrial membrane potential as well as reactive oxygen species production were comparable with controls. Based
on our results, we hypothesize more profound effect of swelled and damaged mitochondria and ER dilatation on tissues with
higher energy demand than fibroblasts have. 相似文献

The outer mitochondrial membrane protein VDAC interacts with the ER protein IP3R via chaperone Grp75 to form a molecular complex that couples mitochondria to the ER and contributes to functional mitochondria-ER contacts (MERCs), essential for efficient calcium (Ca2+) transfer. A new study by Liu et al. identifies the PD protein DJ-1 as a component of the IP3R-Grp75-VDAC complex. DJ-1 ablation impairs mitochondria-ER association and Ca2+ crosstalk, and impacts the stability of the trio. 相似文献

Neurologic disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is ultimately refractory to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) because of failure of complete virus eradication in the central nervous system (CNS), and disruption of normal neural signaling events by virally induced chronic neuroinflammation. We have previously reported that HIV-1 Tat can induce mitochondrial hyperpolarization in cortical neurons, thus compromising the ability of the neuron to buffer calcium and sustain energy production for normal synaptic communication. In this report, we demonstrate that Tat induces rapid loss of ER calcium mediated by the ryanodine receptor (RyR), followed by the unfolded protein response (UPR) and pathologic dilatation of the ER in cortical neurons in vitro. RyR antagonism attenuated both Tat-mediated mitochondrial hyperpolarization and UPR induction. Delivery of Tat to murine CNS in vivo also leads to long-lasting pathologic ER dilatation and mitochondrial morphologic abnormalities. Finally, we performed ultrastructural studies that demonstrated mitochondria with abnormal morphology and dilated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in brain tissue of patients with HIV-1 inflammation and neurodegeneration. Collectively, these data suggest that abnormal RyR signaling mediates the neuronal UPR with failure of mitochondrial energy metabolism, and is a critical locus for the neuropathogenesis of HIV-1 in the CNS. 相似文献

The influence of pH on the kinetics of the initial rate of calcium uptake by isolated kidney mitochondria was studied using the ruthenium red-ethylene glycol bis(β-aminoethyl ether) N,N-tetraacetic acid quench method (K. Reed and F. Bygrave, 1975, Eur. J. Biochem.55, 497–504). In the absence of phosphate, the Km is increased 50% and the V is decreased 57% when the pH is decreased from pH 7.4 to 7.0. Conversely, when the pH is increased to 7.8, the Km is decreased 25% while the V is not affected. The presence of 0.1 or 0.4 mm phosphate in the incubation medium abolishes the change in Km at a low pH while the V remains depressed by 36 and 25%, respectively. The presence of phosphate does not affect the decrease in the Km seen with an increased medium pH. Mitochondria incubated in steady-state conditions with a medium free calcium of 0.7 μm also show significant changes in calcium exchange and distribution with pH. Two kinetic calcium pools are found in isolated mitochondria. Decreasing pH from 7.4 to 7.1 decreases mitochondria total calcium 32%, decreases the rapidly exchanging pool 28%, and depresses both the mitochondrial membrane and an intramitochondrial calcium exchange by 54 and 22%, respectively. Raising the pH to 7.7 increases both exchangeable pools (63 and 46%), and increases the mitochondrial membrane calcium exchange 44%. These results are consistent with previous studies on the influence of intracellular pH on calcium metabolism of kidney cells in which the mitochondrial pool was markedly affected by pH (R. Studer, and A. Borle, 1979, J. Membrane Biol.48, 325–341). Alterations in cellular pH may modify mitochondrial calcium transport and cellular calcium metabolism and thus affect cell functions which are calcium dependent. 相似文献

In two siblings we found a mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, characterized by developmental delay, hemiplegia, convulsions, asymmetrical brain atrophy, and low cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity in skeletal muscle. The disease locus was identified on chromosome 2 by homozygosity mapping; candidate genes were prioritized for their known or predicted mitochondrial localization and then sequenced in probands and controls. A homozygous nonsense mutation in the KIAA0971 gene segregated with the disease in the proband family. The corresponding protein is known as fas activated serine-threonine kinase domain 2, FASTKD2. Confocal immunofluorescence colocalized a tagged recombinant FASTKD2 protein with mitochondrial markers, and membrane-potential-dependent in vitro mitochondrial import was demonstrated in isolated mitochondria. In staurosporine-induced-apoptosis experiments, decreased nuclear fragmentation was detected in treated mutant versus control fibroblasts. In conclusion, we found a loss-of-function mutation in a gene segregating with a peculiar mitochondrial encephalomyopathy associated with COX deficiency in skeletal muscle. The corresponding protein is localized in the mitochondrial inner compartment. Preliminary data indicate that FASTKD2 plays a role in mitochondrial apoptosis. 相似文献

The assembling of distinct signaling protein complexes at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane controls several stress responses related to calcium homeostasis, autophagy, ER morphogenesis and protein folding. Diverse pathological conditions interfere with the function of the ER altering protein folding, a condition known as “ER stress”. Adaptation to ER stress depends on the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) and protein degradation pathways such as autophagy. Under chronic or irreversible ER stress, cells undergo apoptosis, where the BCL-2 protein family plays a crucial role at the mitochondria to trigger cytochrome c release and apoptosome assembly. Several BCL2 family members also regulate physiological processes at the ER through dynamic interactomes. Here we provide a comprehensive view of the roles of the BCL-2 family of proteins in mediating the molecular crosstalk between the ER and mitochondria to initiate apoptosis, in addition to their emerging functions in adaptation to stress, including autophagy, UPR, calcium homeostasis and organelle morphogenesis. We envision a model where BCL-2-containing complexes may operate as stress rheostats that, beyond their known apoptosis functions at the mitochondria, determine the amplitude and kinetics of adaptive responses against ER-related injuries.

To elucidate the mechanism of interorganelle sterol transport, a system to evaluate sterol transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the mitochondria was constructed. A bacterial glycerophospholipid: cholesterol acyltransferase fused with a mitochondria-targeting sequence and a membrane-spanning domain of the mitochondrial inner membrane protein Pet100 and enhanced green fluorescent protein was expressed in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant deleted for ARE1 and ARE2 encoding acyl-CoA:sterol acyltransferases. Microscopic observation and subcellular fractionation suggested that this fusion protein, which was named mito-SatA-EGFP, was localized in the mitochondria. Steryl esters were synthesized in the mutant expressing mito-SatA-EGFP. This system will be applicable for evaluations of sterol transport from the ER to the mitochondria in yeast by examining sterol esterification in the mitochondria. 相似文献

Deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme succinyl COA ligase (SUCL) is associated with encephalomyopathic mtDNA depletion syndrome and methylmalonic aciduria. This disorder is caused by mutations in both SUCL subunits genes: SUCLG1 (α subnit) and SUCLA2 (β subnit). We report here, two Tunisian patients belonging to a consanguineous family with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, hearing loss, lactic acidosis, hypotonia, psychomotor retardation and methylmalonic aciduria. Mutational analysis of SUCLG1 gene showed, for the first time, the presence of c.41T > C in the exon 1 at homozygous state. In-silico analysis revealed that this mutation substitutes a conserved methionine residue to a threonine at position 14 (p.M14T) located at the SUCLG1 protein mitochondrial targeting sequence. Moreover, these analysis predicted that this mutation alter stability structure and mitochondrial translocation of the protein. In Addition, a decrease in mtDNA copy number was revealed by real time PCR in the peripheral blood leukocytes in the two patients compared with controls. 相似文献

Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) is a late endosomal transmembrane protein, which, together with NPC2 in the endosome lumen, mediates the transport of endosomal cholesterol to the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum. Loss of function of NPC1 or NPC2 leads to cholesterol accumulation in late endosomes and causes neuronal dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Recent studies indicate that cholesterol also accumulates in mitochondria of NPC1-deficient cells and brain tissue and that NPC1 deficiency leads to alterations in mitochondrial function and energy metabolism. Here, we have investigated the effects of increased mitochondrial cholesterol levels on energy metabolism, using RNA interference to deplete Chinese hamster ovary cells of NPC1 alone or in combination with MLN64, which mediates endosomal cholesterol transport to mitochondria. Mitochondrial cholesterol levels were also altered by depletion of NPC2 in combination with the expression of NPC2 mutants. We found that the depletion of NPC1 increased lactate secretion, decreased glutamine-dependent mitochondrial respiration, and decreased ATP transport across mitochondrial membranes. These metabolic alterations did not occur when transport of endosomal cholesterol to mitochondria was blocked. In addition, the elevated mitochondrial cholesterol levels in NPC1-depleted cells and in NPC2-depleted cells expressing mutant NPC2 that allows endosomal cholesterol trafficking to mitochondria were associated with increased expression of the antioxidant response factor Nrf2. Antioxidant treatment not only prevented the increase in Nrf2 mRNA levels but also prevented the increased lactate secretion in NPC1-depleted cells. These results suggest that mitochondrial cholesterol accumulation can increase oxidative stress and in turn cause increased glycolysis to lactate and other metabolic alterations. 相似文献

Severe combined deficiency of the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases, associated with a defect in lipoate synthesis and accompanied by defects in complexes I, II, and III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome with no obvious causative gene defect. A candidate locus for this syndrome was mapped to chromosomal region 2p14 by microcell-mediated chromosome transfer in two unrelated families. Unexpectedly, analysis of genes in this area identified mutations in two different genes, both of which are involved in [Fe-S] cluster biogenesis. A homozygous missense mutation, c.545G>A, near the splice donor of exon 6 in NFU1 predicting a p.Arg182Gln substitution was found in one of the families. The mutation results in abnormal mRNA splicing of exon 6, and no mature protein could be detected in fibroblast mitochondria. A single base-pair duplication c.123dupA was identified in BOLA3 in the second family, causing a frame shift that produces a premature stop codon (p.Glu42Argfs∗13). Transduction of fibroblast lines with retroviral vectors expressing the mitochondrial, but not the cytosolic isoform of NFU1 and with isoform 1, but not isoform 2 of BOLA3 restored both respiratory chain function and oxoacid dehydrogenase complexes. NFU1 was previously proposed to be an alternative scaffold to ISCU for the biogenesis of [Fe-S] centers in mitochondria, and the function of BOLA3 was previously unknown. Our results demonstrate that both play essential roles in the production of [Fe-S] centers for the normal maturation of lipoate-containing 2-oxoacid dehydrogenases, and for the assembly of the respiratory chain complexes. 相似文献

In the genetic disease cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common mutation F508del promotes the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention of misfolded CF proteins. Furthermore, in homozygous F508del-CFTR airway epithelial cells, the histamine Ca2+ mobilization is abnormally increased. Because the uptake of Ca2+ by mitochondria during Ca2+ influx or Ca2+ release from ER stores may be crucial for maintaining a normal Ca2+ homeostasis, we compared the mitochondria morphology and distribution by transmission electron microscopy technique and the mitochondria membrane potential variation (ΔΨmit) using a fluorescent probe (TMRE) on human CF (CF-KM4) and non-CF (MM39) tracheal serous gland cell lines. Confocal imaging of Rhod-2–AM-loaded or of the mitochondrial targeted cameleon 4mtD3cpv-transfected human CF and non-CF cells, were used to examine the ability of mitochondria to sequester intracellular Ca2+. The present study reveals that (i) the mitochondria network is fragmented in F508del-CFTR cells, (ii) the ΔΨmit of CF mitochondria is depolarized compared non-CF mitochondria, and (iii) the CF mitochondria Ca2+ uptake is reduced compared non-CF cells. We propose that these defects in airway epithelial F508del-CFTR cells are the consequence of mitochondrial membrane depolarization leading to a deficient mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake. 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria are interconnected intracellular organelles with vital roles in the regulation of cell signaling and function. While the ER participates in a number of biological processes including lipid biosynthesis, Ca2+ storage and protein folding and processing, mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles governing ATP synthesis, free radical production, innate immunity and apoptosis. Interplay between the ER and mitochondria plays a crucial role in regulating energy metabolism and cell fate control under stress. The mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) denote physical contact sites between ER and mitochondria that mediate bidirectional communications between the two organelles. Although Ca2+ transport from ER to mitochondria is vital for mitochondrial homeostasis and energy metabolism, unrestrained Ca2+ transfer may result in mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, mitochondrial damage and cell death. Here we summarize the roles of MAMs in cell physiology and its impact in pathological conditions with a focus on cardiovascular disease. The possibility of manipulating ER-mitochondria contacts as potential therapeutic approaches is also discussed.Subject terms: Cardiovascular diseases, Cardiomyopathies 相似文献

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria are structurally connected with each other at specific sites termed mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs). These physical links are composed of several tethering proteins and are important during varied cellular processes, such as calcium homeostasis, lipid metabolism and transport, membrane biogenesis, and organelle remodeling. However, the attributes of specific tethering proteins in these cellular functions remain debatable. Here, we present data to show that one such tether protein, glucose regulated protein 75 (GRP75), is essential in increasing ER–mitochondria contact during palmitate-induced apoptosis in pancreatic insulinoma cells. We demonstrate that palmitate increased GRP75 levels in mouse and rat pancreatic insulinoma cells as well as in mouse primary islet cells. This was associated with increased mitochondrial Ca2+ transfer, impaired mitochondrial membrane potential, increased ROS production, and enhanced physical coupling between the ER and mitochondria. Interestingly, GRP75 inhibition prevented these palmitate-induced cellular aberrations. Additionally, GRP75 overexpression alone was sufficient to impair mitochondrial membrane potential, increase mitochondrial Ca2+ levels and ROS generation, augment ER–mitochondria contact, and induce apoptosis in these cells. In vivo injection of palmitate induced hyperglycemia and hypertriglyceridemia, as well as impaired glucose and insulin tolerance in mice. These animals also exhibited elevated GRP75 levels accompanied by enhanced apoptosis within the pancreatic islets. Our findings suggest that GRP75 is critical in mediating palmitate-induced ER–mitochondrial interaction leading to apoptosis in pancreatic islet cells. 相似文献

Proper function of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria is crucial for cellular homeostasis, and dysfunction at either site as well as perturbation of mitochondria-associated ER membranes (MAMs) have been linked to neurodegenerative and metabolic diseases. Previously, we have observed an increase in ROS and apoptosis levels in patient-derived fibroblasts with remethylation disorders causing homocystinuria. Here we show increased mRNA and protein levels of Herp, Grp78, IP3R1, pPERK, ATF4, CHOP, asparagine synthase and GADD45 in patient-derived fibroblasts suggesting ER stress and calcium perturbations in homocystinuria. In addition, overexpressed MAM-associated proteins (Grp75, σ-1R and Mfn2) were found in these cells that could result in mitochondrial calcium overload and oxidative stress increase. Our results also show an activation of autophagy process and a substantial degradation of altered mitochondria by mitophagy in patient-derived fibroblasts. Moreover, we have observed that autophagy was partially abolished by antioxidants suggesting that ROS participate in this process that may have a protective role. Our findings argue that alterations in Ca2+ homeostasis and autophagy may contribute to the development of this metabolic disorder and suggest a therapeutic potential in homocystinuria for agents that stabilize calcium homeostasis and/or restore the proper function of ER-mitochondria communications. 相似文献

Mitochondria are dynamic cellular organelles that balance fission and fusion to regulate organelle morphology, distribution, and activity, and Opa1 is one of three GTPases known to regulate mitochondrial fusion. In humans, loss of a single Opa1 allele causes dominant optic atrophy, a degenerative condition that leads to loss of vision. Here we demonstrate that the lilR3 mutant mouse phenotype is due to a point mutation in the Opa1 gene resulting in mislocalized Opa1 protein from the mitochondria to the cytosol. Importantly, the mutation is in the middle domain of the Opa1 protein, for which no function had been described. Lack of mitochondrial retention of Opa1 is sufficient to cause the cellular Opa1 loss-of-function phenotype as the mitochondria are fragmented, indicating an inability to fuse. Despite the normally ubiquitous expression of Opa1 and the essential nature of mitochondria, embryos with aberrant Opa1 survived through midgestation and died at E11.5. These mutants displayed growth retardation, exencephaly, and abnormal patterning along the anterior-posterior axis, although the A–P axis itself was intact. The complex relationship between mitochondrial dynamics and cell death is emphasized by apoptosis in specific cell populations of lilR3 embryos. Our results define, for the first time, a function of the middle domain of the Opa1 protein and demonstrate that mitochondrial retention of Opa1 protein is essential for normal embryogenesis. 相似文献
