Rokitskaya TI, Khailova LS, Korshunova GA, Antonenko YN. Efficiency of mitochondrial uncoupling by modified butyltriphenylphosphonium cations and fatty acids correlates with lipophilicity of cations: Protonophoric vs leakage mechanisms. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. BIOMEMBRANES 2023; 1865:184183. [PMID: 37286154 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamem.2023.184183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
In order to determine the share of protonophoric activity in the uncoupling action of lipophilic cations a number of analogues of butyltriphenylphosphonium with substitutions in phenyl rings (C4TPP-X) were studied on isolated rat liver mitochondria and model lipid membranes. An increase in the rate of respiration and a decrease in the membrane potential of isolated mitochondria were observed for all the studied cations, the efficiency of these processes was significantly enhanced in the presence of fatty acids and correlated with the octanol-water partition coefficient of the cations. The ability of C4TPP-X cations to induce proton transport across the lipid membrane of liposomes loaded with a pH-sensitive fluorescent dye increased also with their lipophilicity and depended on the presence of palmitic acid in the liposome membrane. Of all the cations, only butyl[tri(3,5-dimethylphenyl)]phosphonium (C4TPP-diMe) was able to induce proton transport by the mechanism of formation of a cation-fatty acid ion pair on planar bilayer lipid membranes and liposomes. The rate of oxygen consumption by mitochondria in the presence of C4TPP-diMe increased to the maximum values corresponding to conventional uncouplers; for all other cations the maximum uncoupling rates were significantly lower. We assume that the studied cations of the C4TPP-X series, with the exception of C4TPP-diMe at low concentrations, cause nonspecific leak of ions through lipid model and biological membranes which is significantly enhanced in the presence of fatty acids.

Abstract
Mitochondria of all tissues convert various metabolic substrates into two forms of energy: ATP and heat. Historically, the primary focus of research in mitochondrial bioenergetics was on the mechanisms of ATP production, while mitochondrial thermogenesis received significantly less attention. Nevertheless, mitochondrial heat production is crucial for the maintenance of body temperature, regulation of the pace of metabolism, and prevention of oxidative damage to mitochondria and the cell. In addition, mitochondrial thermogenesis has gained significance as a pharmacological target for treating metabolic disorders. Mitochondria produce heat as the result of H+ leak across their inner membrane. This review provides a critical assessment of the current field of mitochondrial H+ leak and thermogenesis, with a focus on the molecular mechanisms involved in the function and regulation of uncoupling protein 1 and the ADP/ATP carrier, the two proteins that mediate mitochondrial H+ leak.

Abstract
There has been an explosion of interest in the use of uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria in the treatment of several pathologies, including neurological ones. In this review, we analyzed all the mechanisms associated with mitochondrial uncoupling and the metabolic and signaling cascades triggered by uncouplers. We provide a full set of positive and negative effects that should be taken into account when using uncouplers in experiments and clinical practice.

Abstract
Mitochondria possess a Ca2+ transport system composed of separate Ca2+ influx and efflux pathways. Intramitochondrial Ca2+ concentrations regulate oxidative phosphorylation, required for cell function and survival, and mitochondrial redox balance, that participates in a myriad of signaling and damaging pathways. The interaction between Ca2+ accumulation and redox imbalance regulates opening and closing of a highly regulated inner membrane pore, the membrane permeability transition pore (PTP). In this review, we discuss the regulation of the PTP by mitochondrial oxidants, reactive nitrogen species, and the interactions between these species and other PTP inducers. In addition, we discuss the involvement of mitochondrial redox imbalance and PTP in metabolic conditions such as atherogenesis, diabetes, obesity and in mtDNA stability.

Abstract
Normally, the growth profile of a CHO cell fed-batch process can be divided into two main phases based on changes in cell concentration, being an exponential growth phase and a stationary (non-growth) phase. In this study, an additional phase is observed during which the cell division comes to a halt but the cell growth continues in the form of an increase in cell size. The cell size increase (SI) phase occurs between the exponential proliferation phase (also called the number increase or NI phase) and the stationary phase. During the SI phase, the average volume and dry weight per cell increase threefold linearly with time. The average mAb specific productivity per cell increases linearly with the cell volume and therefore is on average two times higher in the SI phase than in the NI phase. The specific essential amino acids consumption rates per cell remain fairly constant between the NI and the SI phase, which agrees with the similar biomass production rate per cell between these two phases. Accumulation of fatty acids and formation of lipid droplets in the cells are observed during the SI phase, indicating that the fatty acids synthesis rate exceeds the demand for the synthesis of membrane lipids. A metabolic comparison between NI and SI phase shows that the cells with a larger size produce more mAb per unit of O2 and nutrient consumed, which can be used for further process optimization.

Abstract
Mitochondrial oxidation of nutrients is tightly regulated in response to the cellular environment and changes in energy demands. In vitro studies evaluating the mitochondrial capacity of oxidizing different substrates are important for understanding metabolic shifts in physiological adaptations and pathological conditions, but may be influenced by the nutrients present in the culture medium or by the utilization of endogenous stores. One such influence is exemplified by the Crabtree effect (the glucose-mediated inhibition of mitochondrial respiration) as most in vitro experiments are performed in glucose-containing media. Here, using high-resolution respirometry, we evaluated the oxidation of endogenous or exogenous substrates by cell lines harboring different metabolic profiles. We found that a 1-h deprivation of the main energetic nutrients is an appropriate strategy to abolish interference of endogenous or undesirable exogenous substrates with the cellular capacity of oxidizing specific substrates, namely glutamine, pyruvate, glucose, or palmitate, in mitochondria. This approach primed mitochondria to immediately increase their oxygen consumption after the addition of the exogenous nutrients. All starved cells could oxidize exogenous glutamine, whereas the capacity for oxidizing palmitate was limited to human hepatocarcinoma Huh7 cells and to C2C12 mouse myoblasts that differentiated into myotubes. In the presence of exogenous glucose, starvation decreased the Crabtree effect in Huh7 and C2C12 cells and abrogated it in mouse neuroblastoma N2A cells. Interestingly, the fact that the Crabtree effect was observed only for mitochondrial basal respiration but not for the maximum respiratory capacity suggests it is not caused by a direct effect on the electron transport system.

Abstract
Cell cytoplasm of archaea, bacteria, and eukaryotes contains substantially more potassium than sodium, and potassium cations are specifically required for many key cellular processes, including protein synthesis. This distinct ionic composition and requirements have been attributed to the emergence of the first cells in potassium-rich habitats. Different, albeit complementary, scenarios have been proposed for the primordial potassium-rich environments based on experimental data and theoretical considerations. Specifically, building on the observation that potassium prevails over sodium in the vapor of inland geothermal systems, we have argued that the first cells could emerge in the pools and puddles at the periphery of primordial anoxic geothermal fields, where the elementary composition of the condensed vapor would resemble the internal milieu of modern cells. Marine and freshwater environments generally contain more sodium than potassium. Therefore, to invade such environments, while maintaining excess of potassium over sodium in the cytoplasm, primordial cells needed means to extrude sodium ions. The foray into new, sodium-rich habitats was the likely driving force behind the evolution of diverse redox-, light-, chemically-, or osmotically-dependent sodium export pumps and the increase of membrane tightness. Here we present a scenario that details how the interplay between several, initially independent sodium pumps might have triggered the evolution of sodium-dependent membrane bioenergetics, followed by the separate emergence of the proton-dependent bioenergetics in archaea and bacteria. We also discuss the development of systems that utilize the sodium/potassium gradient across the cell membranes.

Abstract
Cardiac aging is an intrinsic process that results in impaired cardiac function, along with cellular and molecular changes. These degenerative changes are intimately associated with quality control mechanisms. This review provides a general overview of the clinical and cellular changes which manifest in cardiac aging, and the quality control mechanisms involved in maintaining homeostasis and retarding aging. These mechanisms include autophagy, ubiquitin-mediated turnover, apoptosis, mitochondrial quality control and cardiac matrix homeostasis. Finally, we discuss aging interventions that have been observed to impact cardiac health outcomes. These include caloric restriction, rapamycin, resveratrol, GDF11, mitochondrial antioxidants and cardiolipin-targeted therapeutics. A greater understanding of the quality control mechanisms that promote cardiac homeostasis will help to understand the benefits of these interventions, and hopefully lead to further improved therapeutic modalities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-fat, low-carbohydrate diets are widely used for weight reduction, but they may also have detrimental effects via increased circulating free fatty acid concentrations. OBJECTIVE We tested whether raising plasma free fatty acids by using a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet results in alterations in heart and brain in healthy subjects. DESIGN Men (n = 16) aged 22 ± 1 y (mean ± SE) were randomly assigned to 5 d of a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet containing 75 ± 1% of calorie intake through fat consumption or to an isocaloric standard diet providing 23 ± 1% of calorie intake as fat. In a crossover design, subjects undertook the alternate diet after a 2-wk washout period, with results compared after the diet periods. Cardiac (31)P magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy and MR imaging, echocardiography, and computerized cognitive tests were used to assess cardiac phosphocreatine (PCr)/ATP, cardiac function, and cognitive function, respectively. RESULTS Compared with the standard diet, subjects who consumed the high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet had 44% higher plasma free fatty acids (P < 0.05), 9% lower cardiac PCr/ATP (P < 0.01), and no change in cardiac function. Cognitive tests showed impaired attention (P < 0.01), speed (P < 0.001), and mood (P < 0.01) after the high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet. CONCLUSION Raising plasma free fatty acids decreased myocardial PCr/ATP and reduced cognition, which suggests that a high-fat diet is detrimental to heart and brain in healthy subjects.

Abstract
The role of anaerobic glycolysis and oxidative substrate selection on contractile function and mechanical efficiency during moderate severity myocardial ischemia is unclear. We hypothesize that 1) preventing anaerobic glycolysis worsens contractile function and mechanical efficiency and 2) increasing glycolysis and glucose oxidation while inhibiting free fatty acid oxidation improves contractile function during ischemia. Experiments were performed in anesthetized pigs, with regional ischemia induced by a 60% decrease in left anterior descending coronary artery blood flow for 40 min. Three groups were studied: 1) no treatment, 2) inhibition of glycolysis with iodoacetate (IAA), or 3) hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia (HI + HG). Glucose and free fatty acid oxidation were measured using radioisotopes and anaerobic glycolysis from net lactate efflux and myocardial lactate content. Regional contractile power was assessed from left ventricular pressure and segment length in the anterior wall. We found that preventing anaerobic glycolysis with IAA during ischemia in the absence of alterations in free fatty acid and glucose oxidation did not adversely affect contractile function or mechanical efficiency during myocardial ischemia, suggesting that anaerobic glycolysis is not essential for maintaining residual contractile function. Increasing glycolysis and glucose oxidation with HI + HG inhibited free fatty acid oxidation and improved contractile function and mechanical efficiency. In conclusion, these results show a dissociation between myocardial function and anaerobic glycolysis during moderate severity ischemia in vivo, suggesting that metabolic therapies should not be aimed at inhibiting anaerobic glycolysis per se, but rather activating insulin signaling and/or enhancing carbohydrate oxidation and/or decreasing fatty acid oxidation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inhibition of myocardial fatty acid oxidation has been suggested as a therapeutic approach for improving cardiac function in chronic heart failure (HF). The novel piperazine derivative CVT-4325 was shown to inhibit fatty acid oxidation in cardiac mitochondria and in isolated perfused rat hearts. In the present study, we tested the hemodynamic and metabolic effects of acute intravenous CVT-4325 in dogs with HF. METHODS AND RESULTS HF (LV ejection fraction <or=35%) was created in eight dogs by multiple sequential intracoronary microembolizations. Treatment with CVT-4325 administered intravenously as 0.5 mg/kg bolus followed by a continuous infusion of 0.8 mg/kg/h for 40 min reduced free fatty acid (FFA) uptake (4.51+/-0.96 to 1.65+/-0.32 micromols/min, p<0.04), coronary blood flow (56+/-3 to 46+/-4 ml/min, p<0.01), and myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2) (240+/-23 to 172+/-7 micromols/min, p<0.03), and increased LV ejection fraction (30+/-2 to 37+/-1%, p<0.0001). In the same study, but on a different day, the same dogs were treated with an inactive analogue of CVT-4325 (CVT-2540), and no hemodynamic or metabolic effects were observed. CONCLUSIONS In dogs with HF, acute intravenous infusion of CVT-4325 reduces FFA uptake and improves LV systolic function without increasing MVO2. The improvement in LV systolic function in the absence of an increase in MVO2 and a lower FFA uptake is consistent with the concept that inhibition of myocardial fatty acid oxidation may be an effective treatment for HF.

Abstract
The cellular energy metabolism in human musculus gluteus medius (MGM) under normal conditions and hip osteoarthritis (OA) was explored. The functions of oxidative phosphorylation and energy transport systems were analyzed in permeabilized (skinned) muscle fibers by oxygraphy, in relation to myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoform distribution profile analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and to creatine kinase (CK) and adenylate kinase (AK) activities measured spectrophotometrically in the intact muscle. The results revealed high apparent Km for ADP in regulation of respiration that decreased after addition of creatine in MGM of traumatic patients (controls). OA was associated with increased sensitivity of mitochondrial respiration to ADP, decreased total activities of AK and CK with major reduction in mi-CK fraction, and attenuated effect of creatine on apparent Km for ADP compared with control group. It also included a complete loss of type II fibers in a subgroup of patients with the severest disease grade. It is concluded that energy metabolism in MGM cells is organized into functional complexes of mitochondria and ATPases. It is suggested that because of degenerative remodeling occurring during development of OA, these complexes become structurally and functionally impaired, which results in increased access of exogenous ADP to mitochondria and dysfunction of CK-phosphotransfer system.

Abstract
Kidney proximal tubules exhibit decreased ATP and reduced, but not absent, mitochondrial membrane potential (Deltapsi(m)) during reoxygenation after severe hypoxia. This energetic deficit, which plays a pivotal role in overall cellular recovery, cannot be explained by loss of mitochondrial membrane integrity, decreased electron transport, or compromised F1F0-ATPase and adenine nucleotide translocase activities. Addition of oleate to permeabilized tubules produced concentration-dependent decreases of Deltapsi(m) measured by safranin O uptake (threshold for oleate = 0.25 microM, 1.6 nmol/mg protein; maximal effect = 4 microM, 26 nmol/mg) that were reversed by delipidated BSA (dBSA). Cell nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) levels increased from <1 to 17.4 nmol/mg protein during 60- min hypoxia and remained elevated at 7.6 nmol/mg after 60 min reoxygenation, at which time ATP had recovered to only 10% of control values. Safranin O uptake in reoxygenated tubules, which was decreased 85% after 60-min hypoxia, was normalized by dBSA, which improved ATP synthesis as well. dBSA also almost completely normalized Deltapsi(m) when the duration of hypoxia was increased to 120 min. In intact tubules, the protective substrate combination of alpha-ketoglutarate + malate (alpha-KG/MAL) increased ATP three- to fourfold, limited NEFA accumulation during hypoxia by 50%, and lowered NEFA during reoxygenation. Notably, dBSA also improved ATP recovery when added to intact tubules during reoxygenation and was additive to the effect of alpha-KG/MAL. We conclude that NEFA overload is the primary cause of energetic failure of reoxygenated proximal tubules and lowering NEFA substantially contributes to the benefit from supplementation with alpha-KG/MAL.

Abstract
This paper considers stages of the search (initiated by V. P. Skulachev) for a receptor protein for fatty acids that is involved in their uncoupling effect. Based on these studies, mechanism of the ADP/ATP antiporter involvement in the uncoupling induced by fatty acids was proposed. New data (suppression by carboxyatractylate of the SDS-induced uncoupling, pH-dependence of the ADP/ATP and the glutamate/aspartate antiporter contributions to the uncoupling, etc.) led to modification of this hypothesis. During discussion of the uncoupling effect of fatty acids caused by opening of the Ca(2+)-dependent pore, special attention is given to the effects of carboxyatractylate added in the presence of ADP. The functioning of the uncoupling protein UCP2 in kidney mitochondria is considered, as well as the diversity observed by us in effects of 200 microM GDP on decrease in Deltapsi under the influence of oleic acid added after H(2)O(2) (in the presence of succinate, oligomycin, malonate). A speculative explanation of the findings is as follows: 1) products of lipid and/or fatty acid peroxidation (PPO) modify the ADP/ATP antiporter in such a way that its involvement in the fatty acid-induced uncoupling is suppressed by GDP; 2) GDP increases the PPO concentration in the matrix by suppression of efflux of fatty acid hydroperoxide anions through the UCP and/or of efflux of PPO anions with involvement of the GDP-sensitive ADP/ATP antiporter; 3) PPO can potentiate the oleate-induced decrease in Deltapsi due to inhibition of succinate oxidation.

Abstract
The alterations in myocardial energy substrate metabolism that occur in heart failure, and the causes and consequences of these abnormalities, are poorly understood. There is evidence to suggest that impaired substrate metabolism contributes to contractile dysfunction and to the progressive left ventricular remodeling that are characteristic of the heart failure state. The general concept that has recently emerged is that myocardial substrate selection is relatively normal during the early stages of heart failure; however, in the advanced stages there is a downregulation in fatty acid oxidation, increased glycolysis and glucose oxidation, reduced respiratory chain activity, and an impaired reserve for mitochondrial oxidative flux. This review discusses 1) the metabolic changes that occur in chronic heart failure, with emphasis on the mechanisms that regulate the changes in the expression of metabolic genes and the function of metabolic pathways; 2) the consequences of these metabolic changes on cardiac function; 3) the role of changes in myocardial substrate metabolism on ventricular remodeling and disease progression; and 4) the therapeutic potential of acute and long-term manipulation of cardiac substrate metabolism in heart failure.

Abstract
The primary effect of ischemia is reduced aerobic adenosine triphosphate (ATP) formation in mitochondria. This triggers accelerated glycolysis and reduced cell pH, Ca(2+) accumulation, K(+) efflux, adenosine formation, and the clinical signs of ischemia: chest pain and a shift in the ST segment. Traditional therapies for angina are aimed at either decreasing the need for ATP by suppressing heart rate, blood pressure, and cardiac contractility, or at increasing oxygen delivery to the mitochondria, or both. An additional approach to treating angina is to suppress myocardial fatty acid oxidation, increase pyruvate oxidation, and reduce anaerobic glycolysis. High fatty acid levels result in oxygen wasting and inhibit the oxidation of pyruvate in the mitochondria. In experimental models, the partial inhibition of myocardial fatty acid oxidation with agents such as oxfenicine, ranolazine, and trimetazidine stimulates glucose oxidation and reduces lactate production during ischemia. Clinical studies demonstrate that this approach is as effective as traditional hemodynamic therapies at improving exercise tolerance and reducing the frequency of angina. Moreover, because these agents do not suppress heart rate, blood pressure, or contractility, they are effective as add-on therapy to Ca(2+)-channel and beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists.

Abstract
High plasma level of triglycerides (TGs) is a common feature in atherosclerosis, obesity, diabetes, alcoholism, stress, and infection. Since mitochondria have been implicated in cell death under a variety of metabolic disorders, we examined liver mitochondrial functions in hypertriglyceridemic transgenic mice. Hypertriglyceridemia increased resting respiration and predisposed to mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). Ciprofibrate therapy reduced plasma TG levels, normalized respiration, and prevented MPT. The higher resting respiration in transgenic mitochondria remained in the presence of the adenine nucleotide carrier inhibitor, carboxyatractyloside, bovine serum albumin, and the uncoupling proteins (UCPs) inhibitor, GDP. UCP2 content was similar in both control and transgenic mitochondria. We propose that faster resting respiration represents a regulated adaptation to oxidize excess free fatty acid in the transgenic mice.

Abstract
Metabolic interventions improve performance during demand-induced ischemia by reducing myocardial lactate production and improving regional systolic function. We tested the hypotheses that 1) stimulation of glycolysis would increase lactate production and improve ventricular wall motion, and 2) the addition of fatty acid oxidation inhibition would reduce lactate production and further improve contractile function. Measurements were made in anesthetized open-chest swine hearts. Three groups, hyperglycemia (HG), HG + oxfenicine (HG + Oxf), and control (CTRL), were treated under aerobic conditions and during demand-induced ischemia. During demand-induced ischemia, HG resulted in greater lactate production and tissue lactate content but had no significant effect on glucose oxidation. HG + Oxf significantly lowered lactate production and increased glucose oxidation compared with both the CTRL and HG groups. Myocardial energy efficiency was greater in the HG and HG + Oxf groups under aerobic conditions but did not change during demand-induced ischemia. Thus enhanced glycolysis resulted in increased energy efficiency under aerobic conditions but significantly enhanced lactate production with no further improvement in function during demand-induced ischemia. Partial inhibition of free fatty acid oxidation in the presence of accelerated glycolysis increased energy efficiency under aerobic conditions and significantly reduced lactate production and enhanced glucose oxidation during demand-induced ischemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormalities of energy metabolism are often cited as key elements in the progressive worsening of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction that characterizes the heart failure (HF) state. The present study tested the hypothesis that partial inhibition of fatty acids will ameliorate the hemodynamic abnormalities associated with HF. METHODS AND RESULTS Chronic HF (LV ejection fraction 27 +/- 1%) was produced in 13 dogs by intracoronary microembolizations. Hemodynamic and angiographic measurements were made before and 40 minutes after intravenous administration of ranolazine, a partial fatty acid oxidation (pFOX) inhibitor. Ranolazine was administered as an intravenous bolus dose of 0.5 mg/kg followed by a continuous infusion for 40 minutes at a constant rate of 1.0 mg / kg / hr. Ranolazine significantly increased LV ejection fraction (27 +/- 1 versus 36 +/- 2, P =.0001), peak LV +dP/dt (1712 +/- 122 versus 1900 +/- 112 mm Hg/sec, P =.001), and stroke volume (20 +/- 1 versus 26 +/- 1 mL). These improvements occurred in the absence of any effects on heart rate or systemic pressure. In 8 normal healthy dogs, ranolazine had no effect on LV ejection fraction or any other index of LV function. CONCLUSIONS In dogs with HF, acute intravenous administration of the pFOX inhibitor ranolazine improves LV systolic function. The absence of any hemodynamic effects of ranolazine in normal dogs suggests that the drug is devoid of any positive inotropic effects and acts primarily by optimizing cardiac metabolism in the setting of chronic HF.
