Abstract
Postovulatory aging of oocytes involves a series of deleterious molecular and cellular changes, which adversely affect oocyte maturation, fertilization, and early embryonic development. Petunidin-3-O-(6-O-pcoumaroyl)-rutinoside-5-O-glucoside (PrG), the main active ingredient of anthocyanin, exerts antioxidant effects. This study investigated whether PrG supplementation could delay postovulatory oocyte aging by alleviating oxidative stress. Our results showed that PrG supplementation decreased the number of abnormal morphology oocytes and improved the oxidative stress of aged oocytes by facilitating the reduction of the reactive oxygen species, the increase in glutathione content, and the recovery of expression of antioxidant-related gene expression. In addition, PrG treatment recovered mitochondrial dysfunction, including mitochondrial distribution, mitochondrial membrane potential and adenosine triphosphate in aged oocytes. PrG-treated oocytes returned to normal levels of cytoplasmic and mitochondrial calcium. Notably, PrG inhibited early apoptosis in aged oocytes. RNA-seq and qRT-PCR results revealed that PrG ameliorated oxidative stress injury in postovulatory aging oocytes of mice via the putrescine pathway. In conclusion, in vitro PrG supplementation is a potential therapy for delaying postovulatory oocyte aging.

Ruthenium red alleviates post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction by upregulating mitophagy through inhibition of USP33 in a cardiac arrest rat model. Eur J Pharmacol 2024; 974:176633. [PMID: 38703975 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 04/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
Cardiac arrest (CA) remains a leading cause of death, with suboptimal survival rates despite efforts involving cardiopulmonary resuscitation and advanced life-support technology. Post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction (PRMD) is an important determinant of patient outcomes. Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury underlies this dysfunction. Previous reports have shown that ruthenium red (RR) has a protective effect against cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury; however, its precise mechanism of action in PRMD remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of RR on PRMD and analyzed its underlying mechanisms. Ventricular fibrillation was induced in rats, which were then subjected to cardiopulmonary resuscitation to establish an experimental CA model. At the onset of return of spontaneous circulation, RR (2.5 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally. Our study showed that RR improved myocardial function and reduced the production of oxidative stress markers such as malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSSG), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. RR also helped maintain mitochondrial structure and increased ATP and GTP levels. Additionally, RR effectively attenuated myocardial apoptosis. Furthermore, we observed downregulation of proteins closely related to mitophagy, including ubiquitin-specific protease 33 (USP33) and P62, whereas LC3B (microtubule-associated protein light chain 3B) was upregulated. The upregulation of mitophagy may play a critical role in reducing myocardial injury. These results demonstrate that RR may attenuate PRMD by promoting mitophagy through the inhibition of USP33. These effects are likely mediated through diverse mechanisms, including antioxidant activity, apoptosis suppression, and preservation of mitochondrial integrity and energy metabolism. Consequently, RR has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for addressing post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction.

Abstract
The role of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) in energy dysfunction and hypertrophy in heart failure (HF) remains unknown. In angiotensin II (ANGII)-induced hypertrophic cardiac cells we have shown that hypertrophic cells overexpress MCU and present bioenergetic dysfunction. However, by silencing MCU, cell hypertrophy and mitochondrial dysfunction are prevented by blocking mitochondrial calcium overload, increase mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, and activation of nuclear factor kappa B-dependent hypertrophic and proinflammatory signaling. Moreover, we identified a calcium/calmodulin-independent protein kinase II/cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element-binding protein signaling modulating MCU upregulation by ANGII. Additionally, we found upregulation of MCU in ANGII-induced left ventricular HF in mice, and in the LV of HF patients, which was correlated with pathological remodeling. Following left ventricular assist device implantation, MCU expression decreased, suggesting tissue plasticity to modulate MCU expression.

Abstract
Background Doxorubicin (Dox) is effective against different types of cancers, but it poses cardiotoxic side effects, frequently resulting in irreversible heart failure. However, the complexities surrounding this cardiotoxicity, especially at sublethal dosages, remain to be fully elucidated. We investigated early cellular disruptions in response to sublethal Dox, with a specific emphasis on the role of phosphorylated calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) in initiating mitochondrial dysfunction. Methods This study utilized the H9c2 cardiomyocyte model to identify a sublethal concentration of Dox and investigate its impact on mitochondrial health using markers such as mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), mitophagy initiation, and mitochondrial calcium dynamics. We examined the roles of and interactions between CaMKII, dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), and the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) in Dox-induced mitochondrial disruption using specific inhibitors, such as KN-93, Mdivi-1, and Ru360, respectively. Results Exposure to a sublethal dose of Dox reduced the MMP red-to-green fluorescence ratio in H9c2 cells by 40.6% compared with vehicle, and increased the proportion of cells undergoing mitophagy from negligible levels compared with vehicle to 62.2%. Mitochondrial calcium levels also increased by 8.7-fold compared with the vehicle group. Notably, the activation of CaMKII, particularly its phosphorylated form, was pivotal in driving these mitochondrial changes, as inhibition using KN-93 restored MMP and decreased mitophagy. However, inhibition of Drp1 and MCU functions had a limited impact on the observed mitochondrial disruptions. Conclusion Sublethal administration of Dox is closely linked to CaMKII activation through phosphorylation, emphasizing its pivotal role in early mitochondrial disruption. These findings present a promising direction for developing therapeutic strategies that may alleviate the cardiotoxic effects of Dox, potentially increasing its clinical efficacy.

Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 208:748-758. [PMID: 37774805 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.09.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) regulates glycolipid metabolism and insulin homeostasis and acts as a cardioprotective factor by protecting against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, hypertension, and vascular dysfunction. FGF21 has been reported to prevent Doxorubicin (Dox)-induced cardiotoxicity, and the related signaling pathway is worthy of further study. Connexin43 (Cx43) protein was reduced by Dox treatment, especially low phosphorylated form of Cx43. Thus the aim of study is to explore the protection effect of FGF21 on Dox induced cardiotoxicity by improving the expression of Cx43 and the involved signaling pathway. METHODS AND RESULTS FGF21 inhibited apoptosis in Dox-treated mice and cardiomyocytes. FGF21 increased the levels of connexin43 phosphorylated at serine (S) 282 (p-Cx43 S282) and total Cx43 to inhibit Dox-induced apoptosis. By RNA sequencing, we found that deubiquitinase monocyte chemoattractant protein-induced protein 1 (MCPIP1) expression was increased by FGF21. We further found that FGF21 induced the phosphorylation of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1), extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (Erk1/2), and Elk. Phosphorylated Elk translocated to the nucleus and increased the expression of MCPIP1. Then, MCPIP1 bound neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated protein 4 (Nedd4), an E3 ubiquitination ligase, as shown by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), and suppressed Cx43 ubiquitination and degradation, competitively inhibiting the binding of Cx43 with Nedd4. Thus Nedd4 could not bind and ubiquitinate Cx43, leading to the up-regulation of Cx43 and phosphorylation of Cx43 at S282. CONCLUSIONS FGF21 inhibited the effects of Dox on cardiomyocytes by elevating the phosphorylation of Cx43 at S282 and total Cx43 expression. This study suggests a previously unknown mechanism for the FGF21-mediated enhancement of cardiomyocyte survival and provides an effective approach to protect against the adverse cardiac effects of Dox.

Abstract
Heart failure is a serious global health challenge, affecting more than 6.2 million people in the United States and is projected to reach over 8 million by 2030. Independent of etiology, failing hearts share common features, including defective calcium (Ca2+) handling, mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, and oxidative stress. In cardiomyocytes, Ca2+ not only regulates excitation-contraction coupling, but also mitochondrial metabolism and oxidative stress signaling, thereby controlling the function and actual destiny of the cell. Understanding the mechanisms of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake and the molecular pathways involved in the regulation of increased mitochondrial Ca2+ influx is an ongoing challenge in order to identify novel therapeutic targets to alleviate the burden of heart failure. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms underlying altered mitochondrial Ca2+ handling in heart failure and the potential therapeutic strategies.

Trimetazidine Affects Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter Expression to Restore Ischemic Heart Function via Reactive Oxygen Species/NFκB Pathway Inhibition. J Cardiovasc Pharmacol 2023; 82:104-116.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Studies have demonstrated the roles of trimetazidine beyond being an antianginal agent in ischemic heart disease (IHD) treatment associated with mechanisms of calcium regulation. Our recent studies revealed that mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU, the pore-forming unit responsible for mitochondrial calcium entrance) inhibition provided cardioprotective effects for failing hearts. Because trimetazidine and MCU are associated with calcium homeostasis, we hypothesized that trimetazidine may affect MCU to restore the failing heart function. In the present study, we tested this hypothesis in the context of cardiac ischemia in vivo and in vitro. The IHD model was established in male C57BL/6 mice followed by trimetazidine administration intraperitoneally at 20 mg/kg q.o.d for 8 weeks. In vitro studies were performed in a hypoxia model using primary rat neonate cardiomyocytes. The mice survival outcomes and heart function, pathohistologic, and biological changes were analyzed. The results demonstrated that trimetazidine treatment resulted in longer life spans and heart function improvement accompanied by restoration of mitochondrial calcium levels and increase in ATP production via MCU down-regulation. Studies in vitro further showed that trimetazidine treatment and MCU inhibition decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, inhibited the NFκB pathway, and protected the cardiomyocytes from hypoxic injury, and vice versa. Thus, the present study unveils a unique mechanism in which trimetazidine is involved in ameliorating the ischemic failing heart via MCU down-regulation and the following mitochondrial calcium homeostasis restoration, ROS reduction, and cardiomyocyte protection through NFκB pathway inhibition. This mechanism provides a novel explanation for the treatment effects of trimetazidine on IHD.

Abstract
B-cell lymphoma 2-associated athanogene-3 (Bag3) is expressed in all animal species, with Bag3 levels being most prominent in the heart, the skeletal muscle, the central nervous system, and in many cancers. Preclinical studies of Bag3 biology have focused on animals that have developed compromised cardiac function; however, the present studies were performed to identify the pathways perturbed in the heart even before the occurrence of clinical signs of dilatation and failure of the heart. These studies show that hearts carrying variants that knockout one allele of BAG3 have significant alterations in multiple cellular pathways including apoptosis, autophagy, mitochondrial homeostasis, and the inflammasome.

MCU gain- and loss-of-function models define the duality of mitochondrial calcium uptake in heart failure. BIORXIV : THE PREPRINT SERVER FOR BIOLOGY 2023:2023.04.17.537222.

Abstract
Background Mitochondrial calcium (mCa2+) uptake through the mitochondrial calcium uniporter channel (mtCU) stimulates metabolism to meet acute increases in cardiac energy demand. However, excessive mCa2+ uptake during stress, as in ischemia-reperfusion, initiates permeability transition and cell death. Despite these often-reported acute physiological and pathological effects, a major unresolved controversy is whether mtCU-dependent mCa2+ uptake and long-term elevation of cardiomyocyte mCa2+ contributes to the heart's adaptation during sustained increases in workload. Objective We tested the hypothesis that mtCU-dependent mCa2+ uptake contributes to cardiac adaptation and ventricular remodeling during sustained catecholaminergic stress. Methods Mice with tamoxifen-inducible, cardiomyocyte-specific gain (αMHC-MCM × flox-stop-MCU; MCU-Tg) or loss (αMHC-MCM × Mcufl/fl; Mcu-cKO) of mtCU function received 2-wk catecholamine infusion. Results Cardiac contractility increased after 2d of isoproterenol in control, but not Mcu-cKO mice. Contractility declined and cardiac hypertrophy increased after 1-2-wk of isoproterenol in MCU-Tg mice. MCU-Tg cardiomyocytes displayed increased sensitivity to Ca2+- and isoproterenol-induced necrosis. However, loss of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) regulator cyclophilin D failed to attenuate contractile dysfunction and hypertrophic remodeling, and increased isoproterenol-induced cardiomyocyte death in MCU-Tg mice. Conclusions mtCU mCa2+ uptake is required for early contractile responses to adrenergic signaling, even those occurring over several days. Under sustained adrenergic load excessive MCU-dependent mCa2+ uptake drives cardiomyocyte dropout, perhaps independent of classical mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, and compromises contractile function. These findings suggest divergent consequences for acute versus sustained mCa2+ loading, and support distinct functional roles for the mPTP in settings of acute mCa2+ overload versus persistent mCa2+ stress.

Abstract
Despite considerable progress in treating cardiac disorders, the prevalence of heart failure (HF) keeps growing, making it a global medical and economic burden. HF is characterized by profound metabolic remodeling, which mostly occurs in the mitochondria. Although it is well established that the failing heart is energy-deficient, the role of mitochondria in the pathophysiology of HF extends beyond the energetic aspects. Changes in substrate oxidation, tricarboxylic acid cycle and the respiratory chain have emerged as key players in regulating myocardial energy homeostasis, Ca2+ handling, oxidative stress and inflammation. This work aims to highlight metabolic alterations in the mitochondria and their far-reaching effects on the pathophysiology of HF. Based on this knowledge, we will also discuss potential metabolic approaches to improve cardiac function.

Abstract
Aging is a natural process, characterized by progressive loss of physiological integrity, impaired function, and increased vulnerability to death. For centuries, people have been trying hard to understand the process of aging and find effective ways to delay it. However, limited breakthroughs have been made in anti-aging area. Since the hallmarks of aging were summarized in 2013, increasing studies focus on the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in aging and aging-related degenerative diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases, osteoarthritis, metabolic diseases, and cardiovascular diseases. Accumulating evidence indicates that restoring mitochondrial function and biogenesis exerts beneficial effects in extending lifespan and promoting healthy aging. In this paper, we provide an overview of mitochondrial changes during aging and summarize the advanced studies in mitochondrial therapies for the treatment of degenerative diseases. Current challenges and future perspectives are proposed to provide novel and promising directions for future research.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the leading cause of death worldwide, share in common mitochondrial dysfunction, in specific a dysregulation of Ca2+ uptake dynamics through the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter (MCU) complex. In particular, Ca2+ uptake regulates the mitochondrial ATP production, mitochondrial dynamics, oxidative stress, and cell death. Therefore, modulating the activity of the MCU complex to regulate Ca2+ uptake, has been suggested as a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of CVDs. Here, the role and implications of the MCU complex in CVDs are presented, followed by a review of the evidence for MCU complex modulation, genetically and pharmacologically. While most approaches have aimed within the MCU complex for the modulation of the Ca2+ pore channel, the MCU subunit, its intra- and extra- mitochondrial implications, including Ca2+ dynamics, oxidative stress, post-translational modifications, and its repercussions in the cardiac function, highlight that targeting the MCU complex has the translational potential for novel CVDs therapeutics.

Abstract
BAG3 is a 575 amino acid protein that is found throughout the animal kingdom and homologs have been identified in plants. The protein is expressed ubiquitously but is most prominent in cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle, the brain and in many cancers. We describe BAG3 as a quintessential multi-functional protein. It supports autophagy of both misfolded proteins and damaged organelles, inhibits apoptosis, maintains the homeostasis of the mitochondria, and facilitates excitation contraction coupling through the L-type calcium channel and the beta-adrenergic receptor. High levels of BAG3 are associated with insensitivity to chemotherapy in malignant cells whereas both loss of function and gain of function variants are associated with cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Adverse cardiac remodeling may lead to the development and progression of heart failure, which is lack of effective clinical treatment. Ginsenoside Rg1 (GRg1), a primary ingredient of Panax ginseng, protects against diverse cardiovascular disease, but its effects on cardiac remodeling remain unclear. Thus, we investigated the protective effect and mechanism of GRg1 on cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction. GRg1 significantly ameliorated cardiac remodeling in mice with left anterior descending coronary artery ligation, reflected by reduced left ventricular dilation and decreased cardiac fibrosis, accompanied by improved cardiac function. Mechanistically, GRg1 considerably increased mitophagosomes formation, ameliorated cardiac mitochondria damage, and enhanced SIRT1/PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy during cardiac remodeling. Consistently, GRg1 increased cell viability and attenuated apoptosis and fibrotic responses in H2 O2 -treated H9c2 cells by promoting the SIRT1/PINK1/Parkin axis. Furthermore, SIRT1-specific inhibitor (EX527) or the use of small interfering RNA against Parkin abolished the protective effect of GRg1 in vitro. These findings reveal a novel mechanism of GRg1 alleviating cardiac remodeling via enhancing SIRT1/PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy.

Abstract
Background: Calcium uptake research has a long history. However, the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) protein was first discovered in 2011. As investigations of mitochondrial calcium uniporter represent a new research hotspot, a comprehensive and objective perspective of the field is lacking. Hence, this bibliometric analysis aimed to provide the current study status and trends related to mitochondrial calcium uniporter research in the past decade. Methods: Articles were acquired from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We quantified and visualized information regarding annual publications, journals, cocited journals, countries/regions, institutions, authors, and cocited authors by using CiteSpace 5.8. R3 and VOSviewer. In addition, we analysed the citation and keyword bursts related to mitochondrial calcium uniporter studies. Results: From 2011 to 2022, 1,030 articles were published by 5,050 authors from 1,145 affiliations and 62 countries or regions. The country with the most published articles was the United States. The institution with the most published articles was the University of Padua. Rosario Rizzuto published the most articles and was also the most cocited author. Cell Calcium published the largest number of articles, whereas Journal of Biological Chemistry had the most cocitations. The top 5 keywords related to pathological processes were oxidative stress, cell death, permeability transition, apoptosis, and metabolism. MICU1, calcium, ryanodine receptor, ATP synthase and cyclophilin D were the top 5 keywords related to molecules. Conclusion: mitochondrial calcium uniporter research has grown stably over the last decade. Current studies focus on the structure of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter complex and its regulatory effect on mitochondrial calcium homeostasis. In addition, the potential role of mitochondrial calcium uniporter in different diseases has been explored. Current studies mostly involve investigations of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Our analysis provides guidance and new insights into further mitochondrial calcium uniporter research.

Abstract
Aim: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is an obstructive pulmonary vasculopathy that results in death from right ventricular failure (RVF). There is limited understanding of the molecular mechanisms of RVF in PAH. Methods: In a PAH-RVF model induced by injection of adult male rats with monocrotaline (MCT; 60 mg/kg), we performed mass spectrometry to identify proteins that change in the RV as a consequence of PAH induced RVF. Bioinformatic analysis was used to integrate our previously published RNA sequencing data from an independent cohort of PAH rats. Results: We identified 1,277 differentially regulated proteins in the RV of MCT rats compared to controls. Integration of MCT RV transcriptome and proteome data sets identified 410 targets that are concordantly regulated at the mRNA and protein levels. Functional analysis of these data revealed enriched functions, including mitochondrial metabolism, cellular respiration, and purine metabolism. We also prioritized 15 highly enriched protein:transcript pairs and confirmed their biological plausibility as contributors to RVF. We demonstrated an overlap of these differentially expressed pairs with data published by independent investigators using multiple PAH models, including the male SU5416-hypoxia model and several male rat strains. Conclusion: Multiomic integration provides a novel view of the molecular phenotype of RVF in PAH which includes dysregulation of pathways involving purine metabolism, mitochondrial function, inflammation, and fibrosis.

Abstract
Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) is defined as a disorder of the heart and kidney, in which acute or chronic injury of one organ may lead to acute or chronic dysfunction of the other. It is characterized by high morbidity and mortality, resulting in high economic costs and social burdens. However, there is currently no effective drug-based treatment. Emerging evidence implicates the involvement of mitophagy in the progression of CRS, including cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this review, we summarized the crucial roles and molecular mechanisms of mitophagy in the pathophysiology of CRS. It has been reported that mitophagy impairment contributes to a vicious loop between CKD and CVD, which ultimately accelerates the progression of CRS. Further, recent studies revealed that targeting mitophagy may serve as a promising therapeutic approach for CRS, including clinical drugs, stem cells and small molecule agents. Therefore, studies focusing on mitophagy may benefit for expanding innovative basic research, clinical trials, and therapeutic strategies for CRS.

Abstract
Heart failure is one of the major public health problems in the world. In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the relationship between heart failure and mitochondrial function. In the past 2 decades, a growing number of research papers in this field have been published. This study conducted a bibliometric analysis of the published literature on the relationship between MF and HF in the past 20 years by utilizing Microsoft Excel 2019, Biblio metric analysis platform, WoSCC database, VosViewer and Citespace. The results show that the papers have increased year by year and China and the United States are the leading countries in this field, as well as the countries with the most cooperation and exchanges. University of california system is the research institution with the greatest impacts on research results, and Yip H.K. is the author with more papers. The American Journal of Physiology-heart and Circulatory Physiology is probably the most popular magazine. At present, most of the published articles on mitochondria and HF are cited from internationally influential journals. The research focus includes oxidative stress, metabolic dysfunction, mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis imbalance, mitochondrial quality control and mitochondrial dysfunction mediated by inflammation in the pathogenesis of HF. Targeted regulating of mitochondria will be the keynote of future research on prevention and treatment of HF.

Mitophagy: A Potential Target for Pressure Overload-Induced Cardiac Remodelling. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:2849985. [PMID: 36204518 PMCID: PMC9532135 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2849985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2021] [Revised: 07/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
The pathological mechanisms underlying cardiac remodelling and cardiac dysfunction caused by pressure overload are poorly understood. Mitochondrial damage and functional dysfunction, including mitochondrial bioenergetic disorder, oxidative stress, and mtDNA damage, contribute to heart injury caused by pressure overload. Mitophagy, an important regulator of mitochondrial homeostasis and function, is triggered by mitochondrial damage and participates in the pathological process of cardiovascular diseases. Recent studies indicate that mitophagy plays a critical role in the pressure overload model, but evidence on the causal relationship between mitophagy abnormality and pressure overload-induced heart injury is inconclusive. This review summarises the mechanism, role, and regulation of mitophagy in the pressure overload model. It also pays special attention to active compounds that may regulate mitophagy in pressure overload, which provide clues for possible clinical applications.

Abstract
Foodborne mycotoxins are toxic metabolites that are produced by fungi. The widespread contamination of food and its by-products by mycotoxins is a global food safety problem that potentially threatens public health and other exposed animals. Most foodborne mycotoxins induce hepatotoxicity. However, only few studies have investigated the regulatory mechanisms of mitochondrial calcium transport monomers in mycotoxin-induced hepatotoxicity. Therefore, according to relevant studies and reports, this review suggests that intracellular Ca(2 +) homeostasis and mitochondrial Ca(2 +) uniporter are involved in the regulation of mycotoxin-induced hepatotoxicity. This review provides some ideas for future research involving mitochondrial Ca(2 +) uniporter in the molecular targets of mycotoxin-induced hepatotoxicity, as well as a reference for the research and development of related drugs and the treatment of related diseases.

Abstract
Mitochondrial calcium (mCa2+) uptake couples changes in cardiomyocyte energetic demand to mitochondrial ATP production. However, excessive mCa2+ uptake triggers permeability transition and necrosis. Despite these established roles during acute stress, the involvement of mCa2+ signaling in cardiac adaptations to chronic stress remains poorly defined. Changes in NCLX expression are reported in heart failure (HF) patients and models of cardiac hypertrophy. Therefore, we hypothesized that altered mCa2+ homeostasis contributes to the hypertrophic remodeling of the myocardium that occurs upon a sustained increase in cardiac workload. The impact of mCa2+ flux on cardiac function and remodeling was examined by subjecting mice with cardiomyocyte-specific overexpression (OE) of the mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCLX), the primary mediator of mCa2+ efflux, to several well-established models of hypertrophic and non-ischemic HF. Cardiomyocyte NCLX-OE preserved contractile function, prevented hypertrophy and fibrosis, and attenuated maladaptive gene programs in mice subjected to chronic pressure overload. Hypertrophy was attenuated in NCLX-OE mice, prior to any decline in cardiac contractility. NCLX-OE similarly attenuated deleterious cardiac remodeling in mice subjected to chronic neurohormonal stimulation. However, cardiomyocyte NCLX-OE unexpectedly reduced overall survival in mice subjected to severe neurohormonal stress with angiotensin II + phenylephrine. Adenoviral NCLX expression limited mCa2+ accumulation, oxidative metabolism, and de novo protein synthesis during hypertrophic stimulation of cardiomyocytes in vitro. Our findings provide genetic evidence for the contribution of mCa2+ to early pathological remodeling in non-ischemic heart disease, but also highlight a deleterious consequence of increasing mCa2+ efflux when the heart is subjected to extreme, sustained neurohormonal stress.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease(CVD)is one of the predominant causes of death and morbidity. Mitochondria play a key role in maintaining cardiac energy metabolism. However, mitochondrial dysfunction leads to excessive production of ROS, resulting in oxidative damage to cardiomyocytes and contributing to a variety of cardiovascular diseases. In such a case, the clearance of impaired mitochondria is necessary. Currently, most studies have indicated an essential role for mitophagy in maintaining cardiac homeostasis and regulating CVD-related metabolic transition. Recent studies have implicated that PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-mediated mitophagy has been implicated in maintaining cardiomyocyte homeostasis. Here, we discuss the physiological and pathological roles of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in the cardiovascular system, as well as potential therapeutic strategies based on PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy modulation, which are of great significance for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
The uptake of calcium into and extrusion of calcium from the mitochondrial matrix is a fundamental biological process that has critical effects on cellular metabolism, signaling, and survival. Disruption of mitochondrial calcium (mCa2+) cycling is implicated in numerous acquired diseases such as heart failure, stroke, neurodegeneration, diabetes, and cancer and is genetically linked to several inherited neuromuscular disorders. Understanding the mechanisms responsible for mCa2+ exchange therefore holds great promise for the treatment of these diseases. The past decade has seen the genetic identification of many of the key proteins that mediate mitochondrial calcium uptake and efflux. Here, we present an overview of the phenomenon of mCa2+ transport and a comprehensive examination of the molecular machinery that mediates calcium flux across the inner mitochondrial membrane: the mitochondrial uniporter complex (consisting of MCU, EMRE, MICU1, MICU2, MICU3, MCUB, and MCUR1), NCLX, LETM1, the mitochondrial ryanodine receptor, and the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. We then consider the physiological implications of mCa2+ flux and evaluate how alterations in mCa2+ homeostasis contribute to human disease. This review concludes by highlighting opportunities and challenges for therapeutic intervention in pathologies characterized by aberrant mCa2+ handling and by summarizing critical unanswered questions regarding the biology of mCa2+ flux.

Abstract
Intracellular calcium signaling is a universal language source shared by the most part of biological entities inside cells that, all together, give rise to physiological and functional anatomical units, the organ. Although preferentially recognized as signaling between cell life and death processes, in the heart it assumes additional relevance considered the importance of calcium cycling coupled to ATP consumption in excitation-contraction coupling. The concerted action of a plethora of exchangers, channels and pumps inward and outward calcium fluxes where needed, to convert energy and electric impulses in muscle contraction. All this without realizing it, thousands of times, every day. An improper function of those proteins (i.e., variation in expression, mutations onset, dysregulated channeling, differential protein-protein interactions) being part of this signaling network triggers a short circuit with severe acute and chronic pathological consequences reported as arrhythmias, cardiac remodeling, heart failure, reperfusion injury and cardiomyopathies. By acting with chemical, peptide-based and pharmacological modulators of these players, a correction of calcium homeostasis can be achieved accompanied by an amelioration of clinical symptoms. This review will focus on all those defects in calcium homeostasis which occur in the most common cardiac diseases, including myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, hypertrophy, heart failure and cardiomyopathies. This part will be introduced by the state of the art on the proteins involved in calcium homeostasis in cardiomyocytes and followed by the therapeutic treatments that to date, are able to target them and to revert the pathological phenotype.

Abstract
Prediabetic myocardium, induced by fructose-rich diet (FRD), is prone to increased sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)-Ca2+ leak and arrhythmias due to increased activity of the Ca2+/calmodulin protein kinase II (CaMKII). However, little is known about the role of SR-mitochondria microdomains, mitochondrial structure, and mitochondrial metabolisms. To address this knowledge gap we measured SR-mitochondrial proximity, intracellular Ca2+, and mitochondrial metabolism in wild type (WT) and AC3-I transgenic mice, with myocardial-targeted CaMKII inhibition, fed with control diet (CD) or with FRD. Confocal images showed significantly increased spontaneous Ca2+ release events in FRD vs. CD WT cardiomyocytes. [3H]-Ryanodine binding assay revealed higher [3H]Ry binding in FRD than CD WT hearts. O2 consumption at State 4 and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production rate were increased, while respiratory control rate (RCR) and Ca2+ retention capacity (CRC) were decreased in FRD vs. CD WT isolated mitochondria. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) images showed increased proximity at the SR-mitochondria microdomains, associated with increased tethering proteins, Mfn2, Grp75, and VDAC in FRD vs. CD WT. Mitochondria diameter was decrease and roundness and density were increased in FRD vs. CD WT specimens. The fission protein, Drp1 was significantly increased while the fusion protein, Opa1 was unchanged in FRD vs. CD WT hearts. These differences were prevented in AC3-I mice. We conclude that SR-mitochondria microdomains are subject to CaMKII-dependent remodeling, involving SR-Ca2+ leak and mitochondria fission, in prediabetic mice induced by FRD. We speculate that CaMKII hyperactivity induces SR-Ca2+ leak by RyR2 activation which in turn increases mitochondria Ca2+ content due to the enhanced SR-mitochondria tethering, decreasing CRC.

Objectives The alteration of bioenergetics by oocytes in response to the demands of various biological processes plays a critical role in maintaining normal cellular physiology. However, little is known about the association between energy sensing and energy production with energy‐dependent cellular processes like meiosis. Materials and methods We demonstrated that cell cycle‐dependent mitochondrial Ca2+ connects energy sensing to mitochondrial activity in meiosis progression within mouse oocytes. Further, we established a model in mouse oocytes using siRNA knockdowns that target mitochondrial calcium uniporters (MCUs) in order to inhibit mitochondrial Ca2+ concentrations. Results Decreased numbers of oocytes successfully progressed to the germinal vesicle stage and extruded the first polar body during in vitro culture after inhibition, while spindle checkpoint‐dependent meiosis was also delayed. Mitochondrial Ca2+ levels changed, and this was followed by altered mitochondrial masses and ATP levels within oocytes during the entirety of meiosis progression. Abnormal mitochondrial Ca2+ concentrations in oocytes then hindered meiotic progress and activated AMP‐activated protein kinase (AMPK) signalling that is associated with gene expression. Conclusions These data provide new insight into the protective role that MCU‐dependent mitochondrial Ca2+ signalling plays in meiotic progress, in addition to demonstrating a new mechanism of mitochondrial energy regulation by AMPK signalling that influences meiotic maturation.

Abstract
Ca2+ plays a pivotal role in mitochondrial energy production, contraction, and apoptosis. Mitochondrial Ca2+-targeted fluorescent probes have demonstrated that mitochondria Ca2+ transients are synchronized with Ca2+ fluxes occurring in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The presence of specialized proteins tethering SR to mitochondria ensures the local Ca2+ flux between these organelles. Furthermore, communication between SR and mitochondria impacts their functionality in a bidirectional manner. Mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake through the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniplex is essential for ATP production and controlled reactive oxygen species levels for proper cellular signaling. Conversely, mitochondrial ATP ensures the proper functioning of SR Ca2+-handling proteins, which ensures that mitochondria receive an adequate supply of Ca2+. Recent evidence suggests that altered SR Ca2+ proteins, such as ryanodine receptors and the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase pump, play an important role in maintaining proper cardiac membrane excitability, which may be initiated and potentiated when mitochondria are dysfunctional. This recognized mitochondrial role offers the opportunity to develop new therapeutic approaches aimed at preventing cardiac arrhythmias in cardiac disease.

Abstract
There is evidence demonstrating that heart failure (HF) occurs in 1-2% of the global population and is often accompanied by comorbidities which contribute to increasing the prevalence of the disease, the rate of hospitalization and the mortality. Although recent advances in both pharmacological and non-pharmacological approaches have led to a significant improvement in clinical outcomes in patients affected by HF, residual unmet needs remain, mostly related to the occurrence of poorly defined strategies in the early stages of myocardial dysfunction. Nutritional support in patients developing HF and nutraceutical supplementation have recently been shown to possibly contribute to protection of the failing myocardium, although their place in the treatment of HF requires further assessment, in order to find better therapeutic solutions. In this context, the Optimal Nutraceutical Supplementation in Heart Failure (ONUS-HF) working group aimed to assess the optimal nutraceutical approach to HF in the early phases of the disease, in order to counteract selected pathways that are imbalanced in the failing myocardium. In particular, we reviewed several of the most relevant pathophysiological and molecular changes occurring during the early stages of myocardial dysfunction. These include mitochondrial and sarcoplasmic reticulum stress, insufficient nitric oxide (NO) release, impaired cardiac stem cell mobilization and an imbalanced regulation of metalloproteinases. Moreover, we reviewed the potential of the nutraceutical supplementation of several natural products, such as coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a grape seed extract, Olea Europea L.-related antioxidants, a sodium-glucose cotransporter (SGLT2) inhibitor-rich apple extract and a bergamot polyphenolic fraction, in addition to their support in cardiomyocyte protection, in HF. Such an approach should contribute to optimising the use of nutraceuticals in HF, and the effect needs to be confirmed by means of more targeted clinical trials exploring the efficacy and safety of these compounds.

Abstract
Cathepsin S (CTSS), a lysosomal cysteine protease, is overexpressed in various cancers, including glioblastoma (GB). A high level of CTSS is associated with tumor progression and poor outcome in GB. However, the underlying mechanisms of its role in the biological characteristics of G5B remain to be elucidated. Here, we uncovered a potential role of CTSS in the lysosomes and mitochondria of GB cells (GBCs). Downregulation of CTSS in GBCs could increase the expression of autophagy-related proteins; however, there was no significant change in p62, suggesting autophagy blockade. Moreover, inhibition of CTSS increased the expression of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) and enhanced mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake ability, causing mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, the generation of copious reactive oxygen species (ROS) and eventual mitochondrial apoptosis. Additionally, elevated damage to mitochondria exacerbated the burden of autophagy. Finally, we found that silence of MCU could alleviate the inhibition of CTSS-induced autophagosome accumulation and mitochondrial stress. Collectively, these results demonstrate that CTSS plays an important role in the process of autophagic flux and mitochondrial functions in GBCs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) model is crucial for the study of cerebral stroke. Chrysophanol (Chry) can protect nerve damage of mice in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. This study aimed at investigating the neuroprotective effects of chrysophanol through mitochondrial autophagy in mice with ischemia-reperfusion injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS Adult mice were stochastically divided into five groups: sham, I/R (solvent), I/R+Chry (dose, 10.0ml/kg), I/R+Chry (dose, 1.0ml/kg), and I/R+Chry (dose, 0.1ml/kg). The cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model was made in I/R and I/R+Chry groups. The changes in hippocampal formation were observed by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. The expressions of LC3B-II and LC3B-I protein in hippocampus were demonstrated by western blot (WB). The fluorescence intensities of NIX, LC3B, and mitochondria were detected by immunohistochemistry fluorescent (IF). RESULTS Comparing with the I/R group, the I/R+Chry groups showed improvements in reducing the damage on the hippocampus, indicated by the reduced ratio of LC3B-II and LC3B-I protein, decreased fluorescence intensity of NIX and LC3B, and increased intensity of mitochondrial fluorescence. CONCLUSION Our study showed that chrysophanol may regulate mitochondrial autophagy through NIX protein and alleviate the damage of hippocampus through decreasing the level of mitochondrial autophagy.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) represents one of the leading causes of cardiovascular diseases with high rates of hospitalization, morbidity and mortality worldwide. Ample evidence has consolidated a crucial role for mitochondrial injury in the progression of HF. It is well established that mitochondrial Ca2+ participates in the regulation of a wide variety of biological processes, including oxidative phosphorylation, ATP synthesis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy. Nonetheless, mitochondrial Ca2+ overload stimulates mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening and mitochondrial swelling, resulting in mitochondrial injury, apoptosis, cardiac remodeling, and ultimately development of HF. Moreover, mitochondria possess a series of Ca2+ transport influx and efflux channels, to buffer Ca2+ in the cytoplasm. Interaction at mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) may also participate in the regulation of mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis and plays an essential role in the progression of HF. Here, we provide an overview of regulation of mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis in maintenance of cardiac function, in an effort to identify novel therapeutic strategies for the management of HF.

Abstract
Diseases of the heart, such as heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias, are a growing socio-economic burden. Calcium (Ca2+) dysregulation is key hallmark of the failing myocardium and has long been touted as a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of a variety of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In the heart, Ca2+ is essential for maintaining normal cardiac function through the generation of the cardiac action potential and its involvement in excitation contraction coupling. As such, the proteins which regulate Ca2+ cycling and signaling play a vital role in maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis. Changes to the expression levels and function of Ca2+-channels, pumps and associated intracellular handling proteins contribute to altered Ca2+ homeostasis in CVD. The remodeling of Ca2+-handling proteins therefore results in impaired Ca2+ cycling, Ca2+ leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and reduced Ca2+ clearance, all of which contributes to increased intracellular Ca2+. Currently, approved treatments for targeting Ca2+ handling dysfunction in CVD are focused on Ca2+ channel blockers. However, whilst Ca2+ channel blockers have been successful in the treatment of some arrhythmic disorders, they are not universally prescribed to heart failure patients owing to their ability to depress cardiac function. Despite the progress in CVD treatments, there remains a clear need for novel therapeutic approaches which are able to reverse pathophysiology associated with heart failure and arrhythmias. Given that heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias are closely associated with altered Ca2+ homeostasis, this review will address the molecular changes to proteins associated with both Ca2+-handling and -signaling; their potential as novel therapeutic targets will be discussed in the context of pre-clinical and, where available, clinical data.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with cardinal features of cognitive dysfunction in an individual. Recently, the blockade of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) exhibits neuroprotective activity in experimental animals. However, the therapeutic potential of MCU has not yet been established in the management of AD. Therefore, the present study explored the therapeutic potential of either Ruthenium red (RR), a MCU blocker, or Spermine, a MCU opener, on the extent of mitochondrial calcium accumulation, function, integrity and bioenergetics in hippocampus, pre-frontal cortex and amygdale of ICV-STZ challenged rats. Experimental AD was induced in male rats by intracerebroventricular injection of streptozotocin (ICV-STZ) on day-1 (D-1) of the experimental protocol at a sub-diabetogenic dose (3 mg/kg) twice at an interval of 48 h into both rat lateral ventricles. RR attenuated ICV-STZ-induced memory-related behavioral abnormalities in Morris water maze and Y-maze tests. RR also attenuated ICV-STZ-induced decrease in the level of acetylcholine and activity of choline acetyltransferase and, increase in the activity of acetylcholinestarase in memory-sensitive rat brain regions. Further, RR attenuated mitochondrial toxicity in terms of reducing mitochondrial calcium accumulation and improving the mitochondrial function, integrity and bioenergetics in memory-sensitive brain regions of ICV-STZ challenged rats. Furthermore, RR attenuated the percentage of apoptotic cells in ICV-STZ challenged rat brain regions. However, Spermine did not alter ICV-STZ-induced behavioral, biochemical and molecular observations in any of the brain regions. These observations indicate the fact that the MCU blockage could be a potential therapeutic option in the management of sporadic type of AD.

Abstract
Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. A large number of STEMI patients after the infarction gradually develop heart failure due to the infarcted myocardium. Timely reperfusion is essential to salvage ischemic myocardium from the infarction, but the restoration of coronary blood flow in the infarct-related artery itself induces myocardial injury and cardiomyocyte death, known as ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). The factors contributing to IRI in STEMI are complex, and microvascular obstruction, inflammation, release of reactive oxygen species, myocardial stunning, and activation of myocardial cell death are involved. Therefore, additional cardioprotection is required to prevent the heart from IRI. Although many mechanical conditioning procedures and pharmacological agents have been identified as effective cardioprotective approaches in animal studies, their translation into the clinical practice has been relatively disappointing due to a variety of reasons. With new emerging data on cardioprotection in STEMI over the past few years, it is mandatory to reevaluate the effectiveness of "old" cardioprotective interventions and highlight the novel therapeutic targets and new treatment strategies of cardioprotection.

Abstract
Since the identification of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) in 2011, several studies utilizing genetic models have attempted to decipher the role of mitochondrial calcium uptake in cardiac physiology. Confounding results in various mutant mouse models have led to an ongoing debate regarding the function of MCU in the heart. In this review, we evaluate and discuss the totality of evidence for mitochondrial calcium uptake in the cardiac stress response and highlight recent reports that implicate MCU in the control of homeostatic cardiac metabolism and function. This review concludes with a discussion of current gaps in knowledge and remaining experiments to define how MCU contributes to contractile function, cell death, metabolic regulation, and heart failure progression.

Abstract
Chronic remodeling postmyocardial infarction consists in various maladaptive changes including interstitial fibrosis, cardiomyocyte death and mitochondrial dysfunction that lead to heart failure (HF). Reactive aldehydes such as 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) are critical mediators of mitochondrial dysfunction but the sources of mitochondrial 4-HNE in cardiac diseases together with its mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. Here, we evaluated whether the mitochondrial enzyme monoamine oxidase-A (MAO-A), which generates H2O2 as a by-product of catecholamine metabolism, is a source of deleterious 4-HNE in HF. We found that MAO-A activation increased mitochondrial ROS and promoted local 4-HNE production inside the mitochondria through cardiolipin peroxidation in primary cardiomyocytes. Deleterious effects of MAO-A/4-HNE on cardiac dysfunction were prevented by activation of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), the main enzyme for 4-HNE metabolism. Mechanistically, MAO-A-derived 4-HNE bound to newly identified targets VDAC and MCU to promote ER-mitochondria contact sites and MCU higher-order complex formation. The resulting mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation participated in mitochondrial respiratory dysfunction and loss of membrane potential, as shown with the protective effects of the MCU inhibitor, RU360. Most interestingly, these findings were recapitulated in a chronic model of ischemic remodeling where pharmacological or genetic inhibition of MAO-A protected the mice from 4-HNE accumulation, MCU oligomer formation and Ca2+ overload, thus mitigating ventricular dysfunction. To our knowledge, these are the first evidences linking MAO-A activation to mitoCa2+ mishandling through local 4-HNE production, contributing to energetic failure and postischemic remodeling.

Abstract
Background: Thyroid hormone status in hypothyroidism (HT) downregulates key elements in Ca2+ handling within the heart, reducing contractility, impairing the basal energetic balance, and increasing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Mitochondrial Ca2+ transport is reduced in HT, and tolerance to reperfusion damage has been documented, but the precise mechanism is not well understood. Therefore, we aimed to determine the stoichiometry and activity of the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter or uniplex in an HT model and the relevance to the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTP) during ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods: An HT model was established in Wistar rats by treatment with 6-propylthiouracil for 28 days. Uniplex composition and activity were determined in cardiac mitochondria. Hearts were perfused ex vivo to induce I/R injury, and functional parameters related to contractility and tissue viability were evaluated. Results: The cardiac stoichiometry between two subunits of the uniplex (MICU1/MCU) increased by 25% in animals with HT. The intramitochondrial Ca2+ content was reduced by 40% and was less prone to the mPTP opening. After I/R injury, ischemic contracture and the onset of ventricular fibrillation were delayed in animals with HT, concomitant with a reduction in oxidative damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. Conclusions: Our results suggest that HT is associated with an increase in the cardiac MICU1/MCU ratio, thereby changing the stoichiometry between these subunits to increase the threshold to cytosolic Ca2+ and reduce mitochondrial Ca2+ overload. Our results also demonstrate that this HT model can be used to explore the role of mitochondrial Ca2+ transport in cardiac diseases due to its induced tolerance to cardiac damage.

Abstract
Calcium ions (Ca2+) influx to mitochondrial matrix is crucial for the life of a cell. Mitochondrial calcium uniporter (mtCU) is a protein complex which consists of the pore-forming subunit (MCU) and several regulatory subunits. MtCU is the main contributor to inward Ca2+ currents through the inner mitochondrial membrane. Extensive investigations of mtCU involvement into normal and pathological molecular pathways started from the moment of discovery of its molecular components. A crucial role of mtCU in the control of these pathways is now recognized in both health and disease. In particular, impairments of mtCU function have been demonstrated for cardiovascular and skeletal muscle-associated pathologies. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge on mtCU structure, regulation, and function in different types of muscle tissues in health and disease.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dynamic disorder is involved in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. To explore the effect of mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) on mitochondrial dynamic imbalance under I/R and its related signal pathways, a mouse myocardial I/R model and hypoxia/reoxygenation model of mouse cardiomyocytes were established. The expression of MCU during I/R increased and related to myocardial injury, enhancement of mitochondrial fission, inhibition of mitochondrial fusion and mitophagy. Suppressing MCU functions by Ru360 during I/R could reduce myocardial infarction area and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, alleviate mitochondrial fission and restore mitochondrial fusion and mitophagy. However, spermine administration, which could enhance MCU function, deteriorated the above-mentioned myocardial cell injury and mitochondrial dynamic imbalanced. In addition, up-regulation of MCU promoted the expression and activation of calpain-1/2 and down-regulated the expression of Optic atrophy type 1 (OPA1). Meantime, in transgenic mice (overexpression calpastatin, the endogenous inhibitor of calpain) I/R model and OPA1 knock-down cultured cell. In I/R models of transgenic mice over-expressing calpastatin, which is the endogenous inhibitor of calpain, and in H/R models with siOPA1 transfection, inhibition of calpains could enhance mitochondrial fusion and mitophagy, and inhibit excessive mitochondrion fission and apoptosis through OPA1. Therefore, we conclude that during I/R, MCU up-regulation induces calpain activation, which down-regulates OPA1, consequently leading to mitochondrial dynamic imbalance.

Abstract
Significance: Energy stress in the myocardium occurs in a variety of acute and chronic pathophysiological contexts, including ischemia, nutrient deprivation, and diabetic disease settings of substrate disturbance. Although the heart is highly adaptive and flexible in relation to fuel utilization and routes of adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) generation, maladaptations in energy stress situations confer functional deficit. An understanding of the mechanisms that link energy stress to impaired myocardial performance is crucial. Recent Advances: Emerging evidence suggests that, in parallel with regulated enzymatic pathways that control intracellular substrate supply, other processes of "bulk" autophagic macromolecular breakdown may be important in energy stress conditions. Recent findings indicate that cargo-specific autophagic activity may be important in different stress states. In particular, induction of glycophagy, a glycogen-specific autophagy, has been described in acute and chronic energy stress situations. The impact of elevated cardiomyocyte glucose flux relating to glycophagy dysregulation on contractile function is unknown. Critical Issues: Ischemia- and diabetes-related cardiac adverse events comprise the majority of cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. Current therapies involve management of systemic comorbidities. Cardiac-specific adjunct treatments targeted to manage myocardial energy stress responses are lacking. Future Directions: New knowledge is required to understand the mechanisms involved in selective recruitment of autophagic responses in the cardiomyocyte energy stress response. In particular, exploration of the links between cell substrate flux, calcium ion (Ca2+) flux, and phagosomal cargo flux is required. Strategies to target specific fuel "bulk" management defects in cardiac energy stress states may be of therapeutic value.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunctions are major contributors to heart disease onset and progression. Under ischemic injuries or cardiac overload, mitochondrial-derived oxidative stress, Ca2+ dis-homeostasis, and inflammation initiate cross-talking vicious cycles leading to defects of mitochondrial DNA, lipids, and proteins, concurrently resulting in fatal energy crisis and cell loss. Blunting such noxious stimuli and preserving mitochondrial homeostasis are essential to cell survival. In this context, mitochondrial quality control (MQC) represents an expanding research topic and therapeutic target in the field of cardiac physiology. MQC is a multi-tier surveillance system operating at the protein, organelle, and cell level to repair or eliminate damaged mitochondrial components and replace them by biogenesis. Novel evidence highlights the critical role of thyroid hormones (TH) in regulating multiple aspects of MQC, resulting in increased organelle turnover, improved mitochondrial bioenergetics, and the retention of cell function. In the present review, these emerging protective effects are discussed in the context of cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) and heart failure, focusing on MQC as a strategy to blunt the propagation of connected dangerous signaling cascades and limit adverse remodeling. A better understanding of such TH-dependent signaling could provide insights into the development of mitochondria-targeted treatments in patients with cardiac disease.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte function and viability are highly modulated by mammalian Ste20-like kinase 1 (Mst1)-Hippo pathway and mitochondria. Mitophagy, a kind of mitochondrial autophagy, is a protective program to attenuate mitochondrial damage. However, the relationship between Mst1 and mitophagy in septic cardiomyopathy has not been explored. In the present study, Mst1 knockout mice were used in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic cardiomyopathy model. Mitophagy activity was measured via immunofluorescence, Western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Pathway blocker and small interfering RNA were used to perform the loss-of-function assay. The results demonstrated that Mst1 was rapidly increased in response to LPS stress. Knockout of Mst1 attenuated LPS-mediated inflammation damage, reduced cardiomyocyte death, and improved cardiac function. At the molecular levels, LPS treatment activated mitochondrial damage, such as mitochondrial respiratory dysfunction, mitochondrial potential reduction, mitochondrial ATP depletion, and caspase family activation. Interestingly, in response to mitochondrial damage, Mst1 deletion activated mitophagy which attenuated LPS-mediated mitochondrial damage. However, inhibition of mitophagy via inhibiting parkin mitophagy abolished the protective influences of Mst1 deletion on mitochondrial homeostasis and cardiomyocyte viability. Overall, our results demonstrated that septic cardiomyopathy is linked to Mst1 upregulation which is followed by a drop in the protective mitophagy.

Abstract
The mechanism of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) remains unclear. In this study, mitochondria calcium uniporter (MCU), dynamin‐related protein‐1 (DNM1L/Drp1) and their relationship with autophagy in heart failure (HF) and CRT are investigated. Thirteen male beagle's dogs were divided into three groups (sham, HF, CRT). Animals received left bundle branch (LBB) ablation followed by either 8‐week rapid atrial pacing or 4‐week rapid atrial pacing and 4‐week biventricular pacing. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were detected by microarray analysis. General morphological changes, mitochondrial ultrastructure, autophagosomes and mitophagosomes were investigated. The cardiomyocyte stretching was adopted to imitate the mechanical effect of CRT. Cells were divided into three groups (control, angiotensin‐II and angiotensin‐II + stretching). MCU, DNM1L/Drp1 and autophagy markers were detected by western blots or immunofluorescence. In the present study, CRT could correct cardiac dysfunction, decrease cardiomyocyte's size, alleviate cardiac fibrosis, promote the formation of autophagosome and mitigate mitochondrial injury. CRT significantly influenced gene expression profile, especially down‐regulating MCU and up‐regulating DNM1L/Drp1. Cell stretching reversed the angiotensin‐II induced changes of MCU and DNM1L/Drp1 and partly restored autophagy. CRT's mechanical effects down‐regulated MCU, up‐regulated DNM1L/Drp1 and subsequently enhanced autophagy. Besides, the mechanical stretching prevented the angiotensin‐II‐induced cellular enlargement.

Abstract
Recent discoveries of the molecular identity of mitochondrial Ca2+ influx/efflux mechanisms have placed mitochondrial Ca2+ transport at center stage in views of cellular regulation in various cell-types/tissues. Indeed, mitochondria in cardiac muscles also possess the molecular components for efficient uptake and extraction of Ca2+. Over the last several years, multiple groups have taken advantage of newly available molecular information about these proteins and applied genetic tools to delineate the precise mechanisms for mitochondrial Ca2+ handling in cardiomyocytes and its contribution to excitation-contraction/metabolism coupling in the heart. Though mitochondrial Ca2+ has been proposed as one of the most crucial secondary messengers in controlling a cardiomyocyte's life and death, the detailed mechanisms of how mitochondrial Ca2+ regulates physiological mitochondrial and cellular functions in cardiac muscles, and how disorders of this mechanism lead to cardiac diseases remain unclear. In this review, we summarize the current controversies and discrepancies regarding cardiac mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling that remain in the field to provide a platform for future discussions and experiments to help close this gap.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion cerebral injury can cause serious damage to nerve cells. The injured organelles are cleared by autophagy eventually, which is critical for cell survival. Dexmedetomidine is neuroprotective in various ischemia/reperfusion models. Mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) is the most important channel of mitochondrial Ca2+ influx into mitochondria, where Ca2+ has a potential effect on mitochondrial autophagy. However, the role of MCU in the changes of mitophagy and autophagy caused by dexmedetomidine is unknown. In this study, we constructed an in vitro I/R model by subjecting the oxygen and glucose deprivation/reperfusion model to SH-SY5Y cells to mimic the cerebral I/R injury. We found that postconditioning with dexmedetomidine and 3-methyladenine (3MA, an autophagy inhibitor) increased the cell survival meanwhile reduced the production of autophagic vesicles and the expression of LC3 and Beclin 1. This process also increased the expression of BCL-2, P62, and TOM20. After applied with spermine (MCU-specific agonist), the expression of autophagy proteins by dexmedetomidine was reversed, and the same changes were also observed in immunofluorescence. The results of our study suggested that dexmedetomidine can inhibit MCU and reduce excessive mitophagy and autophagy for conferring protection against I/R injury.
