Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is the leading cause of low back pain, which is one of the major factors leading to disability and severe economic burden. Necroptosis is an important form of programmed cell death (PCD), a highly regulated caspase-independent type of cell death that is regulated by receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL)-mediated, play a key role in the pathophysiology of various inflammatory, infectious and degenerative diseases. Recent studies have shown that necroptosis plays an important role in the occurrence and development of IDD. In this review, we provide an overview of the initiation and execution of necroptosis and explore in depth its potential mechanisms of action in IDD. The analysis focuses on the connection between NP cell necroptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction-oxidative stress pathway, inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress, apoptosis, and autophagy. Finally, we evaluated the possibility of treating IDD by inhibiting necroptosis, and believed that targeting necroptosis may be a new strategy to alleviate the symptoms of IDD.

Acta Pharmacol Sin 2024:10.1038/s41401-024-01359-9.

Abstract
Mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are vital organelles that influence various cellular physiological and pathological processes. Recent evidence shows that about 5%-20% of the mitochondrial outer membrane is capable of forming a highly dynamic physical connection with the ER, maintained at a distance of 10-30 nm. These interconnections, known as MAMs, represent a relatively conserved structure in eukaryotic cells, acting as a critical platform for material exchange between mitochondria and the ER to maintain various aspects of cellular homeostasis. Particularly, ER-mediated Ca2+ release and recycling are intricately associated with the structure and functionality of MAMs. Thus, MAMs are integral in intracellular Ca2+ transport and the maintenance of Ca2+ homeostasis, playing an essential role in various cellular activities including metabolic regulation, signal transduction, autophagy, and apoptosis. The disruption of MAMs observed in certain pathologies such as cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases as well as cancers leads to a disturbance in Ca2+ homeostasis. This imbalance potentially aggravates pathological alterations and disease progression. Consequently, a thorough understanding of the link between MAM-mediated Ca2+ transport and these diseases could unveil new perspectives and therapeutic strategies. This review focuses on the changes in MAMs function during disease progression and their implications in relation to MAM-associated Ca2+ transport.

Exp Eye Res 2024; 245:109965. [PMID: 38851477 DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2024.109965] [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: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
Mitochondria-associated ER membranes (MAMs) are contact sites that enable bidirectional communication between the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) and mitochondria, including the transfer of Ca2+ signals. MAMs are essential for mitochondrial function and cellular energy metabolism. However, unrestrained Ca2+ transfer to the mitochondria can lead to mitochondria-dependent apoptosis. IP3R2 (Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor 2) is an important intracellular Ca2+ channel. This study investigated the contribution of IP3R2-MAMs to hypoxia-induced apoptosis in photoreceptor cells. A photoreceptor hypoxia model was established by subretinal injection of hyaluronic acid (1%) in C57BL/6 mice and 1% O2 treatment in 661W cells. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ER-mitochondria colocalization, and the MAM reporter were utilized to evaluate MAM alterations. Cell apoptosis and mitochondrial homeostasis were evaluated using immunofluorescence (IF), flow cytometry, western blotting (WB), and ATP assays. SiRNA transfection was employed to silence IP3R2 in 661W cells. Upon hypoxia induction, MAMs were significantly increased in photoreceptors both in vivo and in vitro. This was accompanied by the activation of mitochondrial apoptosis and disruption of mitochondrial homeostasis. Elevated MAM-enriched IP3R2 protein levels induced by hypoxic injury led to mitochondrial calcium overload and subsequent photoreceptor apoptosis. Notably, IP3R2 knockdown not only improved mitochondrial morphology but also restored mitochondrial function in photoreceptors by limiting MAM formation and thereby attenuating mitochondrial calcium overload under hypoxia. Our results suggest that IP3R2-MAM-mediated mitochondrial calcium overload plays a critical role in mitochondrial dyshomeostasis, ultimately contributing to photoreceptor cell death. Targeting MAM constitutive proteins might provide an option for a therapeutic approach to mitigate photoreceptor death in retinal detachment.

Abstract
Aging is associated with an increased risk of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). With an increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases such as coronary arteriosclerosis in older people, there has been increasing interest in understanding the mechanisms of myocardial IRI to develop therapeutics that can attenuate its damaging effects. Previous studies identified that abnormal mitochondria, involved in cellar senescence and oxidative stress, are the master subcellular organelle that induces IRI. In addition, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is also associated with IRI. Cellular adaptation to ER stress is achieved by the activation of ER molecular chaperones and folding enzymes, which provide an important link between ER stress and oxidative stress gene programs. In this review, we outline how these ER stress-related molecules affect myocardial IRI via the crosstalk of ER stress and mitochondrial homeostasis and discuss how these may offer promising novel therapeutic targets and strategies against age-related cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Despite clinical and scientific advancements, heart failure is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Both mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation contribute to the development and progression of heart failure. Although inflammation is crucial to reparative healing following acute cardiomyocyte injury, chronic inflammation damages the heart, impairs function, and decreases cardiac output. Mitochondria, which comprise one third of cardiomyocyte volume, may prove a potential therapeutic target for heart failure. Known primarily for energy production, mitochondria are also involved in other processes including calcium homeostasis and the regulation of cellular apoptosis. Mitochondrial function is closely related to morphology, which alters through mitochondrial dynamics, thus ensuring that the energy needs of the cell are met. However, in heart failure, changes in substrate use lead to mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired myocyte function. This review discusses mitochondrial and cristae dynamics, including the role of the mitochondria contact site and cristae organizing system complex in mitochondrial ultrastructure changes. Additionally, this review covers the role of mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum contact sites, mitochondrial communication via nanotunnels, and altered metabolite production during heart failure. We highlight these often-neglected factors and promising clinical mitochondrial targets for heart failure.

Abstract
Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass results in global myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, leading to significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. Although cardioplegia is the cornerstone of intraoperative cardioprotection, a number of additional strategies have been identified. The concept of preconditioning and postconditioning, despite its limited direct clinical application, provided an essential contribution to the understanding of myocardial injury and organ protection. Therefore, physicians can use different tools to limit perioperative myocardial injury. These include the choice of anesthetic agents, remote ischemic preconditioning, tight glycemic control, optimization of respiratory parameters during the aortic unclamping phase to limit reperfusion injury, appropriate choice of monitoring to optimize hemodynamic parameters and limit perioperative use of catecholamines, and early reintroduction of cardioprotective agents in the postoperative period. Appropriate management before, during, and after cardiopulmonary bypass will help to decrease myocardial damage. This review aimed to highlight the current advancements in cardioprotection and their potential applications during cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) act as physical membrane contact sites facilitating material exchange and signal transmission between mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER), thereby regulating processes such as Ca2+/lipid transport, mitochondrial dynamics, autophagy, ER stress, inflammation, and apoptosis, among other pathological mechanisms. Emerging evidence underscores the pivotal role of MAMs in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), particularly in aging-related pathologies. Aging significantly influences the structure and function of the heart and the arterial system, possibly due to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) resulting from reduced antioxidant capacity and the age-related decline in organelle function, including mitochondria. Therefore, this paper begins by describing the composition, structure, and function of MAMs, followed by an exploration of the degenerative changes in MAMs and the cardiovascular system during aging. Subsequently, it discusses the regulatory pathways and approaches targeting MAMs in aging-related CVDs, to provide novel treatment strategies for managing CVDs in aging populations.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a serious condition that occurs when part of the heart is subjected to ischemia episodes, following partial or complete occlusion of the epicardial coronary arteries. The resulting damage to heart muscle cells have a significant impact on patient's health and quality of life. About that, recent research focused on the role of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and mitochondria in the physiopathology of AMI. Moreover, SR and mitochondria get in touch each other through multiple membrane contact sites giving rise to the subcellular region called mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs). MAMs are essential for, but not limited to, bioenergetics and cell fate. Disruption of the architecture of these regions occurs during AMI although it is still unclear the cause-consequence connection and a complete overview of the pathological changes; for sure this concurs to further damage to heart muscle. The calcium ion (Ca2+) plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of AMI and its dynamic signaling between the SR and mitochondria holds significant importance. In this review, we tried to summarize and update the knowledge about the roles of these organelles in AMI from a Ca2+ signaling point of view. Accordingly, we also reported some possible cardioprotective targets which are directly or indirectly related at limiting the dysfunctions caused by the deregulation of the Ca2+ signaling.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is important to cells because of its essential functions, including synthesizing three major nutrients and ion transport. When cellular homeostasis is disrupted, ER quality control (ERQC) system is activated effectively to remove misfolded and unfolded proteins through ER-phagy, ER-related degradation (ERAD), and molecular chaperones. When unfolded protein response (UPR) and ER stress are activated, the cell may be suffering a huge blow, and the most probable consequence is apoptosis. The membrane contact points between the ER and sub-organelles contribute to communication between the organelles. The decrease in oxygen concentration affects the morphology and structure of the ER, thereby affecting its function and further disrupting the stable state of cells, leading to the occurrence of disease. In this study, we describe the functions of ER-, ERQC-, and ER-related membrane contact points and their changes under hypoxia, which will help us further understand ER and treat ER-related diseases.

Abstract
Organelle damage is a significant contributor to myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. This damage often leads to disruption of endoplasmic reticulum protein regulatory programs and dysfunction of mitochondrial energy metabolism. Mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum are seamlessly connected through the mitochondrial-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM), which serves as a crucial site for the exchange of organelles and metabolites. However, there is a lack of reports regarding the communication of information and metabolites between mitochondria and related organelles, which is a crucial factor in triggering myocardial I/R damage. To address this research gap, this review described the role of crosstalk between mitochondria and the correlative organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomal and nuclei involved in reperfusion injury of the heart. In summary, this review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the crosstalk between organelles in myocardial I/R injury, with the ultimate goal of facilitating the development of targeted therapies based on this knowledge.

Abstract
After myocardial infarction (MI), there is a notable disruption in cellular calcium ion homeostasis and mitochondrial function, which is believed to be intricately linked to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. This research endeavors to elucidate the involvement of glucose regulated protein 75 (GRP75) in post-MI calcium ion homeostasis and mitochondrial function. In MI rats, symptoms of myocardial injury were accompanied by an increase in the activation of ER stress. Moreover, in oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-induced cardiomyocytes, it was confirmed that inhibiting ER stress exacerbated intracellular Ca2+ disruption and cell apoptosis. Concurrently, the co-localization of GRP75 with IP3R and VDAC1 increased under ER stress in cardiomyocytes. In OGD-induced cardiomyocytes, knockdown of GRP75 not only reduced the Ca2+ levels in both the ER and mitochondria and improved the ultrastructure of cardiomyocytes, but it also increased the number of contact points between the ER and mitochondria, reducing mitochondria associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) formation, and decreased cell apoptosis. Significantly, knockdown of GRP75 did not affect the protein expression of PERK and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α). Transcriptome analysis of cardiomyocytes revealed that knockdown of GRP75 mainly influenced the molecular functions of sialyltransferase and IP3R, as well as the biosynthesis of glycosphingolipids and lactate metabolism. The complex interaction between the ER and mitochondria, driven by the GRP75 and its associated IP3R1-GRP75-VDAC1 complex, is crucial for calcium homeostasis and cardiomyocyte's adaptive response to ER stress. Modulating GRP75 could offer a strategy to regulate calcium dynamics, diminish glycolysis, and thereby mitigate cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

Sung E, Park W, Park J, Bazer FW, Song G, Lim W. Meptyldinocap induces implantation failure by forcing cell cycle arrest, mitochondrial dysfunction, and endoplasmic reticulum stress in porcine trophectoderm and endometrial luminal epithelial cells. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 924:171524.

Abstract
Meptyldinocap is a dinitrophenol fungicide used to control powdery mildew. Although other dinitrophenol pesticides have been found to exhibit reproductive toxicity, studies of meptyldinocaps are scarce. This study investigated the adverse effects of meptyldinocap on porcine trophectoderm (pTr) and porcine endometrial luminal epithelial (pLE) cells, which play crucial roles in implantation. We confirmed that meptyldinocap decreased cell viability, induced apoptosis, and inhibited proliferation by decreasing proliferation-related gene expression and inducing changes in the cell cycle. Furthermore, meptyldinocap treatment caused mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and disruption of calcium homeostasis. Moreover, it induces alterations in mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling cascades and reduces the migration ability, leading to implantation failure. Our findings suggest that meptyldinocap reduces the cellular functions of pTr and pLE cells, which are important for the implantation process, and interferes with interactions between the two cell lines, potentially leading to implantation failure. We also propose a mechanism by which the understudied fungicide meptyldinocap exerts its cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality, and exercise-training (TRN) is known to reduce risk factors and protect the heart from ischemia and reperfusion injury. Though the cardioprotective effects of exercise are well-documented, underlying mechanisms are not well understood. This review highlights recent findings and focuses on cardiac factors with emphasis on K+ channel control of the action potential duration (APD), β-adrenergic and adenosine regulation of cardiomyocyte function, and mitochondrial Ca2+ regulation. TRN-induced prolongation and shortening of the APD at low and high activation rates, respectively, is discussed in the context of a reduced response of the sarcolemma delayed rectifier potassium channel (IK) and increased content and activation of the sarcolemma KATP channel. A proposed mechanism underlying the latter is presented, including the phosphatidylinositol-3kinase/protein kinase B pathway. TRN induced increases in cardiomyocyte contractility and the response to adrenergic agonists are discussed. The TRN-induced protection from reperfusion injury is highlighted by the increased content and activation of the sarcolemma KATP channel and the increased phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3β, which aid in preventing mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and mitochondria-triggered apoptosis. Finally, a brief section is presented on the increased incidences of atrial fibrillation associated with age and in life-long exercisers.

Hyperglycemia triggers RyR2-dependent alterations of mitochondrial calcium homeostasis in response to cardiac ischemia-reperfusion: Key role of DRP1 activation. Redox Biol 2024; 70:103044. [PMID: 38266577 PMCID: PMC10835010 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2024.103044] [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: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/14/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Hyperglycemia increases the heart sensitivity to ischemia-reperfusion (IR), but the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. Mitochondrial dynamics (the processes that govern mitochondrial morphology and their interactions with other organelles, such as the reticulum), has emerged as a key factor in the heart vulnerability to IR. However, it is unknown whether mitochondrial dynamics contributes to hyperglycemia deleterious effect during IR. We hypothesized that (i) the higher heart vulnerability to IR in hyperglycemic conditions could be explained by hyperglycemia effect on the complex interplay between mitochondrial dynamics, Ca2+ homeostasis, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production; and (ii) the activation of DRP1, a key regulator of mitochondrial dynamics, could play a central role. Using transmission electron microscopy and proteomic analysis, we showed that the interactions between sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria and mitochondrial fission were increased during IR in isolated rat hearts perfused with a hyperglycemic buffer compared with hearts perfused with a normoglycemic buffer. In isolated mitochondria and cardiomyocytes, hyperglycemia increased mitochondrial ROS production and Ca2+ uptake. This was associated with higher RyR2 instability. These results could contribute to explain the early mPTP activation in mitochondria from isolated hearts perfused with a hyperglycemic buffer and in hearts from streptozotocin-treated rats (to increase the blood glucose). DRP1 inhibition by Mdivi-1 during the hyperglycemic phase and before IR induction, normalized Ca2+ homeostasis, ROS production, mPTP activation, and reduced the heart sensitivity to IR in streptozotocin-treated rats. In conclusion, hyperglycemia-dependent DRP1 activation results in higher reticulum-mitochondria calcium exchange that contribute to the higher heart vulnerability to IR.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), an important complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), is one of the most serious chronic heart diseases and has become a major cause of heart failure worldwide. At present, the pathogenesis of DCM is unclear, and there is still a lack of effective therapeutics. Previous studies have shown that the homeostasis of mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) play a core role in maintaining cardiovascular function, and structural and functional abnormalities in these organelles seriously impact the occurrence and development of various cardiovascular diseases, including DCM. The interplay between mitochondria and the ER is mediated by the mitochondria-associated ER membrane (MAM), which participates in regulating energy metabolism, calcium homeostasis, mitochondrial dynamics, autophagy, ER stress, inflammation, and other cellular processes. Recent studies have proven that MAM is closely related to the initiation and progression of DCM. In this study, we aim to summarize the recent research progress on MAM, elaborate on the key role of MAM in DCM, and discuss the potential of MAM as an important therapeutic target for DCM, thereby providing a theoretical reference for basic and clinical studies of DCM treatment.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are highly efficient small-molecule anticancer drugs. Despite the specificity and efficacy of TKIs, they can produce off-target effects, leading to severe liver toxicity, and even some of them are labeled as black box hepatotoxicity. Thus, we focused on representative TKIs associated with severe hepatic adverse events, namely lapatinib, pazopanib, regorafenib, and sunitinib as objections of study, then integrated drug side-effect data from United State Food and Drug Administration (U.S. FDA) and network pharmacology to elucidate mechanism underlying TKI-induced liver injury. Based on network pharmacology, we constructed a specific comorbidity module of high risk of serious adverse effects and created drug-disease networks. Enrichment analysis of the networks revealed the depletion of all-trans-retinoic acid and the involvement of down-regulation of the HSP70 family-mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress as key factors in TKI-induced liver injury. These results were further verified by transcription data. Based on the target prediction results of drugs and reactive metabolites, we also shed light on the association between toxic metabolites and severe hepatic adverse reactions, and thinking HSPA8, HSPA1A, CYP1A1, CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 were potential therapeutic or preventive targets against TKI-induced liver injury. In conclusion, our research provides comprehensive insights into the mechanism underlying severe liver injury caused by TKIs, offering a better understanding of how to enhance patient safety and treatment efficacy.

Abstract
Mitochondria-associated membrane (MAM) serve as crucial contact sites between mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Recent research has highlighted the significance of MAM, which serve as a platform for various protein molecules, in processes such as calcium signaling, ATP production, mitochondrial structure and function, and autophagy. Cardiac diseases caused by any reason can lead to changes in myocardial structure and function, significantly impacting human health. Notably, MAM exhibits various regulatory effects to maintain cellular balance in several cardiac diseases conditions, such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, and cardiotoxicity. MAM proteins independently or interact with their counterparts, forming essential tethers between the ER and mitochondria in cardiomyocytes. This review provides an overview of key MAM regulators, detailing their structure and functions. Additionally, it explores the connection between MAM and various cardiac injuries, suggesting that precise genetic, pharmacological, and physical regulation of MAM may be a promising strategy for preventing and treating heart failure.

Canonical transient receptor potential channel 1 aggravates myocardial ischemia-and-reperfusion injury by upregulating reactive oxygen species. J Pharm Anal 2023; 13:1309-1325. [PMID: 38174113 PMCID: PMC10759261 DOI: 10.1016/j.jpha.2023.08.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
The canonical transient receptor potential channel (TRPC) proteins form Ca2+-permeable cation channels that are involved in various heart diseases. However, the roles of specific TRPC proteins in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remain poorly understood. We observed that TRPC1 and TRPC6 were highly expressed in the area at risk (AAR) in a coronary artery ligation induced I/R model. Trpc1-/- mice exhibited improved cardiac function, lower serum Troponin T and serum creatine kinase level, smaller infarct volume, less fibrotic scars, and fewer apoptotic cells after myocardial-I/R than wild-type or Trpc6-/- mice. Cardiomyocyte-specific knockdown of Trpc1 using adeno-associated virus 9 mitigated myocardial I/R injury. Furthermore, Trpc1 deficiency protected adult mouse ventricular myocytes (AMVMs) and HL-1 cells from death during hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury. RNA-sequencing-based transcriptome analysis revealed differential expression of genes related to reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in Trpc1-/- cardiomyocytes. Among these genes, oxoglutarate dehydrogenase-like (Ogdhl) was markedly downregulated. Moreover, Trpc1 deficiency impaired the calcineurin (CaN)/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway in AMVMs. Suppression of this pathway inhibited Ogdhl upregulation and ROS generation in HL-1 cells under H/R conditions. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays confirmed NF-κB binding to the Ogdhl promoter. The cardioprotective effect of Trpc1 deficiency was canceled out by overexpression of NF-κB and Ogdhl in cardiomyocytes. In conclusion, our findings reveal that TRPC1 is upregulated in the AAR following myocardial I/R, leading to increased Ca2+ influx into associated cardiomyocytes. Subsequently, this upregulates Ogdhl expression through the CaN/NF-κB signaling pathway, ultimately exacerbating ROS production and aggravating myocardial I/R injury.

DIAPH1-MFN2 interaction regulates mitochondria-SR/ER contact and modulates ischemic/hypoxic stress. Nat Commun 2023; 14:6900. [PMID: 37903764 PMCID: PMC10616211 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-42521-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Inter-organelle contact and communication between mitochondria and sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER) maintain cellular homeostasis and are profoundly disturbed during tissue ischemia. We tested the hypothesis that the formin Diaphanous-1 (DIAPH1), which regulates actin dynamics, signal transduction and metabolic functions, contributes to these processes. We demonstrate that DIAPH1 interacts directly with Mitofusin-2 (MFN2) to shorten mitochondria-SR/ER distance, thereby enhancing mitochondria-ER contact in cells including cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells and macrophages. Solution structure studies affirm the interaction between the Diaphanous Inhibitory Domain and the cytosolic GTPase domain of MFN2. In male rodent and human cardiomyocytes, DIAPH1-MFN2 interaction regulates mitochondrial turnover, mitophagy, and oxidative stress. Introduction of synthetic linker construct, which shorten the mitochondria-SR/ER distance, mitigated the molecular and functional benefits of DIAPH1 silencing in ischemia. This work establishes fundamental roles for DIAPH1-MFN2 interaction in the regulation of mitochondria-SR/ER contact networks. We propose that targeting pathways that regulate DIAPH1-MFN2 interactions may facilitate recovery from tissue ischemia.

Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Cell Biol Lipids 2023; 1868:159366. [PMID: 37473835 PMCID: PMC11154090 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbalip.2023.159366] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Revised: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023]
Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a key role in the regulation of protein folding, lipid synthesis, calcium homeostasis, and serves as a primary site of sphingolipid biosynthesis. ER stress (ER dysfunction) participates in the development of mitochondrial dysfunction during aging. Mitochondria are in close contact with the ER through shared mitochondria associated membranes (MAM). Alteration of sphingolipids contributes to mitochondria-driven cell injury. Cardiolipin is a phospholipid that is critical to maintain enzyme activity in the electron transport chain. The aim of the current study was to characterize the changes in sphingolipids and cardiolipin in ER, MAM, and mitochondria during the progression of aging in young (3 mo.), middle (18 mo.), and aged (24 mo.) C57Bl/6 mouse hearts. ER stress increased in hearts from 18 mo. mice and mice exhibited mitochondrial dysfunction by 24 mo. Hearts were pooled to isolate ER, MAM, and subsarcolemmal mitochondria (SSM). LC-MS/MS quantification of lipid content showed that aging increased ceramide content in ER and MAM. In addition, the contents of sphingomyelin and monohexosylceramides are also increased in the ER from aged mice. Aging increased the total cardiolipin content in the ER. Aging did not alter the total cardiolipin content in mitochondria or MAM yet altered the composition of cardiolipin with aging in line with increased oxidative stress compared to young mice. These results indicate that alteration of sphingolipids can contribute to the ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction that occurs during aging.

Endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondrial calcium transport contributes to soft extracellular matrix-triggered mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy in breast carcinoma cells. Acta Biomater 2023; 169:192-208. [PMID: 37541606 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.07.060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/06/2023]
Abstract
Although mitochondrial morphology and function are considered to be closely related to matrix stiffness-driven tumor progression, it remains poorly understood how extracellular matrix (ECM) stiffness affects mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy. Here, we found that soft substrate triggered calcium transport by increasing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium release and mitochondrial (MITO) calcium uptake. ER-MITO calcium transport promoted the recruitment of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) to mitochondria and phosphorylation at the serine 616 site, which induced mitochondrial fragmentation and Parkin/PINK1-mediated mitophagy. Furthermore, in vivo experiments demonstrated that soft ECM enhanced calcium levels in tumor tissue, Drp1 activity was required for soft ECM-induced mitochondrial dynamics impairment, and inhibition of Drp1 activity enhanced soft ECM-induced tumor necrosis. In conclusion, we revealed a new mechanism whereby ER-MITO calcium transport regulated mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy through Drp1 translocation in response to soft substrates. These findings provide valuable insights into ECM stiffness as a potential target for antitumor therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Here, we examined the relationship between substrate stiffness and mitochondrial dynamics by using polyacrylamide (PAA) substrates to simulate the stages of breast cancer or BAPN to reduce tumor tissue stiffness. The results elucidated that soft substrate triggered the recruitment of DRP1 and subsequent mitochondrial fission and mitophagy by ER-MITO calcium transport. Furthermore, mitophagy partly attenuated soft ECM-mediated tumor tissue necrosis and contributed to tumor survival in vivo. Our discoveries revealed the molecular mechanisms by which mechanical stimulation regulates mitochondrial dynamics, providing valuable insights into ECM stiffness as a target for anti-tumor approaches, which could be beneficial for both biomechanics research and clinical applications.

Abstract
The Ca2+ release in microdomains formed by intercompartmental contacts, such as mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs), encodes a signal that contributes to Ca2+ homeostasis and cell fate control. However, the composition and function of MAMs remain to be fully defined. Here, we focused on the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), a Ca2+-permeable ion channel and a polymodal nociceptor. We found TRPV1 channels in the reticular membrane, including some at MAMs, in a rat cardiomyoblast cell line (SV40-transformed H9c2) by Western blotting, immunostaining, cell fractionation, and proximity ligation assay. We used chemical and genetic probes to perform Ca2+ imaging in four cellular compartments: the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), cytoplasm, mitochondrial matrix, and mitochondrial surface. Our results showed that the ER Ca2+ released through TRPV1 channels is detected at the mitochondrial outer membrane and transferred to the mitochondria. Finally, we observed that prolonged TRPV1 modulation for 30 min alters the intracellular Ca2+ equilibrium and influences the MAM structure or the hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced cell death. Thus, our study provides the first evidence that TRPV1 channels contribute to MAM Ca2+ exchanges.

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.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, ranging from liver steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, which ultimately progresses to fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Individuals with NAFLD have a higher risk of developing cardiovascular and extrahepatic cancers. Despite the great progress being made in understanding the pathogenesis and the introduction of new pharmacological targets for NAFLD, no drug or intervention has been accepted for its management. Recent evidence suggests that NAFLD may be a mitochondrial disease, as mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in the pathological processes that lead to NAFLD. In this review, we describe the recent advances in our understanding of the mechanisms associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in NAFLD progression. Moreover, we discuss recent advances in the efficacy of mitochondria-targeted compounds (e.g., Mito-Q, MitoVit-E, MitoTEMPO, SS-31, mitochondrial uncouplers, and mitochondrial pyruvate carrier inhibitors) for treating NAFLD. Furthermore, we present some medications currently being tested in clinical trials for NAFLD treatment, such as exercise, mesenchymal stem cells, bile acids and their analogs, and antidiabetic drugs, with a focus on their efficacy in improving mitochondrial function. Based on this evidence, further investigations into the development of mitochondria-based agents may provide new and promising alternatives for NAFLD management.

Abstract
Mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) communication relies on platforms formed at the ER membrane with the mitochondrial outer membrane contact sites (MERCs). MERCs are involved in several processes including the unfolded protein response (UPR) and calcium (Ca2+) signaling. Therefore, as alterations in MERCs greatly impact cellular metabolism, pharmacological interventions to preserve productive mitochondrial-ER communication have been explored to maintain cellular homeostasis. In this regard, extensive information has documented the beneficial and potential effects of sulforaphane (SFN) in different pathological conditions; however, controversy has arisen regarding the effect of this compound on mitochondria-ER interaction. Therefore, in this study, we investigated whether SFN could induce changes in MERCs under normal culture conditions without damaging stimuli. Our results indicate that non-cytotoxic concentration of 2.5 μM SFN increased ER stress in cardiomyocytes in conjunction with a reductive stress environment, that diminishes ER-mitochondria association. Additionally, reductive stress promotes Ca2+ accumulation in the ER of cardiomyocytes. These data show an unexpected effect of SFN on cardiomyocytes grown under standard culture conditions, promoted by the cellular redox unbalance. Therefore, it is necessary to rationalize the use of compounds with antioxidant properties to avoid triggering cellular side effects.

Abstract
The flexibility between the wide array of hepatic functions relies on calcium (Ca2+) signalling. Indeed, Ca2+ is implicated in the control of many intracellular functions as well as intercellular communication. Thus, hepatocytes adapt their Ca2+ signalling depending on their nutritional and hormonal environment, leading to opposite cellular functions, such as glucose storage or synthesis. Interestingly, hepatic metabolic diseases, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases, are associated with impaired Ca2+ signalling. Here, we present the hepatocytes' toolkit for Ca2+ signalling, complete with regulation systems and signalling pathways activated by nutrients and hormones. We further discuss the current knowledge on the molecular mechanisms leading to alterations of Ca2+ signalling in hepatic metabolic diseases, and review the literature on the clinical impact of Ca2+-targeting therapeutics.

Acta Physiol (Oxf) 2023; 239:e14018. [PMID: 37401731 DOI: 10.1111/apha.14018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/05/2023]
Abstract
AIM Under hypobaric hypoxia (HH), the heart triggers various defense mechanisms including metabolic remodeling against lack of oxygen. Mitofusin 2 (MFN2), located at the mitochondrial outer membrane, is closely involved in the regulation of mitochondrial fusion and cell metabolism. To date, however, the role of MFN2 in cardiac response to HH has not been explored. METHODS Loss- and gain-of-function approaches were used to investigate the role of MFN2 in cardiac response to HH. In vitro, the function of MFN2 in the contraction of primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes under hypoxia was examined. Non-targeted metabolomics and mitochondrial respiration analyses, as well as functional experiments were performed to explore underlying molecular mechanisms. RESULTS Our data demonstrated that, following 4 weeks of HH, cardiac-specific MFN2 knockout (MFN2 cKO) mice exhibited significantly better cardiac function than control mice. Moreover, restoring the expression of MFN2 clearly inhibited the cardiac response to HH in MFN2 cKO mice. Importantly, MFN2 knockout significantly improved cardiac metabolic reprogramming during HH, resulting in reduced capacity for fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and oxidative phosphorylation, and increased glycolysis and ATP production. In vitro data showed that down-regulation of MFN2 promoted cardiomyocyte contractility under hypoxia. Interestingly, increased FAO through palmitate treatment decreased contractility of cardiomyocyte with MFN2 knockdown under hypoxia. Furthermore, treatment with mdivi-1, an inhibitor of mitochondrial fission, disrupted HH-induced metabolic reprogramming and subsequently promoted cardiac dysfunction in MFN2-knockout hearts. CONCLUSION Our findings provide the first evidence that down-regulation of MFN2 preserves cardiac function in chronic HH by promoting cardiac metabolic reprogramming.

Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 205:25-46.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria are the main sites for the storage and regulation of Ca2+ homeostasis. An imbalance of Ca2+ homeostasis can cause ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction, thereby inducing apoptosis. The store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is the main channel for extracellular calcium influx. Mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum (MAM) is an important agent for Ca2+ transfer from the ER to the mitochondria. Therefore, regulation of SOCE and MAMs has potential therapeutic value for disease prevention and treatment. In this study, bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs) and mice were used as models to explore the mechanisms of β-carotene to relieve ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction. BAPTA-AM, EGTA (Ca2+ inhibitor), and BTP2 (SOCE channel inhibitor) alleviated ER stress and mitochondrial oxidative damage induced by increased intracellular Ca2+ levels after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. Furthermore, inhibition of ER stress by 4-PBA (ER stress inhibitor), 2-APB (IP3R inhibitor), and ruthenium red (mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) inhibitor) restored mitochondrial function by reducing mitochondrial ROS. Our data also confirm that β-carotene targeted STIM1 and IP3R channels to repair LPS-induced ER stress and mitochondrial disorders. Consistent with the in vitro study, in vito experiments in mice further showed that β-carotene attenuated LPS-induced ER stress and mitochondrial oxidative damage by inhibiting the expression of STIM1 and ORAI1, and reducing the level of Ca2+ in mouse mammary glands. Therefore, ER stress-mitochondrial oxidative damage mediated by the STIM1-ER-IP3R/GRP75/VDAC1-MCU axis plays an vital role in the development of mastitis. Our results provided novel ideas and therapeutic targets for the prevention and treatment of mastitis.

Abstract
Interorganelle contacts and communications are increasingly recognized to play a vital role in cellular function and homeostasis. In particular, the mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane contact site (MAM) is known to regulate ion and lipid transfer, as well as signaling and organelle dynamics. However, the regulatory mechanisms of MAM formation and their function are still elusive. Here, we identify mitochondrial Lon protease (LonP1), a highly conserved mitochondrial matrix protease, as a new MAM tethering protein. The removal of LonP1 substantially reduces MAM formation and causes mitochondrial fragmentation. Furthermore, deletion of LonP1 in the cardiomyocytes of mouse heart impairs MAM integrity and mitochondrial fusion and activates the unfolded protein response within the ER (UPRER). Consequently, cardiac-specific LonP1 deficiency causes aberrant metabolic reprogramming and pathological heart remodeling. These findings demonstrate that LonP1 is a novel MAM-localized protein orchestrating MAM integrity, mitochondrial dynamics, and UPRER, offering exciting new insights into the potential therapeutic strategy for heart failure.

High-sensitivity calcium biosensor on the mitochondrial surface reveals that IP3R channels participate in the reticular Ca2+ leak towards mitochondria. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0285670.

Abstract
Genetically encoded biosensors based on fluorescent proteins (FPs) are widely used to monitor dynamics and sub-cellular spatial distribution of calcium ion (Ca2+) fluxes and their role in intracellular signaling pathways. The development of different mutations in the Ca2+-sensitive elements of the cameleon probes has allowed sensitive range of Ca2+ measurements in almost all cellular compartments. Region of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) tethered to mitochondria, named as the mitochondrial-associated membranes (MAMs), has received an extended attention since the last 5 years. Indeed, as MAMs are essential for calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial function, molecular tools have been developed to assess quantitatively Ca2+ levels in the MAMs. However, sensitivity of the first generation Ca2+ biosensors on the surface of the outer-mitochondrial membrane (OMM) do not allow to measure μM or sub-μM changes in Ca2+ concentration which prevents to measure the native activity (unstimulated exogenously) of endogenous channels. In this study, we assembled a new ratiometric highly sensitive Ca2+ biosensor expressed on the surface of the outer-mitochondrial membrane (OMM). It allows the detection of smaller differences than the previous biosensor in or at proximity of the MAMs. Noteworthy, we demonstrated that IP3-receptors have an endogenous activity which participate to the Ca2+ leak channel on the surface of the OMM during hypoxia or when SERCA activity is blocked.

Abstract
Pyruvate metabolism, a key pathway in glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, is crucial for energy homeostasis and mitochondrial quality control (MQC), including fusion/fission dynamics and mitophagy. Alterations in pyruvate flux and MQC are associated with reactive oxygen species accumulation and Ca2+ flux into the mitochondria, which can induce mitochondrial ultrastructural changes, mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic dysregulation. Perturbations in MQC are emerging as a central mechanism for the pathogenesis of various metabolic diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes and insulin resistance-related diseases. Mitochondrial Ca2+ regulates the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC), which is central to pyruvate metabolism, by promoting its dephosphorylation. Increase of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) is associated with perturbation of mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) function and Ca2+ flux. Pyruvate metabolism also plays an important role in immune cell activation and function, dysregulation of which also leads to insulin resistance and inflammatory disease. Pyruvate metabolism affects macrophage polarization, mitochondrial dynamics and MAM formation, which are critical in determining macrophage function and immune response. MAMs and MQCs have also been intensively studied in macrophage and T cell immunity. Metabolic reprogramming connected with pyruvate metabolism, mitochondrial dynamics and MAM formation are important to macrophages polarization (M1/M2) and function. T cell differentiation is also directly linked to pyruvate metabolism, with inhibition of pyruvate oxidation by PDKs promoting proinflammatory T cell polarization. This article provides a brief review on the emerging role of pyruvate metabolism in MQC and MAM function, and how dysfunction in these processes leads to metabolic and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-mitochondria contact sites are crucial to allow Ca2+ flux between them and a plethora of proteins participate in tethering both organelles together. Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) play a pivotal role at such contact sites, participating in both ER-mitochondria tethering and as Ca2+-transport system that delivers Ca2+ from the ER towards mitochondria. At the ER-mitochondria contact sites, the IP3Rs function as a multi-protein complex linked to the voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) in the outer mitochondrial membrane, via the chaperone glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75). This IP3R-GRP75-VDAC1 complex supports the efficient transfer of Ca2+ from the ER into the mitochondrial intermembrane space, from which the Ca2+ ions can reach the mitochondrial matrix through the mitochondrial calcium uniporter. Under physiological conditions, basal Ca2+ oscillations deliver Ca2+ to the mitochondrial matrix, thereby stimulating mitochondrial oxidative metabolism. However, when mitochondrial Ca2+ overload occurs, the increase in [Ca2+] will induce the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore, thereby provoking cell death. The IP3R-GRP75-VDAC1 complex forms a hub for several other proteins that stabilize the complex and/or regulate the complex's ability to channel Ca2+ into the mitochondria. These proteins and their mechanisms of action are discussed in the present review with special attention for their role in pathological conditions and potential implication for therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We previously showed that upregulation of myocardial adenosine monophosphate deaminase (AMPD) is associated with pressure overload-induced diastolic dysfunction in type 2 diabetes hearts. Here, we examined involvement of AMPD localized in the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface in mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and its pathological significance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used type 2 diabetes Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima Fatty rats (OLETF) and non-diabetes Long-Evans Tokushima Otsuka Fatty rats (LETO) as well as AMPD3-overexpressing H9c2 cells and human embryonic kidney 293 cells. RESULTS OLETF, but not LETO, showed diastolic dysfunction under the condition of phenylephrine-induced pressure overload. The levels of 90-kDa AMPD3 in outer mitochondrial membranes/endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) fractions were significantly higher in OLETF than in LETO. The area of the MAM quantified by electron microscopic analysis was 57% larger, mitochondrial Ca2+ level under the condition of pressure overload was 47% higher and Ca2+ retention capacity in MAM-containing crude mitochondria isolated before the pressure overloading was 21% lower in OLETF than in LETO (all P-values <0.05). Transfection of FLAG-AMPD3 in cells resulted in significant enlargement of the MAM area, and impairment in pyruvate/malate-driven adenosine triphosphate-stimulated and uncoupler-stimulated mitochondrial respiration compared with those in control cells. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that 90-kDa AMPD3 localized in the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria interface promotes formation of the MAM, inducing mitochondrial Ca2+ overload and dysfunction in type 2 diabetes hearts.

Abstract
Cardiac aging is evident by a reduction in function which subsequently contributes to heart failure. The metabolic microenvironment has been identified as a hallmark of malignancy, but recent studies have shed light on its role in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Various metabolic pathways in cardiomyocytes and noncardiomyocytes determine cellular senescence in the aging heart. Metabolic alteration is a common process throughout cardiac degeneration. Importantly, the involvement of cellular senescence in cardiac injuries, including heart failure and myocardial ischemia and infarction, has been reported. However, metabolic complexity among human aging hearts hinders the development of strategies that targets metabolic susceptibility. Advances over the past decade have linked cellular senescence and function with their metabolic reprogramming pathway in cardiac aging, including autophagy, oxidative stress, epigenetic modifications, chronic inflammation, and myocyte systolic phenotype regulation. In addition, metabolic status is involved in crucial aspects of myocardial biology, from fibrosis to hypertrophy and chronic inflammation. However, further elucidation of the metabolism involvement in cardiac degeneration is still needed. Thus, deciphering the mechanisms underlying how metabolic reprogramming impacts cardiac aging is thought to contribute to the novel interventions to protect or even restore cardiac function in aging hearts. Here, we summarize emerging concepts about metabolic landscapes of cardiac aging, with specific focuses on why metabolic profile alters during cardiac degeneration and how we could utilize the current knowledge to improve the management of cardiac aging.

Abstract
Mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) are formed by physical connections of the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. Over the past decades, great breakthroughs have been made in the study of ER-mitochondria communications. It has been identified that MAM compartments are pivotal in regulating neurological function. Accumulating studies indicated that MAMs participate in the development of cardiovascular diseases. However, the specific role of MAMs in heart failure remains to be fully understood. In this article, we first summarize the structural and functional properties of MAM and MAM-associated proteins. We then focus on the roles of MAMs in myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy and heart failure, and discuss the involvement of MAMs in disease progression and treatment. Elucidating these issues may provide important insights into therapeutic intervention of heart failure.

Abstract
Mitochondria are key players in energy production, critical activity for the smooth functioning of energy-demanding organs such as the muscles, brain, and heart. Therefore, dysregulation or alterations in mitochondrial bioenergetics primarily perturb these organs. Within the cell, mitochondria are the major site of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production through the activity of different enzymes since it is one of the organelles with the major availability of oxygen. ROS can act as signaling molecules in a number of different pathways by modulating calcium (Ca2+) signaling. Interactions among ROS and calcium signaling can be considered bidirectional, with ROS regulating cellular Ca2+ signaling, whereas Ca2+ signaling is essential for ROS production. In particular, we will discuss how alterations in the crosstalk between ROS and Ca2+ can lead to mitochondrial bioenergetics dysfunctions and the consequent damage to tissues at high energy demand, such as the heart. Changes in Ca2+ can induce mitochondrial alterations associated with reduced ATP production and increased production of ROS. These changes in Ca2+ levels and ROS generation completely paralyze cardiac contractility. Thus, ROS can hinder the excitation-contraction coupling, inducing arrhythmias, hypertrophy, apoptosis, or necrosis of cardiac cells. These interplays in the cardiovascular system are the focus of this review.

ALDH2 attenuates ischemia and reperfusion injury through regulation of mitochondrial fusion and fission by PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 195:219-230.

Abstract
The function of mitochondrial fusion and fission is one of the important factors causing ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in diabetic myocardium. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is abundantly expressed in heart, which involved in the regulation of cellular energy metabolism and stress response. However, the mechanism of ALDH2 regulating mitochondrial fusion and fission in diabetic myocardial I/R injury has not been elucidated. In the present study, we found that the expression of ALDH2 was downregulated in rat diabetic myocardial I/R model. Functionally, the activation of ALDH2 resulted in the improvement of cardiac hemodynamic parameters and myocardial injury, which were abolished by the treatment of Daidzin, a specific inhibitor of ALDH2. In H9C2 cardiomyocyte hypoxia-reoxygenation model, ALDH2 regulated the dynamic balance of mitochondrial fusion and fission and maintained mitochondrial morphology stability. Meanwhile, ALDH2 reduced mitochondrial ROS levels, and apoptotic protein expression in cardiomyocytes, which was associated with the upregulation of phosphorylation (p-PI3KTyr458, p-AKTSer473, p-mTOR). Moreover, ALDH2 suppressed the mitoPTP opening through reducing 4-HNE. Therefore, our results demonstrated that ALDH2 alleviated the ischemia and reperfusion injury in diabetic cardiomyopathy through inhibition of mitoPTP opening and activation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

Targeting mitochondrial impairment for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases: From hypertension to ischemia-reperfusion injury, searching for new pharmacological targets. Biochem Pharmacol 2023; 208:115405. [PMID: 36603686 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2022.115405] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Mitochondria and mitochondrial proteins represent a group of promising pharmacological target candidates in the search of new molecular targets and drugs to counteract the onset of hypertension and more in general cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Indeed, several mitochondrial pathways result impaired in CVDs, showing ATP depletion and ROS production as common traits of cardiac tissue degeneration. Thus, targeting mitochondrial dysfunction in cardiomyocytes can represent a successful strategy to prevent heart failure. In this context, the identification of new pharmacological targets among mitochondrial proteins paves the way for the design of new selective drugs. Thanks to the advances in omics approaches, to a greater availability of mitochondrial crystallized protein structures and to the development of new computational approaches for protein 3D-modelling and drug design, it is now possible to investigate in detail impaired mitochondrial pathways in CVDs. Furthermore, it is possible to design new powerful drugs able to hit the selected pharmacological targets in a highly selective way to rescue mitochondrial dysfunction and prevent cardiac tissue degeneration. The role of mitochondrial dysfunction in the onset of CVDs appears increasingly evident, as reflected by the impairment of proteins involved in lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial dynamics, respiratory chain complexes, and membrane polarization maintenance in CVD patients. Conversely, little is known about proteins responsible for the cross-talk between mitochondria and cytoplasm in cardiomyocytes. Mitochondrial transporters of the SLC25A family, in particular, are responsible for the translocation of nucleotides (e.g., ATP), amino acids (e.g., aspartate, glutamate, ornithine), organic acids (e.g. malate and 2-oxoglutarate), and other cofactors (e.g., inorganic phosphate, NAD+, FAD, carnitine, CoA derivatives) between the mitochondrial and cytosolic compartments. Thus, mitochondrial transporters play a key role in the mitochondria-cytosol cross-talk by leading metabolic pathways such as the malate/aspartate shuttle, the carnitine shuttle, the ATP export from mitochondria, and the regulation of permeability transition pore opening. Since all these pathways are crucial for maintaining healthy cardiomyocytes, mitochondrial carriers emerge as an interesting class of new possible pharmacological targets for CVD treatments.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death worldwide and in particular, ischemic heart disease holds the most considerable position. Even if it has been deeply studied, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is still a side-effect of the clinical treatment for several heart diseases: ischemia process itself leads to temporary damage to heart tissue and obviously the recovery of blood flow is promptly required even if it worsens the ischemic injury. There is no doubt that mitochondria play a key role in pathogenesis of IRI: dysfunctions of these important organelles alter cell homeostasis and survival. It has been demonstrated that during IRI the system of mitochondrial quality control undergoes alterations with the disruption of the complex balance between the processes of mitochondrial fusion, fission, biogenesis and mitophagy. The fundamental role of mitochondria is carried out thanks to the finely regulated connection to other organelles such as plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum and nucleus, therefore impairments of these inter-organelle communications exacerbate IRI. This review pointed to enhance the importance of the mitochondrial network in the pathogenesis of IRI with the aim to focus on potential mitochondria-targeting therapies as new approach to control heart tissue damage after ischemia and reperfusion process.

Abstract
Calcium mishandling and mitochondrial dysfunction have been increasingly recognized as significant factors involved in the progression procedure of cardiomyopathy. Ca2+ mishandling could cause calcium-triggered arrhythmias, which could enhance force development and ATP consumption. Mitochondrial disorganization and dysfunction in cardiomyopathy could disturb the balance of energy catabolic and anabolic procedure. Close spatial localization and arrangement of structural among T-tubule, sarcoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria are important for Ca2+ handling. So that, we illustrate the regulating network between calcium handling and mitochondrial homeostasis, as well as its intracellular mechanisms in this review, which would be worthy to develop novel therapeutic strategy and restore the function of injured cardiomyocytes.

GRP75 Modulates Endoplasmic Reticulum-Mitochondria Coupling and Accelerates Ca 2+-Dependent Endothelial Cell Apoptosis in Diabetic Retinopathy. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12121778.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondrial dysfunction play fundamental roles in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR). However, the interrelationship between the ER and mitochondria are poorly understood in DR. Here, we established high glucose (HG) or advanced glycosylation end products (AGE)-induced human retinal vascular endothelial cell (RMEC) models in vitro, as well as a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DR rat model in vivo. Our data demonstrated that there was increased ER-mitochondria coupling in the RMECs, which was accompanied by elevated mitochondrial calcium ions (Ca2+) and mitochondrial dysfunction under HG or AGE incubation. Mechanistically, ER-mitochondria coupling was increased through activation of the IP3R1-GRP75-VDAC1 axis, which transferred Ca2+ from the ER to the mitochondria. Elevated mitochondrial Ca2+ led to an increase in mitochondrial ROS and a decline in mitochondrial membrane potential. These events resulted in the elevation of mitochondrial permeability and induced the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria into the cytoplasm, which further activated caspase-3 and promoted apoptosis. The above phenomenon was also observed in tunicamycin (TUN, ER stress inducer)-treated cells. Meanwhile, BAPTA-AM (calcium chelator) rescued mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in DR, which further confirmed of our suspicions. In addition, 4-phenylbutyric acid (4-PBA), an ER stress inhibitor, was shown to reverse retinal dysfunction in STZ-induced DR rats in vivo. Taken together, our findings demonstrated that DR fueled the formation of ER-mitochondria coupling via the IP3R1-GRP75-VDAC1 axis and accelerated Ca2+-dependent cell apoptosis. Our results demonstrated that inhibition of ER-mitochondrial coupling, including inhibition of GRP75 or Ca2+ overload, may be a potential therapeutic target in DR.

HSP70 alleviates sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy by attenuating mitochondrial dysfunction-initiated NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis in cardiomyocytes. BURNS & TRAUMA 2022; 10:tkac043.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) is an identified serious complication of sepsis that is associated with adverse outcomes and high mortality. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been implicated in suppressing septic inflammation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether HSP70 can attenuate cellular mitochondrial dysfunction, exuberated inflammation and inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis for SIC intervention. METHODS Mice with cecal ligation plus perforation (CLP) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated H9C2 cardiomyocytes were used as models of SIC. The mouse survival rate, gross profile, cardiac function, pathological changes and mitochondrial function were observed by photography, echocardiography, hematoxylin-eosin staining and transmission electron microscopy. In addition, cell proliferation and the levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8, crystal violet staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Moreover, mitochondrial membrane potential was assessed by immunofluorescence staining, and dynamin-related protein 1 and pyroptosis-related molecules [nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-repeat containing family pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3), caspase-1, gasdermin-D (GSDMD), gasdermin-D N-terminal (GSDMD-N)] were measured by western blotting, immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting. Finally, hsp70.1 knockout mice with CLP were used to verify the effects of HSP70 on SIC and the underlying mechanism. RESULTS Models of SIC were successfully established, as reduced consciousness and activity with liparotrichia in CLP mice were observed, and the survival rate and cardiac ejection fraction (EF) were decreased; conversely, the levels of cTnI, TNF-α and IL-1β and myocardial tissue damage were increased in CLP mice. In addition, LPS stimulation resulted in a reduction in cell viability, mitochondrial destabilization and activation of NLRP3-mediated pyroptosis molecules in vitro. HSP70 treatment improved myocardial tissue damage, survival rate and cardiac dysfunction caused by CLP. Additionally, HSP70 intervention reversed LPS-induced mitochondrial destabilization, inhibited activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome, caspase-1, GSDMD and GSDMD-N, and decreased pyroptosis. Finally, knockout of hsp70.1 mice with CLP aggravated cardiac dysfunction and upregulated NLRP3 inflammasome activity, and exogenous HSP70 significantly rescued these changes. It was further confirmed that HSP70 plays a protective role in SIC by attenuating mitochondrial dysfunction and inactivating pyroptotic molecules. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that mitochondrial destabilization and NLRP3 inflammasome activation-mediated pyroptosis are attributed to SIC. Interestingly, HSP70 ameliorates sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction by improving mitochondrial dysfunction and inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis, and such a result may provide approaches for novel therapies for SIC.

Abstract
The contraction of cardiac muscle underlying the pumping action of the heart is mediated by the process of excitation-contraction coupling (ECC). While triggered by Ca2+ entry across the sarcolemma during the action potential, it is the release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) intracellular Ca2+ store via ryanodine receptors (RyRs) that plays the major role in induction of contraction. Ca2+ also acts as a key intracellular messenger regulating transcription underlying hypertrophic growth. Although Ca2+ release via RyRs is by far the greatest contributor to the generation of Ca2+ transients in the cardiomyocyte, Ca2+ is also released from the SR via inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptors (InsP3Rs). This InsP3-induced Ca2+ release modifies Ca2+ transients during ECC, participates in directing Ca2+ to the mitochondria, and stimulates the transcription of genes underlying hypertrophic growth. Central to these specific actions of InsP3Rs is their localization to responsible signalling microdomains, the dyad, the SR-mitochondrial interface and the nucleus. In this review, the various roles of InsP3R in cardiac (patho)physiology and the mechanisms by which InsP3 signalling selectively influences the different cardiomyocyte cell processes in which it is involved will be presented. This article is part of the theme issue ‘The cardiomyocyte: new revelations on the interplay between architecture and function in growth, health, and disease’.

Abstract
Class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are a family of lipid kinases. They are super elevated in many human cancer types and exert their main cellular functions by activating Akt to trigger an array of distinct responses, affecting metabolism and cell polarity. The signal equally plays important roles in cardiovascular pathophysiology. PI3K is required for cardiogenesis and regulation of cardiac structure and function. Overexpression of PI3K governs the development of cardiac pressure overload adaptation and compensatory hypertrophy. Therefore, inhibition of PI3K shortens life span, enhances cardiac dysfunction and pathological hypertrophy. The inverse inhibition effect, however, desirably destroys many cancer cells by blocking several aspects of the tumorigenesis phenotype. Given the contrasting effects in cardio-oncology; the best therapeutic strategy to target PI3K in cancer, while maintaining or rather increasing cardiac safety is under intense investigational scrutiny. To improve our molecular understanding towards identifying cardiac safety signalling of PI3K and/or better therapeutic strategy for cancer treatment, this article reviews PI3K signalling in cardio-oncology. PI3K signalling at the interface of metabolism, inflammation and immunity, and autonomic innervation networks were examined. Examples were then given of cardiovascular drugs that target the networks, being repurposed for cancer treatment. This was followed by an intersection scheme of the networks that can be functionalised with machine learning for safety and risk prediction, diagnoses, and defining new novel encouraging leads and targets for clinical translation. This will hopefully overcome the challenges of the one-signalling-one-health-outcome alliance, and expand our knowledge of the totality of PI3K signalling in cardio-oncology.

Abstract
The biochemical mechanisms of cell injury and myocardial cell death after myocardial infarction remain unresolved. Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), a key enzyme in prostanoid synthesis, is expressed in human ischemic myocardium and dilated cardiomyopathy, but it is absent in healthy hearts. To assess the role of COX-2 in cardiovascular physiopathology, we developed transgenic mice that constitutively express functional human COX-2 in cardiomyocytes under the control of the α-myosin heavy chain promoter. These animals had no apparent phenotype but were protected against ischemia-reperfusion injury in isolated hearts, with enhanced functional recovery and diminished cellular necrosis. To further explore the phenotype of this animal model, we carried out a differential proteome analysis of wild-type vs. transgenic cardiomyocytes. The results revealed a tissue-specific proteomic profile dominated by mitochondrial proteins. In particular, an increased expression of respiratory chain complex IV proteins was observed. This correlated with increased catalytic activity, enhanced respiratory capacity, and increased ATP levels in the heart of COX-2 transgenic mice. These data suggest a new link between COX-2 and mitochondria, which might contribute to the protective cardiac effects of COX-2 against ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle has a critical role in the regulation of the energy balance of the organism, particularly as the principal tissue responsible for insulin-stimulated glucose disposal and as the major site of peripheral insulin resistance (IR), which has been related to accumulation of lipid intermediates, reduced oxidative capacity of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. These organelles form contact sites, known as mitochondria-associated ER membranes (MAMs). This interconnection seems to be involved in various cellular processes, including Ca2+ transport and energy metabolism; therefore, MAMs could play an important role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Evidence suggests that alterations in MAMs may contribute to IR. However, the evidence does not refer to a specific subcellular location, which is of interest due to the fact that skeletal muscle is constituted by oxidative and glycolytic fibers as well as different mitochondrial populations that appear to respond differently to stimuli and pathological conditions. In this review, we show the available evidence of possible differential responses in the formation of MAMs in skeletal muscle as well as its role in insulin signaling and the beneficial effect it could have in the regulation of energetic metabolism and muscular contraction.

Abstract
In recent years, several studies aimed to investigate the metabolic effects of non-functioning or absent cyclophilin D (CypD), a crucial regulatory component of mitochondrial permeability transition pores. It has been reported that the lack of CypD affects glucose and lipid metabolism. However, the findings are controversial regarding the metabolic pathways involved, and most reports describe the effect of a high-fat diet on metabolism. We performed a lipidomic analysis of plasma and liver samples of CypD-/- and wild-type (WT) mice to reveal the lipid-specific alterations resulting from the absence of CypD. In the CypD-/- mice compared to the WT animals, we found a significant change in 52% and 47% of the measured 225 and 201 lipid species in liver and plasma samples, respectively. The higher total lipid content detected in these tissues was not accompanied by abdominal fat accumulation assessed by nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. We also documented characteristic changes in the lipid composition of the liver and plasma as a result of CypD ablation with the relative increase in polyunsaturated membrane lipid species. In addition, we did not observe remarkable differences in the lipid distribution of hepatocytes using histochemistry, but we found characteristic changes in the hepatocyte ultrastructure in CypD-/- animals using electron microscopy. Our results highlight the possible long-term effects of CypD inhibition as a novel therapeutic consideration for various diseases.

Abstract
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a condition of impaired ventricular remodeling and systolic diastole that is often complicated by arrhythmias and heart failure with a poor prognosis. This study attempted to identify autophagy-related genes (ARGs) with diagnostic biomarkers of DCM using machine learning and bioinformatics approaches. Differential analysis of whole gene microarray data of DCM from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was performed using the NetworkAnalyst 3.0 platform. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) matching (|log2FoldChange ≥ 0.8, p value < 0.05|) were obtained in the GSE4172 dataset by merging ARGs from the autophagy gene libraries, HADb and HAMdb, to obtain autophagy-related differentially expressed genes (AR-DEGs) in DCM. The correlation analysis of AR-DEGs and their visualization were performed using R language. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and combined multi-database pathway analysis were served by the Enrichr online enrichment analysis platform. We used machine learning to screen the diagnostic biomarkers of DCM. The transcription factors gene regulatory network was constructed by the JASPAR database of the NetworkAnalyst 3.0 platform. We also used the drug Signatures database (DSigDB) drug database of the Enrichr platform to screen the gene target drugs for DCM. Finally, we used the DisGeNET database to analyze the comorbidities associated with DCM. In the present study, we identified 23 AR-DEGs of DCM. Eight (PLEKHF1, HSPG2, HSF1, TRIM65, DICER1, VDAC1, BAD, TFEB) molecular markers of DCM were obtained by two machine learning algorithms. Transcription factors gene regulatory network was established. Finally, 10 gene-targeted drugs and complications for DCM were identified.

Intermittent Hypoxia-Induced Cardiomyocyte Death Is Mediated by HIF-1 Dependent MAM Disruption. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11081462. [PMID: 36009181 PMCID: PMC9405320 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11081462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Intermittent hypoxia (IH) is one of the main features of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). Recent findings indicate that hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) promotes cardiomyocytes apoptosis during chronic IH, but the mechanisms involved remain to be elucidated. Here, we hypothesize that IH-induced ER stress is associated with mitochondria-associated ER membrane (MAM) alteration and mitochondrial dysfunction, through HIF-1 activation. Methods: Right atrial appendage biopsies from patients with and without SDB were used to determine HIF-1α, Grp78 and CHOP expressions. Wild-type and HIF-1α+/− mice were exposed to normoxia (N) or IH (21–5% O2, 60 cycles/h, 8 h/day) for 21 days. Expressions of HIF-1α, Grp78 and CHOP, and apoptosis, were measured by Western blot and immunochemistry. In isolated cardiomyocytes, we examined structural integrity of MAM by proximity ligation assay and their function by measuring ER-to-mitochondria Ca2+ transfer by confocal microscopy. Finally, we measured mitochondrial respiration using oxygraphy and calcium retention capacity (CRC) by spectrofluorometry. MAM structure was also investigated in H9C2 cells incubated with 1 mM CoCl2, a potent HIF-1α inducer. Results: In human atrial biopsies and mice, IH induced HIF-1 activation, ER stress and apoptosis. IH disrupted MAM, altered Ca2+ homeostasis, mitochondrial respiration and CRC. Importantly, IH had no effect in HIF-1α+/− mice. Similar to what observed under IH, HIF-1α overexpression was associated with MAM alteration in H9C2. Conclusion: IH-induced ER stress, MAM alterations and mitochondrial dysfunction were mediated by HIF-1; all these intermediate mechanisms ultimately inducing cardiomyocyte apoptosis. This suggests that HIF-1 modulation might limit the deleterious cardiac effects of SDB.

Abstract
The pineal gland is a neuroendocrine gland which produces melatonin, a neuroendocrine hormone with critical physiological roles in the circadian rhythm and sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin has been shown to possess anti-oxidant activity and neuroprotective properties. Numerous studies have shown that melatonin has significant functions in cardiovascular disease, and may have anti-aging properties. The ability of melatonin to decrease primary hypertension needs to be more extensively evaluated. Melatonin has shown significant benefits in reducing cardiac pathology, and preventing the death of cardiac muscle in response to ischemia-reperfusion in rodent species. Moreover, melatonin may also prevent the hypertrophy of the heart muscle under some circumstances, which in turn would lessen the development of heart failure. Several currently used conventional drugs show cardiotoxicity as an adverse effect. Recent rodent studies have shown that melatonin acts as an anti-oxidant and is effective in suppressing heart damage mediated by pharmacologic drugs. Therefore, melatonin has been shown to have cardioprotective activity in multiple animal and human studies. Herein, we summarize the most established benefits of melatonin in the cardiovascular system with a focus on the molecular mechanisms of action.
