Abstract in Portuguese
ECSIT é uma proteína associada ao complexo I mitocondrial (CI) que demonstrou regular a produção de espécies reativas de oxigênio mitocondriais (mROS) após o envolvimento de receptores Toll-like (TLRs). Geramos uma linhagem de camundongo knockout condicional (CKO) Ecsit para estudar o papel in vivo de ECSIT. A exclusão de ECSIT resulta em alteração profunda do metabolismo de macrófagos, levando a uma mudança marcante para dependência da glicólise, interrupção completa da atividade de CI e perda da holoenzima CI e múltiplos subconjuntos. Um aumento na produção constitutiva de mROS em macrófagos excluídos de ECSIT previne a produção adicional de mROS induzida por TLR. Surpreendentemente, células excluídas de ECSIT acumulam mitocôndrias danificadas devido à mitofagia defeituosa. ECSIT se associa ao regulador de mitofagia PINK1 e exibe ubiquitinação dependente de Parkin. No entanto, após a exclusão de ECSIT, observamos aumento de Parkin mitocondrial sem o aumento esperado na mitofagia. Tomados em conjunto, esses resultados demonstram um papel fundamental do ECSIT na função do CI, na produção de mROS e no controle de qualidade mitocondrial dependente da mitofagia.
Abstract
ECSIT is a mitochondrial complex I (CI)-associated protein that has been shown to regulate the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) following engagement of Toll-like receptors (TLRs). We have generated an Ecsit conditional knockout (CKO) mouse strain to study the in vivo role of ECSIT. ECSIT deletion results in profound alteration of macrophage metabolism, leading to a striking shift to reliance on glycolysis, complete disruption of CI activity, and loss of the CI holoenzyme and multiple subassemblies. An increase in constitutive mROS production in ECSIT-deleted macrophages prevents further TLR-induced mROS production. Surprisingly, ECSIT-deleted cells accumulate damaged mitochondria because of defective mitophagy. ECSIT associates with the mitophagy regulator PINK1 and exhibits Parkin-dependent ubiquitination. However, upon ECSIT deletion, we observed increased mitochondrial Parkin without the expected increase in mitophagy. Taken together, these results demonstrate a key role of ECSIT in CI function, mROS production, and mitophagy-dependent mitochondrial quality control.
