Mitochondrial copper overload promotes renal fibrosis via inhibiting pyruvate dehydrogenase activity
2024
Overview
Copper is a trace element essential for numerous biological activities, whereas the mitochondria serve as both major sites of intracellular copper utilization and copper reservoir. Here, we investigated the impact of mitochondrial copper overload on the tricarboxylic acid cycle, renal senescence and fibrosis. We found that copper ion levels are significantly elevated in the mitochondria in fibrotic kidney tissues, which are accompanied by reduced pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence and renal fibrosis. Conversely, lowering mitochondrial copper levels effectively restore PDH enzyme activity, improve mitochondrial function, mitigate cellular senescence and renal fibrosis. Mechanically, we found that mitochondrial copper could bind directly to lipoylated dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase (DLAT), the E2 component of the PDH complex, thereby changing the interaction between the subunits of lipoylated DLAT, inducing lipoylated DLAT protein dimerization, and ultimately inhibiting PDH enzyme activity. Collectively, our study indicates that mitochondrial copper overload could inhibit PDH activity, subsequently leading to mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence and renal fibrosis. Reducing mitochondrial copper overload might therefore serve as a strategy to rescue renal fibrosis.
