描述 | The inner mitochondrial membrane mitochondrial fusion protein optic atrophy 1 (OPA1) is required for angiogenesis. In response to angiogenic stimuli, OPA1 levels rapidly increase to limit nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cell (NFκB) signaling, ultimately allowing angiogenic genes expression and angiogenesis. Endothelial Opa1 is indeed required in an NFκB-dependent pathway essential for developmental and tumor angiogenesis, impacting tumor growth and metastatization. MYLS22 is a first-in-class and selective OPA1 inhibitor. MYLS22 can target endothelial OPA1 to curtail tumor growth and inhibits angiogenesis by impinging on NFkB activity and on angiogenic gene expression. MYLS22 (10 mg/kg/die; peritumoral injection; every 2 days for 14 days) causes the tumor growth curtailed mice[2]. The offspring from crosses of a constitutive knockout for the structural complex I component Ndufs4 (Ndufs4(-/-)), and of a muscle-specific conditional knockout for the complex IV assembly factor Cox15 (Cox15(sm/sm)), with Opa1 transgenic (Opa1(tg)) mice showed improved motor skills and respiratory chain activities compared to the naive, non-Opa1-overexpressing, models. While the amelioration was modest in Ndufs4(-/-)::Opa1(tg) mice, correction of cristae ultrastructure and mitochondrial respiration, improvement of motor performance and prolongation of lifespan were remarkable in Cox15(sm/sm)::Opa1(tg) mice. Mechanistically, respiratory chain supercomplexes were increased in Cox15(sm/sm)::Opa1(tg) mice, and residual monomeric complex IV was stabilized[3]. Cardiac function and mitochondrial morphology were rescued by Oma1 deletion, which prevented OPA1 cleavage. Feeding mice a high-fat diet or ablating Yme1l in skeletal muscle restored cardiac metabolism and preserved heart function without suppressing mitochondrial fragmentation. Thus, unprocessed OPA1 is sufficient to maintain heart function, OMA1 is a critical regulator of cardiomyocyte survival, and mitochondrial morphology and cardiac metabolism are intimately linked[4]. |
