Abstract

Mitochondria are organelles centrally important for bioenergetics as well as regulation of apoptotic death in eukaryotic cells. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), an evolutionarily conserved chromatin-associated protein which maintains nuclear homeostasis, is also a critical regulator of mitochondrial function and morphology VSports手机版. We show that heat shock protein beta-1 (HSPB1 or HSP27) is the downstream mediator of this effect. Disruption of the HSPB1 gene in embryonic fibroblasts with wild-type HMGB1 recapitulates the mitochondrial fragmentation, deficits in mitochondrial respiration, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis observed with targeted deletion of HMGB1. Forced expression of HSPB1 reverses this phenotype in HMGB1 knockout cells. Mitochondrial effects mediated by HMGB1 regulation of HSPB1 expression serve as a defense against mitochondrial abnormality, enabling clearance and autophagy in the setting of cellular stress. Our findings reveal an essential role for HMGB1 in autophagic surveillance with important effects on mitochondrial quality control. .

Figure 6. HMGB1 and HSPB1 regulate mitophagy following rotenone-induced disruption of oxidative phosphorylation
(A) Confocal microscopyana colocalizes mitochondria with LC3, LAMP2 and actin in Hmgb1+/+ (“+/+”), Hmgb1−/− (“−/−”), control shRNA or HSPB1 shRNA MEFs with or without rotenone (2 uM, 6 h). Cytochalasin D (“CytD”, 1 uM, 6h) was used to inhibit actin polymerization. Images were acquired digitally from a randomly selected pool of 10–15 fields under each condition. Quantitative analysis of colocalization (%) was performed. Representative images are showed in Figure S4. In parallel, apoptosis was analyzed by the Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit and mitochondrial membrane potential depolarization (Hmgb1+/+ control group seat as 1) was measured by JC-1 fluorescence. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (*p < 0.01, n=3). (B) Ultrastructural features assessed by electron microscopy in Hmgb1+/+, Hmgb1−/−, control shRNA and HSPB1 shRNA MEFs with or without ATP depletion by rotenone (2 uM, 4h) (arrows point to mitochondria in autophagosomes or autolysosomes which are not apparent in Hmgb1−/− or HSPB1 knockdowns). (C) ATP depletion by rotenone (2 uM, 6 h) increased the expression of p-HSPB1 (Ser15 and Ser86) in Hmgb1+/+ (“+/+”) cells but not Hmgb1−/− (“−/−”) cells. HSPB1 mutants (S15A, S86A) cannot restore the decreased LC3-II and increased p62 expression observed in Hmgb1−/− cells following rotenone treatment. (D) Cells as indicated were treated with rotenone (2 uM) for 6 h, and then cytoplasmic (Cyt), and mitochondrial (Mit) extracts from cells were separated by SDS-PAGE. The blots were probed with antibody against Parkin, Cox IV, tubulin, VDAC1 and Pink1. (E) Cells as indicated were treated with rotenone (2 uM) for 6 h, and then VDAC1 ubiquitylation was assayed by immunoprecipitation (IP) and western blot (IB). (F) Cellular ATP levels and mitochondrial fragmentation was assayed in Hmgb1+/+ (“+/+”) and Hmgb1−/− (“−/−”) cells transfected with HSPB1 vectors with or without Pink1 or Parkin shRNA (mean ±SD, *p < 0.01, ns: not significant).
Figure 7
Figure 7. Schematic of the mechanism by which HMGB1 modulates mitochondrial respiration and morphology by sustaining mitophagy
In wild type cells, HMGB1 functions as a transcriptional regulator of HSPB1 gene expression. Phosphorylation of HSPB1 is necessary to regulate the actin cytoskeleton, which affects the cellular transport of autophagy/mitophagy in response to mitochondrial injury. Loss of either HMGB1 or HSPB1 results in phenotypically similar deficient mitophagy typified by mitochondrial fragmentation, decreased aerobic respiration and subsequent ATP production. OXPHOS: oxidative phosphorylation.
