Project Title:Muscle-type specific stress responses explain external ophthalmoplegia in mitochondrial disease
Project Summary:Mitochondrial dysfunctions elicit progressive tissue-specific stress responses that can be protective or deleterious. Here, we show that even different muscles of an individual react differently to mitochondrial disease. In mitochondrial myopathy (MM), the extraocular muscles (EOMs) are affected first, followed by exercise intolerance in the large lower limb muscles. Both muscle types show clear signs of respiratory chain deficiency. However, the limbs upregulate the mitochondrial integrated stress response (ISRmt) that drives glucose carbons to anabolic repair pathways, while EOMs present no signs of ISRmt. In contrast, in EOMs, Pdk4 activation inhibits pyruvate metabolism, while beta-oxidation of fatty acids is induced - despite the reliance of beta-oxidation on a functional respiratory chain for ATP production. The data suggest that the inability to upregulate ISRmt and consequent deleterious fuel choices sensitize EOMs to early weakness and atrophy, explaining ophthalmoplegia, the most common MM sign. The distinct responses to disease even in muscles of a single individual predict different responses to treatment, which is essential knowledge when designing interventions.
