| Study Title | Defective mitochondria remodelling in B cells leads to an aged immune response |
| Study Summary | The germinal centre (GC) reaction requires a unique bioenergetic supply. Although mitochondria are remodelled upon antigen stimulation, mitochondrial function in B cells is still poorly understood. To gain a better understanding of the role of mitochondria in B cell function, we generated mice that lack, specifically in B cells, Tfam, a transcription factor necessary for mitochondrial biogenesis. Tfam knock-out (KO) mice displayed a blockage of the GC reaction and established an immune response featured by the differentiation of activated B cells towards memory B cells and aged-related B cells, hallmarks of an aged immune response. Unexpectedly, GC blockage in Tfam KO mice did not cause defects in the bioenergetic supply, but this phenotype was associated with a defect in the remodelling of the lysosomal compartment in B cells. Therefore, these results may describe a new mitochondrial function for antigen presentation during the GC reaction, the abrogation of which may be the basis of an aged immune response. |

| MS Comments: | Cell homogenates were prepared by adding 1:1 v/v water: methanol and sonicated with a dr.hielscher UP200S (dr.hielscher, Berlin, Germany), set up to 80% intensity, 0.5 s/pulse, 16 pulses. For GC-MS, 100 μL of each homogenate was mixed with 300 μL of cold methanol containing 25 ppm D-palmitic acid (internal standard), vortex mixed for 60 min and centrifuged at 4000 g for 20 min. 250 μL of the supernatant were transferred to a vial with a glass insert and evaporated to dryness in a Gyrozen HyperVac VC2124 (Gimpo, Korea) coupled to a LVS 110Z (Gardner Denver Thomas GmbH Welch Vacuum, Fürstenfeldbruck, Germany). The samples were then submitted to methoximation (with O-methoxyamine) for 16 h and silylation for 1 h at 70ºC with N,O-Bis(trime5j,thylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) and trimethylchlorosilane (TCMS), and finally resuspended in 100 μL heptane. The samples were injected onto a DB5-MS column (30 m x 0.250 mm, 0.25 μm) with a 10 m pre-column (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara CA, USA). Helium was used as mobile phase at constant flow rate (1 mL/min) in a GC-Q-MS 5975 system (Agilent Technologies) with an Electron Ionization (EI) source at 70 eV. |
