Research Abstract |
We established a neural cell line N14.5-Tom5 cells, in which mitochondrial protein GFP-Tom5 is stably expressed. By using N14.5-Tom5, we found that activation of GSK3beta or Akt was involved in mitochondrial fission during neural differentiation, and identified the phosphorylation of Drp1, dynamin-related GTPase, by GSK3beta regulated the fission. Interestingly, the phosphorylation of Drp1 is reported be required for the mitochondrial fission at the onset of mitosis in mammalian cells. Next, we constructed model cells that replicated the conditions in neurons of Alzheimer's disease by using the resealing-cell technique and cytosol prepared from ApoE(-/-) mouse. As a result, we found that inactivity of Akt in the model cells caused the elongation of mitochondria and resulted in depressed mitochondrial function. Collectively, the persistent phosphorylation of both GSK3beta and Akt plays a crucial role for the maintaining normal mitochondrial morphology and function.
