Mitochondrial aconitase controls adipogenesis through mediation of cellular ATP production

Abstract: Mitochondrial aconitase (Aco2) catalyzes the conversion of citrate to isocitrate in the TCA cycle, which produces NADH and FADH2, driving synthesis of ATP through OXPHOS. In this study, to explore the relationship between adipogenesis and mitochondrial energy metabolism, we hypothesize that Aco2 may play a key role in the lipid synthesis. Here, we show that overexpression of Aco2 in 3T3-L1 cells significantly increased lipogenesis and adipogenesis, accompanied by elevated mitochondrial biogenesis and ATP produ… Show more

“…Aconitase 1 (Aco1) and aconitase 2 (Aco2), two aconitase isoforms, present in the cytoplasm and mitochondria, respectively [ 18 ]. Deficiency of Aco1 and Aco2 are associated with increased risk of optic atrophy and encephalopathy, respectively [ 21 , 22 ]. These diseases are caused by autosomal recessive mutations in Aco 1 and 2.…”

“…In addition, other differential proteins have been reported to be associated with metabolism or obesity. Aconitate hydratase is involved in tricarboxylic acid cycle and carbohydrate metabolism, catalyzes the isomerization of citrate into isocitrate through cisaconite acid, and can control adipogenesis by mediating the production of cellular ATP [29]. Inhibin and activin can inhibit and activate pituitary secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone, respectively.…”
