Mitochondrial Activity and Dynamics Changes Regarding Metabolism in Ageing and Obesity
Open accessAbstract
Mitochondria play an essential role in ageing and longevity. During ageing, a general deregulation of metabolism occurs, affecting molecular, cellular and physiological activities in the organism. Dysfunction of mitochondria has been associated with ageing and age-related diseases indicating their importance in the maintenance of cell homeostasis. Three major nutritional sensors, mTOR, AMPK and Sirtuins are involved in the control of mitochondrial physiology. These nutritional sensors control mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics by regulating fusion and fission processes, and turnover through mito- and autophagy. Apart of the known factors involved in fusion, OPA1 and mitofusins, and fission, DRP1 and FIS1, emerging factors such as prohibitins and sestrins can play important functions in mitochondrial dynamics regulation. Mitochondria is also affected by sexual hormones that suffer drastic changes during ageing. The recent literature demonstrates the complex interaction between nutritional sensors and mitochondrial homeostasis in the physiology of adipose tissue and in the accumulation of fat in other organs such as muscle and liver. In this article, the role of mitochondrial homeostasis in ageing and age-dependent fat accumulation is revised. This review highlights the importance of mitochondria in the accumulation of fat during ageing and related diseases such as obesity, metabolic syndrome or type 2 diabetes mellitus.

TL;DR
This narrative review argues that mitochondrial dysfunction sits at the centre of age-dependent fat accumulation, linking the mTOR/AMPK/sirtuin nutrient-sensing network to mitochondrial biogenesis, fusion/fission dynamics and mito-/autophagy. It contrasts the fusion-prone, giant-mitochondria phenotype of ageing with the fission-driven, small damaged mitochondria seen in obesity and high-fat feeding, and adds hormonal, inflammatory and newly described peptide regulators to the picture.
Key findings
- Three major nutritional sensors — mTOR, AMPK and sirtuins — control mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics (fusion via OPA1/mitofusins, fission via DRP1/FIS1) and turnover through mito- and autophagy; AMPK and SIRT1 modulate PGC1α by phosphorylation and deacetylation respectively.
- Ageing and obesity diverge in mitochondrial morphology: ageing is associated with accumulation of giant, highly interconnected dysfunctional mitochondria (reported in human lymphocytes and mouse cells), whereas fat accumulation and obesity are associated with increased fission, fragmentation and reduced Mfn2, producing small, low-potential mitochondria.
- Reduced Mfn2 expression is reported in skeletal muscle of both obese and T2DM patients, with the reduction directly proportional to BMI and inversely proportional to insulin response (Pich et al., 2005, as cited).
- A study of 248 non-diabetic participants from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging is cited as associating impaired mitochondrial capacity with greater insulin resistance (Fabbri et al., 2016).
- Emerging regulators are highlighted: prohibitins (PHB-1/PHB-2, linked to OPA1 stabilization and, when overexpressed in adipocytes, to obesity development in mice), sestrins (Sesn2/Sesn3, AMPK activation and mTORC1 repression), and mitochondrial-derived peptides MOTS-c and humanin (a 24-amino-acid peptide) with protective effects against age- and diet-induced insulin resistance and obesity in mice.
- Oestrogen decline during ageing is proposed as a key driver of mitochondrial dysfunction and fat redistribution, via effects on PGC1α, fusion genes and prohibitin expression; rising FSH is also linked to visceral fat accumulation.
- Mitochondrial dysfunction is proposed to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome via ROS, creating a vicious cycle with caspase-1, fat cell senescence and SASP.
Methods
- Narrative review; no primary experimental data, systematic search strategy or meta-analysis is described.
- Evidence is synthesised from cited animal models (mice, rats, *Drosophila*, *C. elegans*) and human studies (skeletal muscle, liver, adipose tissue, breast cancer cell lines, POMC/NPY-Agrp neurons).
- Organised thematically: molecular regulation of mitochondrial physiology; ageing effects on activity and turnover; age-dependent fat accumulation; metabolic syndrome; inflammation; sexual hormones; and hypothalamic control of satiety.
Limitations
- Stated by the paper: the factors controlling changes in mitochondrial dynamics during ageing "have not been determined yet"; whether mitochondrial dysfunction causes or is a consequence of fat accumulation "is not clear"; the role of mitochondria in muscle in high-fat-diet-induced T2DM "is not completely clear," with discrepant rat studies showing either reduced or increased mitochondrial content and lipid oxidation; and no information is available on sestrin activity in adipose tissue or its behaviour during ageing, with no human studies performed yet.
- Evident from the text: as a narrative review it presents no new data, and several key claims (e.g., sestrins as regulators of fat accumulation, oestrogen–mitochondria links in fat) rest on indirect or hypothetical evidence the author himself flags as requiring further study; the manuscript also appears in a pre-publication form containing tracked reviewer-response text and grammatical inconsistencies.

Aging is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and altered myokine-adipokine signaling, which impair ability to adapt to energetic demands and stressors.
“At the cellular level, aging is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and altered myokine–adipokine signaling, which collectively impair the body’s ability to adapt to energetic demands and external stressors [2,3].”
From Exercise-Induced Muscle–Fat Crosstalk: Molecular Mediators and Their Pharmacological Modulation for the Maintenance of Metabolic Flexibility in Aging (2025) · cites this paper as [3]
The Introduction links mitochondrial dysfunction to functional decline during ageing and reports an association between impaired mitochondrial capacity and insulin resistance. The section “Mitochondrial activity and turnover are affected during ageing” also discusses oxidative stress and damaged mitochondria. Our copy does not establish altered myokine–adipokine signaling or that these factors collectively impair adaptation to energetic demands and external stressors. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-09.
Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-09.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
