Inhibition of mitochondrial fission prevents cell cycle progression in lung cancer
Open accessAbstract
Mitochondria exist in dynamic networks that undergo fusion and fission. Mitochondrial fusion and fission are mediated by several GTPases in the outer mitochondrial membrane, notably mitofusin‐2 (Mfn‐2), which promotes fusion, and dynamin‐related protein (Drp‐1), which promotes fission. We report that human lung cancer cell lines exhibit an imbalance of Drp‐1/Mfn‐2 expression, which promotes a state of mitochondrial fission. Lung tumor tissue samples from patients demonstrated a similar increase in Drp‐1 and decrease in Mfn‐2 when compared to adjacent healthy lung. Complementary approaches to restore mitochondrial network formation in lung cancer cells by overexpression of Mfn‐2, Drp‐1 inhibition, or Drp‐1 knockdown resulted in a marked reduction of cancer cell proliferation and an increase in spontaneous apoptosis. The number of cancer cells in S phase decreased from 32.4 ± 0.6 to 6.4 ± 0.3% with Drp‐1 inhibition ( P < 0.001). In a xenotransplantation model, Mfn‐2 gene therapy or Drp‐1 inhibition could regress tumor growth. The tumor volume decreased from 205.6 ± 59 to 70.6 ± 15 mm 3 ( P <0.05) with Mfn‐2 overexpression and from 186.0 ± 19 to 87.0 ± 6 mm 3 ( P <0.01) with therapeutic Drp‐1 inhibition. Impaired fusion and enhanced fission contribute fundamentally to the proliferation/apoptosis imbalance in cancer and constitute promising novel therapeutic targets.—Rehman, J., Zhang, H. J., Toth, P.

“Recent studies have demonstrated that mitochondrial elongation factor 1 (MIEF-1) and mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) can affect Drp-1 localization and activity and thus regulate mitochondrial fission (32, 33).”

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.
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.
