26461412What Goes Wrong with Lon in Ageing
26461412We have shown previously that the product of the human lon gene, the Lon protease, selectively degrades oxidized mitochondrial proteins, thus preventing their aggregation and cross-linking
26461412Lon induction, by pre-treatment with low-level stress, protects against oxidative protein damage, diminished mitochondrial function, and loss of cell proliferation, induced by toxic levels of hydrogen peroxide
26461412Blocking Lon induction, with lon siRNA, also blocks this induced protection
26461412In senescent cells, and in older primary cells, however, Lon activity declines, and adaptational responses become sluggish or even ineffectual
26461412Studies in Drosophila melanogaster flies and in mice now suggest that declining Lon activity and declining responsiveness to stress, may contribute to the ageing process, and to various age-associated diseases
26461412We propose that Lon is a generalized stress-protective enzyme whose decline may contribute to the increased levels of protein damage and mitochondrial dysfunction observed in ageing and various age-related diseases
26363553Mitochondrial Lon protease at the crossroads of oxidative stress, ageing and cancer
26363553Lon protease is a nuclear DNA-encoded mitochondrial enzyme highly conserved throughout evolution, involved in the degradation of damaged and oxidized proteins of the mitochondrial matrix, in the correct folding of proteins imported in mitochondria, and in the maintenance of mitochondrial DNA
26363553Lon expression is induced by various stimuli, including hypoxia and reactive oxygen species, and provides protection against cell stress
26363553Lon down-regulation is associated with ageing and with cell senescence, while up-regulation is observed in tumour cells, and is correlated with a more aggressive phenotype of cancer
26363553Lon up-regulation contributes to metabolic reprogramming observed in cancer, favours the switch from a respiratory to a glycolytic metabolism, helping cancer cell survival in the tumour microenvironment, and contributes to epithelial to mesenchymal transition
26363553Silencing of Lon, or pharmacological inhibition of its activity, causes cell death in various cancer cells
26363553Thus, Lon can be included in the growing class of proteins that are not responsible for oncogenic transformation, but that are essential for survival and proliferation of cancer cells, and that can be considered as a new target for development of anticancer drugs
24024159Upregulation of the mitochondrial Lon Protease allows adaptation to acute oxidative stress but dysregulation is associated with chronic stress, disease, and aging
24024159The Lon Protease is a key enzyme in the degradation of oxidized proteins within the mitochondrial matrix
24024159Under conditions of acute stress Lon is highly inducible, possibly with the oxidant acting as the signal inducer, thereby providing increased protection
24024159It seems that under chronic stress conditions, however, Lon levels actually decline
24024159Lon levels also decline with age and with senescence, and senescent cells even lose the ability to induce Lon during acute stress
24024159We propose that the regulation of Lon is biphasic, in that it is up-regulated during transient stress and down-regulated during chronic stress and aging, and we suggest that the loss of Lon responsiveness may be a significant factor in aging, and in age-related diseases
21868393Oxidative damage to mitochondrial proteins is thought to contribute to the aging process, but the Lon protease normally degrades such proteins
21868393In early-passage WI-38 human lung fibroblasts, Lon expression is rapidly induced during H(2)O(2) stress, which prevents the accumulation of oxidized proteins and protects cell viability
21868393In contrast, middle passage cells exhibit only sluggish induction of Lon expression in oxidative stress, and oxidized proteins initially accumulate
21868393Late-passage, or senescent, cells have low basal levels of Lon and high levels of accumulated oxidized proteins; in response to oxidative stress, they fail to induce Lon expression and exhibit continually increasing accumulation of oxidized proteins
21868393These senescent changes are similar to the effects of Lon silencing in young cells
21868393We suggest that loss of Lon stress inducibility is part of a pattern of diminishing stress adaptability that predisposes cells to senescence
20528770In contrast, up-regulation of Nuak2 (NUAK family, SNF1-like kinase 2) and down-regulation of Lonp2 (Lon peptidase 2), Foxo3a (forkhead box O3a), Sod1 (copper/zinc superoxide dismutase) and Sesn1 (sestrin 1) in the kidneys of recuperated offspring suggest that protein homoeostasis and resistance to oxidative stress are compromised, leading to accelerated cellular senescence in these shorter-lived mice
20094032Misfolded proteins deposited at the cell poles lead to selective re-localization of the DnaK/DnaJ/ClpB disaggregating chaperones, but not of GroEL and Lon to these sites
18446870Irreversibly oxidized proteins are targeted to degradation by mitochondrial matrix proteolytic systems such as the Lon protease
18446870The ATP-stimulated Lon protease is believed to play a crucial role in the degradation of oxidized proteins within the mitochondria and age-related declines in the activity and/or expression of this proteolytic system have been previously reported
