Influence of Microbial Metabolites and Itaconic Acid Involved in Bacterial Inflammation on the Activity of Mitochondrial Enzymes and the Protective Role of Alkalization
Human microbiota produces metabolites that may enter the bloodstream and exert systemic influence on various functions including mitochondrial. Mitochondria are not only a target for microbial metabolites, but also themselves, due to the inhibition of several enzymes, produce metabolites involved in...

description | Human microbiota produces metabolites that may enter the bloodstream and exert systemic influence on various functions including mitochondrial. Mitochondria are not only a target for microbial metabolites, but also themselves, due to the inhibition of several enzymes, produce metabolites involved in infectious processes and immune response. The influence of indolic acids, microbial derivatives of tryptophan, as well as itaconic acid, formed in the tricarboxylic acid cycle under the action of bacterial lipopolysaccharides, on the activity of mitochondrial enzymes was studied by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT), dichlorophenolindophenol (DCPIP) and pyridine nucleotide fluorescence assays. Thus, it was found that indolic acids suppressed succinate and glutamate oxidation, shifting the redox potential of pyridine nucleotides to a more oxidized state. Itaconic acid, in addition to the well-known inhibition of succinate oxidation, also decreased NAD reduction in reactions with glutamate as a substrate. Unlike itaconic acid, indolic acids are not direct inhibitors of succinate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase as their effects could be partially eliminated by the thiol antioxidant dithiothreitol (DTT) and the scavenger of lipid radicals butyl-hydroxytoluene (BHT). Alkalization turned out to be the most effective means to decrease the action of these metabolites, including itaconic acid, which is due to the protective influence on redox-dependent processes. Thus, among mitochondrial oxidative enzymes, the most accessible targets of these microbial-related metabolites are succinate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase. These are important in the context of the shifting of metabolic pathways involved in bacterial inflammation and sepsis as well as the detection of new markers of these pathologies. |
