线粒体嵴超微结构决定ATP合酶的组织方式和能量产生效率,对调控小胶质细胞介导的 脑缺血后神经炎症至关重要。本研究鉴定出一种化学探针——淫羊藿苷II(ICS),通过靶向 磷酸丙糖异构酶1(TPI1)恢复线粒体嵴结构。ICS诱导TPI1构象转换,招募ATP5MF驱动 F1Fo-ATP合酶二聚化,通过心磷脂介导的膜曲率生成促进嵴形态发生。功能上,靶向TPI1 重编程小胶质细胞免疫代谢:恢复氧化磷酸化(OXPHOS)、抑制mtDNA-STING神经炎症、 促进M2抗炎极化。在MCAO大鼠模型中,药物靶向TPI1抑制小胶质细胞激活并逆转病理进程。 脑卒中患者样本进一步证实TPI1与小胶质细胞激活的相关性。

🔑 核心发现:TPI1通过调控线粒体嵴超微结构重编程小胶质细胞 免疫代谢,为缺血性脑卒中提供新的治疗靶点。

Figure 2 | Fig. 2: TPI1 conformational switching recruits ATP5MF to drive F1Fo-ATP synthase dimerization. Structural analysis shows TPI1 undergoes a conformational change upon icariin II (ICS) binding, exposing a binding interface for ATP5MF recruitment. This interaction promotes ATP synthase dimerization essential for cristae formation.
