BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESIS: Schizophrenia is associated with altered energy metabolism, but the cause and potential impact of these metabolic changes remain unknown. 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) represents a genetic risk factor for schizophrenia, which is associated with the loss of several genes involved in mitochondrial physiology. Here we examine how the haploinsufficiency of these genes could contribute to the emergence of schizophrenia in 22q11.2DS. STUDY DESIGN: We characterize changes in neuronal mitochondrial function caused by haploinsufficiency of mitochondria-associated genes within the 22q11.2 region (PRODH, MRPL40, TANGO2, ZDHHC8, SLC25A1, TXNRD2, UFD1, and DGCR8). For that purpose, we combine data from 22q11.2DS carriers and schizophrenia patients, in vivo (animal models) and in vitro (induced pluripotent stem cells, IPSCs) studies. We also review the current knowledge about seven non-coding microRNA molecules located in the 22q11.2 region that may be indirectly involved in energy metabolism by acting as regulatory factors. STUDY RESULTS: We found that the haploinsufficiency of genes of interest is mainly associated with increased oxidative stress, altered energy metabolism, and calcium homeostasis in animal models. Studies on IPSCs from 22q11.2DS carriers corroborate findings of deficits in the brain energy metabolism, implying a causal role between impaired mitochondrial function and the development of schizophrenia in 22q11.2DS. CONCLUSIONS: The haploinsufficiency of genes within the 22q11.2 region leads to multifaceted mitochondrial dysfunction with consequences to neuronal function, viability, and wiring. Overlap between in vitro and in vivo studies implies a causal role between impaired mitochondrial function and the development of schizophrenia in 22q11.2DS.

Desmin mutations cause familial and sporadic cardiomyopathies. In addition to perturbing the contractile apparatus, both desmin deficiency and mutated desmin negatively impact mitochondria. Impaired myocardial metabolism secondary to mitochondrial defects could conceivably exacerbate cardiac contractile dysfunction. We performed metabolic myocardial phenotyping in left ventricular cardiac muscle tissue in desmin knock-out mice. Our analyses revealed decreased mitochondrial number, ultrastructural mitochondrial defects, and impaired mitochondria-related metabolic pathways including fatty acid transport, activation, and catabolism. Glucose transporter 1 and hexokinase-1 expression and hexokinase activity were increased. While mitochondrial creatine kinase expression was reduced, fetal creatine kinase expression was increased. Proteomic analysis revealed reduced expression of proteins involved in electron transport mainly of complexes I and II, oxidative phosphorylation, citrate cycle, beta-oxidation including auxiliary pathways, amino acid catabolism, and redox reactions and oxidative stress. Thus, desmin deficiency elicits a secondary cardiac mitochondriopathy with severely impaired oxidative phosphorylation and fatty and amino acid metabolism. Increased glucose utilization and fetal creatine kinase upregulation likely portray attempts to maintain myocardial energy supply. It may be prudent to avoid medications worsening mitochondrial function and other metabolic stressors. Therapeutic interventions for mitochondriopathies might also improve the metabolic condition in desmin deficient hearts.

Psychosis is a state of altered thoughts which often accompanies schizophrenia. It was suggested that changes in energetic metabolism accompany psychosis and post-psychosis states. Here, we use the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist MK-801 to experimentally induce psychosis-like behavior in rats. We addressed an effect of single and repeated (5×) MK-801 application (0.3 mg/kg; i.p.) on the energy metabolism in homogenates and crude mitochondrial fraction (CMF) of the striatum (STR), prefrontal cortex (PFC), and the hippocampus (HIP) of the adult male Wistar rat (n = 39). In each brain region, we assessed activity of glycolytic (hexokinase (HK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)) and Krebs cycle enzymes (citrate synthase (CS) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH)) 2 h and 3 days (3d) after the last MK-801 application together with relative respiratory rates assessment in tissue homogenate. In STR, a single MK-801 application led to a decrease in the LDH (p = 0.0035) and the increase of the MDH (p = 0.0043) activities following 3d. Therein, repeated MK-801 doses evoked increased LDH (p = 0.0204) and CS (p = 0.0019) activities in the homogenate 2 h and increased HK (p = 0.0007) 3d after the last application. Elevated HK activity within CMF was observed after 3d (p = 0.0054). In PFC, repeated MK-801 application decreased HK activity in the homogenate 3d after the final application (p = 0.0234). Correspondingly, PFC HK activity in CMF of repeated administration samples dropped (p = 0.003). In HIP, repeated MK-801 administration led to increased respiration of SDH (p = 0.0475) only 2 h after the last application and decreased CS activity (p = 0.0160) was observed 3d after the last application. Our results indicate a progressive metabolic dysregulation of glycolytic and Krebs cycle enzymes following repeated inhibition of NMDA receptors activity in a region-specific manner. Energetic alterations may form a basis for persisting cognitive problems during and following a psychosis in schizophrenia patients.

Circadian clocks regulate multiple physiological domains from molecular to behavioral levels and adjust bodily physiology to seasonal changes in day length. Circadian regulation of cellular bioenergy and immunity in the cardiovascular and muscle systems may underpin the individual diurnal differences in performance capacity during exercise. Several studies have shown diurnal differences in cardiopulmonary parameters at maximal and submaximal workloads in morning and evening circadian human phenotypes. However, the effect of seasons on these changes was not elucidated. In this study, we recruited subjects with Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire scores corresponding to morning and evening types. Subjects underwent morning (7:00-9:00) and evening (20:00-22:00) maximal workload spiroergometry in both winter and summer seasons. We analyzed their performance time, anaerobic threshold, heart rate, and respiratory parameters. Our results suggest that evening types manifest diurnal variations in physical performance, particularly in winter. They also have slower heart rate recovery than morning types, irrespective of the time of day or season. Compared to winter, the chronotype effect on the magnitude of morning-evening differences in performance time, maximal heart rate, and anaerobic threshold onset was more significant in summer. Our data are in concordance with previous observations and confirm the difference between morning and evening types in the timing of maximum performance capacity.

Mitochondria are cellular organelles essential for energy metabolism and antioxidant defense. Mitochondrial impairment is implicated in many psychiatric disorders, including depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and autism. To characterize and eventually find effective treatments of bioenergetic impairment in psychiatric disease, researchers find animal models indispensable. The present review focuses on brain energetics in several environmental, genetic, drug-induced, and surgery-induced animal models of depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and autism. Most reported deficits included decreased activity in the electron transport chain, increased oxidative damage, decreased antioxidant defense, decreased ATP levels, and decreased mitochondrial potential. Models of depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and autism shared many bioenergetic deficits. This is in concordance with the absence of a disease-specific brain energy phenotype in human patients. Unfortunately, due to the absence of null results in examined literature, indicative of reporting bias, we refrain from making generalized conclusions. Present review can be a valuable tool for comparing current findings, generating more targeted hypotheses, and selecting fitting models for further preclinical research.
