The mitochondrial calcium uniporter engages UCP1 to form a thermoporter that promotes thermogenesis

Kaili Xue et al.

Summary: In this study, the researchers uncover a thermoporter, formed by the MCU-EMRE-UCP1 complex, which plays a crucial role in regulating thermogenesis by modulating mitochondrial calcium uptake and uncoupled respiration. Manipulation of this thermoporter may offer a potential strategy for combating obesity and associated metabolic disorders.

MICU1 controls spatial membrane potential gradients and guides Ca2+ fluxes within mitochondrial substructures

Benjamin Gottschalk et al.

Summary: This study reveals the role of MICU1 in controlling the spatial membrane potential gradients in mitochondria, with changes in SMPGs and spatial cristae depolarization occurring when Ca2+ binds to MICU1.

AIDA directly connects sympathetic innervation to adaptive thermogenesis by UCP1

Meng Shi et al.

Summary: The study reveals a direct mechanistic link between sympathetic input and UCP1-mediated adaptive thermogenesis by showing that adrenergic signalling phosphorylates AIDA, which in turn interacts with and promotes oxidation of UCP1. This association between AIDA and UCP1 is highly conserved in mammals, including hibernators.

The mechanism of MICU-dependent gating of the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter

Vivek Garg et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the MICU subunits do not block the MCUcx pore in the absence or presence of extramitochondrial Ca2+, but instead potentiate MCUcx activity by modifying its gating properties to spend more time in the open state when extramitochondrial Ca2+ is elevated.
