The structural disruption of the mitochondrial inner membrane in hepatocytes lacking functional peroxisomes along with selective impairment of respiratory complexes and depletion of mitochondrial DNA was previously reported. In search for the molecular origin of these mitochondrial alterations, we here show that these are tissue selective as they do neither occur in peroxisome deficient brain nor in peroxisome deficient striated muscle. Given the hepatocyte selectivity, we investigated the potential involvement of metabolites that are primarily handled by hepatic peroxisomes. Levels of these metabolites were manipulated in L-PexS knockout mice and/or compared with levels in different mouse models with a peroxisomal beta-oxidation deficiency. We show that neither the deficiency of docosahexaenoic acid nor the accumulation of branched chain fatty acids, dicarboxylic acids or C27 bile acid intermediates are solely responsible for the mitochondrial anomalies. In conclusion, we demonstrate that peroxisomal inactivity differentially impacts mitochondria depending on the cell type but the cause of the mitochondrial destruction needs to be further explored.
