Hepatic energy depletion has been described in severe sepsis, and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to cause mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage. To clarify the mechanisms of LPS-induced mtDNA damage and mitochondrial alterations, we treated wild-type (WT) or transgenic manganese superoxide dismutase-over-erexpressing (MnSOD(+++)) mice with a single dose of LPS (5 mg/kg). In WT mice, LPS increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species formation, hepatic inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS) mRNA and protein, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1 beta, and high-mobility group protein B1 concentrations. Six to 48 h after LPS administration (5 mg/kg), liver mtDNA levels, respiratory complex I activity, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) contents were decreased. In addition, LPS increased interferon-beta concentration and decreased mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) mRNA, Tfam protein, and mtDNA-encoded mRNAs. Morphological studies showed mild hepatic inflammation. The LPS (5 mg/kg)-induced mtDNA depletion, complex I inactivation, ATP depletion, and alanine aminotransferase increase were prevented in MnSOD(+++) mice or in WT mice cotreated with 1400W (a NOS inhibitor), (2-(2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl-4-ylamino)-2-oxoethyl) triphenylphosphonium chloride, monohydrate (a superoxide scavenger) or uric acid (a peroxynitrite scavenger). The MnSOD overexpression delayed death in mice challenged by a higher, lethal dose of LPS (25 mg/kg). In conclusion, LPS administration damages mtDNA and alters mitochondrial function. The protective effects of MnSOD, NOS inhibitors, and superoxide or peroxynitrite scavengers point out a role of the superoxide anion reacting with NO to form mtDNA- and protein-damaging peroxynitrite. In addition to the acute damage caused by reactive species, decreased levels of mitochondrial transcripts contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 15, 2837-2854.
