Abstrakt: | Mitochondrial adaptations are fundamental to differentiated function and energetic homeostasis in mammalian cells. But the mechanisms that underlie these relationships remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated organ-specific mitochondrial morphology, connectivity and protein composition in a model of extreme mammalian metabolism, the least shrew (Cryptotis parva). This was achieved through a combination of high-resolution 3D focused ion beam electron microscopy imaging and tandem mass tag mass spectrometry proteomics. We demonstrate that liver and kidney mitochondrial content are equivalent to the heart, permitting assessment of mitochondrial adaptations in different organs with similar metabolic demand. Muscle mitochondrial networks (cardiac and skeletal) are extensive, with a high incidence of nanotunnels - which collectively support the metabolism of large muscle cells. Mitochondrial networks were not detected in the liver and kidney as individual mitochondria are localized with sites of ATP consumption. This configuration is not observed in striated muscle, likely due to a homogeneous ATPase distribution and the structural requirements of contraction. These results demonstrate distinct, fundamental mitochondrial structural adaptations for similar metabolic demand that are dependent on the topology of energy utilization process in a mammalian model of extreme metabolism. KEY POINTS: Least shrews were studied to explore the relationship between metabolic function, mitochondrial morphology and protein content in different tissues. Liver and kidney mitochondrial content and enzymatic activity approaches that of the heart, indicating similar metabolic demand among tissues that contribute to basal and maximum metabolism. This allows an examination of mitochondrial structure and composition in tissues with similar maximum metabolic demands. Mitochondrial networks only occur in striated muscle. In contrast, the liver and kidney maintain individual mitochondria with limited reticulation. Muscle mitochondrial reticulation is the result of dense ATPase activity and cell-spanning myofibrils which require networking for adequate metabolic support. In contrast, liver and kidney ATPase activity is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and basolateral membrane, respectively, generating a locally balanced energy conversion and utilization. Mitochondrial morphology is not driven by maximum metabolic demand, but by the cytosolic distribution of energy-utilizing systems set by the functions of the tissue. (© 2021 The Authors.
