Popis: T-cell intracellular antigen 1 (TIA1) is a multifunctional RNA-binding protein involved in regulating gene expression and splicing during development and in response to environmental stress, to maintain cell homeostasis and promote survival. Herein, we used TIA1-deficient murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) to study their role in mitochondria homeostasis. We found that the loss of TIA1 was associated with changes in mitochondrial morphology, promoting the appearance of elongated mitochondria with heterogeneous cristae density and size. The proteomic patterns of TIA1-deficient MEFs were consistent with expression changes in molecular components related tomitochondrial dynamics/organization and respiration. Bioenergetics analysis illustrated that TIA1 deficiency enhances mitochondrial respiration. Overall, our findings shed light on the role of TIA1 in mitochondrial dynamics and highlight a point of crosstalk between potential pro-survival and pro-senescence pathways
