    Abstract:
    This study investigated the mechanism by which NR4A1 regulates mitochondrial fission factor (Mff)-related mitochondrial fission and FUN14 domain 1 (FUNDC1)-mediated mitophagy following cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury(I/R). Our findings showed that the damage regulation was positively correlated with the pathological fission and pan-apoptosis of myocardial cell mitochondria. Compared with wild-type mice (WT), NR4A1-knockout mice exhibited resistance to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and mitochondrial pathological fission, characterized by mitophagy activation. Results showed that ischemia-reperfusion injury increased NR4A1 expression level, activating mitochondrial fission mediated by Mff and restoring the mitophagy phenotype mediated by FUNDC1. The inactivation of FUNDC1 phosphorylation could not mediate the normalization of mitophagy in a timely manner, leading to an excessive stress response of unfolded mitochondrial proteins and an imbalance in mitochondrial homeostasis. This process disrupted the normalization of the mitochondrial quality control network, leading to accumulation of damaged mitochondria and the activation of pan-apoptotic programs. Our data indicate that NR4A1 is a novel and critical target in myocardial I/R injury that exertsand negative regulatory effects by activating Mff-mediated mito-fission and inhibiting FUNDC1-mediated mitophagy. Targeting the crosstalk balance between NR4A1-Mff-FUNDC1 is a potential approach for treating I/R.
