Abstract
Previous phenotyping of glucose homeostasis and insulin secretion in a mouse model of hereditary hemochromatosis (
Hfe
−/−
) and iron overload suggested mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondria from
Hfe
−/−
mouse liver exhibited decreased respiratory capacity and increased lipid peroxidation. Although the cytosol contained excess iron,
Hfe
−/−
mitochondria contained normal iron but decreased copper, manganese, and zinc, associated with reduced activities of copper-dependent cytochrome c oxidase and manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). The attenuation in MnSOD activity was due to substantial levels of unmetallated apoprotein. The oxidative damage in
Hfe
−/−
mitochondria is due to diminished MnSOD activity, as manganese supplementation of
Hfe
−/−
mice led to enhancement of MnSOD activity and suppressed lipid peroxidation. Manganese supplementation also resulted in improved insulin secretion and glucose tolerance associated with increased MnSOD activity and decreased lipid peroxidation in islets. These data suggest a novel mechanism of iron-induced cellular dysfunction, namely altered mitochondrial uptake of other metal ions.
