Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Acute Fatty Liver of Pregnancy
Edit
This entry is adapted from the peer-reviewed paper 10.3390/ijms23073595

The liver is one of the richest organs in mitochondria, serving as a hub for key metabolic pathways such as β-oxidation, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, ketogenesis, respiratory activity, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis, all of which provide metabolic energy for the entire body. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been linked to subcellular organelle dysfunction in liver diseases, particularly fatty liver disease. Acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP) is a life-threatening liver disorder unique to pregnancy, which can result in serious maternal and fetal complications, including death. Pregnant mothers with this disease require early detection, prompt delivery, and supportive maternal care. AFLP was considered a mysterious illness and though its pathogenesis has not been fully elucidated, molecular research over the past two decades has linked AFLP to mitochondrial dysfunction and defects in fetal fatty-acid oxidation (FAO). Due to deficient placental and fetal FAO, harmful 3-hydroxy fatty acid metabolites accumulate in the maternal circulation, causing oxidative stress and microvesicular fatty infiltration of the liver, resulting in AFLP.

1. Acute Fatty Liver of Pregnancy (AFLP)

AFLP is a rare, third-trimester liver disorder unique to pregnancy with significant perinatal and maternal mortality. It was first described in 1934 by Stander as “yellow acute atrophy of the liver”. The incidence of AFLP is reported to be from 1 in 7270 to 1 in 13,000. The disease tends to recur in future pregnancies in approximately 20% of pregnancies complicated by AFLP. The underlying molecular mechanism for this recurrence is likely the strong association between maternal AFLP and pediatric fatty-acid oxidation defects [1].
AFLP presents in the third trimester, rarely late in the second trimester. The initial presentation is typically vague and include general symptoms such as epigastric pain, nausea, and vomiting [1] associated with elevation in liver transaminases. Occasionally, AFLP may present as asymptomatic elevation of transaminases, and jaundice is seen on initial presentation in severe cases [2]. Rarely, AFLP may present with symptoms of acute liver failure including encephalopathy and bleeding due to coagulopathy, but typically these symptoms are seen 1–2 weeks after initial presentation. AFLP is associated with preeclampsia is in >50% of cases.
Hypoglycemia, acute pancreatitis, infection, and acute renal failure are among the early complications of AFLP, while hepatic encephalopathy is considered a late complication and suggests development of acute liver failure. These complications are associated with significant perinatal and maternal mortality. Delivery can be complicated with severe postpartum hemorrhage. Diabetes insipidus has been reported to complicate AFLP [2].
AFLP is primarily diagnosed based on clinical criteria. Laboratory abnormalities include moderate elevation of liver transaminases. The severity of liver dysfunction does not correlate with the degree of transaminases elevation. Leukocytosis is often seen as well. Platelet count is typically normal except when disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is present. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine are also generally elevated. As the disease progresses and liver function worsens, hypoglycemia, and encephalopathy with elevated ammonia develop. Liver biopsy is not required for diagnosis. Liver biopsy typically shows microvesicular fatty infiltration in the hepatocytes [3]. Imaging studies are also of little value for diagnosis of AFLP [1] and are useful to rule out conditions such as hepatic ischemia, hepatic infarct, Budd–Chiari syndrome, or hepatic hematoma/rupture.
Prompt delivery after initial support measures is a cure [2][3][4]. When complications are present, complete recovery may take days to weeks. Prothrombin time improvement is the first sign of hepatic recovery. In general, there is no hepatic sequela after recovery. Rarely, AFLP patients with severe and rapidly progressing acute hepatic failure are referred for liver transplantation.

2. Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Pathogenesis of AFLP

2.1. Mitochondrial Dynamics and Biogenesis

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that change their structure and shape in response to the energy demand and supply through fusion and fission processes [5][6]. Mitochondrial fission and fusion play important roles in maintaining the function of mitochondria under conditions of metabolic or environmental distress. Fusion is a process that helps mitigate cellular stress by mixing the contents of partially damaged mitochondria to promote complementation. Fission is needed to create new mitochondria, but it also contributes to quality control by enabling the removal of damaged mitochondria. Disruptions of these processes have been implicated in disease. Mitochondrial fission occurs when oxidative stress damages mitochondria, resulting in the separation of damaged mitochondria from healthy mitochondria [7][8]. Mitochondrial fusion-fission balance is disrupted by intracellular and external stress, resulting in mitochondrial fragmentation [9]. Mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with excessive fission, characterized by increased levels of the fission protein dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1). The dysregulation of proteins involved in mitochondrial fission has an important impact on mitochondrial morphology and function [10][11]. In mammalian cells, mitofusin-1 (Mfn1) and mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) are the primary mediators of mitochondrial fusion and are responsible for the fusion process of the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) [12]. The protein Optic atrophy 1 (Opa1) regulates the fusion of the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM), which is required for maintaining the balance between mitochondrial fusion and fission [13][14]. In clinical conditions involving placental dysfunction, changes in the expression of OPA1, SIRT3, and MFN1 have been identified [15][16]. PGC-1α (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1) and nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1), which regulate expression of mtDNA and nuclear DNA genes encoding subunits of the MRC complexes and mtDNA replication and transcription, respectively, control mitochondrial biogenesis [17][18]. Because mitochondria are essential for metabolism and energy production [19][20][21] as well as regulating signaling pathways that mediate these processes [22][23], changes in mitochondrial dynamics can play an important role in the onset and progression of liver disease [24].

2.2. Mitochondrial Fatty-Acid Oxidation (FAO)

2.2.1. Fatty Acid Transport to Mitochondria

Figure 1 provides a schematic representation of FA transport to mitochondria. Free fatty acids (FFAs) in the liver are derived from plasma FFAs produced by adipose tissue and chylomicrons, or they are synthesized de novo in the liver. These FFAs are either oxidized in mitochondria or esterified as triglycerides in hepatocytes, where they accumulate as fat droplets or are packaged with apolipoprotein B, cholesterol esters, and phospholipids to be secreted as very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs) [21][25].

2.2.2. Mitochondrial β-Oxidation Cycle

Figure 2 depicts a schematic representation of mitochondrial fatty-acid oxidation and energy production. Mitochondrial β-oxidation is the primary oxidative mechanism for fatty acids including the oxidation of short-chain (<C6), medium-chain (C6–C12), and long-chain (>C12) fatty acids [26]. Long-chain fatty acids can only reach the mitochondria via CPT1 transport mechanism [27]. Short- and medium-chain fatty acids can freely enter the mitochondria. As a result, CPT1 in the mitochondria is the rate-limiting enzyme in β-oxidation.

2.2.3. Oxidative Phosphorylation

The main source of cellular energy is the electron transport chain (ETC) and oxidative phosphorylation through critical activities of protein complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane. High-energy electrons released during the citric acid cycle and β-oxidation are captured by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), resulting in NADH and FADH2, respectively [28]. NADH and FADH2 molecules donate these high-energy electrons to the ETC [29]. The transfer of electrons to O2 is an energy-yielding reaction by the passage of electrons through a series of carriers, which constitute the ETC. These carriers include four complexes (complex I, II, III, IV) in the inner mitochondrial membrane. A fifth protein complex (complex V), also in the inner mitochondrial membrane, then serves to couple the energy-yielding reactions of electron transport to ATP synthesis. Complex I receives electrons from NADH, while complex II receives electrons from FADH2. Complexes I and II provide electrons to Coenzyme Q (CoQ). CoQ (also called ubiquinone) is a small, lipid-soluble molecule that carries electrons through the MIM to complex III. Electrons are then transferred from complex III to cytochrome c, which then carries electrons to complex IV (cytochrome oxidase), where they are finally transferred to O2. Water is formed as a result of electron transfer from Complex IV to oxygen. At complexes I, III, and IV, free energy is released as electrons pass along the chain, which is utilized to pump protons from the mitochondrial matrix to the intermembranous region, forming a proton gradient. The potential energy stored in this gradient is then used by a fifth protein complex (complex V), which couples the flow of protons along the electrochemical gradient back across the MIM to the synthesis of ATP.

2.3. Regulation of Mitochondrial Fatty-Acid Oxidation and Reactive Oxygen Species Formation

CPT1 is inhibited by malonyl-CoA, which is formed during the first step of the synthesis of FFAs from acetyl-CoA by acetyl-CoA carboxylase [21][24]. Insulin has been shown to increase malonyl-CoA synthesis, which inhibits CPTI. Glucagon, on the other hand, decreases malonyl-CoA synthesis, leading to an increase in β-oxidation [30]. FFAs are degraded into acetyl-CoA molecules, which can either be fully degraded to CO2 by the Krebs cycle or condensed into ketone bodies, which are re-oxidized in peripheral tissues during fasting [19][21]. Under normal circumstances, this process carefully controls energy storage and disposal; however, it is hampered in patients with fatty liver disease, causing oxidative stress [19][31][32]. Increased oxidative stress causes inflammation directly by activating a number of inflammatory-signaling pathways, including the NF-κB and JNK pathways, as well as indirectly by increasing the gene expression of inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α, TGF-β, and Fas ligand [33]. Reduced mitophagy leads to an accumulation of significantly damaged mitochondria, which causes cell necrosis and the release of mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), which may promote liver inflammation [34].
ROS such as superoxide anions, peroxides, and others are generated in the cytosol by enzymes such as amino acid oxidases, cyclooxygenases, lipoxygenases, nitric oxide (NO) synthase, and xanthine oxidase [35][36][37]. By transferring a single electron from NADPH to molecular oxygen, it becomes NADPH oxidase, which is the key source of ROS in liver diseases and produces superoxide anions in the mitochondria [38][39][40].
Mitochondrial ROS activate AMPK [22][24] and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), including c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) [41]. AMPK induces PGC-1α and promotes glucose and fatty-acid oxidation. PGC-1α interacts with the peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor (PPAR) to increase mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation by inducing the expression of multiple fatty acid-metabolizing enzymes, such as CPT1 and acyl-CoA dehydrogenases [42]. By activating NRF2, H2O2 production by mitochondria activates AMPK, which regulates antioxidant enzyme expression [24]. Proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), and interleukin 1β (IL-1β) are also stimulated by ROS development. The presence of oxidative stress in cells may set off a chain reaction that contributes to increased mtDNA damage and increased mitochondrial dysfunction [43].

2.4. Mitochondrial Fatty-Acid Oxidation Defects

The last three steps of long-chain fatty-acid oxidation are catabolized by MTP, a heterooctamer of 4 α- and 4 β- subunits associated with the inner mitochondrial membrane [44]. The long-chain 3-enoyl-CoA hydratase enzymatic activity resides in the α-subunit amino-terminal domain while the carboxy-terminal domain contains the LCHAD enzymatic activity. The long-chain 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase enzymatic activity resides in the β-subunit. Both MTP subunit genes, HADHA and HADHB, are localized to chromosome 2p23 [45], and share a bidirectional promoter [46]. MTP defects are recessively inherited and can manifest as either an isolated LCHAD deficiency or complete MTP deficiency, in which all three enzymes are deficient [47]. Infants born with these recessively inherited disorders typically present with nonketotic hypoglycemia and hepatic encephalopathy, which may progress to coma and death [48]. They can also present as unexpected death, cardiomyopathy, or slowly progressive myopathy and peripheral neuropathy [49][50]. A common mutation in exon 15 of the α-subunit, G1528C, which causes an amino acid change at position 474 in the LCHAD catalytic site from glutamic acid to glutamine (E474Q) [51][52].

3. Mechanism of the Association between Fetal LCHAD Deficiency and AFLP

The precise mechanism for the association between fetal LCHAD-deficiency and maternal AFLP is not fully elucidated. Figure 3 depicts the likely mechanisms underlying the association between fetal LCHAD and maternal AFLP. Mitochondrial dysfunction and damage have been documented in children with LCHAD deficiency [53][54][55]. It is likely that hepatotoxic long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl fatty acid intermediates produced in the fetus due to blockages in the mitochondrial β-oxidation caused by the fetal LCHAD deficiency will accumulate in the maternal circulation causing liver injury and AFLP. It is also highly likely that the placenta is the major source for the 3-hydroxy fatty acid metabolites.

The accumulation of cytotoxic 3-hydroxy fatty acids in maternal circulation is likely to cause microvesicular steatosis in maternal liver with disruption of β-oxidation and oxidative phosphorylation processes in the liver, causing decreased ATP production and increased ROS, leading to further mitochondrial damage [56][57][58]. Damage to the mitochondrial membrane in the liver was reported in a rat model of microvesicular steatosis [59][60]. Increased superoxide generation associated with reduced respiration and alterations to mitochondrial calcium homeostasis were also reported in placenta isolated from patients with AFLP.

4. Conclusions

In conclusion, AFLP is a rare but life-threatening complication of pregnancy with serious fetal and maternal consequences. The pathogenesis of AFLP is strongly linked to mitochondrial dysfunction associated with fetal LCHAD deficiency. Current evidence supports an important role for placental injury and oxidative stress causing subcellular damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. The release of toxic 3-hydroxy intermediate metabolites from the LCHAD-deficient placenta and fetus into the maternal circulation is likely to be a culprit in inducing AFLP in the pregnant mother. Further research is needed to explore the role of 3-hydroxy fatty acid metabolites in the pathogenesis of AFLP.
