Mitochondrial unfolded protein response

The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) is a cellular stress response related to the mitochondria. The UPRmt results from unfolded or misfolded proteins in mitochondria beyond the capacity of chaperone proteins to handle them.[1] The UPRmt can occur either in the mitochondrial matrix or in the mitochondrial inner membrane.[1] In the UPRmt, the mitochondrion will either upregulate chaperone proteins or invoke proteases to degrade proteins that fail to fold properly.[1] UPRmt causes the sirtuin SIRT3 to activate antioxidant enzymes and mitophagy.[2]

Mitochondrial electron transport chain mutations that extend the life span of Caenorhabditis elegans (nematode worms) also activate the UPRmt.[3] Activation of the UPRmt in nematode worms by increasing NAD+ by supplementation with nicotinamide or nicotinamide riboside has been shown to extend lifespan.[4] Nicotinamide riboside supplementation in mice has also been shown to activate the UPRmt.[5]
