Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) mediates mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage and biogenic responses. Mitochondrial transcription factor A (Tfam) is an essential regulator for mtDNA transcription and ATP production. Increased ATP levels were associated with normalization of immune function following trauma-hemorrhage. Moreover, administration of 17beta-estradiol following trauma-hemorrhage upregulates cardiac Tfam and ATP levels. We therefore hypothesized that the salutary effect of 17beta-estradiol on Kupffer cell function following trauma-hemorrhage is mediated via negative regulation of TLR4, which downregulates iNOS, upregulates Tfam and mtDNA-encoded gene cytochrome c oxidase I (mtCOI), and consequently increases cellular ATP levels. Male C3H/HeN, C3H/HeOuJ (intact TLR4), and C3H/HeJ (TLR4 mutant) mice were subjected to trauma-hemorrhage (mean BP 35 +/- 5 mmHg approximately 90 min, then resuscitation) or sham operation. At the beginning of resuscitation, mice received 17beta-estradiol (25 microg/25 g) or vehicle intravenously and were sacrificed 2 h thereafter. Kupffer cell TLR4, iNOS, IL-6 and TNF-alpha production capacities were increased, and ATP, Tfam, and mtCOI levels were decreased following trauma-hemorrhage. Administration of 17beta-estradiol following trauma-hemorrhage prevented the increase in Kupffer cell TLR4, iNOS, and cytokine production. This was accompanied by normalized ATP, Tfam, and mtCOI levels. Furthermore, the decreased Kupffer cell ATP and mtCOI levels were not observed in TLR4 mutant mice following trauma-hemorrhage. Taken together, these findings suggest that downregulation of TLR4-dependent ATP production is critical to 17beta-estradiol-mediated immunoprotection in Kupffer cells following trauma-hemorrhage.

D008930 Mitochondria, Liver Mitochondria in hepatocytes. As in all mitochondria, there are an outer membrane and an inner membrane, together creating two separate mitochondrial compartments: the internal matrix space and a much narrower intermembrane space. In the liver mitochondrion, an estimated 67% of the total mitochondrial proteins is located in the matrix.
