摘要

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists (GLP-1RAs) ameliorate mitochondrial health by increasing mitochondrial turnover in metabolically relevant tissues. Mitochondrial adaptation to metabolic stress is crucial to maintain pancreatic β-cell function and prevent type 2 diabetes (T2D) progression. While the GLP-1R is well-known to stimulate cAMP production leading to Protein Kinase A (PKA) and Exchange Protein Activated by cyclic AMP 2 (Epac2) activation, there is a lack of understanding of the molecular mechanisms linking GLP-1R signalling with mitochondrial and β-cell functional adaptation. Here, we present a comprehensive study in β-cell lines and primary islets that demonstrates that, following GLP-1RA stimulation, GLP-1R-positive endosomes associate with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane contact site (MCS) tether VAPB at ER-mitochondria MCSs (ERMCSs), where active GLP-1R engages with SPHKAP, an A-kinase anchoring protein (AKAP) previously linked to T2D and adiposity risk in genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The inter-organelle complex formed by endosomal GLP-1R, ER VAPB and SPHKAP triggers a pool of ERMCS-localised cAMP/PKA signalling via the formation of a PKA-RIα biomolecular condensate which leads to changes in mitochondrial contact site and cristae organising system (MICOS) complex phosphorylation, mitochondrial remodelling, and β-cell functional adaptation, with important consequences for the regulation of β-cell insulin secretion and survival to stress.
