Abstract
Golgi-derived PI4P-containing vesicles play important roles in mitochondrial division, which is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. However, the mechanism of the PI4P-containing vesicle effect on mitochondrial division is unclear. Here, we found that actin appeared to polymerize at the contact site between PI4P-containing vesicles and mitochondria, causing mitochondrial division. Increasing the content of PI4P derived from the Golgi apparatus increased actin polymerization and reduced the length of the mitochondria, suggesting that actin polymerization through PI4P-containing vesicles is involved in PI4P vesicle-related mitochondrial division. Collectively, our results support a model in which PI4P-containing vesicles derived from the Golgi apparatus cooperate with actin filaments to participate in mitochondrial division by contributing to actin polymerization, which regulates mitochondrial dynamics. This study enriches the understanding of the pathways that regulate mitochondrial division and provides new insight into mitochondrial dynamics.
