| Abstract: | Mammalian hibernators endure severe and prolonged hypothermia that is lethal to non-hibernators, including humans and mice. The mechanisms responsible for the cold resistance remain poorly understood. Here, we found that hepatocytes from a mammalian hibernator, the Syrian hamster, exhibited remarkable resistance to prolonged cold culture, whereas murine hepatocytes underwent cold-induced cell death that fulfills the hallmarks of ferroptosis such as necrotic morphology, lipid peroxidation and prevention by an iron chelator. Unexpectedly, hepatocytes from Syrian hamsters exerted resistance to cold- and drug-induced ferroptosis in a diet-dependent manner, with the aid of their superior ability to retain dietary alpha -tocopherol (alpha T), a vitamin E analog, in the liver and blood compared with those of mice. The liver phospholipid composition is less susceptible to peroxidation in Syrian hamsters than in mice. Altogether, the cold resistance of the hibernator's liver is established by the ability to utilize alpha T effectively to prevent lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis. Daisuke Anegawa et al. investigated the mechanisms responsible for cold resistance in the Syrian hamster's hepatocytes, which exhibited remarkable resistance to prolonged cold culture. Their results suggest that hepatocytes exhibit diet-dependent resistance to cold, which is linked to the retention of alpha -tocopherol in the liver. |
