( A ) The corpus callosum was harvested from 6-month-old WT, CNP;Drp1 fl/+ , 5XFAD het ;Drp1 +/+ , and 5XFAD het ;CNP;Drp1 fl/+ mice (shown in scheme). Label-free tandem mass spectrometry analysis was conducted to identify the proteins changed by mature OL-specific Drp1 heterozygous knockout in 5XFAD mice. The number of proteins changed in mice of the four genotypes is shown. In particular, 269 proteins accounting for 24.6% of total identified proteins were decreased in 5XFAD mice but elevated in 5XFAD het ;CNP;Drp1 fl/+ mice. Thirty-one proteins were increased in 5XFAD mice and decreased in 5XFAD het ;CNP;Drp1 fl/+ mice. These 300 proteins were used for bioinformatics analysis. ( B ) The molecular and cellular functions of the 300 proteins from the pool marked as * in (A) were analyzed. The proteins were enriched for proteins involved in glycolysis and the TCA cycles and significantly regulated by mature OL-specific Drp1 heterozygous knockout. ( C ) Heatmap analysis for these enriched proteins is shown. ( D ) Mature OLs were treated with oligomeric Aβ 1-42 for 24 hours in the presence or absence of Mdivi-1 (5 μM). The ECAR was analyzed with the seahorse analyzer ( n = 2 replicates per group). The data are from four to five independent experiments. ( E ) Glycolytic and oxidative ATP production rates were calculated as described in Materials and Methods. ( F ) The lactate content of mature OLs was measured. The data are from at least three independent experiments. ( G ) Total protein lysates were prepared from the corpus callosum of mice with the indicated genotypes, and the lactate content was measured. n = 4 mice per group. The data are from at least three independent experiments. All the data are expressed as the mean ± SEM and compared by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test.

Under healthy conditions, HK1 localizes on the mitochondria outer membrane where it binds to VDAC. Mitochondrial HK1 converts glucose to glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-Pi) via phosphorylation, which initiates glycolysis, generating pyruvate and lactate as energy resources. Lactate can also enter neurons to support the TCA cycle and neuronal survival. In AD, Drp1 in mature OLs is hyperactivated by stress (e.g., soluble Aβ). Hyperactivated Drp1 translocates to the mitochondria, where it preferentially binds to VDAC, dissociating HK1 from VDAC. This dissociation inactivates HK1 and suppresses glycolysis. HK1 inactivation and glycolytic inhibition results in glycolytic stress, which induces NLRP3 inflammasome activation, cleavage of GSDMD and pro–IL-1β, and inflammatory injury of the mature OLs. The results are demyelination and axonal degeneration. Down-regulation of Drp1 in the mature OLs blocks these abnormal events from their start and, therefore, reduces the OL inflammation, myelin loss, and white matter degeneration observed in AD.
