Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction (SIMD) is a prevalent and severe form of organ dysfunction with elusive underlying mechanisms and limited treatment options. In this study, the cecal ligation and puncture and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were used to reproduce sepsis model in vitro and vivo. The level of voltage-dependent anion channel 2 (VDAC2) malonylation and myocardial malonyl-CoA were detected by mass spectrometry and LC-MS-based metabolomics. Role of VDAC2 malonylation on cardiomyocytes ferroptosis and treatment effect of mitochondrial targeting nano material TPP-AAV were observed. The results showed that VDAC2 lysine malonylation was significantly elevated after sepsis. In addition, the regulation of VDAC2 lysine 46 (K46) malonylation by K46E and K46Q mutation affected mitochondrial-related ferroptosis and myocardial injury. The molecular dynamic simulation and circular dichroism further demonstrated that VDAC2 malonylation altered the N-terminus structure of the VDAC2 channel, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, increasing mitochondrial ROS levels, and leading to ferroptosis. Malonyl-CoA was identified as the primary inducer of VDAC2 malonylation. Furthermore, the inhibition of malonyl-CoA using ND-630 or ACC2 knock-down significantly reduced the malonylation of VDAC2, decreased the occurrence of ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes, and alleviated SIMD. The study also found that the inhibition of VDAC2 malonylation by synthesizing mitochondria targeting nano material TPP-AAV could further alleviate ferroptosis and myocardial dysfunction following sepsis. In summary, our findings indicated that VDAC2 malonylation plays a crucial role in SIMD and that targeting VDAC2 malonylation could be a potential treatment strategy for SIMD.
