5-Heptadecylresorcinol Improves Aging-Associated Hepatic Fatty Acid Oxidation Dysfunction via Regulating Adipose Sirtuin 3.

ABSTRACT: Aging-associated hepatic fatty acid (FA) oxidation dysfunction contributes to impaired adaptive thermogenesis. 5-Heptadecylresorcinol (AR-C17) is a prominent functional component of whole wheat and rye, and has been demonstrated to improve the thermogenic capacity of aged mice via the regulation of Sirt3. However, the effect of AR-C17 on aging-associated hepatic FA oxidation dysfunction remains unclear. Here, 18-month-old C57BL/6J mice were orally administered with AR-C17 at a dose of 150 mg/kg/day for 8 weeks. Systemic glucose and lipid metabolism, hepatic FA oxidation, and the lipolysis of white adipose tissues (WAT) were measured. The results showed that AR-C17 improved the hepatic FA oxidation, and especially acylcarnitine metabolism, of aged mice during cold stimulation, with the enhancement of systemic glucose and lipid metabolism. Meanwhile, AR-C17 improved the WAT lipolysis of aged mice, promoting hepatic acylcarnitine production. Furthermore, the adipose-specific Sirt3 knockout mice were used to investigate and verify the regulation mechanism of AR-C17 on aging-associated hepatic FA oxidation dysfunction. The results showed that AR-C17 failed to improve the WAT lipolysis and hepatic FA oxidation of aged mice in the absence of adipose Sirt3, indicating that AR-C17 might indirectly influence hepatic FA oxidation via regulating WAT Sirt3. Our findings suggest that AR-C17 might improve aging-associated hepatic FA oxidation dysfunction via regulating adipose Sirt3.

Project description:ObjectiveAlterations in lipid metabolism are associated with aging and age-related diseases. Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) is a lysosome-dependent process involved in specific protein degradation. Heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein (Hsc70) recognizes cytosolic proteins with KFERQ motif and allows them to enter the lysosome via lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 isoform A (LAMP2A). CMA deficiency is associated with dysregulated lipid metabolism in the liver. In this study, we examined the effect of CMA on lipid metabolism in the aged liver.Methods12-week-old and 88-week-old mice were employed to assess the effect of aging on hepatic CMA activity. We generated CMA-deficient mouse primary hepatocytes using siRNA for Lamp2a and liver-specific LAMP2A knockdown mice via adeno-associated viruses expressing short hairpin RNAs to investigate the influence of CMA on lipid metabolism.ResultsWe noted aging-induced progression toward fatty liver and a decrease in LAMP2A levels in total protein and lysosomes. The expression of genes associated with fatty acid oxidation was markedly downregulated in the aged liver, as verified in CMA-deficient mouse primary hepatocytes. In addition, the aged liver accumulated nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1), a negative regulator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα). We found that Hsc70 binds to NCoR1 via the KFERQ motif. Lamp2a siRNA treatment accumulated NCoR1 and decreased the fatty acid oxidation rate. Pharmacological activation of CMA by AR7 treatment increased LAMP2A expression, leading to NCoR1 degradation. A liver-specific LAMP2A knockdown via adeno-associated viruses expressing short hairpin RNAs caused NCoR1 accumulation, inactivated PPARα, downregulated the expression of fatty acid oxidation-related genes and significantly increased liver triglyceride levels.ConclusionsOur results elucidated a novel PPARα regulatory mechanism involving CMA-mediated NCoR1 degradation during aging. These findings demonstrate that CMA dysregulation is crucial for the progression of aging-related fatty liver diseases.

Project description:IntroductionThe study aimed to explore the association of serum 25(OH)D3 and hepatic steatosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients and to determine whether the effect of vitamin D (VD) is mediated by activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) pathway.MethodsThe study contained a case-control study, in vivo and in vitro experiments. A case-control study was conducted to compare serum parameters between NAFLD patients and controls and to evaluate the association of 25(OH)D3 and NAFLD. In vivo study, male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control and model groups, fed a standard chow diet and a high-fat diet (HFD), respectively, for 7 weeks to generate an NAFLD model. Then, the rats were treated with VD and a PPARα antagonist (MK886) for 7 weeks. Tissue and serum were collected and assessed by biochemical assays, morphological analysis, histological analysis, and western blot analysis. In vitro, HepG2 cells were incubated with oleic acid (OA) to induce steatosis, which was evaluated by staining. HepG2 cells were pretreated with MK886 followed by calcitriol treatment, and differences in lipid metabolism-related proteins were detected by western blot.ResultsNAFLD patients were characterized by impaired liver function, dyslipidemia, and insulin resistance. Serum 25(OH)D3 was negatively associated with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in NAFLD. VD deficiency was a risk factor for patients with no advanced fibrosis. Adequate VD status (25(OH)D3 >20 ng/mL) had a protective effect in patients after adjustment for confounding variables. NAFLD rats showed hyperlipidemia with severe hepatic steatosis, systematic inflammation, and lower serum 25(OH)D3. VD treatment ameliorated hepatic steatosis both in NAFLD rats and OA-induced HepG2 cells. Further, MK886 inhibited the anti-steatosis effect of VD.ConclusionThe study revealed that an adequate VD level may act as a protective factor in NAFLD and that VD may alleviate hepatic steatosis via the PPARα signaling pathway.
