Data on expression of lipoxygenases-5 and -12 in the normal and acetaminophen-damaged liver.

ABSTRACT: Here we present additional data on the expression of lipoxygenases -5 and -12 in the normal and acetaminophen-damaged liver, which are associated with our manuscript recently published in Chemico-Biological Interactions on lipid metabolism and eicosanoid signaling pathways involved in acetaminophen-induced liver damage in a mouse model (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cbi.2015.10.019 [1]). It has been demonstrated that the expression of lipoxygenase-5 and leukotriene formation are increased in the livers of rats with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced cirrhosis (http://dx.doi.org/10.1053/gast.2000.17831 [2]). In addition, the lipoxygenase-12 is known to be expressed in the resident macrophage population of the liver (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S0014-5793(99)00396-8 [3]). Mice were injected with acetaminophen, and at 48 h their livers were processed for immunohistochemistry with anti-mouse lipoxygenase-5 and -12 antibodies. At the same time point, the RNA was also extracted from the liver to assess the expression of lipoxygenase-5 and -12 genes via qPCR analysis. Our results show that lipoxygenase-5 expression, but not that of lipoxygenase-12, changes significantly in the acetominophen-damaged liver.

Project description:Background & aimsAcetaminophen (APAP)-induced acute liver injury (ALI) is a global health issue characterised by an incomplete understanding of its pathogenesis and unsatisfactory therapies. NEK7 plays critical roles in both cell cycle regulation and inflammation. In the present study, we investigated the role and mechanism of NEK7 in APAP-induced ALI.MethodsIn mice with NEK7 overexpression (hydrodynamic tail vein injection of NEK7 plasmids), hepatocyte-specific NEK7 knockout (cKO), and inducible NEK7 knockout (iKO), an overdose of APAP was administered to induce ALI. Liver injury was determined by an analysis of serum liver enzymes, pathological changes, inflammatory cytokines, and metabonomic profiles. In vitro, hepatocyte damage was evaluated by an analysis of cell viability, the reactive oxygen species levels, and mitochondrial function in different cell lines. Hepatocyte proliferation and the cell cycle status were determined by Ki-67 staining, EdU staining, and the cyclin levels.ResultsNEK7 was markedly downregulated in APAP-induced injured liver and damaged hepatocytes. NEK7 overexpression in the liver significantly alleviated APAP-induced liver injury, as shown by the restored liver function, reduced pathological injury, and decreased inflammation and oxidative stress, which was confirmed in a hepatocyte cell line. Moreover, both NEK7 cKO and iKO mice exhibited exacerbation of APAP-induced ALI. Finally, we determined that cyclin B1-mediated cell cycle progression could mediate the protective effect of NEK7 against APAP-induced ALI.ConclusionsReduced NEK7 contributes to APAP-induced ALI, possibly by dysregulating cyclins and disturbing cell cycle progression.Lay summaryAcetaminophen-induced acute liver injury is one of the major global health issues, owing to its high incidence, potential severity, and limited therapeutic options. Our current understanding of its pathogenesis is incomplete. Herein, we have shown that reduced NEK7 (a protein with a key role in the cell cycle) exacerbates acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury. Hence, NEK7 could be a possible therapeutic target for the prevention or treatment of this condition.
