Hepatic PLIN5 Deficiency Impairs Lipogenesis through Mitochondrial Dysfunction.

ABSTRACT: Regulation of lipid droplets (LDs) metabolism is the core of controlling intracellular fatty acids (FAs) fluxes, and perilipin 5 (PLIN5) plays a key role in this process. Our previous studies have found that hepatic PLIN5 deficiency reduces LDs accumulation, but the trafficking of FAs produced from this pathway and the interaction between mitochondria and LDs in this process are largely unknown. Here, we found that the deficiency of PLIN5 decreases LDs accumulation by increasing FAs efflux. In addition, the decreased lipogenesis of PLIN5-deficient hepatocytes is accompanied by mitochondrial dysfunction, suggesting that PLIN5 plays an important role in mediating the interaction between LDs and mitochondria. Importantly, PLIN5 ablation negates oxidative capacity differences of peri-droplet and cytosolic mitochondria. In summary, these data indicate that PLIN5 plays a vital role in maintaining mitochondrial-mediated lipogenesis, which provides an important new perspective on the regulation of liver lipid storage and the relationship between PLIN5 and mitochondria.

Project description:The loss of mitochondrial function impairs intracellular energy production and potentially results in chronic liver disease. Increasing evidence suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatocytes contributes to the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), thereby resulting in hepatic fibrogenesis. High-temperature requirement protein A2 (HtrA2/Omi), a mitochondrial serine protease with various functions, is responsible for quality control in mitochondrial homeostasis. However, little information is available regarding its role in mitochondrial damage during the development of liver fibrosis. This study examined whether HtrA2/Omi regulates mitochondrial homeostasis in hepatocyte during the development of hepatic fibrogenesis. In this study, we demonstrated that HtrA2/Omi expression considerably decreased in liver tissues from the CCl4-induced liver fibrotic mice model and from patients with liver cirrhosis. Knockdown of HtrA2/Omi in hepatocytes induced the accumulation of damaged mitochondria and provoked mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) stress. We further show that the damaged mtDNA isolated from HtrA2/Omi-deficient hepatocytes as a form of damage-associated molecular patterns can induce HSCs activation. Moreover, we found that motor neuron degeneration 2-mutant mice harboring the missense mutation Ser276Cys in the protease domain of HtrA2/Omi displayed altered mitochondrial morphology and function, which increased oxidative stress and promoted liver fibrosis. Conversely, the overexpression of HtrA2/Omi via hydrodynamics-based gene transfer led to the antifibrotic effects in CCl4-induced liver fibrosis mice model through decreasing collagen accumulation and enhancing anti-oxidative activity by modulating mitochondrial homeostasis in the liver. These results suggest that suppressing HtrA2/Omi expression promotes hepatic fibrogenesis via modulating mtROS generation, and these novel mechanistic insights involving the regulation of mitochondrial homeostasis by HtrA2/Omi may be of importance for developing new therapeutic strategies for hepatic fibrosis.
