Cholesterol and bile acid synthesis in Hep G2 cells. Metabolic effects of 26- and 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol.

ABSTRACT: 1. Using a human hepatoma (Hep G2) cell line that continually synthesizes 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid, lithocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid we have determined the metabolism and biological effects of 26-hydroxycholesterol and 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol. 2. Addition of 26-hydroxycholesterol to the medium (6 microM) downregulated cholesterol and chenodeoxycholic acid synthesis. 3. The predominant metabolite of 26-hydroxycholesterol was 3 beta-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid. 4. Cholesterol synthesis was not affected by the addition of 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol (6 and 12 microM). The predominant metabolite of 7 alpha-hydroxycholesterol was chenodeoxycholic acid. 5. In Hep G2 cells 7 alpha-hydroxylation of 26-hydroxycholesterol is not well expressed.

Thyroid hormone-responsive miR-378 modulates cholesterol homeostasis by regulating hepatic bile acid synthesis

Project description:An improved mechanistic understanding of the thyroid hormone (TH) action on bile acid (BA) synthetic pathway, the major route for cholesterol elimination, will facilitate the identification of novel therapeutic targets for hypercholesterolemia. Here, we show that hepatic miR-378 is positively regulated by TH. Transient overexpression of miR-378 in the liver of mice reduces the serum cholesterol levels, which is accompanied with an upregulation of key enzymes involved in the intrahepatic conversion of cholesterol to BAs. Importantly, transgenic mice with liver-specific and moderate overexpression of miR-378 also display a decrease in serum cholesterol levels accompanied with an enhanced BA synthesis and are resistant to diet-induced hypercholesterolemia. In contrast, mice lacking miR-378 exhibit an elevation of serum cholesterol levels accompanied with an impaired BA synthesis. Mechanistic studies reveal that hepatic miR-378 regulates BA synthesis and cholesterol homeostasis through its direct target gene MAFG, which is a transcriptional repressor of BA synthetic genes. We also show that miR-378 serves as an essential component in either incoherent or coherent feed-forward loop to confer robust and precise controls on BA synthesis in response to TH signalling. Together, we identify a previously undescribed miR-378-mediated mechanism underlying the cholesterol-lowering effect of TH. Our findings not only add a new dimension to our understanding the regulation of BA synthesis by TH, but also provide new therapeutic regimens to manage serum cholesterol levels

Mig-6 plays a critical role in the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis and bile acid synthesis.

Project description:The disruption of cholesterol homeostasis leads to an increase in cholesterol levels which results in the development of cardiovascular disease. Mitogen Inducible Gene 6 (Mig-6) is an immediate early response gene that can be induced by various mitogens, stresses, and hormones. To identify the metabolic role of Mig-6 in the liver, we conditionally ablated Mig-6 in the liver using the Albumin-Cre mouse model (Albcre/+Mig-6f/f; Mig-6d/d). Mig-6d/d mice exhibit hepatomegaly and fatty liver. Serum levels of total, LDL, and HDL cholesterol and hepatic lipid were significantly increased in the Mig-6d/d mice. The daily excretion of fecal bile acids was significantly decreased in the Mig-6d/d mice. DNA microarray analysis of mRNA isolated from the livers of these mice showed alterations in genes that regulate lipid metabolism, bile acid, and cholesterol synthesis, while the expression of genes that regulate biliary excretion of bile acid and triglyceride synthesis showed no difference in the Mig-6d/d mice compared to Mig-6f/f controls. These results indicate that Mig-6 plays an important role in cholesterol homeostasis and bile acid synthesis. Mice with liver specific conditional ablation of Mig-6 develop hepatomegaly and increased intrahepatic lipid and provide a novel model system to investigate the genetic and molecular events involved in the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis and bile acid synthesis. Defining the molecular mechanisms by which Mig-6 regulates cholesterol homeostasis will provide new insights into the development of more effective ways for the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease.
