Project description:Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) results from accumulation of excessive liver lipids leading to hepatocellular injury, inflammation, and fibrosis that greatly increase the risk for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite the well-characterized clinical and histological pathology for NASH-driven HCC in humans, its etiology remains unclear and there is a deficiency in pre-clinical models that recapitulate the progression of the human disease. Therefore, we developed a new mouse model amenable to genetic manipulations and gene targeting that mimics the gradual NASH to HCC progression observed in humans. C57BL/6NJ mice were fed a Western high fat diet and sugar water (HFD/SW) and monitored for effects on metabolism, liver histology, tumor development, and liver transcriptome for up to 54 weeks. Chronic HFD/SW feeding led to significantly increased weight gain, serum and liver lipid levels, liver injury, and glucose intolerance. Hepatic pathology progressed and mice developed hepatocellular ballooning, inflammation, and worse fibrosis was apparent at 16 weeks, greatly increased through 32 weeks, and remained elevated at 54 weeks. Importantly, hepatocellular cancer spontaneously developed in 75% of mice on HFD/SW, half of which were HCC, whereas none of the mice on chow diet developed HCC. Chronic HFD/SW induced molecular markers of de novo lipogenesis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, inflammation, and accumulation of p62, all of which also participate in the human pathology. Moreover, transcriptome analysis revealed activation of HCC-related genes and signatures associated with poor prognosis of human HCC. Overall, we have identified a new preclinical model that recapitulates known hallmarks of NASH-driven HCC that can be utilized for future molecular mechanistic studies of this disease.

Project description:The scope of this project is to study, using state-of-the-art systems biology approaches integrating the changes in metabolomics, lipidomics and transcriptomics, changes in hepatocytes' metabolism occurring in liver regeneration. We focused on altered metabolic pathways including lipogenesis, fatty acid desaturation, and generation of phosphatidylcholine (PC) occurring in the liver following partial hepatectomy (PH) or carbon-tetrachloride (CCl4) injection.

Project description:Seven-week old male C57BL/6J mice received a single i.p. injection of DEN (100 mg/kg) and were subsequently fed with CDA-HFD after 3 weeks. After 6 weeks of diet, the mice were randomized in 2 groups, receiving weekly i.p. injections of 500 µg of either CLDN1 specific mAb or vehicle control for 16 weeks. RNA was extracted from non-tumorous liver tissue of 6 DEN-CDA-HFD mice treated with CLDN1 mAb, 6 DEN-CDA-HFD mice treated with vehicle Control as well as 5 C57BL/6J Control mice fed by regular diet. Libraries were sequenced on the Illumina HiSeq 4000 as Single-Read 50 base reads.

Project description:In our current study, we observed that in hepatic carcinogen diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced liver tumor mouse model, diphthamide-deficient mouse developed less liver tumor incidence than control mouse. To explore the detailed mechanism, RNA-seq experiment was conducted to compare gene transcriptome profiles of control and diphthamide-deficient livers during HCC progression.

Project description:To investigate the transcriptional profiles of adipocytes and stromal vascular cells from mouse visceral adipose tissue(vWAT) in lean (Low fat diet, LFD fed), obese (high fat diet, HFD fed) and formerly obese (diet switch (SW) from 9 weeks HFD, to 3 weeks LFD) to induce weight loss.

Project description:Objective Recent evidence indicates that the adult hematopoietic system is susceptible to diet-induced lineage skewing. It is not known whether the developing hematopoietic system is subject to metabolic programming via in utero high fat diet (HFD) exposure, an established mechanism of adult disease in several organ systems. We previously reported substantial losses in offspring liver size with prenatal HFD. As the liver is the main hematopoietic organ in the fetus, we asked whether the developmental expansion of the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) pool is compromised by prenatal HFD and/or maternal obesity. Methods We used quantitative assays, progenitor colony formation, flow cytometry, transplantation, and gene expression assays with a series of dietary manipulations to test the effects of gestational high fat diet and maternal obesity on the day 14.5 fetal liver hematopoietic system. Results Maternal obesity, particularly when paired with gestational HFD, restricts physiological expansion of fetal HSPCs while promoting the opposing cell fate of differentiation. Importantly, these effects are only partially ameliorated by gestational dietary adjustments for obese dams. Competitive transplantation reveals compromised repopulation and myeloid-biased differentiation of HFD-programmed HSPCs to be a niche-dependent defect, apparent in HFD-conditioned male recipients. Fetal HSPC deficiencies coincide with perturbations in genes regulating metabolism, immune and inflammatory processes, and stress response, along with downregulation of genes critical for hematopoietic stem cell self-renewal and activation of pathways regulating cell migration. Conclusions Our data reveal a previously unrecognized susceptibility to nutritional and metabolic developmental programming in the fetal HSPC compartment, which is a partially reversible and microenvironment-dependent defect perturbing stem and progenitor cell expansion and hematopoietic lineage commitment. Examination of differentially expressed genes between gestational day 15 (+/- 0.5 days) C57BL/6 mouse fetal livers from diet-induced (60% fat diet) obese or control female mice.

Project description:Background Breakthroughs in HIV treatment, especially antiretroviral therapy (ART), have massively reduced mortality. However, ART-treated individuals display elevated rates of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, collectively known as metabolic syndrome. These co-morbidities represent a considerable threat to long-term survival and quality of life. Previous studies have shown that high-fat feeding induces persistent low-grade systemic and adipose tissue inflammation contributing to insulin resistance and metabolic dysregulation via adipose-infiltrating macrophages. Methods and Results Studies herein test the hypothesis that ART potentiates the inflammatory effects of a high-fat diet (HFD). C57Bl/6J mice on a HFD or standard chow containing ART or vehicle, were subjected to functional metabolic testing, RNA-sequencing of epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT), and array-based kinomic analysis of eWAT-infiltrating macrophages. ART-treated mice on a HFD displayed fat mass accumulation, impaired glucose tolerance, and potentiated insulin resistance. Gene set enrichment and kinomic array analyses revealed a pro-inflammatory transcriptional signature depicting granulocyte migration and activation. Conclusions The current study reveals a HFD-ART interaction that increases inflammatory transcriptional pathways in eWAT consistent with macrophage infiltration, resulting in impaired glucose metabolism, energy balance, and metabolic dysfunction.

Project description:Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are suggested to modulate immune function, but the effects of dietary fatty acids composition on gene expression patterns in immune organs have not been fully characterized. In the current study we investigated how dietary fatty acids composition affects the total transcriptome profile, and especially, immune related genes, in bone marrow cells (BMC) and spleen (SPL). Four tissues with metabolic function, skeletal muscle (SKM), white adipose tissue (WAT), brown adipose tissue (BAT), and liver (LIV), were investigated as a comparison. Following 8 weeks on low fat diet (LFD), high fat diet (HFD) rich in saturated fatty acids (HFD-S), or HFD rich in PUFA (HFD-P), tissue transcriptomics were analyzed by microarray and metabolic health assessed by fasting blood glucose level, HOMA-IR index, oral glucose tolerance test as well as quantification of crown-like structures in WAT. Interestingly, SKM and BMC were relatively inert to the diets, whereas the two adipose tissues (WAT and BAT) were mainly affected by HFD per se (both HFD-S and HFD-P). In particular, WAT gene expression was driven closer to that of the immune organs SPL and BMC by HFDs. Remarkably, the spleen, showed a major response to HFD-P, but not to HFD-S, whereas the LIV exhibited different responses to both of the HFDs. Further, HFD-P corrected the metabolic phenotype induced by HFD-S. Hence, the quantity and composition of dietary fatty acids affected the transcriptome in a distinct manner. Especially, PUFA prompted a specific regulation of immune related genes in the spleen. Thus, PUFA can regulate immune function by influencing gene expression.
