Project description:Hepatic ketogenesis is crucial for energy homeostasis in a fast state, whereas defective ketogenesis is associated with various diseases. We explored the role of PAK4, an oncoprotein, in ketogenesis. To investigate the molecular basis, we carried out RNA-sequencing analysis using littermate WT and hepatocyte-specific Pak4 KO mice in fasted conditions.

Project description:Autophagy is an evolutionally conserved catabolic process that recycles nutrients upon starvation and maintains cellular energy homeostasis1-3. Its acute regulation by nutrient sensing signaling pathways is well described, but its longer-term transcriptional regulation is not. The nuclear receptors PPARα and FXR are activated in the fasted or fed liver, respectively4,5. Here we show that both regulate hepatic autophagy. Pharmacologic activation of PPARα reverses the normal suppression of autophagy in the fed state, inducing autophagic lipid degradation, or lipophagy. This response is lost in PPARα knockout (PPARα-/-) mice, which are partially defective in the induction of autophagy by fasting. Pharmacologic activation of the bile acid receptor FXR strongly suppresses the induction of autophagy in the fasting state, and this response is absent in FXR knockout (FXR-/-) mice, which show a partial defect in suppression of hepatic autophagy in the fed state. PPARα and FXR compete for binding to shared sites in autophagic gene promoters, with opposite transcriptional outputs. These results reveal complementary, interlocking mechanisms for regulation of autophagy by nutrient status. Mouse liver PPARα cistromes in fed 8-week-old male WT or PPARα KO mice treated with or without its synthetic agonist ligand GW7647twice a day were generated by deep sequencing in quadruplicate using illumina

Project description:The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) integrates cellular nutrient signaling and hormonal cues to control metabolism. We have previously shown that constitutive nutrient signaling to mTORC1 by means of genetic activation of RagA (RagAGTP) in mice resulted in a fatal energetic crisis at birth. Herein, we have rescued neonatal lethality in RagAGTP mice and found morphometric and metabolic alterations that span glucose, lipid, ketone, bile acid and amino acid homeostasis in adults, and a median lifespan of nine months. Proteomic and metabolomic analyses of livers from RagAGTP mice revealed a failed metabolic adaptation to fasting due to a global impairment in PPARα transcriptional program. These metabolic defects were partially recapitulated by restricting activation of RagA to hepatocytes, and reverted by pharmacological inhibition of mTORC1. Constitutive hepatic nutrient signaling did not cause hepatocellular damage and carcinomas, unlike genetic activation of growth factor signaling upstream of mTORC1. In summary, RagA signaling dictates dynamic responses to feeding-fasting cycles to tune metabolism so as to match the nutritional state.

Project description:Mice harboring a liver-specific carnitine palmityltransferase 2 (Cpt2) knockout exhibit drastic lipid accumulation following a 24hr fast. Crossing Cpt2L-/- mice with Pparα-/- mice provides a model to drive ligand-activated Pparα signaling in liver. We use this to investigate unique patterns of Pparα target gene transcription and demonstrate the requirement for ligand-activated Pparα in maintaining transcriptionally permissive genomic architecture in liver, including regulation of promoters and enhancer elements during periods of nutrient deprivation.

Project description:Ketone bodies, intermediates in energy metabolism and signaling, have attracted significant attention due to their role in health and disease. We performed around the clock study on ketone bodies and ketogenesis with mice on different diets. We found that caloric restriction, a dietary intervention that improves metabolism and longevity, induced high amplitude circadian rhythms in blood βOHB. The blood βOHB rhythms resulted from rhythmic ketogenesis in the liver controlled by the interaction between the circadian clock and PPAR transcriptional networks. This interaction results in transcriptional reprogramming of in beta-oxidation and ketogenesis enzymes. The reprogramming is impaired in circadian clock mutant mice. The circadian clock gated ketogenesis contributes to the diet impact on health and longevity.

Project description:The liver is critical for maintaining systemic energy balance during starvation. To understand the role of hepatic fatty acid β-oxidation on this process, we generated mice with a liver-specific knockout of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (Cpt2L-/-), an obligate step in mitochondrial long-chain fatty acid β-oxidation. Surprisingly, Cpt2L-/- mice survived the perinatal period and a 24hr fast with sufficient blood glucose. The loss of hepatic fatty acid oxidation resulted in a significant loss in circulating ketones that remained unaltered by fasting. Fasting induced serum dyslipidemia, hepatic steatosis and adaptations in hepatic and systemic oxidative gene expression in Cpt2L-/- mice to maintain systemic energy homeostasis. Alternatively, feeding a ketogenic diet resulted in severe hepatomegaly, liver damage and death within one week with a complete absence of adipose triglyceride stores. These data show that hepatic fatty acid oxidation is not required for survival during acute food deprivation but essential for constraining adipocyte lipolysis and regulating systemic catabolism when glucose is limiting. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from dissected mouse liver from mice fasted for 24 hours with and without the deletion of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (i.e. hepatocytes unable to beta-oxidize long chain fatty acids in mitochondria). WildType and KnockOut mice were fasted for 24 hours. Three biologic replicates were compared per class, thus six mice.

Project description:Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) is a key regulator of hepatic fat oxidation that serves as an energy source during starvation. Vanin-1 has been described as a putative PPARα target gene in liver, but its function in hepatic lipid metabolism is unknown. We investigated the regulation of vanin-1, and total vanin activity, by PPARα in mice and humans. Furthermore, the function of vanin-1 in the development of hepatic steatosis in response to starvation was examined in Vnn1 deficient mice, and in rats treated with an inhibitor of vanin activity. Liver microarray analyses reveals that Vnn1 is the most prominently regulated gene after modulation of PPARα activity. In addition, activation of mouse PPARα regulates hepatic- and plasma vanin activity. In humans, consistent with regulation by PPARα, plasma vanin activity increases in all subjects after prolonged fasting, as well as after treatment with the PPARα agonist fenofibrate. In mice, absence of vanin-1 exacerbates the fasting-induced increase in hepatic triglyceride levels. Similarly, inhibition of vanin activity in rats induces accumulation of hepatic triglycerides upon fasting. Microarray analysis reveal that the absence of vanin-1 associates with gene sets involved in liver steatosis, and reduces pathways involved in oxidative stress and inflammation. We show that hepatic vanin-1 is under extremely sensitive regulation by PPARα and that plasma vanin activity could serve as a readout of changes in PPARα activity in human subjects. In addition, our data propose a role for vanin-1 in regulation of hepatic TG levels during fasting.
