Transcriptional regulation of liver lipotoxicity in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis [ATAC-seq]

ABSTRACT: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is continuum of disorders among which non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is particularly associated with a negative prognosis. Hepatocyte lipotoxicity is one of the main pathogenic factors of liver fibrosis and NASH. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating this process are poorly understood. Here, we integrated transcriptomic and chromatin accessibility analyses from human liver and mouse hepatocytes to identify lipotoxicity-sensitive transcription factors. We found that several transcription factors that were activated in liver from NASH patients and by mouse hepatocyte lipotoxicity. Notably, the gene expression linked to lipotoxicity closely correlated with transcriptional patters in fibrosis progression in NASH patients. Collectively, our findings uncovered novel molecular insights into lipotoxicity-induced NASH.

Discovery of lipotoxicity-sensitive transcription factors in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is continuum of disorders among which non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is particularly associated with a negative prognosis. Hepatocyte lipotoxicity is one of the main pathogenic factors of liver fibrosis and NASH. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating this process are poorly understood. Here, we integrated transcriptomic and chromatin accessibility analyses from human liver and mouse hepatocytes to identify lipotoxicity-sensitive transcription factors. We found that the transcription factors MAFK and TCF4 were activated in liver from NASH patients and by mouse hepatocyte lipotoxicity. Genetic deletion of these transcription factors protected hepatocytes against saturated fatty acid oversupply. Notably, MAFK- and TCF4-regulated gene expression linked to lipotoxicity closely correlated with transcriptional patters in fibrosis progression in NASH patients. Collectively, our findings uncovered novel molecular insights into lipotoxicityinduced NASH, revealing the relevance and therapeutic potential of MAFK and TCF4 in human disease.

Fibrosis-activated transcriptional networks govern hepatocyte reprogramming and intra-hepatic communication in metabolic associated liver fibrosis

Project description:Liver fibrosis is a strong predictor of long-term mortality in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; yet the mechanisms underlying the progression from the comparatively benign fatty liver state to advanced non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and liver fibrosis are incompletely under-stood. Using a cell type-resolved genomics approach, we show that comprehensive alterations in hepatocyte genomic and transcriptional settings during NASH progression, led to a partial loss of hepatocyte identity. The hepatocyte reprogramming was under tight cooperative control of a net-work of NASH-activated transcription factors (TFs), as exemplified by Elf3 and Glis2. Indeed, Elf3 and Glis2 controlled hepatocyte identity and fibrosis-dependent hepatokine genes targeting disease-associated hepatic stellate cell (HSC) gene programs. Thus, interconnected TF networks not only promoted hepatocyte dysfunction, but also directed the intra-hepatic crosstalk with HSCs necessary for NASH and fibrosis progression implying molecular “hub-centered” targeting strategies to be superior to existing mono-target approaches as currently used in NASH therapy.

Post-transplant (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) NASH compared with transplanted normal controls

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) encompasses a spectrum of disease that ranges from simple steatosis, to inflammatory form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and up to hepatocellular carcinoma. While NASH usually takes decades to develop at a rate of one stage per seven years, in the case of post-trasplant NASH (pt-NASH) develops fibrosis much more rapidly, with almost 50% of liver transplant recipients presenting stage 3 fibrosis by 5 years post-transplant. Archived fresh-frozen transplanted liver biopsy samples from four liver biopsy samples with evidence of NASH (2 recurrent and 2 de novo), two with simple steatosis (both de novo), and five with normal histology as controls had their transcriptome sequenced in two batches for deeper coverage.

Administration of glutaredoxin-1 attenuates liver fibrosis caused by aging and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Project description:Glutaredoxin-1 (Glrx) controls redox signaling and has an anti-apoptotic function. We evaluated the role of Glrx on hepatic cell damage and fibrosis induced by a high-fat diet. We fed mice a high-fat high-fructose diet to induce non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and injected AAV-Glrx to express hepatocyte-specific Glrx in diet-induced NASH mice. AAV-Glrx suppressed fibrosis and improved liver function in the NASH liver. We used microarrays to profile gene expression in the NASH liver and find pathways that AAV-Glrx mediated to attenuate fibrosis and NASH progression.

Hepatocytes demarcated by EphB2 contribute to the progression of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Project description:Current therapeutic strategies for treating non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) have failed to alleviate liver fibrosis, which is a devastating feature leading to hepatic dysfunction. Here, we integrated single-nucleus transcriptomics and epigenomics to characterize all major liver cell types during NASH development in mice and humans. The bifurcation of hepatocyte trajectory with NASH progression was conserved between mouse and human. At the non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) stage, hepatocytes exhibited metabolic adaptation, whereas at the NASH stage, a subset of hepatocytes was enriched for the signatures of cell adhesion and migration, which was mainly demarcated by receptor tyrosine kinase EphB2. EphB2, acting as a downstream effector of Notch signaling in hepatocytes, was sufficient to induce cell-autonomously inflammation. Knockdown of Ephb2 in hepatocytes ameliorated inflammation and fibrosis in NASH. Thus, EphB2 expressing hepatocytes contribute to NASH progression and may serve as a potential therapeutic target.

Hepatic gene expression and functional changes associated with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Project description:Non‑alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a pathological condition of the liver in which hepatocyte steatosis, invasion of inflammatory cells and hepatic injury occur without alcohol abuse. Despite the known risk of liver cancer and liver fibrosis that may progress to liver cirrhosis that exists with NASH, an understanding of related gene expression and associated functional changes remains insufficient. The present study used a mouse model of NASH induced by a high‑fat diet to examine gene expression in the liver and to search for transcripts that could predict early liver fibrosis in the future. Mice fed a high‑fat diet for 2 weeks showed typical NASH liver histology by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and increased fibrosis was confirmed by Sirius red staining after 6 weeks. Functional changes associated with liver damage, liver inflammation, liver steatosis and liver fibrosis were predicted by toxicological ontology analysis using Ingenuity Pathways Analysis. Downregulated microRNA (miR)‑21 and upregulated collagen type III α1 mRNA in the liver and upregulated exosomal miR‑21 in serum of mice fed a high‑fat diet for 1 and/or 2 weeks were confirmed by reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR, suggesting that these changes occur prior to histological confirmation of fibrosis. Therefore, it may be possible to predict future liver fibrosis by analyzing fibrosis‑related genes that shift prior to pathological findings.

Murine Western diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis liver proteome

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the number one cause of chronic liver disease worldwide, with 25% of these patients developing nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NASH significantly increases the risk of cirrhosis and decompensated liver failure. Past studies in rodent models have shown the knockout of glycine-N-methyltransferase (GNMT) results in rapid pro-gression of steatosis, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the attenuation of GNMT in subjects with NASH and the molecular basis for its impact on the disease process are still unclear. To address this knowledge gap, we show the reduction of GNMT protein levels in the liver of NASH subjects compared to healthy controls. To gain insight into the impact of decreased GNMT in the disease process, we performed global label-free proteome studies on the livers from a murine Western diet-based model of NASH. Histological and molecular characterization of the animal model demonstrate high resemblance to the human disease.

Metabolomics and Lipidomics Screening Reveal Reprogrammed Signaling Pathways toward Cancer Development in Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is now considered the most common form of chronic liver disease. It is a complex metabolic disease that silently progresses into non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). In fact, NASH is the tipping point for pericellular fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Despite being a complex metabolic disease, identification of the metabolic readout that functions in metabolic pathway perpetuation for HCC progression from NASH is still incompletely understood. With the aid of LC MS/MS this study unveiled the metabolic fingerprint of NASH and HCC-NASH patients and it illustrates a detailed map for the most predominant reprogrammed metabolic pathways that target HCC development from NASH. https://doi.org/10.3390/ijms24010210
