ATP7B Gene Therapy of Autologous Reprogrammed Hepatocytes Alleviates Copper Accumulation in a Murine Model of Wilson’s Disease

ABSTRACT: Purpose：Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare hereditary disorder due to ATP7B gene mutation, causing pathologic copper storage mainly in the liver and neurological systems. Hepatocyte transplantation showed therapeutic potential, however, this strategy is often hindered by a shortage of quality donor cells and by allogeneic immune rejection. Here we evaluate the function and efficacy of autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene-restored hepatocytes using a murine model of WD Mathods and Results: By reprogramming hepatocytes from ATP7B-/- mice with small molecules, sufficient liver progenitor cells (LPCs) are harvested. After lentivirus-mediated miniATP7B gene transfection and re-differentiation, functional LPC-ATP7B-Heps are developed. RNA-seq data show that compared with LPC-GFP-Heps with enrichment of genes mainly in pathways of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis, in LPC-ATP7B-Heps under high copper stress pathways for copper ion binding and cell proliferation are enriched. LPC-ATP7B-Heps transplantation into ATP7B-/- mice alleviates deposition of excess liver copper with its associated inflammation and fibrosis, comparable to those observed using normal primary hepatocytes at four months after transplantation. Conclusion: We establish the autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene restored LPC-ATP7B-Heps and further transplantation demonstrate alleviated copper accumulation in WD mice.

Specific changes of liver transcriptome in the early stages of copper accumulation in the mouse model of wilson disease

Project description:Wilson disease (WD) is a severe metabolic disorder caused by genetic inactivation of copper-transporting ATPase ATP7B. In WD, copper accumulates in several tissues, particularly in the liver, inducing marked time-dependent pathological changes. To identify initial events in the copper-dependent development of liver pathology we utilized the Atp7b-/- mice, an animal model for WD. Analysis of mRNA from livers of control and Atp7b-/- 6 weeks-old mice using oligonucleotide arrays revealed specific changes of the transcriptome at this stage of copper accumulation. Few messages (29 up-regulated and 46 down-regulated) change their abundance more than 2-fold pointing to the specific effect of copper on gene expression/mRNA stability. The gene ontology analysis revealed copper effects on distinct metabolic pathways. Keywords: comparative genomic hybridization

Epigenetic changes of the thioredoxin system in the tx-j mouse model and in patients with Wilson disease

Project description:Wilson disease (WD) is caused by mutations in the copper transporter ATP7B, leading to copper accumulation in the liver and brain. Excess copper inhibits S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase, leading to variable WD phenotypes from widespread alterations in DNA methylation and gene expression. Previously, we demonstrated that maternal choline supplementation in the Jackson toxic milk (tx-j) mouse model of WD corrected higher thioredoxin 1 transcript levels in fetal liver. Here, we investigated the effect of maternal choline supplementation on genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in tx-j fetal liver by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). Tx-j Atp7b genotype-dependent differences in DNA methylation were corrected by choline for genes including, but not exclusive to, oxidative stress pathways. To examine phenotypic effects of postnatal choline supplementation, tx-j mice were randomized to one of six treatment groups: with or without maternal and/or continued choline supplementation, and with or without copper chelation with penicillamine (PCA) treatment. Hepatic transcript levels of thioredoxin 1 and peroxiredoxin 1 were significantly higher in mice receiving maternal and continued choline with or without PCA treatment compared to untreated mice. A comparison of WGBS of human WD liver compared to tx-j mouse liver demonstrated a significant overlap of differentially-methylated genes associated with ATP7B deficiency. Further, eight genes in the thioredoxin pathway were differentially methylated in human WD liver samples. In summary, Atp7b deficiency and choline supplementation have a genome-wide impact, including on thioredoxin system-related genes, in tx-j mice. These findings could explain the variability of WD phenotype and suggest new complementary treatment options for WD.

Proteomics exploration of the Atp7b-/- mouse plasma proteome: translational relevance for the diagnosis of Wilson’s disease

Project description:Wilson’s disease (WD) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene. These mutations impact the expression and/or function of the copper-transporting ATP7B protein, leading to massive toxic accumulation of copper in the liver and brain. Due to its low incidence and highly variable clinical presentations, WD is challenging to diagnose. Here, we explored the plasma proteome of the Atp7b-/- mouse, a genetic and phenotypic model of WD, to provide new insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of WD and discover potential biomarkers for WD diagnosis. A mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics workflow combining unbiased discovery analysis followed by targeted quantification was developed. Analysis of two independent groups of samples (discovery and validation cohorts) highlighted seven plasma proteins for which abundance was significantly modified (more than 2-fold) between Atp7b-/- mice and wild-type littermates. To assess the clinical significance and specificity of these seven proteins as potential biomarkers for WD, we adapted our targeted proteomics assay to allow the quantification of human orthologues in plasma from WD patients (treated with copper chelators), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients (disease-control group), and healthy donors. The plasma proteome changes observed in the Atp7b-/- mouse were not confirmed in treated WD patients, with the exception of alpha-1 antichymotrypsin, levels of which were decreased in WD patients compared to healthy individuals. Plasma ceruloplasmin was investigated in both the Atp7b-/- mouse model and human patients, and was found to be significantly decreased in the human form of WD only.

DNA microarrays of Wilson's disease patient-specific induced pluripotent stem cells

Project description:Wilson’s disease (WD) is a relevant human genetic disease caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene, whose product is a liver enzyme responsible for copper export into bile and blood. Interestingly, the spectrum of ATP7B mutations is vast and can influence clinical presentation (a variable spectrum of hepatic and neural manifestations), though the reason for this is not well understood. Here we describe the successful generation of iPSCs from a Chinese patient with Wilson’s disease that bears the R778L Chinese hotspot mutation in the ATP7B gene. Global gene expression profiling with DNA microarrays showed that WD iPSCs cluster together with human ESCs (H9) compared to donor fibroblasts. WD patient fibroblasts were isolated and expanded from a dermal biopsy of a middle age Chinese Han male, WD iPSCs were generated by overexpression of human Oct4/Sox2/Klf4/c-Myc in WD fibroblasts and expanded on Matrigel with mTESR1 culture medium. For DNA microarray analysis, WD fibroblasts (passage 5), 3 cell lines of WD iPSCs growing on Matrigel (passage 8) and human ES H9 growing on Matrigel (passage 40) were treated with Trizol, followed by RNA extraction and hybridization.

Gene expression data of hepatocytes derived from human fibroblasts, human iPSCs, and human adult hepatocytes

Project description:Generation of human fibroblast-derived hepatocytes capable of extensive proliferation, as evidenced by significant liver repopulation of mice. Unlike current protocols for deriving hepatocytes from human fibroblasts, ours did not generate iPSCs, but shortcut reprogramming to pluripotency to generate an induced multipotent progenitor cell (iMPC) stage from which endoderm progenitor cells (iMPC-EPCs) and subsequently hepatocytes (iMPC-Heps) could be efficiently differentiated. After transplantation into an immune-deficient mouse model of human liver failure, iMPC-Heps were able to engraft and proliferate, and acquired levels of hepatocyte function similar to adult hepatocytes. Microarray analysis has been used to show: 1. post-transplant maturation in vivo of iMPC-Heps compared to aHeps, 2. differences between iMPC-Heps and freshly isolated aHeps in vitro, 3. similar profile of freshly isolated aHeps to aHeps and iMPC-Heps in vivo, and 4. similarities of expression levels of most, but not all, genes between iMPC-Heps and iPSC-Heps in vitro. We isolated repopulating nodules of iMPC-Heps and aHeps by laser-capture microscopy (LCM) around 9 months after transplantation and analyzed their gene expression on the microarray, together with RNA from in vitro samples.
