Transcriptomic profiling of induced steatosis in human precision-cut liver slices

ABSTRACT: Progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a major cause of end-stage liver diseases. There is a high need for predictive human ex vivo models to translate preclinical findings for potential new NAFLD drugs to human disease. About a decade ago, precision cut liver slices (PCLSs) have been established as an ex vivo assay for humans and other organisms. The molecular and functional baseline characteristics of PCLSs have been extensively described previously. In the present study, we provide a comprehensive RNA-Seq based molecular characterization of a new assay for NAFLD that induces steatosis in human and mouse PCLSs culture by incremental supplementation of sugars (glucose and fructose), insulin, and fatty acids (palmitate, oleate). Independent of the triglyceride levels of the human donor liver organs at baseline, the nutrient over-supplementation leads to an increase of triglyceride synthesis and cytokine release to the culture supernatant and thus recapitulates hallmark features of steatosis and inflammation in NAFLD. The mirrored design of human vs. mouse liver slices cultured at the exact same conditions allows a comprehensive assessment of donor variability and the contribution of time vs. nutrient factors to the overall observed molecular pattern and the investigation of conserved and species-specific transcriptional pathways that are involved in steatosis and inflammation of the liver.

Transcriptomic study of human liver biopsies in obese patients with low and high liver fat

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major risk factor leading to chronic liver disease and type 2 diabetes. In this study liver metabolic activity and functionality in NAFLD was charted by integrating global transcriptomic data within a genome-scale model of human metabolism. Gene expression was measured in the human liver of eight subjects with extreme steatosis diagnosed with NAFLD (liver fat % range 20-80%), and eight healthy, but obese subjects with low liver fat content (liver fat % range 0-10%). This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

NASH

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by a series of pathological changes that can progress from simple fatty liver disease to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The objective of this study is to describe changes in global gene expression associated with the progression of NAFLD. This study is focused on the expression levels of genes responsible for the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) of drugs. Differential gene expression between three clinically defined pathological groups; normal, steatosis and NASH was analyzed. The samples were diagnosed as normal, steatotic, NASH with fatty liver (NASH fatty) and NASH without fatty liver (NASH NF). Genome-wide mRNA levels in samples of human liver tissue were assayed with Affymetrix GeneChipM-. Human 1.0ST arrays

Differential analysis of gene expression in liver tissues of patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and controls.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) comprises a collection of chronic liver disorders distinguished by the excessive accumulation of lipids within hepatocytes and the presence of steatosis. It covers a range of liver conditions that vary from simple steatosis (non-alcoholic fatty liver, NAFL) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). In this study, hepatic gene expression was compared among 6 patients with NAFL, 4 with NASH, and 6 healthy controls. Subsequently, differential genes were identified through comparative analysis of sequencing results, and target genes potentially related to the pathogenesis of NAFLD were further investigated. Numerous potential target genes and pathways have been identified in NAFLD, providing potential targets for therapeutic interventions.

Classifying distinct grades of human non-alcoholic fatty liver disease employing a systems biology approach

Project description:With an estimated prevalence of about 30% in western countries non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major public health issue [PMID: 18956290]. NAFLD is associated with the metabolic syndrome of insulin resistance, obesity, glucose intolerance. Although many studies are pointing to an induction of insulin resistance by NAFLD causality between both phenotypes is not fully clarified. Furthermore, mechanisms leading to strongly differing progression of NAFLD have to be elucidated which range from mild steatosis up to severe steatohepatitis. Steatohepatitis might even result in liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Additional complexity is introduced into the understanding of the disease by recent studies providing evidence for a direct development of carcinoma from steatosis without the formerly assumed intermediary phase of cirrhosis. Here, we investigate liver samples from patients with varying severities of steatosis in an integrative approach employing transcriptomics, serum biomarker profling, metabolomics data and systems biology models. Total RNA obtained from hepatocytes derived from nine obese patients with distinct grades of steatosis. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

High intake of dietary sucrose induces sexually dimorphic metabolic adaptations in liver and adipose tissue

Project description:This data submission reports the effects of 12 weeks supplementaion of 10%w/v sucrose supplied in drinking water on the inguinal white adipose tissue mRNA profiles of male and female mice relative to control groups (littermates that received plain water instead). RNAseq was performed by Novogene and investigators performed all analyses downstream of readcount acquisition. Manuscript abstract: Almost all effective treatments for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) involve reduction of adiposity, which suggests the metabolic axis between liver and adipose tissue is essential to NAFLD development. Since excessive dietary sugar intake may be an initiating factor for NAFLD, we have characterized the metabolic effects of liquid sucrose intake at concentrations relevant to typical human consumption in mice. We report that sucrose intake induces sexually dimorphic effects in liver, adipose tissue, and the microbiome; differences concordant with steatosis severity. We show that when steatosis is decoupled from impairments in insulin responsiveness, sex is a moderating factor that influences sucrose-driven lipid storage and the contribution of de novo fatty acid synthesis to the overall hepatic triglyceride pool. Our findings provide physiologic insight into how sex influences the regulation of adipose-liver crosstalk and highlight the importance of extrahepatic metabolism in the pathogenesis of diet-induced steatosis and NAFLD.

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.

Mtfp1 ablation enhances mitochondrial respiration and protects against hepatic steatosis- Co-IP

Project description:Hepatic steatosis is the result of an imbalance between nutrient delivery and metabolism in the liver. It is the first hallmark of Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and is characterized by the accumulation of excess lipids in the liver that can drive liver failure, inflammation, and cancer. Mitochondria control the fate and function of cells and compelling evidence implicates these multifunctional organelles in the appearance and progression of liver dysfunction, although it remains to be elucidated which specific mitochondrial functions are actually causally linked to NAFLD. Here, we identified Mitochondrial Fission Process 1 protein (MTFP1) as a key regulator of mitochondrial and metabolic activity in the liver. Deletion of Mtfp1 in hepatocytes is physiologically benign in mice yet leads to the upregulation of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes and mitochondrial respiration, independently of mitochondrial biogenesis. Consequently, hepatocyte-specific knockout mice are protected against high fat diet-induced hepatic steatosis and metabolic dysregulation. Additionally, we find that deletion of Mtfp1 in liver mitochondria inhibits mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening in hepatocytes, conferring protection against apoptotic liver damage in vivo and ex vivo. Our work uncovers novel functions of MTFP1 in the liver, positioning this gene as an unexpected regulator of OXPHOS and a therapeutic candidate for NAFLD.
