Impact of dietary cholesterol on Macrophages during non-alcoholic steatohepatitis progression

ABSTRACT: Inflammation, mediated by liver-resident Kupffer cells (KCs) and recruited infiltrating macrophages (IMs), plays a critical role in NAFLD pathogenesis. Cholesterol induces pro-inflammatory cytokine production by macrophages and has been identified as a key factor involved in progression from simple steatosis to NASH. In this study, using the fructose, palmitate, cholesterol & trans-fat (FPC) diet model which recapitulates human NAFLD, we aimed to determine the impact of cholesterol manipulation on NAFLD progression/regression and macrophage phenotype in vivo.The transcriptomic evaluation of hepatic macrophages from mice fed with FPC diet contained the highest concentration of cholesterol (1.25%) suggest these cells might contribute to liver inflammation, steatohepatitis, and hepatocarcinoma pathways during the progression phase.

Hepatic Lysosomal Acid Lipase Overexpression Worsens Hepatic Inflammation in Mice Fed a Western Diet

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by the accumulation of lipid droplets (LD) in hepatocytes. NAFLD development and progression is associated with an increase in hepatic cholesterol and decreased autophagy and lipophagy flux. Previous studies have shown that the expression of lysosomal acid lipase (gene=LIPA, protein=LAL), which can hydrolyze both triglyceride and cholesteryl esters, is inversely correlated with the severity of NAFLD. In addition, ablation of LAL activity results in profound NAFLD. Based on this, we predicted that overexpressing LIPA in the livers of mice fed a Western diet (FPC) would prevent the development of NAFLD. As expected, mice fed the FPC diet exhibited numerous markers of NAFLD including hepatomegaly, lipid accumulation, and inflammation. Unexpectedly, LAL overexpression did not attenuate steatosis and had only minor effects on neutral lipid composition. However, LAL overexpression exacerbated inflammatory gene expression and infiltration of immune cells in mice fed the FPC diet. LAL overexpression also resulted in abnormal phagosome accumulation and lysosomal lipid accumulation depending upon the dietary treatment. Hepatic overexpression of LAL drove immune cell infiltration and inflammation and did not attenuate the development of NAFLD suggesting that targeting LAL expression is not a viable route to treat NAFLD.

Myeloid cells in liver and bone marrow acquire a functionally distinct inflammatory phenotype during obesity-related steatohepatitis

Project description:Objective: Bone marrow-derived myeloid cells accumulate in the liver as monocytes and macrophages during the progression of obesity-related non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to steatohepatitis (NASH). Myeloid cells comprise heterogeneous subsets, and dietary overnutrition may affect macrophages in liver and bone marrow. We therefore aimed at characterizing in-depth the functional adaptations of myeloid cells in fatty liver. Design: We employed single-cell RNA-sequencing to comprehensively assess the heterogeneity of myeloid cells in liver and bone marrow during NAFLD, by analyzing C57BL/6 mice fed with a high-fat, high-sugar, high-cholesterol "Western diet" for 16 weeks. We also characterized NAFLD-driven functional adaptations of macrophages in vitro and their functional relevance during steatohepatitis in vivo.

Effect of Activin A and Gpnmb on gene expression in NAFLD/NASH liver in C57BL/6J mice and gene expression change in C57BL/6J mice fed on sugar water-NAFLD/NASH diet compared with standard chow diet

Project description:To investigate the mechanism of hepatic Activin A and Gpnmb in NAFLD/NASH, we studied C57BL/6J mice on a FPC NASH diet and sugar water for 16 weeks, compared with standard chow diet, and used adeno-associated viral vectors with a liver-specific thyroxine binding globulin (TBG) promoter to express Activin A or GFP (control), or AAV8-H1-shRNA to knockdown of Gpnmb or scramble control in NAFLD/NASH liver. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 3 different livers in each group.

M-NM-2-Cryptoxanthin suppresses inflammatory gene expression in diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in mice

Project description:To evaluate the effect of M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin on diet-induced NASH, we fed a high-cholesterol and high-fat diet (CL diet) with or without 0.003% M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin to C56BL/6J mice for 12 weeks. After feeding, M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin attenuated fat accumulation, increases in Kupffer and activated stellate cells, and fibrosis in CL diet-induced NASH in the mice. Comprehensive gene expression analysis showed that although M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin histochemically reduced steatosis, it was more effective in inhibiting inflammatory gene expression change in NASH. M-NM-2-Cryptoxanthin reduced the alteration of expression of genes associated with cell death, inflammatory responses, infiltration and activation of macrophages and other leukocytes, quantity of T cells, and free radical scavenging. However, it showed little effect on the expression of genes related to cholesterol and other lipid metabolism. The expression of markers of M1 and M2 macrophages, T helper cells, and cytotoxic T cells was significantly induced in NASH and reduced by M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin. M-NM-2-Cryptoxanthin suppressed the expression of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-inducible and/or TNFM-NM-1-inducible genes and the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 1 in NASH. Thus, M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin suppresses inflammation and the resulting fibrosis probably by primarily suppressing the increase and activation of macrophages and other immune cells. Reducing oxidative stress is likely to be a major mechanism of inflammation and injury suppression in the livers of mice with NASH. Eight-week old male C57BL/6J mice were fed for 12 weeks on a CRF-1 standard chow (control), a high-cholesterol and high-fat diet (CL diet; 38.23% CRF-1, 60% cocoa butter, 1.25% cholesterol, 0.5% sodium cholate) or a CL diet containing 0.003% M-NM-2-cryptoxanthin.

Hepatic transcriptome response to high dietary cholesterol intake in pig NAFLD model

Project description:The mechanisms by which cholesterol promotes NAFLD remain far less clear. Animal models are necessary to explore the pathogenesis and therapies of NAFLD. Several previous studies have shown that pig breeds can differ in their metabolic phenotype in response to high-energy diet. To investigate whether genetic background has profound effects on pig NAFLD phenotype and their metabolic response to dietary cholesterol intake, we performed RNA-Seq on liver tissues from two miniature pig breeds fed either standard or a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet for 6 months.

Developmental programming of Kupffer cells by maternal obesity causes fatty liver disease in the offspring II

Project description:Kupffer cells (KCs) are tissue-resident macrophages which colonize the developing liver early during embryogenesis1. Throughout development and adulthood, KCs have distinct core functions that are essential for liver and organismal homeostasis, such as supporting fetal erythropoiesis as well as postnatal erythrocyte recycling and liver metabolism2. KCs acquire their tissue-specific transcriptional signature immediately after colonizing the liver, mature together with the tissue, and adapt to the tissue’s function1,3,4. However, whether perturbation of macrophage core functions during development may contribute to or cause disease at postnatal stages is poorly understood. Here, we utilize a maternal obesity model to disturb KC functions during gestation. We show that offspring born to obese mothers develop fatty liver disease that is accompanied by a local pro-inflammatory response, a phenotype that is augmented if the offspring is kept on control diet after birth. Further, transcriptional analyses reveal that KCs undergo developmental programming through the maternal high-fat diet, which lasts until adulthood. The offspring’s KC developmental programming is irreversible despite the switch to control diet and leads to increased lipid uptake in hepatocytes mediated via paracrine factors stemming from KCs. The transcriptional programming of KCs and the fatty liver disease phenotype are rescued by genetic depletion of hypoxia-inducible factor alpha (Hif1a) in macrophages during gestation. These results demonstrate that macrophages rely on an undisturbed development to fulfil their core functions and support organ homeostasis during adulthood, and establish developmental programming of KCs as a therapeutic strategy for metabolic disorders, such as fatty liver disease.

Hepatocyte Deletion of Triglyceride-Synthesis Enzyme DGAT2 Reduces Steatosis without Increasing Inflammation or Fibrosis

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by excess lipid accumulation in hepatocytes and reprepresents a huge public health problem owing to its propensity to progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrosis, and liver failure. The lipids stored in hepatic steatosis are primarily triglycerides (TGs) synthesized by two acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) enzymes. Either DGAT1 or DGAT2 catalyzes this reaction, and these enzymes have been suggested to differentially utilize exogenous or endogenously synthesized fatty acids, with DGAT2 being linked to storage of fatty acids from de novo lipogenesis, a process that is increased in NAFLD. However, whether DGAT2 is more responsible for lipid accumulation in NAFLD and the progression to fibrosis is currently unknown. Also, it is unresolved whether DGAT2 can be safely inhibited as a therapy for NAFLD. Here we induced NAFLD-like disease in mice by feeding a diet rich in fructose, saturated fat, and cholesterol and found that hepatocyte-specfici Dgat2 deficiency reduced expression of de novo lipogenesis genes and lowered liver TGs by ~70%. Importantly, the reduction of steatosis was not accompanied by increased inflammation or fibrosis, and insulin and glucose metabolism were unchanged. Conclusion: This study suggests that hepatic DGAT2 deficiency successfully reduced diet-induced hepatic steatosis and supports the development of DGAT2 inhibitors as a therapeutic strategy for treating NAFLD and preventing downstream consequences.
