Candida albicans-specific Th17 cell-mediated response contributes to alcohol-associated liver disease [bulk TCR-seq]

ABSTRACT: Alcohol-associated liver disease is accompanied by changes in the intestinal mycobiome. How fungal dysbiosis contributes to liver disease is not clear. T-helper (Th17) cells mediate immune responses against fungi, but the interleukin 17 (IL17) pathway has been associated with pathogenesis of alcohol-associated liver disease. Here, we demonstrate that Candida albicans (C. albicans)-specific Th17 cells are increased in the circulation and present in the liver of patients with alcohol-associated liver disease. Chronic ethanol administration to mice results in migration of C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells from the intestine to the liver. The antifungal agent nystatin reduced intestinal fungal overgrowth, decreased C. albicans-specific Th17 cells in the liver, and reduced features of ethanol-induced liver disease in mice. Transgenic mice that express a T-cell receptor (TCR) reactive to Candida antigens develop more severe ethanol-induced liver disease than transgene-negative littermates; disease severity was reduced by administration of an antibody against IL17 to the TCR transgenic mice. Adoptive transfer of C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells exacerbated ethanol-induced liver disease in wild-type mice. IL17 receptor A (IL17ra) signaling in Kupffer cells was required for the effects of C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells. Our findings indicate that ethanol increases C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells, which contribute to alcohol-associated liver disease.

Blockade of lL17 signaling reverses alcohol-induced liver injury, and excessive alcohol drinking in mice.

Project description:Chronic alcohol abuse has a detrimental effect on the brain and liver. There is no effective treatment for these patients and the mechanism underlying alcohol addiction and consequent alcohol-induced damage of the liver/brain axis remains unresolved. We compared experimental models of alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and alcohol dependence in mice and demonstrated that genetic ablation of IL17 Receptor A (IL17ra-/-), or pharmacological blockade of IL17 signaling effectively suppressed the increased voluntary alcohol drinking in alcohol-dependent mice, and blocked alcohol-induced hepatocellular and neurological damage. The level of circulating IL17A positively correlated with the alcohol use in excessive drinkers, and was further increased in patients with ALD as compared to healthy individuals. Our data suggest that IL17A is a common mediator of excessive alcohol consumption and alcohol-induced liver/brain injury, and targeting IL17A may provide a novel strategy for treatment of alcohol-induced pathology.

Quantifying Competition Among Mitochondrial Protein Acylation Events Induced by Ethanol Metabolism

Project description:Mitochondrial dysfunction is one of many key factors in the etiology of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Lysine acetylation is known to regulate numerous mitochondrial metabolic pathways and recent reports demonstrate that alcohol-induced protein acylation negatively impacts these processes. To identify regulatory mechanisms attributed to alcohol-induced protein post-translational modifications, we employed a model of alcohol consumption within the context of wild type (WT), sirtuin 3 knockout (SIRT3 KO), and sirtuin 5 knockout(SIRT5 KO) mice to manipulate hepatic mitochondrial protein acylation. Mitochondrial fractions were examined by label-free quantitative HPLC-MS/MS to reveal competition between lysine acetylation and succinylation. A class of proteins defined as “differential acyl switching proteins” demonstrate select sensitivity to alcohol-induced protein acylation. A number of these proteins reveal saturated lysine-site occupancy, suggesting a significant level of differential stoichiometry in the setting of ethanol consumption. We hypothesize that ethanol downregulates numerous mitochondrial metabolic pathways through differential acyl switching proteins.

Transcriptome analysis of garlic induced hepatoprotection against alcoholic fatty liver

Project description:Alcohol induced fatty liver cause a dangerous health problem and is the major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Garlic (Allium sativum) is documented to possess anti-fatty liver properties. However the exact molecular mechanisms are unknown. The main aim of this experiment is to elucidate the underlying pathways through which garlic ameliorates alcohol induced fatty liver. Dially disulfide and garlic oil were the garlic compounds used in this study. Leiber DeCarli ethanol liquid diet was to induce fatty liver in C57BL/6 mice model. Also the expression impaired by alcohol induced fatty liver is another aim of this study. Leiber-Decarli ethanol diet was used to induce fatty liver in male C57BL/6 mice (n=12). For control, Lieber-DeCarli liquid control diet was fed to mice (n=4). The control mice were pair-fed to the ethanol mice. After adaptation, the ethanol fed mice were divided into three groups viz. alcohol (n=4), dially disulfide [DADS] (n=4) and garlic oil [GO] (n=4). The study started with the administration of DADS (15 mg/kg bw) or GO (50 mg/kg bw) mixed in 0.1 ml olive oil through gavage. For the control and alcohol groups, same amount of olive oil (0.1 ml) was gavaged. The mice were gavaged daily for 4 weeks. The mice were euthanized by CO2 and blood was collected by cardiac puncture. Liver, kidney, spleen, lungs and hearts were collected and their weights recorded. A portion of liver was snap frozen in liquid nitrogen (200 mg) for RNA extraction.

p53 regulates ethanol metabolism via ALDH2 modulating the development of alcoholic fatty liver disease

Project description:The tumor suppressor p53 is critical for tumor suppression and other biological events. Yet, the regulatory role of p53 in alcohol-induced fatty liver remains unclear. Here, we show a role for p53 in regulating the ethanol metabolism via acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), a key enzyme responsible for oxidization of alcohol. Through repressing ethanol oxidization, p53 suppresses intracellular levels of acetyl-CoA and histone acetylation, leading to the inhibition of the stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1) gene expression. Mechanistically, p53 directly binds to ALDH2 and prevents the formation of its active tetramer, and indirectly limits the production of pyruvate that promotes the activity of ALDH2. Notably, p53 deficient mice exhibit increased lipid accumulation, which can be reversed by ALDH2 depletion. Moreover, hepatic specific knockdown of SCD1 diminishes ethanol-induced fatty liver caused by p53 loss. By contrast, overexpression of SCD1 in liver promotes ethanol-induced fatty liver development in wildtype mice, while has mild effect on p53-/- or ALDH2-/- mice. Overall, our findings reveal a previously unrecognized function of p53 in alcohol-induced fatty liver, and uncover pyruvate as a natural regulator of ALDH2.

ALD miRNA expression

Project description:Alcoholic liver diseases (ALDs) encompass a broad spectrum of clinical features of alcoholic fatty liver, alcoholic steatohepatitis and cirrhosis, and increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. While the toxic effects of alcohol likely result from complex interactions between genes and the environment, the molecular mechanisms of alcohol-induced liver damage remains undefined. Thus, a better understanding of the mechanisms regulating hepatic cell injury may lead to more effective therapeutic approaches for ALD. Here we compared the miRNA expression profile from tissues from control mice and mice receiving intragastric ethanol feeding. Four microarray hybridization studies were performed on three different pairs of liver-derived RNA from intragastric ethanol feeding and normal mice. The miRNAs differentially overexpressed in livers from ethanol fed mice.

Fatty liver disease caused by high alcohol-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae

Project description:To further explore the overall development and progression of hepatic steatosis induced by HiAlc Kpn, we examined liver transcriptional profiles derived HiAlc Kpn-fed, pair-fed, or ethanol-fed mice for the 4th, 6th and 8th week post gavage. The liver gene expressions in mice both with HiAlc Kpn-fed and ethanol-fed have been showed large diversities to pair-fed mice. These results clearly illustrated a process of chronic liver injury, which is consistent with previous “two-hits” insulin hypothesis, and suggested that endogenous ethanol produced by HiAlc Kpn play important roles in the steatohepatitis, as well as alcohol intake.

Expression data of the livers in mouse with iso-α-acids intake

Project description:Scope: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is a major cause of chronic liver disease and is induced by alcohol consumption. Acetaldehyde produced by alcohol metabolism enhances the fibrosis of the liver through hepatic stellate cells. Additionally, alcohol administration causes the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which induce hepatocyte-injury-mediated lipid peroxidation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the protective effects of iso-α-acids against alcoholic liver injury in hepatocytes in mice. Methods and results: C57BL/6N mice were fed diets containing isomerized hop extract, which mainly consists of iso-α-acids. After 7 days of feeding, acetaldehyde was administered by a single intraperitoneal injection. The acetaldehyde-induced increases in serum AST and ALT levels were suppressed by iso-α-acids intake. Hepatic gene expression analyses showed the upregulation of the glutathione-S-transferase, alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase genes. In vitro, iso-α-acids induced the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-like 2 (Nfe2l2; Nrf2), a master regulator of antioxidant and detoxifying systems, and upregulated the enzymatic activities of glutathione-S-transferase and aldehyde dehydrogenase. Conclusions: These results suggest that iso-α-acids intake prevents alcoholic liver disease injury by reducing oxidative stress via the Nrf2-mediated pathway.

Effect of depletion of S100A16 on gene expression during lipid accumulation of primary hepatocytes

Project description:Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) encompasses conditions ranging from simple steatosis to cirrhosis and even liver cancer. It has gained significant global attention in recent years. Despite this, effective pharmacological treatments for ALD remain elusive, and the core mechanisms underlying the disease are not yet fully comprehended. S100A16, a newly identified calcium-binding protein, is linked to lipid metabolism. Our research has discovered elevated levels of the S100A16 protein in both serum and liver tissue of ALD patients. A similar surge in hepatic S100A16 expression was noted in a Gao-binge alcohol feeding mouse model. S100a16 knockdown alleviated ethanol-induced liver injury, steatosis and inflammation. Conversely, S100a16 transgenic mice showed aggravating phenomenon. Mechanistically, we identify mesencephalic astrocyte-derived neurotrophic factor (MANF) as a regulated entity downstream of S100a16 deletion. MANF inhibited ER-stress signal transduction induced by alcohol stimulation. Meanwhile, MANF silencing suppressed the inhibition effect of S100a16 knockout on ethanol-induced lipid droplets accumulation in primary hepatocytes. Our data suggested that S100a16 deletion protects mice against alcoholic liver lipid accumulation and inflammation dependent on upregulating MANF and inhibiting ER stress. This offers a potential therapeutic avenue for ALD treatment.
