Deletion of Scap in Alveolar Type II Cells Influences Lung Lipid Homeostasis and Identifies a Compensatory Role for Pulmonary Lipofibroblasts

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary function after birth is dependent upon surfactant lipids that reduce surface tension in the alveoli. The sterol-responsive element-binding proteins (SREBPs) are transcription factors regulating expression of genes controlling lipid homeostasis in many tissues. To identify the role of SREBPs in the lung, we conditionally deleted the SREBP cleavage-activating protein gene, Scap, in respiratory epithelial cells (Scap∆/∆) in vivo. Prior to birth (E18.5), deletion of Scap decreased the expression of both SREBPs and a number of genes regulating fatty acid and cholesterol metabolism. Nevertheless, Scap∆/∆ mice survived postnatally, surfactant and lung tissue lipids being substantially normalized in adult Scap∆/∆ mice. Although phospholipid synthesis was decreased in type II cells from adult Scap∆/∆ mice, lipid storage, synthesis, and transfer by lung lipofibroblasts were increased. mRNA microarray data indicated that SCAP influenced two major gene networks, one regulating lipid metabolism and the other stress-related responses. Deletion of the SCAP/SREBP pathway in respiratory epithelial cells altered lung lipid homeostasis and induced compensatory lipid accumulation and synthesis in lung lipofibroblasts.

Combined analysis of oligonucleotide microarray data from transgenic and knockout mice identifies direct SREBP target genes [MG_U74Av2]

Project description:The synthesis of fatty acids and cholesterol is regulated by three membrane-bound transcription factors: sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBP)-1a, -1c, and -2. Their function in liver has been characterized in transgenic mice that overexpress each SREBP isoform and in mice that lack all three nuclear SREBPs because of gene knockout of SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) required for nuclear localization of SREBPs. Here, we use oligonucleotide arrays hybridized with RNA from livers of three lines of mice (transgenic for SREBP-1a, transgenic for SREBP-2, and knockout for SCAP) to identify genes that are likely to be direct targets of SREBPs in liver. Application of stringent combinatorial criteria to the transgenic/knockout approach allows identification of genes whose activities are likely controlled directly by the SREBPs.

Examination of hepatic SREBP-2 binding using ChIP-Seq

Project description:Sterol regulatory element binding proteins (SREBPs) are key transcriptional regulators of lipid metabolism. To define functional differences between the three mammalian SREBPs we are using genome-wide ChIP-seq with isoform-specific antibodies and chromatin from select tissues of mice challenged with different dietary conditions that enrich for specific SREBPs. We show hepatic SREBP-2 binds preferentially to two different gene-proximal motifs. Gene ontology analyses suggests SREBP-2 targets lipid metabolic processes as expected but apoptosis and autophagy gene categories were also enriched. We show SREBP-2 directly activates autophagy genes during cell sterol depletion, conditions known to induce both autophagy and nuclear SREBP-2 levels. Additionally, SREBP-2 knockdown during nutrient depletion decreased autophagosome formation and lipid droplet association of the autophagosome targeting protein LC3. Thus, the lipid droplet could be viewed as a third source of cellular cholesterol, which along with sterol synthesis and uptake, is also regulated by SREBP-2. Examination of hepatic SREBP-2 binding using ChIP-Seq. One ChIP-Seq dataset and one IgG control.

Liver tumor gene expression profile of liver-specific PTEN KO, PTEN/SCAP double KO mice

Project description:Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a severe form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, is characterized by hepatic steatosis and hepatocellular injury and progresss cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Sterol regulatory elment-binding proteins (SREBPs) are master regulators of lipogenesis. Liver-specific PTEN knockout (KO) mice show constitutive upregulation of SREBP through PI3K-Akt pathway activation, leading to spontaneous fatty liver and subsequent HCC development. SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) plays a critical role in SREBP activation. We sought to determine the impact of SREBP inhibition on NASH and HCC development. To this end, we additionaly inhibited SREBP pathway in liver-specific PTEN mice by ablating SCAP and generated liver-specific PTEN/SCAP double KO (DKO) mice. However unexpectedly, inhibition of SCAP/SREBP pathway markedly exacerbated liver injury (5weeks), fibrosis (5months), and carcinogenesis (7 months) in PTEN KO mice. To elucidate the mechanisms of liver tumorigenesis in liver-specific PTEN/SCAP DKO mice, we conducted transcriptome analyses of the livers.

The expression profiling comparison of mice with Scap and Insig deletion from perinatal lung (E17.5-PN1)

Project description:In this study, we studied the genomic responses of the Insig and Scap deletion from perinatal lung. Through comprehensive data analysis and integration, time dependent effects of epithelial SCAP/INSIG/SREBP deletion and defined SCAP/INSIG/SREBP-associated genes, bioprocesses and downstream pathways were identified. Total lung RNA was isolated from Scapdelata/delta, Insig1/2delta/delta, and respective control littermates at E17.5, E18.5 and PN1 were used for mRNA expression profiling analysis (n=3 for each condition)

Activation of SREBP in Alveolar Type II Cells Enhances Lipogenesis Causing Pulmonary Lipotoxicity

Project description:Background: Lung function is dependent upon the precise regulation of the synthesis, storage, and catabolism of tissue and alveolar lipids. Results: Activation of SREBP (Sterol Response Element Binding Protein) induced lipogenesis in alveolar epithelial cells, causing neutral lipid accumulation, lung inflammation, and tissue remodeling. Conclusions: The accumulation of neutral lipids in type II epithelial cells and alveolar macrophages caused lung inflammation, consistent with findings in lipid storage disorders. Significance: Pulmonary lipotoxicity may contribute to the pathogenesis of lung dysfunction associated with diabetes, obesity, and other metabolic disorders.
