YAP disrupts bile acid homeostasis to drive cancer-associated cachexia [Crispant_RNAseq]

ABSTRACT: Cancer-associated cachexia is a severe metabolic syndrome marked by dramatic loss of adipose and muscle mass. Although preclinical models have advanced our understanding of cachexia, there are still no approved therapies due to the limited insights into the mechanisms underlying tissue wasting. Here, we utilise a YAP-driven model of liver cancer in zebrafish, which rapidly develops cachexia, to uncover an evolutionarily conserved role for bile acid disruption in the onset of cachexia. Spatial transcriptomic analysis revealed that YAP induces a bi-lineage cholangiocarcinoma phenotype, which was associated with bile acid dysregulation. Mechanistically, we establish that both bile acid synthesis (via CYP7A1) and signalling through the bile acid receptor TGR5 are essential for cachexia induction. Notably, we find that the promotion of bile acid excretion with odevixibat ameliorates cachexia. Together, our findings reveal an evolutionarily conserved mechanism by which YAP promotes cachexia and suggest a potential therapeutic strategy to treat the syndrome

Liver gene expression profile _ wild type_ CYP7A1 transgenic

Project description:Bile acids are not only physiological detergents facilitating nutrient absorption, but also signaling molecules regulating metabolic homeostasis. We reported recently that transgenic expression of CYP7A1 in mice stimulated bile acid synthesis and prevented Western diet-induced obesity, insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis. The aim of this experiment is to determine the impact of induction of hepatic bile acid synthesis on liver metabolism by determining hepatic gene expression profile in CYP7A1 transgenic mice. CYP7A1 transgenic mice and wild type control mice were fed either standard chow diet or high fat high cholesterol Western diet for 4 month. Hepatic gene expressions were measured by microarray analysis. Our results indicate that hepatic bile acid synthesis is closely linked to cholesterogenesis and lipogenesis, and maintaining bile acid homeostasis is improtant in hepatic metabolic homeostasis. Male aged matched (~ 12-14 weeks) CYP7A1 transgenic mice and their wild type control littermates were fed a standard chow diet or a high fat (42%) high cholesterol (0.2%) diet (Harlan Teklad #88137) for 4 month Four groups (4 mice/group) are included in the experiments: Group 1: WT _ Chow Group 2: CYP7A1-tg + chow Group 3: WT + Western diet Group 4: CYP7A1-tg _ Western diet Total liver mRNA was isolated with a RNeasy kit (Qiagen) and used for microarray analysis.

Hepatic Mettl14 Knockout Disrupts Bile Acid Homeostasis and Alters Fecal Microbiota Composition

Project description:Bile acids are multifunctional signaling molecules that play significant roles in maintaining microbial homeostasis. N6-methyladenine (m6A), the most abundant epitranscriptomic modification, mediates various biological processes by modulating RNA metabolism. However, the precise regulatory mechanisms of m6A methylation in bile acid metabolism, and its downstream effects on microbiota remain unclear. In this study, liver-specific Mettl14 knockout (Mettl14-LKO) reshaped bile acid profile and expression levels of protein related to bile acid metabolism, namely CYP7A1, FXR, and BSEP. M6A-seq data revealed m6A methylated peaks on CYP7A1. Mettl14-LKO significantly elevated expression of m6A “reader” IGF2BP3. Knockdown of IGF2BP3 inhibited CYP7A1 expression by decreasing mRNA stability. Mechanistically, Mettl14-LKO promoted bile acid synthesis by upregulating CYP7A1 expression in an m6A-IGF2BP3-dependent manner. Interestingly, Mettl14-LKO reduced bile acid content in ileum due to decreased BSEP level in liver. Noteworthy, we discovered for the first time that Mettl14 knockout in the liver altered fecal microbiota composition. Specifically, it changed the abundance of Cyanobacteria and Patescibacteria at phylum level, and Lachnochostridium, Candidatus-Saccharimonas, and Roseburia at genera level. Remarkably, Roseburia was negatively correlated with the bile acid levels and CYP7A1 expression. Our findings provide new insights into the role of METTL14 in regulating bile acid homeostasis and its impact on fecal microbiota. Roseburia emerges as a potential target for addressing metabolic diseases linked to disrupted METTL14 signaling.

Iron deficiency promotes bile acid deposition in an m6A-YTHDF2-CYP7A1 dependent mechanism

Project description:Background: Iron deficiency anemia is a major challenge in in both human health and animal husbandry. Disrupted bile acid metabolism is a key characteristic among people with anemia. However, effects and mechanisms of iron deficiency on bile acid metabolism remain unclear. N6-methyladenine (m6A) is the most abundant epigenetic modification, which can regulate various nutrient metabolism. This study aimed to investigate effect of iron deficiency on bile acid metabolism and elucidate its mechanism from the perspective of m6A methylation. Results: Iron deficiency (ID) destroyed liver morphology and ultrastructure in suckling piglet. Notably, ID induced moderate dilation of the endoplasmic reticulum and a reduction in mitochondrial number. At the metabolite level, ID significantly promoted bile acid deposition and reshaped bile acid profile. Specifically, ID decreased contents of GCA, CDCA, and 6-KetoLCA, while increasing levels of THDCA, TωMCA, DCA, GDCA, and TDCA (P < 0.05). At the molecular level, ID upregulated CYP7A1 expression to promoted bile acid deposition. Moreover, ID significantly decreased m6A content, and reduced expression of FTO and YTHDF2 (P < 0.05). M6A-seq data revealed an increase in m6A methylated peaks on CYP7A1 under ID condition. Importantly, RNA immunoprecipitation and stability experiments demonstrated YTHDF2 could bind and decrease stability of CYP7A1 (P < 0.05). Mechanistically, ID reduced YTHDF2 expression, thereby stabilizing CYP7A1 and driving bile acid accumulation. Conclusion: Iron deficiency induced bile acid deposition in an m6A-YTHDF2-CYP7A1 dependent manner, which further causes liver injury.

Bile acid receptor Tgr5 prevents macrophage hyperinflammation during bacterial sepsis through metabolic and epigenetic silencing

Project description:Tgr5 is a membrane-bound bile acid receptor that negatively regulates immune cells, although the molecular mechanisms behind this observation remain elusive. Here we report that Tgr5 is upregulated in macrophages during stimulation with Listeria monocytogenes and that Tgr5-deficient macrophages are hyperinflammatory and mice with myeloid Tgr5 deficiency are more susceptible to Listeria monocytogenes sepsis. Unexpectedly, Tgr5-deficient macrophages show reduced glycolysis and ATP citrate lyase expression, which cumulates in Acetyl-CoA deficiency and metabolic-epigenetic gene silencing, driving macrophages towards a hyperinflammatory phenotype during bacterial sepsis

The G protein-coupled bile acid receptor TGR5 (Gpbar1) modulates endothelin-1 signalling in liver

Project description:TGR5 (Gpbar1) is a G protein-coupled receptor responsive to bile acids (BAs), which is expressed in different non-parenchymal cells of the liver, including biliary epithelial cells, liver-resident macrophages, sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs) and activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Mice with targeted deletion of TGR5 are more susceptible towards cholestatic liver injury induced by cholic acid-feeding and bile duct ligation, resulting in a reduced proliferative response and increased liver injury. Conjugated lithocholic acid (LCA) represents the most potent TGR5 BA ligand and LCA-feeding has been used as a model to rapidly induce severe cholestatic liver injury in mice. Thus, TGR5 knockout (KO) mice and wildtype littermates were fed a diet supplemented with 1%LCA for 84 hours. Liver injury and gene expression changes induced by the LCA-diet revealed an enrichment of pathways associated with inflammation, proliferation and matrix remodelling. Knockout of TGR5 in mice caused upregulation of endothelin-1 (ET-1) expression in the livers. Analysis of TGR5-dependent ET-1 signalling in isolated LSECs and HSCs demonstrated that TGR5 activation reduces ET-1 expression and secretion from LSECs and triggers internalization of the ET-1 receptor in HSCs dampening ET-1 responsiveness. Thus, we identified two independent mechanisms by which TGR5 inhibits ET-1 signalling and modulates portal pressure.

Downregulation of TGR5 (GPBAR1) in biliary epithelial cells is characteristic of sclerosing cholangitis and may contribute to disease pathogenesis

Project description:Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is characterized by chronic inflammation and progressive fibrosis of the biliary tree. The bile acid receptor TGR5 is found on biliary epithelial cells (BECs), where it promotes secretion, proliferation and tight junction integrity. Thus, we speculated that changes in TGR5 expression in BECs may contribute to PSC pathogenesis.

MicroRNA-185 modulates CYP7A1 mediated bile acid metabolism through posttranscriptionally and posttranslationally regulation of FoxO1

Project description:Cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7A1) is the rate limiting enzyme of bile acid biosynthetic pathway to convert cholesterol to bile acids, which is a major output pathway for cholesterol catabolism. In this study, we aimed to assess the potential regulatory mechanisms of microRNA-185 (miR-185) involved in cholesterol and bile acid homeostasis. This study provides convincing evidences about the critical role of miR-185 in FoxO1 modulation at both posttranscriptional and posttranslational levels, which account for the effects on CYP7A1 gene and its mediated cholesterol-bile acid metabolism. These results suggest an important role of miR-185 as a novel atherosclerosis-protective target for drug discovery.

DCA-TGR5 signaling activation alleviates inflammatory response and improves cardiac function in myocardial infarction

Project description:The progression of myocardial infarction (MI) involves multiple metabolic disorders. Bile acid metabolites have been increasingly recognized as pleiotropic signalling molecules that regulate multiple cardiovascular functions. G protein-coupled bile acid receptor (TGR5) is one of the receptors sensing bile acids to mediate their biological functions. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the effects of bile acids-TGR5 signaling pathways in myocardial infarction (MI).Mice underwent either the LAD ligation model of MI or sham operation. Both MI and sham mice were gavaged with 10 mg/kg/d DCA or vehicle control since 3-day before the operation. Administration of DCA improved cardiac function at the 3th-day post-MI. The effects of DCA in the heart were determined by RNA-sequencing experiments.

Influence of ascorbic acid depletion on gene expression in liver and lipid metabolism

Project description:Ascorbic acid (AA) is a powerful antioxidant and play as a cofactor for various enzymes in vivo. In this study, we investigated the effect of AA depletion on gene expression in the liver and lipid metabolism by using SMP30/GNL knockout (KO) mice which are unable to biosynthesis AA. First, we performed microarray analysis. Briefly, SMP30/GNL KO mice were weaned and divided into two groups; AA-depleted and supplemented groups, which mice were free access to water containing 1.5 g/L AA. After 4 weeks, mRNA was isolated and purified from the liver. In this study, Affymetrix® GeneChip® was used for microarray analysis. Actually, AA-depletion altered many gene expressions related to lipid metabolism. Especially, Cytochrome P450 7a1 (Cyp7a1), a late-limiting enzyme of bile acid biosynthesis, gene expression was significantly up-regulated. We also confirmed Cyp7a1 protein levels by Western blotting. Next, we investigated the influence of AA depletion on lipid metabolism. We examined the lipid and bile acid levels in the liver, plasma, and gallbladder from SMP30/GNL KO mice. Amount of total bile acid (TBA), free fatty acid (FA), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and phospholipids (PL) were measured by colorimetric method. AA depletion reduced TBA levels in the liver and gallbladder. However, FA, TC, TG, and PL in the plasma and liver were not changed by AA depletion. Although Cyp7a1 gene expression and protein levels were increased by AA depletion, amount of bile acid were reduced. Conclusively, we have shown that AA depletion reduced bile acid biosynthesis and elevated Cyp7a1 gene expression and protein levels. Thus, AA is an essential for bile acid biosynthesis pathway.
