A multi-stage transcriptomic resource of Artemisitene (ATT) for enhancing liver organoid functionality and treating metabolic liver disease.

ABSTRACT: This study presents an integrated transcriptomic analysis establishing Artemisitene (ATT) as a potent modulator for both engineering functional human liver organoids and treating metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). RNA-seq was conducted on stem cell-derived liver organoids under three key conditions: ATT-driven hepatic differentiation, ATT-enhanced functional maturation, and ATT intervention in an FFA-induced MASLD model. ATT robustly promoted hepatic lineage specification and maturation by activating drug metabolism and key transport pathways. Crucially, in the disease model, ATT exerted a therapeutic effect by globally reversing FFA-induced transcriptional dysregulation, specifically by inhibiting lipogenic programs (via genes like SCD1 and MLXIPL) and activating fatty acid oxidation and antioxidant defenses. Gene set enrichment analysis pinpointed the AMPK signaling pathway as a central mechanism mediating these benefits. These findings position ATT as a promising candidate for improving organoid-based liver models and developing novel therapeutics for MASLD.

Dysregulation of GTPase-activating protein-binding protein1 in the pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) are two common liver disorders characterized by abnormal lipid accumulation. Our study found reduced levels of GTPase-activating protein-binding protein1（G3BP1）in patients with MASLD and MASH, suggesting its involvement in these liver disorders. Hepatocyte-specific G3BP1 knockout (G3BP1 HKO) mice had more severe MASLD and MASH than their corresponding controls. Intriguingly, the G3BP1 HKO MASLD model mice exhibit dysregulated autophagy, and biochemical analyses demonstrated that G3BP1 promotes autophagosome-lysosome fusion through direct interactions with the SNARE proteins STX17 and VAMP8. We also show that hepatic knockout of G3BP1 promotes de novo lipogenesis, and ultimately found that G3BP1 is required for the nuclear translocation of the well-known liver-lipid-regulating transcription factor TFE3. Taken together, our results suggest that G3BP1 should be investigated as a potential target for developing medical interventions to treat MASLD and MASH.

Murine corticotroph pituitary AtT-20 cells: Crh treatment time course

Project description:As the Crh-system and the HPA-axis are known to be crucially involved in the onset, development and maintainance of psychiatric disorders like anxiety and depression and regulate the behavioural and endocrine stress responses the further analysis of Crhr1-dependent signaling cascades is essential to understand the molecular mechanisms behind these psychiatric diseases. In this project, new candidate genes involved in Crhr1-dependent signaling cascades were dissected in the cell line model of AtT-20 cells by transcriptional profiling of mouse pituitary corticotroph cells comparing control untreated AtT-20 cells with AtT-20 cells treated with 100 nM Crh at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours. Keywords: time course, treatment response Two condition experiment: untreated vs. 100 nM Crh treated AtT-20 cells with a time curve of 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 hours. Technical replicates: 6 for each time point, including dye-swap each with 3 replicates

Induction ofsteatosis in primary human hepatocytes manifests into hepatic pathophysiology of metabolic dysfunction-associated liver disease

Project description:Background & Aims:The prevalence of metabolic dysfunction-associated liver disease (MASLD) has been strongly increasing over the last decades. As MASLD is often associated with more severe disease states, such as metabolic dysfunction-associated steato-hepatitis (MASH), insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, the increasing number of patients will contribute to an epidemic rise in metabolic abnormalities and end stage liver diseases. Despite the high demand, there are still no FDA-approved pharmaceutical treatments for MASLD due to low efficacy and high toxicity of the targets pursued, indicating a lack of appropriate pre-clinical models for selection and validation. To facilitate earlier stop-go decisions for continued target development, we have established and extensively characterized a primary human steatoticin vitrohepatocyte model system that could guide treatment strategies for MASLD. Methods:Cryopreserved primary human hepatocytes of different donors varying in sex and ethnicity were cultured with free fatty acids (FFA) in a 3D collagen sandwich system for 7 days and the development of MASLD was followed by assessing classical hepatocellular functions. As aproof-of-concept, the effects of Firsocostat (GS-0976) onin vitroMASLD phenotypes were evaluated. Results:Incubation with FFA induced known MASLD pathologies, including steatosis, insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation and alterations in prominent human gene signatures similar to patients with MASLD/MASH, indicating the recapitulation of human MASLD in this system. As the application of Firsocostat rescued clinically observed fatty liver disease pathologies, it highlights the ability of thein vitrosystem to test drug efficacy and potentially characterize their mode of action. Conclusions:Altogether, our human MASLDin vitromodel system could guide the development and validation of novel targets and drugs for the treatment of MASLD.

Kisspeptin Mitigates Hepatic De Novo Lipogenesis in Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatotic Liver Disease

Project description:Emerging evidence suggests that the peptide hormone kisspeptin, signaling via the kisspeptin 1 receptor (KISS1R), decreases hepatic steatosis and protects against metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). De novo lipogenesis (DNL) is a key contributor to the pathogenesis of MASLD. This study aimed to determine whether kisspeptin treatment of obese, diabetic mice directly attenuates DNL. DNL was assessed in kisspeptin-treated (KPA) or phosphate-buffer saline (PBS)-treated mouse livers, using a mouse model of MASLD employing metabolic tracing using 2H2O-enriched water and mass spectrometry. Kisspeptin-treated steatotic livers demonstrated a decrease in DNL of free fatty acids (FFA), known to be associated with type 2 diabetes, steatosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Enhancement of KISS1R signaling has a therapeutic effect in limiting DNL, suggesting a crucial role in restricting the pathogenesis and progression of MASLD.

Liver-Targeted siRNA Therapy Reveals a Causal Role of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease in Brain Dysfunction

Project description:Metabolic-dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has traditionally been studied as a liver-centric condition. However, growing clinical and experimental evidence reveals a strong link between MASLD and cognitive impairment and sensorimotor alterations. The mechanisms underlying this liver-brain axis remain poorly defined, and whether hepatic dysfunction alone is sufficient to drive central nervous system deficits is unclear. Using diet-induced non-obese mouse models of MASLD, we performed comprehensive neurocognitive and behavioral assessments. MASLD was associated with marked alterations in social memory, sensorimotor processing, and hippocampal function, including decreased parvalbumin-positive interneurons, reduced dendritic spine density, and diminished indicators of neurogenesis in the hippocampal dentate gyrus. Then, we selectively modulated liver metabolism through a hepatocyte-targeted siRNA therapy against Cyclin M4 (CNNM4), a magnesium transporter dysregulated in MASLD, employing GalNAc-siRNA technology for targeted delivery. Notably, liver-specific intervention with siRNA-CNNM4 reversed features of impaired social memory and sensorimotor processing through recovery of hippocampal synaptogenesis and mitochondrial function pathways, alongside activation of neurogenesis-associated transcriptional programs. Our findings demonstrate that liver pathology is sufficient to drive neurobehavioral and hippocampal dysfunction in MASLD. Importantly, hepatic-specific intervention restores brain function, strongly supporting the existence of a causal and therapeutically targetable liver-brain axis. These results open new avenues for treating MASLD-associated neurological complications through liver-directed therapies.

Hepatic AKAP1 Deficiency Exacerbates Diet-Induced MASLD by Enhancing GPAT1-mediated Lysophosphatidic Acid Synthesis

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), closely associated with obesity, can progress to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis when the liver undergoes overt inflammatory damage. A-kinase anchoring protein 1 (AKAP1) has been shown to control lipid accumulation in brown adipocytes. However, the role of AKAP1 signaling in hepatic lipid metabolism and MASLD remains poorly understood. Here, we showed that hepatocyte-specific AKAP1 deficiency exacerbated hepatic steatosis and steatohepatitis in male mice subjected to a high-fat diet and fast-food diet, respectively. Mechanistically, AKAP1 directly phosphorylated and inactivated glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase 1 (GPAT1) in a PKA-dependent manner, thus suppressing lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) production. Increased endogenous LPA in hepatocytes promoted hepatocellular triglyceride (TG) synthesis and initiated pronounced inflammatory response in Kupffer cells. Restoring hepatic AKAP1 or repressing LPA levels via GPAT1 knockdown alleviated MASLD exacerbation. Overall, AKAP1 plays a protective role against MASLD by inhibiting GPAT1 activity, highlighting the potential of targeting AKAP1/PKA/GPAT1 signalosome for MASLD therapy.

Adipocyte-specific deletion of gp130 prevents ketogenic AQ1 diet–induced hepatic steatosis

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MASLD), the hepatic manifestation of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D), can progress to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) and fibrosis. MASLD is characterized by elevated hepatic lipid accumulation (steatosis) and insulin resistance. Ketogenic diet (KD), a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet, induces hepatic insulin resistance and steatosis in animal models through unknown mechanisms. Our studies demonstrate the importance of adipose tissue-liver crosstalk in mediating MASLD progression and identify adipocyte IL-6-gp130 as a potential therapeutic target.

From LAL-D to MASLD: Insights into the role of LAL and Kupffer cells in liver inflammation and lipid metabolism

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a prevalent liver pathology worldwide, closely associated with obesity and metabolic disorders. Increasing evidence suggests that macrophages play a crucial role in the development of MASLD. Several human studies have shown an inverse correlation between circulating lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) activity and MASLD. LAL is the sole enzyme known to degrade cholesteryl esters (CE) and triacylglycerols in lysosomes. Consequently, these substrates accumulate when their enzymatic degradation is impaired due to LAL deficiency (LAL-D). This study aimed to investigate the role of hepatic LAL activity and liver-resident macrophages (i.e., Kupffer cells (KC)) in MASLD. To this end, we analyzed lipid metabolism in hepatocyte-specific (hep)Lal-/- mice and depleted KC with clodronate treatment. When fed a high-fat/high-cholesterol diet (HF/HCD), hepLal-/- mice exhibited CE accumulation and an increased number of macrophages in the liver without significantly affecting liver injury. KC were depleted upon clodronate administration, whereas infiltrating/proliferating CD68-expressing macrophages were less affected. This led to exacerbated hepatic CE accumulation and dyslipidemia, as evidenced by increased LDL-cholesterol concentrations. The results suggest that hepatic LAL-D in HF/HCD-fed mice leads to macrophage infiltration into the liver, and KC depletion further aggravates hepatic CE levels and dyslipidemia, a finding also supported by our proteomics analysis.

A Microphysiological Model of Human MASLD Reveals Paradoxical Response to Resmetirom

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a chronic disease with multiple etiologies, stemming from the interplay between local and systemic genetic, diet, and gene-environment interactions. To understand the progression of MASLD in a controlled setting, we utilized a human liver microphysiological system (MPS) to establish a physiologically relevant metabolic baseline and probe how primary human hepatocytes respond to perturbations in insulin, glucose, and free fatty acids (FFAs). Replicate liver MPS were maintained in media with either 200 pM or 800 pM insulin for up to 3 weeks alone and in combination with standard glucose (5.5 mM), hyperglycemia (11 mM glucose), normal (20µM) and elevated FFA (100 µM). Together, hyperinsulinemia along with elevated glucose and FFAs, induces the release of pro-inflammatory chemokines, accumulation of triglycerides, and predisposes hepatocytes to insulin resistance. Treatment with the thyroid receptor ß agonist resmetirom normalizes hepatic fat content and partially rescues insulin sensitivity, but paradoxically induces higher CXCL1 and IL8 expression in male and female donors. In aggregate, our enhanced in vitro MPS model establishes a metabolic baseline and perturbed condition that recapitulates a spectrum of phenotypes observed in MASLD, offering improved quantification and insight into disease progression with relevance to human physiology.
