Regulation of antibacterial defense in the small intestine by the nuclear bile acid receptor

ABSTRACT: Decreased bile secretion in rodents by either ligation of the common bile duct or induction of cirrhosis causes changes in the small intestine, including bacterial overgrowth and translocation across the mucosal barrier. Oral administration of bile acids inhibits these effects. The genes regulated by FXR in ileum suggested that it might contribute to the enteroprotective actions of bile acids. To test this hypothesis, mice were administered either GW4064 or vehicle for 2 days and then subjected to bile duct ligation (BDL) or sham operation. After 5 days, during which GW4064 or vehicle treatment was continued, the mice were killed and their intestines were analyzed for FXR target gene expression.

Mice were treated with or without FXR ligand GW4064 for 2 days prior to bile duct ligation surgery and for 5 days after surgery. After 5 days the mice were sacrificed and the ileum collected and processed for gene expression analysis. Gene expression in the ilium from each sample group was assayed in duplicate using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Gene Chips.

Microarray analysis of FXR-regulated genes in murine small intestine.

Project description:Obstruction of bile flow results in bacterial proliferation and mucosal injury in the small intestine that can lead to the translocation of bacteria across the epithelial barrier and systemic infection. These adverse effects of biliary obstruction can be inhibited by administration of bile acids. Here we show that the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor for bile acids, induces genes involved in enteroprotection and inhibits bacterial overgrowth and mucosal injury in ileum caused by bile duct ligation. Mice lacking FXR have increased ileal levels of bacteria and a compromised epithelial barrier. These findings reveal a central role for FXR in protecting the distal small intestine from bacterial invasion and suggest that FXR agonists may prevent epithelial deterioration and bacterial translocation in patients with impaired bile flow. In this report we have examined the role of FXR in the ileum. We demonstrate that it plays a crucial role in preventing bacterial overgrowth and maintaining the integrity of the intestinal epithelium

A time-course study of bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced liver fibrosis in rats

Project description:The aim is to characterize rat liver fibrosis induced by bile duct ligation (BDL). To induce hepatic fibrosis, Male Sprague Dawley rats (9-12 weeks of age and 380-420 g of weight upon arrival, supplied by Beijing Vital River laboratory animal Co., Ltd.) underwent surgery of bile duct ligation (BDL). The bile ducts of Sprague-Dawley rats were ligated after 12 hours of fasting and water deprivation. Rat liver samples were collected from three groups of rats at week 1, 2 and 5 after BDL surgery. Three control groups of rats underwent sham operation, including bile duct mobilization, but without BDL. Three biological replicates were used for each group.

Obstructive cholestasis compromises balance and alters brain lipid composition in neonatal piglets

Project description:Infants with neonatal cholestasis are prone to neurodevelopmental deficits including neuromotor function. Accumulation of potentially neurotoxic molecules in the bloodstream including ammonia and bile acids and malabsorption of lipids may affect neurodevelopment in these patients. This study examined neuromotor function and bile acid and lipid composition of the brain in a piglet model of obstructive neonatal cholestasis via bile duct ligation (BDL) surgery. Results showed that BDL piglets had compromised balance and increased liver enzyme levels, liver fibrosis and bile duct proliferation compared to SHAM piglets. Plasma and cerebellum bile acid profiles differed between BDL and SHAM piglets with hyocholic acid and conjugated bile acid forms dominating in the BDL group. In the cerebellum there were different lipid profiles, but similar gene expression profiles between the two groups.

Altered mRNA expression profile of GW4064 treated mouse livers compared to vehicle control

Project description:Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a ligand activated nuclear receptor belonging to the nuclear receptor superfamily. Bile acids (BAs) are the endogenous ligand for FXR. FXR is a master regulator of BA homestasis, including BA synthesis, metabolism, transport, and enterohepatic circulation of BAs. Besides, FXR is involved in regulating diverse physioligical function in both humans and mice. GW4064 is a synthetic FXR agonist which selectively activates FXR and induce the transcription of FXR target genes. In this study, we treated wild type C57BL/6J mice with GW4064 at 100mg per kg body weight or vehicle control. Mice were treated three times, first dose at 8 am, second dose at 6 pm, third dose at 8 am the second day. Mice were sacrificed 2 hours after the last dose, and liver tissues were harvested for analysis. Animal protocols and procedures were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) at the University of Kansas Medical Center. Total RNA from livers was prepared with TRIzol Reagent (Invitrogen, CA), and the whole transcription expression levels were determined using Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array system manufactured by Affymetrix, Inc..

Single Cell Sequencing of a Novel Model of Neonatal Bile Duct Ligation in Mice Identifies Etiology-Specific Macrophage Function Compared to Murine Biliary Atresia

Project description:Background & Aims: Macrophages (MF) play a role in neonatal etiologies of obstructive cholestasis, however, the role for precise MF subsets remains poorly defined. We developed a neonatal murine model of bile duct ligation (BDL) to characterize etiology-specific differences in neonatal cholestatic MF polarization. Approach & Results: Neonatal BDL surgery was performed on female BALB/c mice at 10 days of life (DOL) with sham laparotomy as controls. Comparison was made to the Rhesus Rotavirus (RRV)-induced murine model of biliary atresia (BA). Evaluation of changes at day 7 after surgery (BDL and sham groups) and murine BA (DOL14) included laboratory data, histology (H&E, anti-CD45 and anti-CK19 staining), flow cytometry of MF subsets by MHCII and Ly6c expression, and single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis. Neonatal BDL achieved a 90% survival rate; mice had elevated bile acids, bilirubin, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) versus controls (p < 0.05 for all). Histology demonstrated hepatocellular injury, CD45+ portal infiltrate, and CK19+ bile duct proliferation in neonatal BDL. Comparison to murine BA showed increased ALT in neonatal BDL despite no difference in histology Ishak score. Neonatal BDL had significantly lower MHCII-Ly6c+ MF versus murine BA, however, scRNA-seq identified greater etiology-specific MF heterogeneity with increased endocytosis in neonatal BDL MF versus cellular killing in murine BA MF. Conclusions: We generated an innovative murine model of neonatal obstructive cholestasis with low mortality. This model enabled comparison to murine BA to define etiology-specific cholestatic MF function. Further comparisons to human data may enable development of immune modulatory therapies to improve patient outcomes.

Pioneer factor Foxa2 mediates chromatin conformation changes in ligand-dependent activation of nuclear receptor FXR

Project description:Activation of nuclear receptors, a family of ligand-dependent transcription factors, is used extensively in development of drug targets. We have previously shown that pioneer factor Foxa2 opens chromatin for binding of nuclear receptors FXR and LXRα during acute ligand activation. FXR is activated by bile acids and deletion of Foxa2 in the liver results in intrahepatic cholestasis. We hypothesized that Foxa2 also enables chromatin conformational changes during ligand activation. We performed Foxa2 HiChIP to assess Foxa2-dependent long-range interactions in mouse livers treated with either vehicle control or FXR agonist GW4064. HiChIP contact analysis shows that global chromatin interactions are dramatically increased during FXR activation. Ligand-treated livers exhibit extensive redistribution of topological associated domains (TAD) and substantial increase in Foxa2-anchored loops, suggesting Foxa2 is involved in dynamic chromatin conformational changes. We demonstrate that chromatin conformation, including genome-wide interactions, TADs, intra-chromosomal and inter-chromosomal Foxa2-anchored loops, drastically changes upon addition of FXR agonist. Hence, we determine a novel role for Foxa2 in enabling these conformational changes, extending its function in bile acid metabolism.

MCRS1 is a histone acetylation regulator whose loss in hepatocytes promotes cirrhosis

Project description:Cirrhosis is a late stage of fibrosis that fatally impairs liver function. Unfortunately, genetic animal models mimicking human cirrhosis are lacking and the molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Here we report the first murine genetic model recapitulating clinical features of cirrhosis, which are induced by hepatocyte-specific elimination of microspherule protein 1 (MCRS1), a member of the non-specific lethal (NSL) and INO80 chromatin modifier complexes. Deregulation of bile acid (BA) transporter expression, revealed by proteomic analysis of MCRS1-depleted mouse livers, with pronounced downregulation of the Na+-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP), causes BA accumulation in liver sinusoids. Genetic ablation of the BA receptor FXR in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) suppresses bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced fibrosis in mice. Moreover, in vitro experiments demonstrate that fibrotic marker expression is reduced in FXR-depleted HSCs cultured in conditioned medium containing high BAs from MCRS1-depleted hepatocytes. Additionally, hepatocytic MCRS1 overexpression increases their NTCP levels, and consequently protects mice against BDL-induced liver fibrosis. Deletion of a putative SANT domain in MCRS1, also revealed by protein sequence analysis and essential for histone H3 (H3) binding, disrupts H3/HDAC1 complex formation. This evicts MCRS1 and HDAC1 from their H3 anchoring sites and increases histone lysine acetylation of BA transporter genes, independently of the NSL or INO80 complexes. Taken together, our data reveal a previously unrecognized function of MCRS1 as a novel histone acetylation regulator that binds to H3, and recruits a novel chromatin-modifying complex that maintains gene expression homeostasis and liver health. Accordingly, loss of nuclear MCRS1 correlates with increased histone acetylation in human cirrhosis samples. Regulation of histone acetylation might thus be central to cirrhotic development.
