Classifying distinct grades of human non-alcoholic fatty liver disease employing a systems biology approach

ABSTRACT: With an estimated prevalence of about 30% in western countries non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major public health issue [PMID: 18956290]. NAFLD is associated with the metabolic syndrome of insulin resistance, obesity, glucose intolerance. Although many studies are pointing to an induction of insulin resistance by NAFLD causality between both phenotypes is not fully clarified. Furthermore, mechanisms leading to strongly differing progression of NAFLD have to be elucidated which range from mild steatosis up to severe steatohepatitis. Steatohepatitis might even result in liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Additional complexity is introduced into the understanding of the disease by recent studies providing evidence for a direct development of carcinoma from steatosis without the formerly assumed intermediary phase of cirrhosis. Here, we investigate liver samples from patients with varying severities of steatosis in an integrative approach employing transcriptomics, serum biomarker profling, metabolomics data and systems biology models.

circRNA expression profiles of fibroblasts: normal vs. NASH cirrhosis

Project description:The progression from steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients is one of the major causes of liver-related death worldwide and have limited effective therapies. We comparing the circular RNomics of liver fibroblasts isolated from patients with NAFLD-caused cirrhosis and the ones without NAFLD.

Expression data for Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease patients

Project description:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease represents a spectrum of pathology that ranges from benign steatosis to potentially-progressive steatohepatitis and affects more than 30% of US adults. Advanced NAFLD is associated with increased morbidity and mortality from cirrhosis, primary liver cancer, cardiovascular disease and extrahepatic cancers. Accurate identification of patients at risk for advanced NAFLD is challenging. The aims of this study were to define the liver gene expression patterns that distinguish mild from advanced NAFLD and to develop a gene expression profile associated with advanced NAFLD. We analyzed total RNA from 72 patients with NAFLD (40 with mild NAFLD, fibrosis stage 0-1 and 32 with advanced NAFLD, fibrosis stage 3-4) and developed a gene profile associated with advanced NAFLD. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Post-transplant (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) NASH compared with transplanted normal controls

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) encompasses a spectrum of disease that ranges from simple steatosis, to inflammatory form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and up to hepatocellular carcinoma. While NASH usually takes decades to develop at a rate of one stage per seven years, in the case of post-trasplant NASH (pt-NASH) develops fibrosis much more rapidly, with almost 50% of liver transplant recipients presenting stage 3 fibrosis by 5 years post-transplant. Archived fresh-frozen transplanted liver biopsy samples from four liver biopsy samples with evidence of NASH (2 recurrent and 2 de novo), two with simple steatosis (both de novo), and five with normal histology as controls had their transcriptome sequenced in two batches for deeper coverage.

Expression data from human non-alcoholic fatty liver disease stages

Project description:Global gene expression patterns of 2 human steatosis and 9 human non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) together with their respective control patterns were analyzed to define the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) progression molecular characteristics and to define NASH early markers from steatosis. Human liver samples of steatosis and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Whole transcriptome profiling of Japanese nonalcoholic fatty liver disease cohort.

Project description:Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a severe form of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) that is characterized by hepatic steatosis, inflammation, hepatocellular injury, and fibrosis, which lead to progressed cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Despite its increasing prevalence on a global scale, the pathogenesis of NASH progression is not well understood. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms of NASH progression, we conducted transcriptome analyses of Japanese NAFLD cohort in our facility.

Gene expression in liver of morbidly obese patients

Project description:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common cause of liver disease affecting 20-30% of the population in developed countries. NAFLD is strongly associated with abdominal obesity and is recognized as the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome. In a subgroup of patients with NAFLD inflammation and fibrosis develops, this so-called Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) may progress to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. A multi-hit hypothesis has been proposed in which during the first “hit” fat accumulation occurs in hepatocytes from excessive delivery of fatty acids from adipose tissue, in addition there is an imbalance in lipid synthesis and export. However, the reason why fat accumulation is subsequently followed by inflammation and fibrosis in some patients is poorly understood. We studied the role of gene expression at the transcriptional level using microarray in bariatric patients from whom the liver histology was available. Patients scheduled for bariatric surgery were recruited in Pretoria/South-Africa. At the time of the procedure, tissue samples of the visceral and subcutaneous fat were taken for molecular analysis as well as liver tissue for histology, also full biochemical data was collected. Patients were grouped according histology: group I (<5% steatosis), group II (NAFLD, 30-50% steatosis) and group III (NASH). The 15 samples were used for microarray (nr patients respectively for stages I-II-III: 6-4-5).This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Microarray analysis of choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined (CDAA) diet-induced NAFLD animal model.

Project description:Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a broad spectrum of liver disorders ranging from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined (CDAA) diet-induced NAFLD animal model has traditionally been used to understand the molecular mechanisms of disease development and progression. Although this animal model shows a similar course of disease progression to human NAFLD, it does not develop comorbidities such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. Therefore, its relevance to human NAFLD (what aspects of the disease etiology are recapitulated in this model?) is not fully understood. We applied microarray analysis to characterize its pathophysiology, and evaluate the similarity across species.

Hepatocyte Deletion of Triglyceride-Synthesis Enzyme DGAT2 Reduces Steatosis without Increasing Inflammation or Fibrosis

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by excess lipid accumulation in hepatocytes and reprepresents a huge public health problem owing to its propensity to progress to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), fibrosis, and liver failure. The lipids stored in hepatic steatosis are primarily triglycerides (TGs) synthesized by two acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) enzymes. Either DGAT1 or DGAT2 catalyzes this reaction, and these enzymes have been suggested to differentially utilize exogenous or endogenously synthesized fatty acids, with DGAT2 being linked to storage of fatty acids from de novo lipogenesis, a process that is increased in NAFLD. However, whether DGAT2 is more responsible for lipid accumulation in NAFLD and the progression to fibrosis is currently unknown. Also, it is unresolved whether DGAT2 can be safely inhibited as a therapy for NAFLD. Here we induced NAFLD-like disease in mice by feeding a diet rich in fructose, saturated fat, and cholesterol and found that hepatocyte-specfici Dgat2 deficiency reduced expression of de novo lipogenesis genes and lowered liver TGs by ~70%. Importantly, the reduction of steatosis was not accompanied by increased inflammation or fibrosis, and insulin and glucose metabolism were unchanged. Conclusion: This study suggests that hepatic DGAT2 deficiency successfully reduced diet-induced hepatic steatosis and supports the development of DGAT2 inhibitors as a therapeutic strategy for treating NAFLD and preventing downstream consequences.
