Prognostic Liver Signature profiles of Jc1-infected Huh7.5.1dif cells treated with various drugs

ABSTRACT: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide, indicating urgent need for preventive strategies. Cancer chemoprevention discovery is challenged by the absence of tractable and clinically relevant human model systems and the complex cell circuits supporting carcinogenesis. Here, we developed a simple and robust human liver cell-based system in which persistent hepatitis B/C virus infection or ethanol induce an HCC risk signature robustly predicting long-term HCC risk in cirrhotic patients. Using a computationally enriched small molecule cell-based screen followed by ex/in vivo validation in human liver tissues and animal models, we identified captopril as an HCC chemopreventive agent that antagonizes the EGF/EGFR pathway, a key driver of liver disease and hepatocarcinogenesis. Our system, modeling the cell circuits encoded in the clinical HCC risk signature, enables fast-track cancer chemoprevention discovery and provides an urgently needed approach for improving the dismal prognosis of patients at risk of HCC.

High-throughput single-cell RNA-Seq profiling of DMSO-differentiated Huh7.5.1 undergoing or not long-term HCV infection

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer death worldwide, indicating urgent need for novel preventive strategies. Cancer chemoprevention discovery has been challenging due to the absence of tractable and clinically relevant model systems. Here, we developed a simple and robust human liver cell-based system, in which persistent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection induces a HCC risk signature robustly predicting long-term HCC risk in cirrhotic patients. Using single-cell RNA-Seq analysis we observed a virus-dependent induction of the HCC high-risk gene signature and EGFR/MAPK signaling in HCV-infected liver cells. Our system, modeling the cell circuits encoded in the clinical HCC risk signature, enables investigation of the mechanisms of hepatocarcinogenesis and the discovery of cancer preventive strategies for HCC.

Captopril treatment in rats with DEN-induced cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Liver cirrhosis is well-established risk factor of HCC development, although prevention of HCC in cirrhosis patients is challenging. By utilizing bioinformatic compound screening based on a clinical HCC-risk-predicitve gene signature, we identified captopril as a potential HCC chemoprevention agent. We tested the drug in rats with diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced cirrhosis and HCC, and confirmed its HCC-preventive effect.

Gene expression profiles of differentiated Huh7.5.1 cells infected with HCV Jc1 clone

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the second leading cause of cancer death. Curative approaches are limited and chemoprevention is not available. A 186-gene signature in liver tissue predicts HCC risk in cirrhotic patients of various etiologies. However, the drivers of the HCC risk gene signature remain to be fully elucidated. Here, we develop a simple and robust liver cell-based system in which persistent hepatitis B and C virus infection or ethanol exposure induce this signature. We identified candidate drivers of the HCC high-risk signature and hepatocarcinogenesis and uncovered reversal of the signature by an EGFR inhibitor and pioglitazone, a computationally predicted inhibitory compound. This cell-based model unravels the cell circuits of liver disease progression and identifies HCC chemoprevention targets for clinical evaluation.

Transcriptome profiles of cirrhotic liver treated with lysophosphatidic acid pathway inhibitors

Project description:Cirrhosis is a milieu that develops hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the second most lethal cancer worldwide. HCC prediction and prevention in cirrhosis are key unmet medical needs. Here we have established an HCC risk gene signature applicable to all major HCC etiologies: hepatitis B/C, alcohol, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis. A transcriptome meta-analysis of >500 human cirrhotics revealed global regulatory gene modules driving HCC risk and lysophosphatidic acid pathway as a central chemoprevention target. Pharmacological inhibition of the pathway in vivo reduced tumors and reversed the gene signature, which was verified in organotypic ex vivo culture of patient-derived fibrotic liver tissues. These results demonstrate the utility of clinical organ transcriptome to enable a strategy, reverse-engineering precision cancer prevention.

A human liver cell-based system modeling a clinical prognostic liver signature combined with single-cell RNA-Seq for discovery of liver disease therapeutics

Project description:Abstract: Chronic liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are life-threatening with limited treatment options. The lack of clinically relevant/tractable experimental models hampers therapeutic discovery. We developed a simple and robust human liver cell-based system modeling a clinical prognostic liver signature (PLS) predicting long-term liver disease progression toward HCC. Using the PLS as a readout, followed by validation in NASH-HCC animal models and patient-derived tumorspheroids, we identified nizatidine, a histamine receptor H2 (HRH2) blocker, for treatment of advanced liver disease and HCC chemoprevention. Perturbation studies combined with scRNA-Seq analyses of patient liver tissues uncovered HRH2+, CLEC5Ahigh, MARCOlow liver macrophages and hepatocytes as nizatidine targets. The PLS model combined with scRNA-Seq of patient tissues enables discovery of urgently needed targets and therapeutics for treatment of advanced liver disease and cancer prevention.

Prognostic Liver Signature for NAFLD (PLS-NAFLD) profiles of cell-based PLS system treated with free fatty acids (FFA) and IDO1 inhibitor, epacadostat.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), alongside the global obesity epidemic, is rapidly emerging as a dominant liver disease etiology that leads to progressive liver fibrosis, its terminal stage, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We identified and validated a 133-gene signature (Prognostic Liver Signature for NAFLD [PLS-NAFLD]) to predict long-term HCC risk in patients with NAFLD. By analyzing PLS-NAFLD, IDO1 was identified as a potenial chemopreventive target for HCC from NAFLD. To test this hypothesis, we utilized our clinical-prognostic-signature-inducible cell culture model. We first confirmed that free fatty acid treatment (800 μM oleic acid and 400 μM palmitic acid) can induce PLS-NAFLD, then IDO1 inhibitor, epacadostat, can reverse the high-risk pattern in a dose-dependent manner.

Gene expression profile of liver tissue in low-dose, repeated diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-treated rat treated with erlotinib

Project description:Gene-expression profiles of rat liver cirrhosis induced by diethylnitrosamine and the effect of erlotinib on liver fibrogenesis and liver cancer development Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common solid tumor worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer-related death. Given the lack of successful treatment options, chemoprevention in high-risk patients has been proposed as an alternative strategy. Mounting evidence supports a role for epidermal growth factor (EGF) during chronic liver disease and hepatocellular transformation. We address the hypothesis that blocking the EGF-EGF receptor (EGFR) pathway may be an effective strategy for inhibiting fibrogenesis and hepatocarcinogenesis. A rat model of diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced cirrhosis was used to examine the effects of erlotinib on underlying chronic liver disease and HCC formation. The DEN-induced rat model closely resembles disease progression in humans both pathologically and molecularly. Erlotinib significantly prevented the development of HCC tumor nodules in a dose-dependent fashion. Further, erlotinib inhibited the activation of hepatic stellate cells and prevented fibrogenesis. Erlotinib also reduced hepatotoxicity and improved liver function. Finally, a gene expression signature predictive of poor survival in human cirrhosis patients was reversed in response to erlotinib. Our data demonstrate for the first time that EGFR inhibition prevents liver fibrogenesis. Further, our results suggest that erlotinib is a potentially effective HCC chemoprevention strategy through inhibition of cirrhosis progression which can be monitored at the molecular level.
