Project description:Hepatocyte transplantation has shown promise for genetic diseases but has mixed efficacy for acute and severe liver injury. Limited cell engraftment and poor function of donor hepatocytes in recipient liver are significant hurdles for clinical efficacy. Hepatocyte senescence is a key feature of many liver diseases. Senescence-driven liver injury could be induced in Ahcre+Mdm2fl/fl mice in controlled and predictable levels through excision of hepatocyte Mdm2. Host senescence and injury was a requirement for initial donor hepatocyte engraftment and repopulation, but too much was inhibitory to this. Long-term expansion of transplanted hepatocytes improved histological features of injury and liver function. However graft function could spontaneously decline due to transmission of senescence from host to donor cells. Modification of the host niche prior to transplantation with senotherapeutic drug ABT737 improved donor cell proliferative capacity. Targeting paracrine senescence may be a way to improve donor hepatocyte function, optimise therapy and guide translation into the clinics.

Project description:Induction of hepatocyte senescence is known to inhibit hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Until now, it has not been clear how the degree of liver injury dictates hepatocyte senescence and carcinogenesis. In this study, we investigated whether the severity of injury determines cell fate decisions between hepatocyte senescence and carcinogenesis. After testing of different degrees of liver injury, we found that hepatocyte senescence is strongly induced in the setting of severe acute liver injury. Longer-term, moderate liver injury did not result into hepatocyte senescence, but instead led to a significant incidence of HCC. In addition, carcinogenesis was significantly reduced by the induction of severe acute injury after chronic moderate liver injury. We conclude that severe acute liver injury leads to hepatocyte senescence along with a low incidence of HCC, whereas chronic moderate injury allows hepatocytes to proliferate rather than to enter into senescence, and correlates with a high incidence of HCC. This study improves our understanding in hepatocyte cell fate decisions and suggests a potential clinical strategy to induce senescence to treat HCC.

Project description:While demonstrated safety and efficacy in treating liver diseases, hepatocyte-based therapy faces the challenge of limited engraftment of transplanted hepatocytes (Tx-Heps) in clinical settings, akin to issues encountered in cell therapy for other solid organs. Here, we identified a conserved reprogramming state of Tx-Heps during engraftment, marked by the activation of liver progenitor genes and bipotential differentiation capacity. Transplantation reprogramming of Tx-Heps is crucial for successful engraftment, as proven by transplantation failure upon hepatocyte-specific ablation of Arid1a, which is required for Tx-Hep reprogramming. To validate translational potential, we artificially induced Tx-Hep reprogramming by in vivo treatment of either IL6 or IC7, a chimeric IL6 family protein, both of which significantly enhance hepatocyte engraftment. Our findings unveil early-stage cell fate reprogramming during transplantation and also propose a promising strategy to augment hepatocyte engraftment, which is an interesting framework to be studied in cell transplantation for other solid organs.

Project description:Background & Aims: Alcohol-associated hepatitis (AH) is an acute form of alcohol-related liver disease (ArLD) with high mortality rate. AH is histologically characterised by cellular processes including steatosis, inflammation and cell death. Apoptosis is the most studied form of cell death in AH; however, the role of cellular senescence, another response to cellular injury, in AH is unknown. Here we aim to explore the mechanisms of ArLD pathophysiology and define the role of senescence in AH. Methods: We performed RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of transjugular liver biopsies (n=65) from AH patients participating in the ISAIAH clinical trial. We also carried out multiomic analysis of an in vitro hepatocyte model of AH. We also performed additional bioinformatics reanalysis of existing AH transcriptomic datasets. Results: Senescence markers and pathways are increasingly expressed in hepatocytes as ArLD progresses towards AH. We find dysregulation of senescence, inflammation and hepatocyte function is reversed at transcriptomic level following AH resolution. We identify dysregulation of two senescence-associated protein complexes, cytochrome c oxidase and the proteasome, which may act as senescence-induction mechanisms. Our in vitro model reveals senescence induction is a direct effect of ethanol on hepatocytes. Conclusions: Our results show a central role for senescence in AH and suggest senolytics as potential therapeutics in early ALD to limit AH severity.

Project description:We used microarrays to identify a transcriptional signature of oxidative stress induced senescence in a hepatocyte cell line (HepG2) by globally assessing differential gene expression after treatment with 0.5mM of H2O2 for 60 minutes, compared to nontreated cells as a control. We performed genome-wide comparison of gene expression and identified genes that are differentially expressed in senescent HepG2 cells relative to untreated cells, 4 biological replicates per condition

Project description:Cellular senescence is associated with aging but also impacts various physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development and wound healing. Factors secreted by senescent cells can affect their microenvironment, including local spreading of senescence. Acute severe liver disease is associated with hepatocyte senescence and frequently progresses to multi-organ failure. Why the latter occurs is poorly understood however, the presence of hepatic senescence is associated with poor prognosis and extrahepatic organ failure in acute liver disease. Here, using genetic mouse models of hepatocyte-specific senescence, we demonstrate senescence development in extrahepatic organs and associated organ dysfunction in response to liver senescence. In patients with acute indeterminate hepatitis, the extent of hepatocellular senescence predicts the occurrence of extrahepatic dysfunction, need for liver transplantation and mortality. We identify the Transforming Growth Factor β (TGFβ) pathway as a critical mediator of systemic spread of senescence and TGFβ inhibition blocks senescence transmission to other organs preventing renal dysfunction. Our results highlight the systemic consequences of organ-specific senescence which, independent of aging, contributes to multi-organ dysfunction.

Project description:Acute Pten loss initiates prostate tumorigenesis characterized by cellular senescence response. Here we examine the cellular senescence response in epithelial individual cells, by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) in Ptenpc-/- and Ptenpc-/-; Timp1-/- GEMMs. ScRNAseq analysis determines a cluster of senescent cells expressing the senescence-related genes. A significant positive correlation is observed between the senescence score and Bcl2 expression. This provides the rational for targeting senescent cells using Bcl2 inhibitor.
