Profiling of the circadian metabolome in thioacetamide-induced liver cirrhosis in mice.

ABSTRACT: Liver cirrhosis can disturb circadian rhythms, decreasing patient quality of life. Changes in metabolic products in cirrhosis are poorly understood. We evaluated changes in liver metabolism products using a thioacetamide-induced mouse model of liver cirrhosis exhibiting circadian rhythm disturbance. Principal component analysis indicated that the circular progression found in the control group was disrupted in the thioacetamide group, and Jonckheere-Terpstra-Kendall analysis showed an imbalanced pattern of oscillating metabolic products. In addition to changes in serotonin and other vitamin A-related metabolites, differences in metabolic products associated with energetics, redox homeostasis, bile acid production, inflammation, and other processes were identified. Carbohydrate metabolism showed a reduction in metabolic products associated with the tricarboxylic acid cycle, suggesting up-regulation of glycolysis and reduced mitochondrial activity. Lipid metabolism showed an increase in ?-oxidation products, suggesting decreased ?-oxidation. Conclusion: These data will be useful for chronotherapy and modulation of circadian rhythms in patients with liver damage. (Hepatology Communications 2017;1:704-718).

Project description:This study investigated the hepatoprotective effects of ethanolic Andrographis paniculata leaf extract (ELAP) on thioacetamide-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. An acute toxicity study proved that ELAP is not toxic in rats. To examine the effects of ELAP in vivo, male Sprague Dawley rats were given intraperitoneal injections of vehicle 10% Tween-20, 5 mL/kg (normal control) or 200 mg/kg TAA thioacetamide (to induce liver cirrhosis) three times per week. Three additional groups were treated with thioacetamide plus daily oral silymarin (50 mg/kg) or ELAP (250 or 500 mg/kg). Liver injury was assessed using biochemical tests, macroscopic and microscopic tissue analysis, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry. In addition, HepG2 and WRL-68 cells were treated in vitro with ELAP fractions to test cytotoxicity. Rats treated with ELAP exhibited significantly lower liver/body weight ratios and smoother, more normal liver surfaces compared with the cirrhosis group. Histopathology using Hematoxylin and Eosin along with Masson's Trichrome stain showed minimal disruption of hepatic cellular structure, minor fibrotic septa, a low degree of lymphocyte infiltration, and minimal collagen deposition after ELAP treatment. Immunohistochemistry indicated that ELAP induced down regulation of proliferating cell nuclear antigen. Also, hepatic antioxidant enzymes and oxidative stress parameters in ELAP-treated rats were comparable to silymarin-treated rats. ELAP administration reduced levels of altered serum liver biomarkers. ELAP fractions were non-cytotoxic to WRL-68 cells, but possessed anti-proliferative activity on HepG2 cells, which was confirmed by a significant elevation of lactate dehydrogenase, reactive oxygen species, cell membrane permeability, cytochrome c, and caspase-8,-9, and, -3/7 activity in HepG2 cells. A reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential was also detected in ELAP-treated HepG2 cells. The hepatoprotective effect of 500 mg/kg of ELAP is proposed to result from the reduction of thioacetamide-induced toxicity, normalizing reactive oxygen species levels, inhibiting cellular proliferation, and inducing apoptosis in HepG2 cells.
