Project description:To investigate the role of Tet2 deficient immune cells in hepatic stellate cell activation, wild type or Tet2 deficient B cells, T cells, and hepatic macrophages were isolated and co-cultured with purified hepatic stellate cells. Gene expression profiling analysis of bulk hepatic stellate cell RNA was then performed.

Project description:Background & Aims: Rapid induction of beta-PDGF receptor (beta-PDGFR) is a core feature of hepatic stellate cell activation, the hallmark of liver fibrogenesis. However, biological consequences of the induction are not well characterized. We aimed to determine the involvement of beta-PDGFR-mediated molecular pathway activation on hepatic stellate cells in liver injury, fibrogenesis, and carcinogenesis in vivo. Methods: Loss and constitutive activation of beta-PDGFR were assessed in mouse models with either a stellate cell-specific beta-PDGFR knockout or the expression of an autoactivating mutation respectively. Liver injury and fibrosis were induced in two mechanistically distinct models: carbontetrachloride (CCl4) treatment and ligation of the common bile duct. Hepatocarcinogenesis with underlying liver injury/fibrosis was assessed by a single dose of diethylnitrosamine (DEN) followed by repeated injections of CCl4. Genome-wide expression profiling was performed isolated stellate cells from these models to determine deregulated pathways. Results: Depletion of beta-PDGFR in hepatic stellate cells led to decreased histological liver injury, serum transaminases, collagen alpha 1(I) and alpha smooth muscle actin expression, and collagen deposition. Stellate cell proliferation was significantly reduced after acute hepatic injury in vivo. In contrast, autoactivation of beta-PDGFR in stellate cells accelerated liver fibrosis, most prominently after 6 weeks of CCl4 induced injury. There was no difference in development of DEN-induced pre-neoplastic loci according to the status of beta-PDGFR. Conclusions: Depletion of beta-PDGFR in hepatic stellate cells attenuated the development of liver injury, fibrosis, and stellate cell proliferation in multiple animal models, whereas the constitutive activation of beta-PDGFR enhanced fibrosis. However, manipulation of beta-PDGFR alone did not reduce development of dysplastic nodules. These findings indicate that titration of receptor beta-PDGFR expression on stellate cells parallels fibrosis and injury, but may not impact the development of hepatic neoplasia alone. Hepatic stellate cells were isolated from liver of beta-PDGFR-wild-type or knockout mice, and treated with beta-PDGF ligand or vehicle control.

Project description:Interventions: Group 1: The radioembolization in hepatic malignancies is a routine clinical procedure. Serum samples for growth factor determination from peripheral venous blood are taken at three points in time - before therapy, after the first radioembolization and before the second radioembolization.
Study procedure ends after the third blood sample has been taken.
The second therapy for SIRT and the follow-up examinations belong to the scope of routine clinical procedures/follow-up.
Primary outcome(s): Evaluation of growth hormone release as a prognostic marker for overall survival after local ablative radioembolization therapy (SIRT) of hepatic malignancies.
Study Design: Allocation: N/A: single arm study; Masking: Open (masking not used); Control: uncontrolled; Assignment: single; Study design purpose: basic science

Project description:Cell reprogramming enables dedifferentiation to generate induced pluripotent stem cells or transdifferentiation to produce desired terminally differentiated cell types. However, the concept of forced reprogramming has not been extended to converting the activation status of specialized cell types such as hepatic stellate cell (HSC) which, once activated, plays a central role in promoting liver fibrosis. We identified miR-15a as a key driver to reprogram activated HSC back toward quiescence, partly by directly targeting Wisp1, to generate what we designate as induced quiescent-like HSC (iqHSC). iqHSCs had a morphologic, transcriptional, and functional phenotype similar to that of truly quiescent HSCs. Finally, performing cell therapy with iqHSCs attenuated hepatic inflammation and fibrosis in mouse models of liver injury induced by toxin, biliary obstruction, or diet.

Project description:Advanced hepatic fibrosis, driven by the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), affects millions world-wide and is the strongest predictor of mortality in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), yet there are no approved anti-fibrotic therapies. To identify novel anti-fibrotic drug targets, we integrated progressive transcriptomic and morphological responses that accompany HSC activation in advanced disease using single nuclear RNA sequencing and tissue clearing in a robust, murine NASH model. In advanced fibrosis, an autocrine HSC signaling circuit emerges that is comprised of 68 receptor-ligand interactions conserved between murine and human NASH. These predicted interactions are supported by the parallel appearance of markedly increased direct stellate cell-cell contacts in murine NASH. As proof of principle, pharmacological inhibition of one such autocrine interaction, NTRK3-NTF3, inhibits human HSC activation in culture and reverses advanced murine NASH-fibrosis in vivo. We have uncovered a novel repertoire of previously uncharacterized anti-fibrotic drug targets underlying advanced fibrosis in vivo. The findings suggest a novel therapeutic paradigm in which stage-specific therapies could yield enhanced anti-fibrotic efficacy in patients with advanced fibrosis.

Project description:Located in the perisinusoidal space of Disse, hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) communicate with all other liver cell types by physical association and / or by producing cytokines and chemokines. In liver disease and folllowing liver transplantation, elevated levels of endotoxin (bacterial lipopolysaccharide: LPS) stimulate HSCs to produce increased amounts of cytokines and chemokines. Transcriptomic analysis of cultured HSCs stimulated with LPS yields a survey of expression changes which potentially modulate the hepatic inflammatory and immune responses. In two independent experiments, rat HSCs were cultured with or without 10 ng/ml LPS for 1h and 24h, then harvested for microarray analysis (i.e., 8 samples). In the first of these experiments, cells also were also harvested after 3, 6 and 12 hours of LPS treatment, for a total of 11 samples.

Project description:Liver fibrosis is characterized by the excessive formation and accumulation of matrix proteins as a result of wound healing in the liver. A main event during fibrogenesis is the activation of the liver resident quiescent hepatic stellate cell (qHSC). Recent studies suggest that reversion of the activated HSC (aHSC) phenotype into a quiescent-like phenotype could be a major cellular mechanism underlying fibrosis regression in the liver, thereby offering new therapeutic perspectives for the treatment of liver fibrosis. The goal of the present study is to identify experimental conditions that can revert the activated status of human HSCs and to map the molecular events associated with this phenotype reversion by gene expression profiling Transcriptomic profiling of primary human quiescent HSCs (qHSCs), in vitro activated HSCs (aHSCs) and in vitro reverted HSCs (rHSCs). The cell types come from different donors (This is detailed in the original manuscript.).
