Identification and functional characterisation of a rare MTTP variant underlying familial non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

ABSTRACT: We identified a rare causal variant in MTTP, c.1691T>C p.I564T (rs745447480) encoding microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) causing progressive non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma unrelated to metabolic syndrome, without manifestations of abetalipoproteinemia, in a four generation family with South Asian ancestry. Variant-expressing hepatocyte-like-cells (HLCs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells generated from homozygous donor skin fibroblasts had lower lipoprotein ApoB secretion, compared to wild type cells. Cytoplasmic triglyceride accumulation in HLCs triggered endoplasmic reticulum stress, secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators, production of reactive oxygen species, delineating the progression of disease associated with homozygosity for MTTP p.I564T

Hepatic loss of Lis1 leads to fatty liver and predisposes to tumorigenesis in mice

Project description:We found that genetic deletion of Lis1 (also known as Pafah1b1) in mouse liver led to increased lipid accumulation and inflammation in the liver. Further analysis revealed that loss of Lis1 led to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and reduced triglyceride secretion. Attenuation of ER stress by tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) diminished lipid accumulation in the Lis1 defecient hepatocytes. In addition, Golgi was disorganized in Lis1 deficient livers. These mutants exhibited increased hepatocyte ploidy and accelerated development of liver cancer when treated with DEN. Taken together, these findings suggest that Lis1 is involved in the development and progression of liver diseases from steatosis to liver cancer and provide a useful model for delineating the molecular pathways that lead to these diseases.

LOXL2 drives epithelial-mesenchymal transition via activation of IRE1-XBP1 branch of unfolded protein response.

Project description:Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is a key process contributing to the aggressiveness of cancer cells. EMT is triggered by activation of different transcription factors collectively known as EMT-TFs. Different cellular cues and cell signalling networks activate EMT at transcriptional and posttranscriptional level in different biological and pathological situations. Among them, overexpression of LOXL2 (lysyl oxidase-like 2) induces EMT independent of its catalytic activity. Remarkably, perinuclear/cytoplasmic accumulation of LOXL2 is a poor prognosis marker of squamous cell carcinomas and is associated to basal breast cancer metastasis by mechanisms no yet fully understood. Here, we report that overexpression of LOXL2 promotes its accumulation in the Endoplasmic Reticulum where it interacts with HSPA5 leading to activation of the IRE1-XBP1-branch of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). LOXL2-dependent UPR activation induces the expression of several EMT-TFs: SNAI1, SNAI2, ZEB2 and TCF3 that are direct transcriptional targets of XBP1. Remarkably, inhibition of IRE1 blocks LOXL2-dependent upregulation of EMT-TFs thus hindering EMT induction. LOXL2 relationship to Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid ameliorates renal injury induced by COL4A3 mutation

Project description:COL4A3/A4/A5 mutations have been identified as critical causes of Alport syndrome and other genetic chronic kidney diseases. However, the underlying pathogenesis remains unclear, and specific treatments are lacking. Here, we constructed a transgenic Alport syndrome mouse model by generating a mutation (Col4a3 p.G799R) identified previously from one large Alport syndrome family into mice. We observed that the mutation caused a pathological decrease in intracellular and secreted collagen IV α3α4α5 heterotrimers. The mutant collagen IV α3 chains abnormally accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum and exhibited defective secretion, leading to persistent endoplasmic reticulum stress in vivo and in vitro. RNA-seq analysis revealed that the MyD88/p38 MAPK pathway plays key roles in mediating subsequent inflammation and apoptosis signaling activation. Treatment with tauroursodeoxycholic acid, a chemical chaperone drug that functions as an endoplasmic reticulum stress inhibitor, effectively suppressed endoplasmic reticulum stress, promoted secretion of the α3 chains, and inhibited the activation of the MyD88/p38 MAPK pathway. Tauroursodeoxycholic acid treatment significantly improved renal function in vivo. These results partly clarified the pathogenesis of renal injuries associated with Alport syndrome, especially in glomeruli, and suggested that tauroursodeoxycholic acid might be useful for the early clinical treatment of Alport syndrome.

RNA-Seq profiling of ERCC1-XPF DNA repair defect (Er1F/-) versus wild type (Er1F/+) macrophages

Project description:DNA damage and metabolic disorders are intimately linked with premature disease onset but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Persistent DNA damage accumulation in tissue-infiltrating macrophages carrying an ERCC1-XPF DNA repair defect (Er1F/-) riggers Golgi dispersal, dilation of endoplasmic reticulum, autophagy and exosome biogenesis leading to the secretion of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in vivo and ex vivo.

RNA-seq of hepatocytes obtained through step-wise differentiation of hIPSCs from a patient with A1AT deficiency and its point mutation-corrected isogenic hIPSC line. Comparison to primary hepatocytes from a healthy donor and an A1AT-deficient patient.

Project description:A1AT deficiency is an autosomal not recessive disorder caused by mutations in the SERPINA1 gene. Individuals with the Z variant retain polymerised protein in the endoplasmic reticulum of hepatocytes, predisposing them to liver disease. This study primarily aimed to uncover the molecular mechanisms that link protein misfolding to liver injury. To that end, RNA was extracted from hepatocytes differentiated from hIPSCs carrying the Z variant and mutation-corrected hIPSCs (control). The second objective of the study was to benchmark the gene expression profile of both hIPSC-derived hepatocytes types to primary hepatocytes of wild type and a Z variant A1AT genotype.

Evidence of mechanism how rs7575840 influences apolipoprotein B containing lipid particles

Project description:Objective: Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified a variant rs7575840 in the apolipoprotein B (APOB) gene region to be associated with LDL-C. However, the underlying functional mechanism of this variant that resides 6.5 kb upstream of APOB has remained unknown. Our objective was to investigate rs7575840 for association with refined apoB containing lipid particles; for replication in a non-Caucasian Mexican population; and for underlying functional mechanism. Methods and Results Our data show that rs7575840 is associated with serum apoB levels (P=4.85x10-10) and apoB containing lipid particles, very small VLDL, IDL and LDL particles (P=2x10-5 - 9x10-7) in the Finnish METSIM study sample (n=7,710). Fine mapping of the APOB region using 43 SNPs replicated the association of rs7575840 with apoB in a Mexican study sample (n=2,666, P=3.33x10-05). Furthermore, our transcript analyses of adipose RNA samples from 175 Finnish METSIM subjects indicate that rs7575840 alters expression of APOB (P=1.13x10-10) and a regional non-coding RNA (BU630349) (P=7.86x10-6) in adipose tissue. Conclusions It has been difficult to convert GWAS associations into mechanistic insights. Our data show that rs7575840 is associated with serum apoB levels and apoB containing lipid particles as well as influences expression of APOB and a regional transcript BU630349 in adipose tissue. We thus provide evidence how a common genome-wide significant SNP rs7575840 may affect serum apoB, LDL-C, and TC levels. 175 samples, no replicates

Proteomic Analysis of ACE2-Interacting Proteins During ER-to-PM Trafficking

Project description:Using the RUSH (Retention Using Selective Hooks) method to study the secretion process of ACE2 from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane, we transfected plasmids into cells and initiated secretion with biotin. ACE2 was released from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane. We collected samples every 5 minutes within a 45-minute period, using cells without plasmid transfection as a control. We then employed Flag pull-down assays followed by mass spectrometry to identify the interacting proteins of ACE2 during this process.

XBP1s-Mediated Endoplasmic Reticulum Proteostasis Network Enhancement Can Selectively Improve Folding and Secretion of an Osteogenesis Imperfecta-Causing Collagen-I Variant

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is most commonly caused by autosomal dominant mutations in genes encoding collagen type-I. Here, we test the hypothesis that modulation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis network via the unfolded protein response (UPR) can improve the folding and secretion of the lethal osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)-causing G425S a1(I) variant. We show that specific induction of the UPR’s XBP1s transcriptional response enhances G425S a1(I) secretion up to ~300% of basal levels. Notably, the effect is selective – WT a1(I) secretion is unaltered by XBP1s. XBP1s pathway activation appears to post-translationally enhance the folding/assembly and secretion of G425S a1(I). Consistent with this notion, we find that the stable, triple-helical collagen-I secreted by XBP1s-activated G425S a1(I) patient fibroblasts includes a higher proportion of the mutant a1(I) polypeptide than the collagen-I secreted under basal ER proteostasis conditions.
