Project description:Prevention and treatment options for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are presently limited, underscoring the necessity for elucidating molecular mechanisms underlying HCC development and identifying new prevention and therapeutic targets. We demonstrate a unique precancerous niche that features enhanced p53 pathway, aberrant cytoplasmic p21WAF1/CIP1-expressing hepatocytes, and increased CD8+ T lymphocyte and macrophage infiltration in the livers of Ncoa5+/- mouse model of HCC. Metformin treatment reverses these precancerous features and profoundly reduces tumor incidence. Our data also reveal that a subset of HCC patients with a similar precancerous niche in the adjacent noncancerous livers had a relatively poor prognosis. Our study suggests a perceptible hepatic niche predisposing to HCC development and uncovers new actions of metformin in the prevention and treatment of HCC.

Project description:CPEB4 prevents hepatic steatosis
| PRJNA322835 | ENA
Project description:This study tests whether hepatic steatosis, independent of inflammation, alters the hepatocyte protein secretory profile, and examines whether changes in the secretory products contribute to the development of metabolic dysfunction in other cell types. Mouse hepatocytes were isolated by flow cytometry and cultured in serum-free conditions. Conditioned media was used for LC/MS analysis to compare hepatocytes from chow fed animals to high-fat diet animals with liver steatosis.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which accounts for 90% of all primary livers tumors, is the fourth most common cancer in the world. The development of HCC is a long-term and complex process, and uncovering the molecular mechanisms associated with HCC development is critical for the disease diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. Exploring these mechanisms using human HCC samples is desirable, but frequently impractical, with a number of limitations and shortcomings. The STAMTM (Stelic Institute & Co, Tokyo, Japan) mouse model of NASH-associated liver carcinogenesis is considered a useful and relevant model for investigating the molecular pathogenesis of NASH-derived HCC. This model resembles the human HCC development associated with progression from simple steatosis to NASH, fibrosis, and HCC. In the present study, by using high-throughput whole genome microarrays (SurePrint G3 Mouse Gene Expression v2, 8x60K; Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA), we examined the transcriptomic profiles in the livers of STAMTM mice at different stages of liver carcinogenesis, including steatosis (6 week time interval), NASH (8 weeks), fibrotic stage (12 weeks), and in full-fledged HCC (20 weeks). The results of microarray analyses showed significant progressive changes in hepatic gene expression during the development of HCC. A total of 970, 1462, 2742, and 2857 of differentially expressed genes were identified in the livers at 6, 8, 12, and 20 weeks, respectively. Detailed analysis of these differentially expressed genes will benefit the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease-derived HCC. Transcriptomic profile in the liver of STAM mice at 6 weeks (steatosis; n=3), 8 weeks (steatohepatitis; n=3) 12 weeks (fibrosis; n=4) and 20 weeks (HCC-stage tumor tissue, n=4) weeks. Age-matched control samples were also analyzed.

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects one third of the global population. Understanding metabolic pathways involved can provide insights into disease progression and treatment. Untargeted metabolomics of livers from mice with early-stage steatosis uncovered decreased methylated metabolites, suggesting altered one-carbon metabolism. The levels of glycine, a central component of one-carbon metabolism, were lower in mice with hepatic steatosis, consistent with clinical evidence. Stable-isotope tracing demonstrated that increased serine synthesis from glycine via reverse serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT) is the underlying cause for decreased glycine in steatotic livers. Consequently, limited glycine availability in steatotic livers impaired glutathione synthesis under acetaminophen-induced oxidative stress, enhancing acute hepatotoxicity. Glycine supplementation or hepatocyte-specific
ablation of the mitochondrial SHMT2 isoform in mice with hepatic steatosis mitigated
acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity by supporting de novo glutathione synthesis. Thus, early metabolic changes in MASLD that limit glycine availability sensitize mice to xenobiotics even at the reversible stage of this disease.

Project description:<p>Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) prevalence is rising with no pharmacotherapy approved. A major hurdle in NASH drug development is the poor translatability of preclinical studies to safe/effective clinical outcomes, and recent failures highlight a need to identify new targetable pathways. Dysregulated glycine metabolism has emerged as a causative factor and therapeutic target in NASH. Here, we report that the tripeptide DT-109 (Gly-Gly-Leu) dose-dependently attenuates steatohepatitis and fibrosis in mice. To enhance the probability of successful translation, we developed a nonhuman primate model that histologically and transcriptionally mimics human NASH. Applying a multiomics approach combining transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and metagenomics, we found that DT-109 reverses hepatic steatosis and prevents fibrosis progression in nonhuman primates, not only by stimulating fatty acid degradation and glutathione formation, as found in mice, but also by modulating microbial bile acid metabolism. Our studies describe a highly translatable NASH model and highlight the need for clinical evaluation of DT-109.</p>

Project description:Accumulation of damaged mitochondria is a hallmark of human aging and age-related neurodegenerative pathologies, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, the molecular mechanisms of the impaired mitochondrial homeostasis and their relationship to AD are still elusive. Here we provide evidence that mitophagy, a cellular process mediating selective clearance of dysfunctional mitochondria, is impaired in AD patient hippocampus, in iPSC-derived human neurons and in animal AD models. In C. elegans models of AD, pharmacological stimulation of mitophagy reverses memory impairment through a PINK-1, PDR-1 and DCT-1 dependent pathway. Mitophagy induction diminishes the levels of insoluble amyloid-β (Aβ)1-42 and Aβ1-40 peptide isoforms and prevents cognitive impairment in AD mice by a mechanism involving microglial phagocytosis of extracellular Aβ plaques and suppression of neuroinflammation. Furthermore, mitophagy abolishes AD-related Tau hyperphosphorylation in human neuronal cells and reverses memory impairment in transgenic Tau nematodes. Our findings suggest that impaired removal of defective mitochondria is a pivotal event in AD pathogenesis. Interventions that stimulate mitophagy therefore have therapeutic potential in the prevention and treatment of AD.
