Impaired Liver X Receptor alpha phosphorylation affects hepatic chromatin H3K27 acetylation patterns

ABSTRACT: Liver X Receptors (LXRα and β) are ligand-activated transcription factors that play a key role in the control of lipid homeostasis, as well as modulation of immunity and inflammation. Besides ligand binding, LXR activity can be regulated by posttranslational modifications, such as phosphorylation. This study aims to assess how changes in the phosphorylation status of LXRα affect the H3K27Ac histone modification, a known marker for active regulatory elements in promoters and enhancers, in livers of mice mice that carry a whole-body phosphorylation deficient-version of LXRα (S196A) compared to wild-type (WT), in response to a high fat-high cholesterol diet.

Pioneer factor Foxa2 enables ligand-dependent activation of type II nuclear receptors FXR and LXRa

Project description:Type II nuclear hormone receptors, such as FXR, LXR, and PPAR, which function in glucose and lipid metabolism and serve as drug targets for metabolic diseases, are permanently positioned in the nucleus regardless of the ligand status. Ligand activation of these receptors is thought to occur by co-repressor/co-activator exchange, followed by initiation of transcription. However, recent genome-wide location analysis showed that LXRα and PPARα binding in the liver is largely ligand-dependent. We hypothesized that pioneer factor Foxa2 evicts nucleosomes to enable ligand-dependent receptor binding. We show that chromatin accessibility, FXR binding and LXRα occupancy, and ligand-responsive activation of gene expression by FXR and LXRα require Foxa2. Unexpectedly, Foxa2 occupancy is drastically increased when either receptor, FXR or LXRα, is bound by an agonist. In addition, co-immunoprecipitation experiments demonstrate that Foxa2 interacts with either receptor in a ligand-dependent manner, suggesting that Foxa2 and the receptor bind DNA as an interdependent complex during ligand activation. Furthermore, PPARα binding is induced in Foxa2 mutants treated with FXR and LXR ligands, leading to activation of PPARα targets.

Foam cell specific LXRα ligand

Project description:OBJECTIVE: The liver X receptor α (LXRα) is a ligand-dependent nuclear receptor and the major regulator of reverse cholesterol transport in macrophages. This makes it an interesting target for mechanistic study and treatment of atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS: We optimized a promising stilbenoid structure (STX4) in order to reach nanomolar effective concentrations in LXRα reporter-gene assays. STX4 displayed the unique property to activate LXRα effectively but not its subtype LXRβ. The potential of STX4 to increase transcriptional activity as an LXRα ligand was tested with gene expression analyses in THP1-derived human macrophages and oxLDL-loaded human foam cells. Only in foam cells but not in macrophage cells STX4 treatment showed athero-protective effects with similar potency as the synthetic LXR ligand T0901317 (T09). Surprisingly, combinatorial treatment with STX4 and T09 resulted in an additive effect on reporter-gene activation and target gene expression. In physiological tests the cellular content of total and esterified cholesterol was significantly reduced by STX4 without the undesirable increase in triglyceride levels as observed for T09. CONCLUSIONS: STX4 is a new LXRα-ligand to study transcriptional regulation of anti-atherogenic processes in cell or ex vivo models, and provides a promising lead structure for pharmaceutical development.

Common and differential transcriptional actions of LXRalpha and LXRbeta in murine macrophages

Project description:The LXR proteins, LXRα and LXRβ, are transcription factors that belong to the nuclear receptor superfamily. LXRs are activated by oxysterols and control the transcription of genes involved in the regulation of cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism. They also mediate several aspects of macrophage biology, including inflammatory responses, cell survival in response to infection and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells. LXRs share a high degree of sequence homology and most of their functions are believed to be performed similarly by LXRα and LXRβ. However, the individual, transcriptional roles of each LXR isoform have not been characterized in detail, in part due to the lack of specific experimental tools that can discriminate between LXRα and LXRβ actions. To identify common and differential transcriptional functions of LXR nuclear receptors in macrophages, we developed a cellular model of stable expression of FLAG-tagged LXRα or LXRβ in LXR-null immortalized murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (parental line published Elife. 2015 Jul 14;4:e08009. doi: 10.7554/eLife.08009). To take a deeper insight into the epigenomic features of LXR nuclear receptors, we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled to next-generation sequencing (ChIP-seq) to identify genome-wide binding locations of LXRα and LXRβ in the presence of a synthetic agonist (GW3965, 1uM). Additionally, we identified genome-wide DNA locations of acetylation mark on lysine 27 of histone H3 (H3K27ac), upon LXR agonist (GW3965, 1uM) and antagonist (GW2033, 1uM) treatment. Collectively, these studies will increase our understanding of common and differential genomic actions of LXRα and LXRβ in cultured murine macrophages.

Liver X Receptor α Activation Enhances Cholesterol Secretion in Lactating Mammary Epithelium

Project description:We profiled differential gene expression in vivo between pregnant day 14 (secretory differentiation) and lactation day 4 (established secretory activation) using isolated mouse mammary epithelial cells depleted of the mammary adipocytes. Liver-X-Receptors are ligand-dependent transcription factors activated by cholesterol metabolites. These receptors induce a suite of target genes required for de novo synthesis of triglycerides and cholesterol transport in many tissues. Two different isoforms -LXRα and LXRβ- have been well characterized in liver, adipocytes, macrophages and intestinal epithelium among others, but their contribution to cholesterol and fatty acid efflux in the lactating mammary gland is poorly understood. We hypothesize that LXR regulates lipogenesis during milk fat production in lactation. Global mRNA analysis of mouse mammary epithelial cells (MECs) revealed multiple LXR/RXR targets are upregulated sharply at the onset of lactation compared to mid-pregnancy. LXRα is the primary isoform and its protein levels increase throughout lactation in MECs. The LXR agonist GW3965 markedly induced several genes involved in cholesterol transport and lipogenesis and enhanced cytoplasmic lipid droplet accumulation in the HC11 MEC cell line. Importantly, in vivo pharmacological activation of LXR increased the milk cholesterol percentage and induced Srebp1c and Abca7 expression in MECs. Cumulatively, our findings identify LXRα as an important regulator of cholesterol incorporation into the milk through key nodes of de novo lipogenesis, suggesting a potential therapeutic target in women with difficulty initiating lactation.

LXRalpha Controls Metabolism Associated Steatotic Hepatitis (MASH)

Project description:Liver x receptor alpha (LXRα, Nr1h3) functions as an important intracellular cholesterol sensor that regulates liver fat and cholesterol metabolism at the transcriptional level in response to the direct binding of cholesterol derivatives. We have generated mice with a mutation in LXRα that reduces activity in response to endogenous cholesterol derived LXR ligands while still allowing transcriptional activation by synthetic agonists. The mutant LXRα functions as a dominant negative that shuts down cholesterol sensing. When fed a high fat, high cholesterol diet LXRα mutant mice rapidly develop pathologies associated with Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) including ballooning hepatocytes, liver inflammation, and fibrosis. Strikingly LXRα mutant mice have decreased liver triglycerides but increased liver cholesterol. Therefore, MASH-like phenotypes can arise in the absence of large increases in hepatic triglycerides. Reengaging LXR signaling by treatment with synthetic agonist reverses MASH suggesting that LXRα normally functions to impede the development of liver disease.
