Lysosome Rich Enterocytes mediate protein absorption in the vertebrate gut

ABSTRACT: The goal of this RNA-seq experiment was to compare gene expression profiles of two different intestinal cell populations (Intestinal epithelial cells that mostly reside in the anterior gut and Lysosome rich enterocytes that reside in mid-intestine) in zebrafish to better understand the characteristics of LREs and uncover the molecular players mediating the function of LREs. Two populations were FACS isolated from 6 days post fertilization (dpf) TgBAC(cldn15la-GFPpd1034) transgenic fish gavaged with Alexa Fluor 568 Dextran 24 hours prior to FACS. RNA was extracted from the FACS sorted cells and expression profiles were determined using Illumina HiSeq. Comparison of the sample groups allowed for identification of unique candidates. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed using HISAT2, and gene counts were analyzed using HTSeq.

Lysosome-Rich Enterocytes Mediate Protein Absorption in the Vertebrate Gut.

Project description:The guts of neonatal mammals and stomachless fish have a limited capacity for luminal protein digestion, which allows oral acquisition of antibodies and antigens. However, how dietary protein is absorbed during critical developmental stages when the gut is still immature is unknown. Here, we show that specialized intestinal cells, which we call lysosome-rich enterocytes (LREs), internalize dietary protein via receptor-mediated and fluid-phase endocytosis for intracellular digestion and trans-cellular transport. In LREs, we identify a conserved endocytic machinery, composed of the scavenger receptor complex Cubilin/Amnionless and Dab2, that is required for protein uptake by LREs and for growth and survival of larval zebrafish. Moreover, impairing LRE function in suckling mice, via conditional deletion of Dab2, leads to stunted growth and severe protein malnutrition reminiscent of kwashiorkor, a devastating human malnutrition syndrome. These findings identify digestive functions and conserved molecular mechanisms in LREs that are crucial for vertebrate growth and survival.

DGAT1 deficiency disrupts lysosome function in enterocytes during dietary fat absorption.

Project description:Enterocytes, the absorptive cells of the small intestine, mediate the process of dietary fat absorption by secreting triacylglycerol (TAG) into circulation. When levels of dietary fat are high, TAG is stored in cytoplasmic lipid droplets (CLDs) and sequentially hydrolyzed for ultimate secretion. Mice with deficiency in acyl CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (Dgat1-/- mice) were previously reported to have a reduced rate of intestinal TAG secretion and abnormal TAG accumulation in enterocyte CLDs. This unique intestinal phenotype is critical to their resistance to diet-induced obesity; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Emerging evidence shows that lysosomal TAG hydrolysis contributes to autophagy-mediated CLD mobilization termed lipophagy, and when disrupted results in CLD accumulation. In order to study how lipophagy contributes to the unique intestinal phenotype of Dgat1-/- mice, enterocytes from wild-type (WT) and Dgat1-/- mice were examined at 2 and 6?h after oral oil gavage. Through ultrastructural analysis we observed TAG present within autophagic vesicles (AVs) in mouse enterocytes, suggesting the role of lipophagy in intestinal CLD mobilization during dietary fat absorption. Furthermore, we found that Dgat1-/- mice had abnormal TAG accumulation within AVs and less acidic lysosomes compared to WT mice. Together these findings suggest that the delayed dietary fat absorption seen in Dgat1-/- mice is, in part, due to the dysregulated flux of autophagy-mediated CLD mobilization and impairment of lysosomal acidification in enterocytes. The present study highlights the critical role of lysosome in enterocyte CLD mobilization for proper dietary fat absorption.

Fxr signaling and microbial metabolism of bile salts in the zebrafish intestine

Project description:The purpose of this study was to elucidate potential effects of fxr mutation on the functional specification of intestinal epithelial cells. To do this, we sorted GFP-positive cells from TgBAC(cldn15la:GFP) transgenics of either fxr+/+ or fxr-/- fish larvae and subjected them to 10X Genomics single-cell RNA-seq. Our results uncovered the requirement of fxr in gene expression and differentiation among multiple intestinal epithelial cell types.

Blockade of cholesterol absorption by ezetimibe reveals a complex homeostatic network in enterocytes.

Project description:Enterocyte cholesterol homeostasis reflects aggregated rates of sterol synthesis, efflux, and uptake from plasma and gut lumen. Cholesterol synthesis and LDL uptake are coordinately regulated by sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBP), whereas sterol efflux is regulated by liver X receptors (LXR). How these processes are coordinately regulated in enterocytes, the site of cholesterol absorption, is not well understood. Here, we treat mice with ezetimibe to investigate the effect of blocking cholesterol absorption on intestinal SREBPs, LXRs, and their effectors. Ezetimibe increased nuclear SREBP-2 8-fold. HMG-CoA reductase (HMGR) and LDL receptor (LDLR) mRNA levels increased less than 3-fold, whereas their protein levels increased 30- and 10-fold, respectively. Expression of inducible degrader of LDLR (IDOL), an LXR-regulated gene that degrades LDLRs, was reduced 50% by ezetimibe. Coadministration of ezetimibe with the LXR agonist T0901317 abolished the reduction in IDOL and prevented the increase in LDLR protein. Ezetimibe-stimulated LDLR expression was independent of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PSCK9), a protein that degrades LDLRs. To maintain cholesterol homeostasis in the face of ezetimibe, enterocytes boost LDL uptake by increasing LDLR number, and they boost sterol synthesis by increasing HMGR and other cholesterologenic genes. These studies reveal a hitherto undescribed homeostatic network in enterocytes triggered by blockade of cholesterol absorption.

Intestinal lipid metabolism regulates absorption and surface of gut epithelium

Project description:Intestinal surface changes in size and function in response to environmental conditions, but what propels these alterations and what are the metabolic consequences is not clear. Here we show that in mice gut surface enlarges by increasing food amount rather than caloric intake, contributing to an increased absorptive function, and that it can be reversed by reducing daily food amount. Genetic- and environment-induced gut enlargement due to overeating is principally supported by upregulation of the intestinal lipid metabolism and transport. Intestinal knock-out, and pharmacological inhibition of PPARα supress intestinal crypt formation and shorten villi in the small intestine of mice and in human intestinal biopsies, respectively, and diminish post-prandial triglyceride transport and nutrient uptake. PPARα inhibition limits lipid absorption and restricts lipid droplet growth and PLIN2 levels, critical for the droplet formation. This improves lipid metabolism, reduces body adiposity and liver steatosis, suggesting an alternative target for treating obesity.

Mitochondria regulate dietary lipid processing in enterocytes

Project description:Digested dietary fats are taken up, processed and transported by enterocytes to supply the body with lipids. Most absorbed lipids are assembled into pre-chylomicrons in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of enterocytes, which are then transported to the Golgi for maturation and subsequent secretion to the circulation. The role of mitochondria in regulating intestinal lipid transport remains unknown. Here we show that mitochondrial dysfunction in enterocytes inhibits chylomicron production and the transport of dietary lipids to peripheral organs. Mice with intestinal epithelial cell (IEC)-specific ablation of the mitochondrial-specific aspartyl - tRNA synthetase DARS2, as well as of the respiratory chain subunit SDHA or the assembly factor COX10 failed to thrive and showed massive accumulation of lipids within large lipid droplets (LDs) in enterocytes of the proximal small intestine (SI). Feeding a fat-free diet inhibited the formation of LDs in DARS2-deficient enterocytes, showing that accumulating lipids derive mostly from digested fat. Furthermore, metabolic tracing studies revealed impaired transport of dietary lipids to peripheral organs in mice lacking DARS2 in IECs. Moreover, DARS2-deficient enterocytes showed a distinct lack of mature chylomicrons concomitant with a disorganisation of the Golgi apparatus, suggesting that impaired ER to Golgi trafficking underlies impaired chylomicron production and secretion. Taken together, these results revealed a vital role of mitochondria in regulating dietary lipid transport in enterocytes, which is relevant for understanding the intestinal and nutritional defects observed in patients with mitochondrial defects.

Single-cell transcriptome analysis of gata5GFP labelled WT and Gata5/6 deficient cells from early gastrulation to early somitogenesis in zebrafish

Project description:TgBAC(gata5:EGFP) transgenic line was used to isolate mesendoderm cells enriched for cardiac lineage. Wild type embryos at 6, 8, 10, 13 hours post fertilization (hpf) and morpholinos injected Gata5/6 know-down (KD) embryos at 13 hpf were pre-screened for GFP signal and dissociated into single-cell suspension in separate wells. GFP+ cells at each condition were isolated through fluorescent activated cell sorting (FACS). Single-cell cDNA libraries were constructed through the 10x Chromium Single Cell Gene Expression platform. Final sequencing was performed on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform (Rapid Run Model). Note that the 10h single-cell library was sequenced twice (Named as cDNA10h_1* and cDNA10h_2* separately).
