Blockade of lL17 signaling reverses alcohol-induced liver injury, and excessive alcohol drinking in mice.

ABSTRACT: Chronic alcohol abuse has a detrimental effect on the brain and liver. There is no effective treatment for these patients and the mechanism underlying alcohol addiction and consequent alcohol-induced damage of the liver/brain axis remains unresolved. We compared experimental models of alcoholic liver disease (ALD) and alcohol dependence in mice and demonstrated that genetic ablation of IL17 Receptor A (IL17ra-/-), or pharmacological blockade of IL17 signaling effectively suppressed the increased voluntary alcohol drinking in alcohol-dependent mice, and blocked alcohol-induced hepatocellular and neurological damage. The level of circulating IL17A positively correlated with the alcohol use in excessive drinkers, and was further increased in patients with ALD as compared to healthy individuals. Our data suggest that IL17A is a common mediator of excessive alcohol consumption and alcohol-induced liver/brain injury, and targeting IL17A may provide a novel strategy for treatment of alcohol-induced pathology.

Enhanced Ca2+-channeling complex formation at the ER-mitochondria interface underlies the pathogenesis of alcohol-associated liver disease

Project description:Ca2+ overload-induced mitochondrial dysfunction is considered as a major contributing factor in the pathogenesis of alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). However, the initiating factors that drive mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation in ALD remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate that an aberrant increase in mitochondria-associated ER membranes (MAMs) mediates Ca2+ accumulation-induced mitochondrial dysfunction in ALD via the formation of glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75)-mediated MAM Ca2+-channeling (MCC) complex. Unbiased transcriptomic analysis reveals pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4) as a prominently inducible MAM kinase in ALD. Additional mass spectrometry analysis unveils the critical role of PDK4 in promoting alcohol-induced MCC complex formation and mitochondrial dysfunction by phosphorylating GRP75. Non-phosphorylatable GRP75 mutation or genetic ablation of PDK4 prevents alcohol-induced mitochondrial Ca2+ accumulation and dysfunction. Conversely, ectopic induction of MAM formation in PDK4-deficient mice abrogate the protective effect in alcohol-induced liver injury. Together, our study defines the mediatory role of PDK4 in promoting mitochondrial dysfunction in ALD.

The role of Cebpb in Alcohol-associated Liver Disease development and resolution

Project description:Abstinence is an important therapeutic intervention for patients with alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD). However, fibrosis improvement after cessation is not uniform and some patients do not improve. We aimed to use scATAC-seq analysis in a mouse model of ALD to define the mechanism of poor ALD resolution. We analyzed differentially accessible regions in livers from control, ALD, or 4 weeks post alcohol cessation mice and identified transcription factors activated in ALD that remained activated after alcohol withdrawal. The top hit was C/EBPβ. We found that hepatocyte specific Cebpb knockout prevented ALD development, while knockout at the time of alcohol cessation promoted fibrosis resolution.

Primary alcohol-activated human and mouse Hepatic Stellate Cells (HSCs) share similarities in gene expression profiles

Project description:Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) is a leading cause of cirrhosis in the United States, which is characterized by extensive deposition of extracellular matrix proteins (ECM) and formation of a fibrous scar. Hepatic Stellate Cells (HSCs) are the major source of Collagen Type I producing myofibroblasts in ALD fibrosis. However, the mechanism of alcohol-induced activation of human and mouse HSCs is not fully understood. We compared the gene expression profiles of primary cultured human HSCs (hHSCs) isolated from patients with ALD (n=3) or without underlying liver disease (n=4) using RNA-Seq analysis. Furthermore, the gene expression profile of ALD hHSCs was compared to that of alcohol-activated mHSCs (isolated from intragastric (IG) alcohol-fed mice), or carbon-tetrachloride (CCl4)-activated mouse HSCs (mHSCs). Comparative transcriptome analysis revealed that ALD hHSCs, and alcohol- and CCl4-activated mHSCs share the expression of common HSC activation (Col1a1, Acta1, PAI-1, TIMP1, LOXL2), indicating that a common mechanism underlies activation of human and mouse HSCs. Furthermore, alcohol-activated mHSCs most closely recapitulate the gene expression profile of ALD hHSCs. We identified the genes that are similarly and uniquely upregulated in primary cultured alcohol-activated hHSCs and freshly isolated mHSCs, which include CSF1R, PLEK, LAPTM5, CD74, CD53, MMP9, CD14, CTSS, TYROBP, ITGB2, and other genes (compared to CCl4-activated mHSCs). We identified genes in alcohol-activated mHSCs from IG alcohol-fed mice that are largely consistent with the gene expression profile of primary cultured hHSCs from ALD patients. These genes are unique to alcohol-induced HSC activation in two species, and therefore, may become new targets or readout for anti-fibrotic therapy in experimental models of ALD.

Human PXR signaling enhances ethanol-induced liver injury in females

Project description:Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) results from excessive alcohol consumption and is more severe in females. The prenane X receptor (PXR), a xenobiotic nuclear receptor essential for toxin defense, has been implicated in ALD, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Due to species differences in ligand specificty, humanized PXR (hPXR) mouse models are necessary to investigate its role in the sexual dimorphism of ALD in humans. Ethanol exposure caused the most severe hepatoxicity in female hPXR mice with microarray analysis identifying 442 genes uniquely regulated by ethanol in female hPXR mice, implicated with ethanol-induced liver damage.

Candida albicans-specific Th17 cell-mediated response contributes to alcohol-associated liver disease [scRNA & scTCR-seq]

Project description:Alcohol-associated liver disease is accompanied by changes in the intestinal mycobiome. How fungal dysbiosis contributes to liver disease is not clear. T-helper (Th17) cells mediate immune responses against fungi, but the interleukin 17 (IL17) pathway has been associated with pathogenesis of alcohol-associated liver disease. Here, we demonstrate that Candida albicans (C. albicans)-specific Th17 cells are increased in the circulation and present in the liver of patients with alcohol-associated liver disease. Chronic ethanol administration to mice results in migration of C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells from the intestine to the liver. The antifungal agent nystatin reduced intestinal fungal overgrowth, decreased C. albicans-specific Th17 cells in the liver, and reduced features of ethanol-induced liver disease in mice. Transgenic mice that express a T-cell receptor (TCR) reactive to Candida antigens develop more severe ethanol-induced liver disease than transgene-negative littermates; disease severity was reduced by administration of an antibody against IL17 to the TCR transgenic mice. Adoptive transfer of C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells exacerbated ethanol-induced liver disease in wild-type mice. IL17 receptor A (IL17ra) signaling in Kupffer cells was required for the effects of C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells. Our findings indicate that ethanol increases C. albicans-reactive Th17 cells, which contribute to alcohol-associated liver disease.

Sex specific role of KDM5B demethylase in Alcohol-associated Liver Disease development and resolution

Project description:Alcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a major cause of alcohol related mortality. Recently we identified hepatic demethylases KDM5B and KDM5C as important sex-specific epigenetic regulators of alcohol response in the liver. In this study we aimed to study the molecular mechanisms of KDM5-dependent ALD development and resolution. We found that alcohol induces pathological changes in cell-cell communication in the liver that are in part mediated by epigenetic changes in hepatocytes mediated by histone demethylase KDM5B. Using cell type specific knockout mice, we found that KDM5B histone demethylase was a key regulator of alcohol-induced epigenetic changes in hepatocytes. Moreover, it regulated hepatocytes-non-parenchymal cell crosstalk that promoted inflammation and fibrosis development in ALD. This mechanism was specific to females. In males KDM5B deficiency was not sufficient to prevent fibrosis development. In contrast KDM5B demethylase loss promoted fibrosis resolution in both males and females. This mechanism involved changes in hepatocyte-macrophage crosstalk and LXRα activation, which we identified to be critical for the fibrosis resolution process. CONCLUSION: In summary, KDM5B demethylase is a regulator of cell-cell crosstalk involved in disease progression in females and in disease resolution in both sexes.

Transcriptomic data from the liver of Ahr knockout mice

Project description:Alcoholic liver disease, which varies in severity from mild steatosis to cirrhosis and hepatitis, is one of the most prevalent chronic liver diseases worldwide. Excessive alcohol consumption remains the leading cause of ALD and alcohol-related complications and deaths. However, no medications have been developed to treat this disease and its pathogenesis remains elusive. Here, to understand alcohol-induced AhR activation in more detail, transcriptomic data was conducted using livers from mice subjected to either control or Lieber-DeCarli alcohol diets.
