The transcriptomic changes induced by NREP downregulation in HepG2 cells

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the global transcriptomic changes induced by Neuronal Regeneration Related Protein (NREP) downregulation, we employed RNA-sequencing in HepG2 cells lacking NREP. Enriched pathway analyses of upregulated genes revealed pathways involved in cholesterol synthesis, fatty acid metabolism, NAFLD and PI3K-250 AKT signaling. In contrast, enriched downregulated genes included those for membrane trafficking, non-sense mediated decay, glucagon signaling, and cell-cycle. Differentially expressed genes included HMGCR (cholesterol synthesis) and TGFBR1 (TGF-β signaling and fibrosis).

The hepatic methylome of liver-specific insulin receptor knockout (LIRKO) mouse offspring

Project description:Liver-specific insulin receptor knockout (LIRKO) mouse is a unique non-dietary model of insulin resistant, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis that resembles several clinical features of the human metabolic syndrome. By enhanced reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (ERRBS) analysis of the livers of wild-type (WT) offspring of LIRKO mice, we identified that genes with differential DNA methylation were enriched for cholesterol synthesis, MAPK, AKT, insulin and TGF-β signaling, including the NREP and GDF15.

Intestinal deletion of 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A Reductase promotes expansion of the resident stem cell compartment.

Project description:Objective: The intestine occupies the critical interface between cholesterol absorption and excretion. Despite this, surprisingly little is known about the role of de novo cholesterol synthesis in this organ, and its relationship to whole body cholesterol homeostasis. In addition to cholesterol, the mevalonate pathway is responsible for the synthesis of numerous non-sterol isoprenoids. Here we investigate the physiological importance of the mevalonate pathway within the intestine, through genetic deletion of the rate-limiting enzyme. Approach and Results: Mice lacking 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (Hmgcr) in intestinal villus and crypt epithelial cells were generated using a Villin-Cre transgene. In contrast to intestine-specific Srebp-2 and Scap knockouts, mice with intestinal-specific loss of Hmgcr are viable through adulthood and fertile. Hmgcr was efficiently deleted based on mRNA levels, as well as quantitative analysis of Hmgcr alleles by droplet digital PCR. Lipidomics revealed substantial reductions in the abundance of numerous non-sterol isoprenoids and sterol intermediates within the epithelial layer, while cholesterol levels were preserved. Although the intestinal knockout mice are born smaller, there is no net defect in feed efficiency or triglyceride absorption due to compensatory changes in bile acid composition and intestinal growth. At the cellular level, loss of Hmgcr is compensated for quickly after weaning through a dramatic expansion of the stem cell compartment within the crypts. Conclusions: Genetic loss of Hmgcr in the intestine is compatible with life, through mechanisms involving compensatory changes in bile acid composition, increased absorptive surface area, and expansion of the resident stem cell compartment.

Hnf-1β ChIP-Seq

Project description:Genome Wide mapping of Hnf-1β in kidney cells. Tissue-specific transcription factor that is expressed in the kidney and other epithelial organs. Humans with mutations in HNF1? develop kidney cysts, and HNF-1β regulates the transcription of several cystic disease genes. However, the complete spectrum of HNF-1β-regulated genes and pathways is not known. Here, we used ChIP-seq and DNA microarray analysis to identify 1,545 protein-coding genes that are directly regulated by HNF-1β in kidney epithelial cells. Pathway analysis predicted that HNF-1β regulates cholesterol metabolism. The expression of genes that are essential for cholesterol synthesis, including Srebf2 and Hmgcr, was reduced by expression of dominant-negative mutant HNF-1β or kidney-specific inactivation of HNF-1β. The levels of cholesterol biosynthetic intermediates and the rate of cholesterol synthesis were decreased in HNF-1β mutant cells. In addition, HNF-1β directly regulated the renal epithelial expression of PCSK9, a key regulator of cholesterol uptake, and depletion of cholesterol in the culture medium mitigated the inhibitory effects of mutant HNF-1β on SREBP-2 and HMGCR. These findings reveal a novel role of HNF-1β in regulating multiple steps in renal cholesterol metabolism.

25-Hydroxycholesterol inhibits hantavirus infection through reprogramming cholesterol metabolism and suggest statins as candidate hantavirus inhibitors

Project description:Hantavirus causes two kinds of acute diseases; hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS), and it is still a major health concern due to high mortality and lack of effective treatment. Interferon is only effective to inhibit hantavirus infection at a very early stage. Several interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) have been indicated to inhibit hantavirus infection. The cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) has been indicated as an ISG, which encodes an enzyme that catalyzes the production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC). 25HC plays an important role in regulating cholesterol biosynthesis and inhibits multiple enveloped virus infections. Here, we showed that Hantaan virus (HTNV), the prototype hantavirus, induces CH25H in infected cells. Overexpression of CH25H and treatment of its enzymatic product 25HC both inhibit HTNV infection, possibly through lowering 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl coenzyme A reductase regulation (HMG-CoA reductase, HMGCR) that inhibit cholesterol synthesis. Additionally, cholesterol lowering drugs, HMGCR-targeting statins process potent hantavirus inhibition effects. Taken together, our results indicate that the 25HC and statins were potential antivirals against hantavirus infection.

Expression of genes in HepG2 cells with Knock-out in cholesterol synthesis

Project description:HepG2 cell line CRISPR-Cas9 generated Knock-out in 4 cholesterol synthesis gene: CYP51, DHCR24, SC5D and HSD17B7 Excess of cholesterol associates with a variety of diseases so its synthesis must be under tight homeostatic control. The early part of cholesterol synthesis with rate-limiting HMGCR and SQLE steps is proceeded by the sterol part where numerous non-polar sterols with poorly defined biological functions are produced. To illuminate their role we developed knockouts (KO) for the consecutive enzymes that metabolize sterols towards cholesterol CYP51A1, DHCR24, SC5D resulted in the accumulation of specific set of sterols in each KO cell. Despite that, we targeted three steps of the cholesterol synthesis housekeeping pathway, the overlap of de-regulated genes was only 9%, suggesting that each set of sterols modulated the hepatic cell transcriptome uniquely. Lanosterol and 24,25-dihydrolanosterol, but not other non-polar sterols, provoked higher cell proliferation, cell cycle changes, and upregulation of metabolic pathways and transcription factors (TFs) associated with cancer progression and immune response like NFKB, SMAD, ESR1 and highly elevated LEF1 a protein from WNT signalling. In contrast, lathosterol and desmosterol caused slower proliferation and apoptosis promotion, through TFs like HNF1A and E2F. We were able to show how sterols from early part of synthesis can promote cell proliferation as sterols from end of synthesis suppress proliferation. These findings challenge the current dogma that sterols produced during cholesterol synthesis have similar biological functions

β-Caryophyllene Enhances the Transcriptional Upregulation of SREBP-dependent Lipid Biosynthesis in Breast Cancer Cells

Project description:β-caryophyllene (BCP) exhibits anti-proliferative properties in cancer cells. Here, we examine the hypothesis that BCP induces membrane remodeling. Our data show that high concentrations of BCP increase membrane permeability of human breast cells (hBrC) causing detachment and cell death. At a “sub-lethal” concentration of BCP, we show that BCP induces a striking upregulation of genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis, including the gene that encodes for HMGCoA reductase (HMGCR), the rate-determining step in cholesterol biosynthesis. In addition, stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) is also upregulated which would lead to the enhanced formation of monounsaturated fatty acids, specifically oleate and palmitoleate from stearoyl CoA and palmitoyl CoA, respectively. These fatty acids are major components of membrane phospholipids and cholesterol esters. Together, these data suggest that cells respond to BCP by increasing the synthesis of components found in membranes. These responses could be viewed as a repair mechanism and/or as a mechanism to mount resistance to the cytotoxic effect of BCP. Blocking HMGCR enhances the cytotoxicity of BCP, suggesting that this may provide an additional therapeutic tool in controlling breast cancer cell growth, assuming that targeted specificity could be established.

Gene expression analysis of H1299 cells in response to the presence or absence of glutamine or glucose

Project description:By a transcriptome analysis using RNA sequencing in H1299 cells, a non-small cell lung cancer cell line (NSCLC), we determined the response of lipogenic genes to absence vs. presence of glutamine (Gln) or glucose (Gluc). We found that neither glutamine nor glucose alone was able to activate the expression of genes regulating fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis, and uptake, including SREBF1, SREBF2, ACLY, ACACA, FASN, SCD1, HMGCR and LDLR, as compared to absence of both. And, activation of lipogenic genes required the presence of both glutamine and glucose, but SCAP gene expression was not affected by either glutamine or glucose. The RNA sequencing analysis in H1299 cells also confirmed that ammonia, similarly to glutamine, significantly activated the expression of genes controlling the fatty acid and cholesterol synthesis pathways as compared to glucose alone. This study detemines the intrinsic molecular connection between glutamine, glucose and lipid synthesis.
