Project description:Purpose：Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare hereditary disorder due to ATP7B gene mutation, causing pathologic copper storage mainly in the liver and neurological systems. Hepatocyte transplantation showed therapeutic potential, however, this strategy is often hindered by a shortage of quality donor cells and by allogeneic immune rejection. Here we evaluate the function and efficacy of autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene-restored hepatocytes using a murine model of WD Mathods and Results: By reprogramming hepatocytes from ATP7B-/- mice with small molecules, sufficient liver progenitor cells (LPCs) are harvested. After lentivirus-mediated miniATP7B gene transfection and re-differentiation, functional LPC-ATP7B-Heps are developed. RNA-seq data show that compared with LPC-GFP-Heps with enrichment of genes mainly in pathways of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis, in LPC-ATP7B-Heps under high copper stress pathways for copper ion binding and cell proliferation are enriched. LPC-ATP7B-Heps transplantation into ATP7B-/- mice alleviates deposition of excess liver copper with its associated inflammation and fibrosis, comparable to those observed using normal primary hepatocytes at four months after transplantation. Conclusion: We establish the autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene restored LPC-ATP7B-Heps and further transplantation demonstrate alleviated copper accumulation in WD mice.

Project description:Wilson disease (WD) is a severe metabolic disorder caused by genetic inactivation of copper-transporting ATPase ATP7B. In WD, copper accumulates in several tissues, particularly in the liver, inducing marked time-dependent pathological changes. To identify initial events in the copper-dependent development of liver pathology we utilized the Atp7b-/- mice, an animal model for WD. Analysis of mRNA from livers of control and Atp7b-/- 6 weeks-old mice using oligonucleotide arrays revealed specific changes of the transcriptome at this stage of copper accumulation. Few messages (29 up-regulated and 46 down-regulated) change their abundance more than 2-fold pointing to the specific effect of copper on gene expression/mRNA stability. The gene ontology analysis revealed copper effects on distinct metabolic pathways. Experiment Overall Design: RNA isolation for microarrays: Immediately after removal, what size [mg] the liver pieces for RNA isolation were frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored till further use. The total RNA was isolated from frozen mouse livers using TRIZOL reagent (Invitrogen) according to manufacturerâs recommendations followed by a subsequent sample

Project description:Wilson’s disease (WD) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene. These mutations impact the expression and/or function of the copper-transporting ATP7B protein, leading to massive toxic accumulation of copper in the liver and brain. Due to its low incidence and highly variable clinical presentations, WD is challenging to diagnose. Here, we explored the plasma proteome of the Atp7b-/- mouse, a genetic and phenotypic model of WD, to provide new insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of WD and discover potential biomarkers for WD diagnosis. A mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics workflow combining unbiased discovery analysis followed by targeted quantification was developed. Analysis of two independent groups of samples (discovery and validation cohorts) highlighted seven plasma proteins for which abundance was significantly modified (more than 2-fold) between Atp7b-/- mice and wild-type littermates. To assess the clinical significance and specificity of these seven proteins as potential biomarkers for WD, we adapted our targeted proteomics assay to allow the quantification of human orthologues in plasma from WD patients (treated with copper chelators), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients (disease-control group), and healthy donors. The plasma proteome changes observed in the Atp7b-/- mouse were not confirmed in treated WD patients, with the exception of alpha-1 antichymotrypsin, levels of which were decreased in WD patients compared to healthy individuals. Plasma ceruloplasmin was investigated in both the Atp7b-/- mouse model and human patients, and was found to be significantly decreased in the human form of WD only.

Project description:Wilson disease (WD) is caused by mutations in the copper transporter ATP7B, leading to copper accumulation in the liver and brain. Excess copper inhibits S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase, leading to variable WD phenotypes from widespread alterations in DNA methylation and gene expression. Previously, we demonstrated that maternal choline supplementation in the Jackson toxic milk (tx-j) mouse model of WD corrected higher thioredoxin 1 transcript levels in fetal liver. Here, we investigated the effect of maternal choline supplementation on genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in tx-j fetal liver by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS). Tx-j Atp7b genotype-dependent differences in DNA methylation were corrected by choline for genes including, but not exclusive to, oxidative stress pathways. To examine phenotypic effects of postnatal choline supplementation, tx-j mice were randomized to one of six treatment groups: with or without maternal and/or continued choline supplementation, and with or without copper chelation with penicillamine (PCA) treatment. Hepatic transcript levels of thioredoxin 1 and peroxiredoxin 1 were significantly higher in mice receiving maternal and continued choline with or without PCA treatment compared to untreated mice. A comparison of WGBS of human WD liver compared to tx-j mouse liver demonstrated a significant overlap of differentially-methylated genes associated with ATP7B deficiency. Further, eight genes in the thioredoxin pathway were differentially methylated in human WD liver samples. In summary, Atp7b deficiency and choline supplementation have a genome-wide impact, including on thioredoxin system-related genes, in tx-j mice. These findings could explain the variability of WD phenotype and suggest new complementary treatment options for WD.

Project description:LXR is a transcription factor. Two isoforms exist in mice (alpha and beta). They are both expressed in the liver. We examined the role of LXR by obtaining gene expression profiles from the livers of wild-type and LXR-/- mice from the same genetic background. Liver gene expression was measured from male mice (5 mice/group) of genotypes wild-type and LXR-/- on a mixed Sv129/C57Bl6J background (Repa et al. , 2000, Science, 289(5484):1524-9; Cummins et al., 2006, J Clin Invest,116(7):1902-12) fed for 7 weeks a normal diet (ND) or a Western diet (WD).

Project description:To find new genes that might be targeted for reduction of Copper (Cu) toxicity in Wilson disease we employed genome-wide shRNA screening in ATP7B-KO HepG2 cells, a bona fide WD cell model. Cells were screened using the Dharmacon™ Decode™ Pooled Lentiviral shRNA Screening Library targeting 18205 human genes (Dharmacon #RHS6083). The Lentiviral RNAi screening library is made of 10 pools of 9570 GIPZ short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) packaged into high-titer lentiviral particles. Genomic DNA was isolated from the cells and read counts for each shRNAs were obtained by deep sequencing to determine the abundance of each shRNA in the Cu-treated cells compared to controls. This analysis allowed the identification of genes whose downregulation promoted survival of ATP7B-KO cells upon Cu overload. To exclude that some shRNAs would have been responsible for ATP7B-KO survival by suppressing generic proapoptotic genes, we run the same screening with the proapoptotic drug vinblastine instead of CuCl2. Genes, whose suppression allowed cell to resist Cu but not vinblastine were considered as Cu-specific hits and through this approach we identified PrP as a suitable target for reduction of Cu toxicity in WD. Indeed, we found that Cu accumulation in ATP7B-KO cells stimulates expression of PrP, which brings to toxic Cu overload while PrP suppression significantly reduces Cu accumulation and toxicity in ATP7B-deficient cells. In sum our data highlight an important regulatory role of PrP in copper metabolism and as a therapeutic tool for Wilson disease.

Project description:The liver X receptors (LXRs) are nuclear receptors that form permissive heterodimers with retinoid X receptor (RXR) and are important regulators of lipid metabolism in the liver. We have recently shown that RXR agonist-induced hypertriglyceridemia and hepatic steatosis in mice is dependent on LXR and correlates with an LXR-dependent hepatic induction of lipogenic genes. To further investigate the role of RXR and LXR in the regulation of hepatic gene expression, we have mapped the ligand-regulated genome-wide binding of these factors in mouse liver. We find that the RXR agonist bexarotene primarily increases the genomic binding of RXR, whereas the LXR agonist T0901317 greatly increases both LXR and RXR binding. Functional annotation of putative direct LXR target genes revealed a significant association with classical LXR-regulated pathways as well as PPAR signaling pathways, and subsequent ChIP-seq mapping of PPARM-NM-1 binding demonstrated binding of PPARM-NM-1 to 71-88% of the identified LXR:RXR binding sites. Sequence analysis of shared binding regions combined with sequential ChIP on selected sites indicate that LXR:RXR and PPARM-NM-1:RXR bind to degenerate response elements in a mutually exclusive manner. Together our findings suggest extensive and unexpected cross-talk between hepatic LXR and PPARM-NM-1 at the level of binding to shared genomic sites LXR, RXR, PPARalpha and RNA Polymerase II ChIP-seq on livers from female C57BL/6 wild-type and/or LXRM-NM-1/M-NM-2-deficient mice (13 weeks of age, n=1) treated by oral gavage once daily for 14 days with the RXR agonist bexarotene (100 mg/kg body weight [mpk], in 1% carboxymethylcellulose), the LXR agonist T0901317 (T09, 30 mpk) or vehicle alone.
