Analysis of Wild Type and hepatocyte-specific CD36 knockout (CD36LKO) mice liver Transcriptomes under high fat diet (HFD)

ABSTRACT: We generated hepatocyte-specific CD36 knockout (CD36LKO) mice to study in vivo effects of CD36 on de novo lipogenesis (DNL) under high fat diet (HFD). Lipid deposition and DNL were analyzed in primary hepatocytes isolated from CD36LKO mice or HepG2 cells with CD36 overexpression. RNA-sequence, co-immunoprecipitation and proximity ligation assay were carried out to determine its role in regulating DNL. Results: Hepatic CD36 expression was upregulated in NAFLD mice and patients, and CD36LKO mice exhibited attenuated HFD-induced hepatic steatosis and insulin resistance. We identified hepatocyte CD36 as a key regulator for DNL in the liver. Sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1) and its downstream lipogenic enzymes such as FASN, ACCα and ACLY were significantly downregulated in the liver of HFD-fed CD36LKO mice, whereas overexpression CD36 stimulated insulin-mediated DNL and lipid droplet formation in vitro. Mechanistically, CD36 was activated by insulin and formed a complex with insulin induced gene-2 (INSIG2), that disrupts the interaction between SREBP cleavage-activating protein (SCAP) and INSIG2, thereby leading to the translocation of SREBP1 from ER to Golgi for processing. Furthermore, treatment with 25-hydroxycholesterol or betulin, molecules shown to enhance SCAP/INSIG interaction, reversed the effects of CD36 on SREBP1 cleavage.

Project description:Objective：Phospholipase D1 (PLD1), a phosphatidylcholine-hydrolyzing enzyme, has been found to be involved in cellular lipid metabolism. However, how PLD1 involves in hepatocyte lipid metabolism and thus affects non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases (NAFLD) has not been explicitly explored. Method: NAFLD is induced in hepatocyte-specific Pld1 knockout (Pld1(H)-KO) mice or control (Pld1-Flox) mice with a high fat diet (HFD) for 20 weeks. Plasma glucose and lipid levels, liver lipid and function parameters and inflammation- and fibrogenesis-related gene expression levels were studied. Changes in lipid composition of liver were detected by lipidomic analyses. Changes in gene expression profile were detected by mRNA sequencing. In vitro, alpha mouse liver 12 (AML12) cells were incubated with sodium palmitate (SP) to explore the mechanisms of PLD1 on development of NAFLD. The protein levels of PLD1 and CD36 were detected in the liver tissues of NAFLD patients. Finally, the therapeutic effect of NAFLD by inhibiting PLD with 5-Fluoro-2-indolyl deschlorohalopemide (FIPI) was examined. Results: PLD1 expression levels were increased in the liver tissues of NAFLD patients and the hepatocytes of HFD-induced mice. Compared with Pld1-Flox mice, Pld1(H)-KO mice exhibited lower plasma glucose and lipids levels, and decreased lipid accumulation, inflammation and fibrosis related gene expression levels in the liver tissues after HFD feeding. Inhibition of hepatocyte PLD1 significantly altered lipid composition, especially phosphatidic acids (PA) and lyso-PAs (LPA) levels in the liver tissues after NAFLD. Transcriptomic analysis showed that hepatocyte specific deficiency of PLD1 mainly decreased CD36 expression levels in the NAFLD liver tissues, which was confirmed at the protein and gene expression levels. In vitro, inhibition of PLD1 markedly decreased CD36 expression and lipid accumulation in SP treated AML12 cells. Furthermore, PA, the downstream product catalyzed by PLD1, increased the expression levels of CD36 and lipid accumulation in vitro, which was reversed by PPARγ antagonist. These suggested that PPARγ played an important role in transcriptional regulation of CD36 expression after PA stimulation. Finally, PLD inhibitor FIPI had significant therapeutic effect on HFD-induced NAFLD. Conclusion: Hepatocyte-specific deficiency of PLD1 ameliorates lipid accumulation and NAFLD development by inhibiting PPARγ/CD36 pathway conducted by PA.
