Project description:Acetaminophen (APAP) is one of the most widely consumed and prescribed drugs. APAP overdose is one of the leading causes of intrinsic drug-induced liver injury (DILI), acute liver failure (ALF), and liver transplantation in the Western world. Mg2+, essential for health, plays a role in virtually every process within the human cell. The cellular transporter family cyclin M, also known as CNNM, plays a key role in Mg2+ transport across the cell membranes in different organs. Here, we identified that the expression of CNNM4 is elevated in the liver of patients with APAP-induced liver injury (AILI), with a concomitant disturbance in serum Mg2+ levels. We demonstrated that, in the liver, APAP interferes with the Mg2+ mitochondrial reservoir via CNNM4, which affects ATP production and ROS generation, further boosting endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress of the hepatocytes. Importantly, the CNNM4 mutant T495I showed no effect. Finally, a shift in localization of CNNM4 from membrane to ER was shown under APAP toxicity. Therapeutic targeting of Cnnm4 in the liver with nanoparticles and GalNAc-formulated siRNA provides efficient protection from AILI by restoring hepatocyte Mg2+ homeostasis and by inducing hepatocyte restoration. Our results suggest that inhibition of Cnnm4 may represent an alternative route for the treatment of DILI..

Project description:Acetaminophen (APAP) is the major cause of drug-induced liver injury, with limited treatment options. APAP overdose invokes excessive oxidative stress that triggers mitochondria-to-nucleus retrograde pathways, contributing to APAP-induced liver injury (AILI). Mesenchymal stem cell therapy is a promising tool for acute liver failure. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the beneficial effects of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (AMSC) therapy on AILI and reveal the potential therapeutic mechanisms. C57BL/6 mice are used as the animal model and AML12 normal murine hepatocytes as the cellular model of APAP overdose. Immunohistochemical staining, western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, and RNA sequencing assay are used for assessing the efficacy and validating mechanisms of AMSC therapy. We found AMSC therapy effectively ameliorated AILI, while delayed AMSC injection lost its efficacy related to the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)-mediated mitochondrial retrograde pathways. We further found that AMSC therapy inhibited JNK activation and mitochondrial translocation, reducing APAP-induced mitochondrial damage. The down-regulation of activated Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and DNA damage response proteins in AMSC treated mice liver indicated AMSC blocked the JNK-ATM pathway. Overall, AMSC may be an effective treatment for AILI by inhibiting JNK-ATM mitochondrial retrograde pathway, which improves APAP-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and liver injury.

Project description:Drug Induced-liver injury (DILI) is a significant cause of acute liver failure (ALF) and liver transplantation in the Western world. APAP overdose is a main contributor of DILI, leading to hepatocyte cell death through necrosis. Herein, we identified that neddylation, an essential post-translational modification involved in the mitochondria function, was upregulated in liver biopsies from APAP-induced liver injury (AILI) patients and in mice treated with an APAP overdose. MLN4924, an inhibitor of the NEDD8 activating enzyme (NAE-1), ameliorated necrosis and boost liver regeneration in AILI. To understand how neddylation interferes in AILI, whole-body biotinylated NEDD8 (bioNEDD8) and Ubiquitin (bioUB) transgenic mice were investigated under APAP overdose with and without MLN4924. The CDP-DAG synthase TAM41, responsible to produce cardiolipin essential for mitochondrial activity, was found modulated under AILI and restoring its levels by inhibiting neddylation. Understanding this ubiquitin-like crosstalk in AILI is essential for developing promising targeted inhibitors for DILI treatment.

Project description:Acetaminophen (APAP) is the most widely used analgesic in the United States. Its acute overdose causes liver damage by inducing localized centrilobular cell death. Because of widespread use, APAP toxicity has become the most frequent cause of acute liver failure. Many factors have been associated with the susceptibility of APAP-induced liver injuries, however, few of them have been confirmed and used in the clinical setting. We tried to identify the subset of factors that could affect susceptibility to APAP-induced liver injury by an integrative genetic, transcriptional and 2-D-NMR-based metabolomic analysis across a panel of inbred mouse strains.

Experiment Overall Design: After a single administration of high dose (300 mg/kg i.p.) APAP, liver and blood samples were extracted from 3 sensitive (C57B6, DBA/2, and SmJ) and 1 resistant (SJL) mice strains at 0, 3 and 6 hour after APAP exposure. Endogenous metabolites from liver samples were analyzed by 1H-13C 2-dimensional-NMR and gene expression changes occurring within these liver samples were simultaneously analyzed using Affymetrix microarrays. The transcriptional and metabolomic data was jointly analyzed, and functional information within the Gene Ontology database was used to identify the subset of genes that could affect susceptibility to APAP-induced liver injury in the early phase response.

Project description:Overdose of acetaminophen (APAP) is the major cause of acute liver failure in the Western world with very limited treatment options. Previous studies from our groups and others have shown that timely activation of liver regeneration is a critical determinant of transplant-free survival of APAP-induced acute liver failure (ALF) patients. We used affy microarrays to explore the mechanisms of transcriptional expression in YAP-KO mice after 300mg/kg APAP overdose.

Project description:Purpose: This study investigated the protective effect and further elucidated the mechanisms of action of O. elatus on acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury (AILI). Methods: O. elatus chlorogenic-enriched fraction (OEB) was administrated orally daily for seven consecutive days, followed by a single intraperitoneal injection of an overdose of APAP after the final OEB administration. Results: OEB decreased alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total cholesterol, total triglycerides contents, regulated superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione, malondialdehyde levels, and affected the metabolism of APAP. Furthermore, OEB treatment regulated lipid metabolism, activated the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors signaling pathway in mice with AILI, affected immune cells, and decreased neutrophil infiltration. Conclusions: This study indicated that OEB is a potential drug candidate for the prevention of APAP-induced hepatotoxicity and elucidated a potential protective mechanism by OEB.

Project description:The role of non-parenchymal cells (NPCs) in the early phase of acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury (AILI) remains unclear. Therefore, single-cell sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed to explore the heterogeneity and immune network of NPCs in the livers of mice with AILI. Mice were challenged with saline, 300 mg/kg APAP, or 750 mg/kg APAP (n=3 for each group). After 3 h, the liver samples were collected, digested, and subjected to scRNA-seq. Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were performed to confirm the expression of Makorin ring finger protein 1 (Mkrn1). We identified 14 distinct cell subtypes among the 120,599 cells. A variety of NPCs were involved even in the early stages of AILI, indicating highly heterogeneous transcriptome dynamics. Cholangiocyte cluster 3 with high Deleted in malignant brain tumors 1 (Dmbt1) expression was found to perform drug metabolism and detoxification functions. Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells displayed fenestrae loss and angiogenesis. Macrophage cluster 1 displayed an M1 polarization phenotype, whereas cluster 3 tended to exhibit M2 polarization. Kupffer cells (KCs) particularly highly expressed Cxcl2 exhibiting pro-inflammatory effects. qRT-PCR and western blotting verified that LIFR-OSM axis might promote the activation of MAPK signaling pathway in RAW264.7 macrophages. Mkrn1 was highly expressed in the liver macrophages of AILI mice and patients with AILI. Interaction patterns between macrophages/KCs and other NPCs were complex and diverse. NPCs were highly heterogeneous and involved in the immune network in the early phase of AILI. In addition, we proposed that Mkrn1 may serve as a potential biomarker of AILI.

Project description:Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a leading cause of acute liver failure and the major reason for withdrawal of drugs from the market. Preclinical evaluation of drug candidates has failed to detect about 40% of potentially hepatotoxic compounds in humans. At the onset of liver injury in humans, currently used biomarkers have difficulty differentiating severe DILI from mild, and/or predict the outcome of injury for individual subjects. Therefore, new biomarker approaches for predicting and diagnosing DILI in humans are urgently needed. Recently, circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) such as miR-122 and miR-192 have emerged as promising biomarkers of liver injury in preclinical species and in DILI patients. In this study, we focused on examining global circulating miRNA profiles in serum samples from subjects with liver injury caused by accidental acetaminophen (APAP) overdose. Upon applying next generation high-throughput sequencing of small RNA libraries, we identified 36 miRNAs, including 3 novel miRNA-like small nuclear RNAs, which were enriched in the serum of APAP overdosed subjects. The set comprised miRNAs that are functionally associated with liver-specific biological processes and relevant to APAP toxic mechanisms. Although more patients need to be investigated, our study suggests that profiles of circulating miRNAs in human serum might provide additional biomarker candidates and possibly mechanistic information relevant to liver injury.

Project description:Fifty percent of all acute liver failure (ALF) cases in the United States are due to acetaminophen (APAP) overdose. Assessment of canonical features of liver injury, such as plasma alanine aminotransferase activities are poor predictors of acute liver failure (ALF), suggesting the involvement of additional mechanisms independent of hepatocyte death. Previous work demonstrated a severe overdose of APAP results in impaired regeneration, the induction of senescence by p21, and increased mortality. We hypothesized that a discrete population of p21+ hepatocytes acquired a secretory phenotype that directly impedes liver recovery after a severe APAP overdose. Leveraging in-house human APAP explant liver and publicly available singlenuclei RNAseq data, we identified a subpopulation of p21+ hepatocytes enriched in a unique secretome of factors, such as Cxcl14. Spatial transcriptomics in the mouse model of APAP overdose confirmed the presence of a p21+ hepatocyte population that directly surrounded the necrotic areas. In both male and female mice, we found a dose-dependent induction of p21 and persistent circulating levels of the p21-specific constituent, Cxcl14, in the plasma after a severe APAP overdose. In parallel experiments, we targeted either the putative senescent hepatocytes with the senolytic drugs, dasatinib and quercetin, or Cxcl14 with a neutralizing antibody. We found that targeting Cxcl14 greatly enhanced liver recovery after APAP-induced liver injury, while targeting the senescent hepatocyte had no effect. This data supports that the sustained induction of p21 in hepatocytes with persistent Cxcl14 secretion are critical mechanistic events leading to ALF in mice and human patients.
