Project description:HGF has been reported to have both positive and negative effects on carcinogenesis. Here we show that the loss of c-Met signaling in hepatocytes enhanced rather than suppressed the early stages of chemical hepatocarcinogenesis. c-Met conditional knockout mice (c-metfl/fl, AlbCre+/-; MetLivKO) treated with N-nitrosodiethylamine (DEN) developed significantly more and bigger tumors and with a shorter latency as compared with control (wt/wt, AlbCre+/-; Cre-Ctrl) mice. Accelerated tumor development was associated with increased rate of cell proliferation and prolonged activation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. MetLivKO livers treated with DEN also displayed elevated lipid peroxidation, decreased ratio of reduced glutathione (GSH) to oxidized glutathione (GSSG), and upregulation of superoxide dismutase 1 (Sod1) and heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), all consistent with increased oxidative stress. Likewise, gene expression profiling performed at 3 and 5 months after DEN treatment revealed upregulation of genes associated with cell proliferation and stress responses in c-Met mutant livers. The negative effects of c-Met-deficiency were reversed by chronic oral administration of anti-oxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC). NAC blocked the EGFR activation and reduced the DEN-initiated hepatocarcinogenesis to the levels of Cre-Ctrl mice. These results argue that intact HGF/c-Met signaling is essential for maintaining normal redox homeostasis in the liver and has tumor suppressor effect(s) during the early stages of DEN-induced hepatocarcinogenesis.

Project description:Autotaxin (ATX, Enpp2) is a secreted lysophospholipase D catalyzing the production of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a pleiotropic growth factor-like phospholipid. Upregulated ATX expression has been detected in various chronic inflammatory disorders and different types of cancer; among them increased ATX mRNA or immunohistochemical staining has been suggested in Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients. Conditional deletion of ATX/Enpp2 specifically from hepatocytes, in AlbEnpp2-/- mice, attenuated the DEN/CCl4-mediated HCC development in mice. To obtain mechanistic insights into the mode of action of the ATX/LPA axis in HCC development, we performed whole liver, genome wide expression profiling of DEN/CCl4-induced HCC upon the genetic deletion of Autotaxin (ATX) in AlbEnpp2-/- mice in comparison with DEN/CCl4-treated and untreated wt littermate mice.

Project description:As the central hub metabolic organ bodily, the liver is paramount to keep whole-body energy homeostasis. Further, mitochondria are the central metabolic hub within cells to connect the main catabolized, energy production, and hormonal signaling pathways. It is evident that mitochondrial dysfunction may play a critical role in the development of NASH. Accordingly, understanding the underlying mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction is of importance to develop therapies for NASH. Here, we report that mice with hepatocyte-specific deletion of Tid1, encoding a mitochondrial cochaperone, tended to develop NASH-dependent HCC. The hepatocellular nodules were developed in 3-month DEN-treated Tid1-/- mice. At the age of 6 months, the DEN-treated Tid1-/- mice showed a higher number of tumors and greater tumor size than the DEN-treated Tid1+/- mice, followed by the DEN-treated WT mice. To gain insights into the mRNA changes during NASH-HCC progress, we performed an RNA-seq analysis with livers collected from 6-month DEN-treated mice.

Project description:Genetic polymorphisms that impair VLDL secretion are linked to hepatic steatosis, fibrosis and hepatocellular cancer (HCC). Liver-specific deletion of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (Mttp-LKO) impairs VLDL assembly, promoting hepatic steatosis and fibrosis, which are attenuated in Mttp-LKO mice with germline Fabp1 deletion (Fabp1/Mttp DKO) mice. Here we examine the impact of impaired VLDL secretion in Mttp-LKO mice on HCC incidence and progression in comparison to Fabp1/Mttp DKO mice. DEN treated Mttp-LKO mice exhibited steatosis with increased tumor burden compared to flox controls, while diethylnitrosamine (DEN)- treated Fabp1/Mttp DKO mice exhibited a paradoxical increase in tumor burden and >50% mortality by 50 weeks. Lipidomic surveys revealed progressive enrichment in distinct triglyceride species in livers from Mttp-LKO mice with further enrichment in Fabp1/Mttp DKO mice. RNAseq analysis performed on liver tissue at 6 months revealed mRNA changes suggesting altered monocarboxylic acid utilization and increased aerobic glycolysis, while hepatocytes from Fabp1/Mttp DKO mice exhibited increased capacity to utilize glucose and glutamine. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that hepatic tumorigenesis is increased in mice with impaired VLDL secretion and further accelerated via pathways including altered fatty acid compartmentalization and shifts in hepatic energy utilization.

Project description:To further investigate gene expression in DEN-induced liver cancer in mice with Otud3 gene knockout, we employed RNA-seq profiling as a discovery platform to identify the pathways or biological processes potentially responsible for the occurrence of DEN-induced liver cancer in both wildtype and Otud3 knockout mice. Liver cancer tissues from Otud3 knockout mice and their littermates, with or without a 14-day-old DEN injection, were utilized as samples for analysis.

Keywords: compound treatment design To address a role for c-Met in liver carcinogenesis, we employed a hepatocyte specific c-Met conditional knockout mouse model generated in our laboratory. Mice received a single intraperitoneal injection of 10 µg/g body weight of N-nitrosodiethylamine (DEN) (Sigma-Aldrich, Inc., St. Louis, MO, USA) at 14 days of age. Livers were examined at 3 and 5 months after DEN injection. Expression profiling was conducted on five animals from each genotype per time point. Total RNA pooled from five wild-type B6/129 strain mouse livers was used as universal hybridization reference. All experiments were performed in duplicates following a dye-swapping design. Arrays were scanned with a GenePix 4000A scanner (Axon Instruments Ltd., Burlingame, CA) in a way to achieve optimal signal intensity at both channels with less than 1% saturated spots. After excluding the invalid features, all arrays were normalized to the 50th percentile of the median signal intensity using the mAdb data analysis suite (http://nciarray.nci.nih.gov/). Unsupervised cluster analysis was performed with the Cluster and TreeView programs (http://rana.lbl.gov/EisenSoftware.htm). The BRB ArrayTools V3.3.0 software package (Biometric Research Branch, National Cancer Institute; http://linus.nci.nih.gov/BRB-ArrayTools.html) was used for the supervised comparison. Differentially expressed genes were selected using a univariate 2-sample t-test (P<0.001) with a random variance model (15). Functional classification of the significant genes was based on the Gene Ontology (GO) annotations (www.geneontology.org).

Project description:The diethylnitrosamine HCC rat model (DEN-HCC) is a useful preclinical model mirroring human hepatocellular carcinoma. To overcome tumor heterogeneity of human HCCs linked to different etiologies and clonal selection, rat HCC samples were compared with matched non-tumor livers in order to identify HCC-related genes involved in the carcinogenetic process. Specifically, male Wistar rats received DEN (Sigma-Aldrich) in the drinking water (100 mg/L) for 8 weeks. Two weeks later the end of DEN treatment, animals were monitored by ultrasound imaging. Animals were euthanized 1 or 2 months after the end of DEN treatment, when the major diameter of at least one HCC nodule reached a dimension of 10 mm. Samples were collected for molecular biology and total RNA for microarray analysis was extracted by using Trizol. Two rat livers from untreated mice were included in the analysis.

Project description:Fenofibrate is a specific agonist of the nuclear receptor PPARa. To identify the gene expression under the strict dependence of hepatic PPARa activity, we generated a new mouse strain of PPARa-specific deletion in hepatocyte (albumin-Cre+/- Pparaflox/flox or LKO) and we compared them to total Ppara KO (KO), wild-type (WT) and liver WT (albumin-Cre-/- Pparaflox/flox or LWT) mice. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in liver of Ppara LKO, LWT, Ppara KO and WT male mice. There are 36 liver samples, each from an individual mouse. The samples are from Ppara liver KO (LKO), Ppara KO (KO), wild-type (WT) and liver WT (LWT) male mice of 14 week-old from the same genetic background (C57Bl/6J) treated with Fenofibrate (100 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (aqueous solution of gum Arabic 3%) by daily gavage for 10 days. n= 4 mice for LKO, LWT and WT genotypes treated with vehicle; n=3 for KO mice treated with vehicle; n=5 mice for LWT, LKO and KO genotypes treated with fenofibrate; n=4 WT mice treated with fenofibrate. All mice were sacrified at ZT14.
