Hepatic inactivation of murine Surf4 results in marked reduction in plasma cholesterol

ABSTRACT: SURF4 is a cargo receptor that has been implicated in the intracellular trafficking of PCSK9 and APOB - proteins involved in cholesterol transport and metabolism. We generated hepatic SURF4-deficient mice (Surf4(fl/fl) Alb-Cre+) to investigate the physiologic role of SURF4 in vivo

Hepatic inactivation of murine <i>Surf4</i> results in marked reduction in plasma cholesterol.

Project description:PCSK9 negatively regulates low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) abundance on the cell surface, leading to decreased hepatic clearance of LDL particles and increased levels of plasma cholesterol. We previously identified SURF4 as a cargo receptor that facilitates PCSK9 secretion in HEK293T cells (Emmer et al., 2018). Here, we generated hepatic SURF4-deficient mice (Surf4fl/fl Alb-Cre+) to investigate the physiologic role of SURF4 in vivo. Surf4fl/fl Alb-Cre+ mice exhibited normal viability, gross development, and fertility. Plasma PCSK9 levels were reduced by ~60% in Surf4fl/fl Alb-Cre+ mice, with a corresponding ~50% increase in steady state LDLR protein abundance in the liver, consistent with SURF4 functioning as a cargo receptor for PCSK9. Surprisingly, these mice exhibited a marked reduction in plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels out of proportion to the partial increase in hepatic LDLR abundance. Detailed characterization of lipoprotein metabolism in these mice instead revealed a severe defect in hepatic lipoprotein secretion, consistent with prior reports of SURF4 also promoting the secretion of apolipoprotein B (APOB). Despite a small increase in liver mass and lipid content, histologic evaluation revealed no evidence of steatohepatitis or fibrosis in Surf4fl/fl Alb-Cre+ mice. Acute depletion of hepatic SURF4 by CRISPR/Cas9 or liver-targeted siRNA in adult mice confirms these findings. Together, these data support the physiologic significance of SURF4 in the hepatic secretion of PCSK9 and APOB-containing lipoproteins and its potential as a therapeutic target in atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases.

Met Expression Signature in Hepatocytes

Project description:To identify HGF/Met regulated genes, we performed expression microarray analysis after inducible activation of Met receptor in primary cultures of hepatocytes established from wild-type control (Alb-Cre +/-) and Met conditional knockout mice (Alb-Cre +/-; Met Fl/Fl). Keywords: time series design

siRNAs induced long-term liver ApoB mRNA knockdown significantly lowers serum cholesterol in a mouse model with human-like serum lipids

Project description:Increased serum apoB and associated low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) levels are well correlated with an increased risk of coronary disease. Apo E-/- and LDLr -/- mice have been extensively used for studies of coronary atherosclerosis. These animals show atherosclerotic lesions similar to those in humans, but their serum lipids are low in apoB containing LDL particles. We describe the development of a new mouse model with a human-like lipid profile. Ldlr+/- CETP+/- hemizygous mice carry a single copy of the human CETP transgene and a single copy of a LDL receptor mutation. To evaluate the apoB pathways in this mouse model, we used novel siRNAs formulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). ApoB siRNAs induced up to 95% reduction of liver ApoB mRNA and serum apoB protein, and a significant lowering of serum LDL in Ldlr+/- CETP+/- mice. ApoB targeting is specific, dose dependent and shows lipid lowering effects for over three weeks. Although specific TGs were affected by ApoB KD, and the total plasma lipid levels were decreased by 70%, the overall lipid distribution did not change. Results presented here demonstrate a new mouse model for investigating additional targets within the ApoB pathways using the siRNA modality. Two oligoes specific for ApoB were used to knock down apoB expression in C57Bl6 or B6-Ldlr(tm1)Tg(APOA1-CETP) mice. Gene expression profiling was performed with Affymetrix Merck Custom Mouse 1.0 microarrays (GPL9734).

IκBζ Regulates the Development of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease through the Attenuation of Hepatic Steatosis in Mice

Project description:IκBζ is a transcriptional regulator that augments inflammatory responses from the Toll-like receptor or interleukin signaling. These innate immune responses contribute to the progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD); however, the role of IκBζ in the pathogenesis of NAFLD remains elusive. We investigated whether IκBζ was involved in the progression of NAFLD in mice. We generated hepatocyte-specific IκBζ-deficient mice (Alb-Cre; Nfkbizfl/fl) by crossing Nfkbizfl/fl mice with Alb-Cre transgenic mice. NAFLD was induced by feeding the mice a choline-deﬁcient, L-amino acid-deﬁned, high-fat diet (CDAHFD). CDAHFD-induced IκBζ expression in the liver was observed in Nfkbizfl/fl mice, but not in Alb-Cre; Nfkbizfl/fl mice. Contrary to our initial expectation, IκBζ deletion in hepatocytes accelerated the progression of NAFLD after CDAHFD treatment. Although the increased expression of inflammatory cytokines and apoptosis-related proteins by CDAHFD remained unchanged between Nfkbizfl/fl and Alb-Cre; Nfkbizfl/fl mice, early-stage steatosis of the liver was significantly augmented in Alb-Cre; Nfkbizfl/fl mice. Overexpression of IκBζ in hepatocytes via the adeno-associated virus vector attenuated liver steatosis caused by the CDAHFD in wild-type C57BL/6 mice. This preventive effect of IκBζ overexpression on steatosis was not observed without transcriptional activity. Microarray analysis revealed a correlation between IκBζ expression and the changes of factors related to triglyceride biosynthesis and lipoprotein uptake. Our data suggest that hepatic IκBζ attenuates the progression of NAFLD possibly through the regulation of the factors related to triglyceride metabolism.
