Transcription factor cascades during fasting amplify gluconeogenesis and instigate a secondary wave of ketogenic gene transcription. [RNA-Seq 2]

ABSTRACT: During fasting, bodily homeostasis is maintained due to hepatic production of glucose (via gluconeogenesis) and ketone bodies (via ketogenesis). The major hormones governing hepatic fuel production are glucagon and glucocorticoids who initiate a complex transcriptional program aimed at supporting gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis. Here, we found that in addition to the known metabolic genes induced by glucagon and glucocorticoids, these hormones each induce a set of genes encoding transcription factors (TFs) thereby initiating transcriptional cascades. Glucocorticoids activate the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) that induces the genes encoding two TFs - C/EBPβ and PPARα. Transcriptomic analysis combined with gene silencing revealed the role of C/EBPβ as an amplifier of hormone-induced gluconeogenesis. In contrast, the GR-PPARα cascade initiated a secondary transcriptional wave of genes supporting ketogenesis. We show that a dual treatment of glucocorticoids with a PPARα agonist leads to synergistic induction of ketogenic genes and that this induction is dependent on protein synthesis. Genome-wide analysis of enhancer dynamics revealed numerous enhancers activated by the GR-PPARα cascade. These enhancers are proximal to ketogenic genes, are enriched for the PPARα binding motif and show increased PPARα binding as profiled by ChIP-seq. In summary, this study reveals abundant TF cascades occurring during fasting. These cascades serve two separated purposes: the amplification of the primary gluconeogenic transcriptional program and the induction of a secondary gene program aimed at enhancing ketogenesis.

Characterization of chromatin and gene expression changes during fasting in mouse liver [RNA-Seq]

Project description:During fasting the liver supplies the organism’s energy demands by producing glucose and ketones. Fuel production during fasting is temporally organized whereby glucose serves as the major fuel produced in short-term fasting while ketones are produced in longer fasts as gluconeogenic precursors deplete1. However, the regulatory process dictating this temporally-organized metabolic output is unexplored. Here we show that a cascade of transcription factors (TFs) sequentially activated by hormonal signals, TF gene expression and assisted loading onto specific ‘fasting enhancers’ generate a framework for the temporal organization of fuel production during fasting. Fasting led to massive chromatin re-organization, exposing enhancers in which a complex set of regulatory signals converge to regulate transcription. Glucagon secreted in early fasting activates cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB) leading to increased expression of many TF genes, including CCAAT enhancer binding protein β (C/EBPβ) which relaxes chromatin, thereby potentiating glucocorticoid receptor (GR) binding to fasting enhancers upon its activation by corticosterone in mid-term fasting. Then, GR augments glucagon-dependent gluconeogenesis but also supports a peroxisome proliferator receptor α (PPARα)-dependent ketogenic gene program to sustain ketogenesis during prolonged fasting. Our results bridge over a long-lasting gap between the characterized temporal organization of fuel output during fasting and the undefined role of transcription and chromatin regulation in generating this output. Because a de-regulated response to fasting is a hallmark of diabetes progression, these findings may promote our understanding of this complex disease

Transcriptional profiling of PPARα-/- and CREB3L3-/- livers reveals disparate regulation of hepatoproliferative and metabolic functions of PPARα

Project description:Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated receptor α (PPARα) and cAMP-Responsive Element Binding Protein 3-Like 3 (CREB3L3) are transcription factors involved in the regulation of lipid metabolism in the liver. The aim of the present study was to characterize the interrelationship between PPARα and CREB3L3 in regulating hepatic gene expression. Male wildtype, PPARα-/-, CREB3L3-/- and combined PPARα/CREB3L3-/- mice were subjected to a 16-hour fast or 4 days of ketogenic diet. Whole genome expression analysis was performed on liver samples. Under conditions of overnight fasting, the effects of PPARα ablation and CREB3L3 ablation on plasma triglyceride, plasma β-hydroxybutyrate, and hepatic gene expression were largely disparate, and showed only limited interdependence. Gene and pathway analysis underscored the importance of CREB3L3 in regulating (apo)lipoprotein metabolism, and of PPARα as master regulator of intracellular lipid metabolism. A small number of genes, including Fgf21 and Mfsd2a, were under dual control of PPARα and CREB3L3. By contrast, a strong interaction between PPARα and CREB3L3 ablation was observed during ketogenic diet feeding. Specifically, the pronounced effects of CREB3L3 ablation on liver damage and hepatic gene expression during ketogenic diet were almost completely abolished by the simultaneous ablation of PPARα. Loss of CREB3L3 influenced PPARα signalling in two major ways. Firstly, it reduced expression of PPARα and its target genes involved in fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis. In stark contrast, the hepatoproliferative function of PPARα was markedly activated by loss of CREB3L3. These data indicate that CREB3L3 ablation uncouples the hepatoproliferative and lipid metabolic effects of PPARα. Overall, except for the shared regulation of a very limited number of genes, the roles of PPARα and CREB3L3 in hepatic lipid metabolism are clearly distinct and are highly dependent on dietary status.

mTORC1 Activation is not sufficient to suppress hepatic PPAR-a signalling or ketogenesis

Project description:we examined if the activation of the anabolic program mediated by the activation of the mTorc1 complex in the fasted state could suppress the robust catabolic programing and enhanced Pparα transcriptional of mice with a liver specific defect in mitochondrial long chain fatty acid oxidation (Cpt2L-/- mice). We found that the activation of mTorc1 in the fasted state was not sufficient to repress Pparα responsive genes or ketogenesis.

Repeated fasting events sensitize chromatin and gene expression to support augmented ketogenesis

Project description:Mammals evolved to withstand frequent fasting periods due to hepatic production of glucose and ketone bodies. Because the fasting response is transcriptionally-regulated, we asked whether enhancer dynamics impose a transcriptional program during recurrent fasting and whether this produces effects distinct from a single fasting bout. We found that mice undergoing alternate-day fasting (ADF) respond to a following fasting bout profoundly differently from mice first experiencing fasting. Hundreds of genes enabling ketogenesis are ‘sensitized’, i.e. induced more strongly by fasting following ADF. Enhancers regulating these genes are also sensitized and harbor increased binding of the major ketogenic transcription factor. ADF mice show augmented ketogenesis and their sensitized enhancers are covalently marked with ketone body residues. Thus, we found that past fasting events are ‘remembered’ in hepatocytes, sensitizing their enhancers to the next fasting bout and augmenting ketogenesis. Our findings shed light on transcriptional regulation mediating adaptation to repeated environmental signals.

Systemic and transcriptional response to intermittent fasting and fasting-mimicking diet in mice

Project description:Dietary restriction (DR) has multiple beneficial effects on health and longevity and can also improve the efficacy of certain therapies. Diets used to instigate DR are diverse and the corresponding response is not uniformly measured. We compared the systemic and liver-specific transcriptional response to intermittent fasting (IF) and commercially available fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) after short and long-term use in C57BL/6J mice. We show that neither DR regimen causes observable adverse effects in mice. The weight loss was limited to 20% and was quickly compensated during refeeding days. The slightly higher weight loss upon FMD versus IF correlated with stronger fasting response assessed by lower glucose levels and higher ketone body, free fatty acids, and especially FGF21 concentrations in blood. RNA sequencing demonstrated similar transcriptional programs in the liver after both regimens, with PPARα signalling as top enriched pathway, while on individual gene level FMD more potently increased gluconeogenesis-related, and PPARα and p53 target gene expression compared to IF. Repeated IF induced similar transcriptional responses as acute IF. However, repeated cycles of FMD resulted in blunted expression of genes involved in ketogenesis and fatty acid oxidation. Short-term FMD causes more pronounced changes in blood parameters and slightly higher weight loss than IF, while both activate similar pathways (particularly PPARα signalling) in the liver. On individual gene level FMD induces a stronger transcriptional response, whereas cyclic application blunts transcriptional upregulation of fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis only in FMD. Hence, our comparative characterization of IF and FMD protocols renders both as effective DR regimens and serves as resource in the fasting research field.
