Rescue of lysosomal acid lipase deficiency in mice by AAV liver gene transfer

ABSTRACT: Lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutation in LIPA gene, which results in fat accumulation in liver and spleen leading to multi-organ failure. The severe form of LAL-D (infantile-onset; ≤5% residual LAL activity), if left untreated, results in premature death within the first year of life due to failure to thrive and hepatic insufficiency. Enzyme replacement therapy is the only available supportive treatment consisting in weekly systemic injection of recombinant LAL. Here, we characterize a novel LAL-D mouse model and develop a curative gene therapy treatment based on the in vivo administration of recombinant AAV8 (rAAV8) vector encoding for human LIPA transgene under the control of hepatocyte-specific promoter. We define the minimal AAV dose required to rescue disease lethality and to produce and secrete sufficient LAL to correct cholesterol and triglycerides accumulation in liver, spleen, blood cells and plasma. Finally, using liver transcriptomic and biochemical analysis, we also show the impairment of mitochondria associated with LAL-D and its recovery by gene therapy. Overall, our in vivo gene therapy strategy achieves stable long-term LAL expression to correct disease phenotype in LAL-D mouse model and opens a new therapeutic option for LAL-D patients.

Hepatic Lysosomal Acid Lipase Overexpression Worsens Hepatic Inflammation in Mice Fed a Western Diet

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by the accumulation of lipid droplets (LD) in hepatocytes. NAFLD development and progression is associated with an increase in hepatic cholesterol and decreased autophagy and lipophagy flux. Previous studies have shown that the expression of lysosomal acid lipase (gene=LIPA, protein=LAL), which can hydrolyze both triglyceride and cholesteryl esters, is inversely correlated with the severity of NAFLD. In addition, ablation of LAL activity results in profound NAFLD. Based on this, we predicted that overexpressing LIPA in the livers of mice fed a Western diet (FPC) would prevent the development of NAFLD. As expected, mice fed the FPC diet exhibited numerous markers of NAFLD including hepatomegaly, lipid accumulation, and inflammation. Unexpectedly, LAL overexpression did not attenuate steatosis and had only minor effects on neutral lipid composition. However, LAL overexpression exacerbated inflammatory gene expression and infiltration of immune cells in mice fed the FPC diet. LAL overexpression also resulted in abnormal phagosome accumulation and lysosomal lipid accumulation depending upon the dietary treatment. Hepatic overexpression of LAL drove immune cell infiltration and inflammation and did not attenuate the development of NAFLD suggesting that targeting LAL expression is not a viable route to treat NAFLD.

Pronounced metabolic alterations and susceptibility to inflammation, fibrosis, and cancer in livers from lysosomal acid lipase-deficient mice

Project description:Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the sole lysosomal enzyme responsible for the degradation of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols at acidic pH. Impaired LAL activity leads to LAL deficiency (LAL-D), a severe and fatal disease characterized by ectopic lysosomal lipid accumulation. Reduced LAL activity also contributes to the development and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). To advance our understanding of LAL-related liver pathologies, we performed comprehensive proteomic profiling of livers from mice with systemic genetic loss of LAL (Lal-/-) and from mice with hepatocyte-specific LAL-D (hepLal-/-). Lal-/- mice exhibited drastic proteome alterations, including dysregulation of multiple proteins related to metabolism, inflammation, liver fibrosis, and cancer. Global loss of LAL activity impaired both acidic and neutral lipase activities and resulted in hepatic lipid accumulation, indicating a complete metabolic shift in Lal-/- livers. Hepatic inflammation and immune cell infiltration were evident, with numerous upregulated inflammation-related gene ontology biological process terms. In contrast, both young and mature hepLal-/- mice displayed only minor changes in the liver proteome, suggesting that loss of LAL solely in hepatocytes does not phenocopy metabolic alterations observed in mice globally lacking LAL. These findings provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying liver dysfunction in LAL-D and may help in understanding why decreased LAL activity contributes to NAFLD. Our study highlights the importance of LAL in maintaining liver homeostasis and demonstrates the drastic consequences of its global deficiency on the liver proteome and liver function.

Lanifibranor reduces inflammation and improves dyslipidemia in lysosomal acid lipase-deficient mice

Project description:Background & Aims Recent studies showed that patients suffering from lysosomal acid lipase-deficiency (LAL-D) benefit tremendously from enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), however, the outcomes on liver histology in treated patients were inconsistent. The promising results of the pan-PPAR agonist lanifibranor in alleviating liver inflammation in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis prompted us to investigate the effects of lanifibranor on liver pathology in LAL knockout (Lal-/-) mice. Methods Lal-/- mice were daily gavaged with lanifibranor or vehicle for 21 days. The effects of the treatment were assessed by measuring body and organ weights, plasma lipids and lipoproteins, as well as hematological parameters, followed by liver proteomics and metabolomics. Results Lanifibranor treatment slightly altered organ weights without affecting the total body weight of Lal-/- mice. We observed major changes in the proteome, with multiple proteins related to lipid metabolism, peroxisomal, and mitochondrial activities being upregulated and inflammation-related proteins being downregulated in the livers of treated mice. Hepatic lipid levels and histology remained unaltered, whereas plasma triglyceride and total cholesterol levels were decreased and the lipoprotein profile of lanifibranor-treated Lal-/- mice improved. Conclusions Lanifibranor treatment positively affected liver inflammation and lipoprotein homeostasis in Lal-/- mice. These findings support further evaluation of lanifibranor in combination with ERT for phenotype improvement in Lal-/- mice and a possible exploration avenue for the treatment of LAL-D in humans.

Regional differences in the small intestinal proteome of control mice and of mice lacking lysosomal acid lipase

Project description:Background: Despite recent studies investigating the involvement of single cells in regional differences of the small intestine (SI), the metabolic contribution of the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum to the overall intestinal metabolism is still unclear. Basic procedures and main findings: Using an untargeted proteomics approach, we identified similarities and differences between the three intestinal tracts of C57BL/6J mice and found that proteins highly abundant in the mouse ileum correlated with high ileal expression of the corresponding genes in humans. Consistent with human data, we detected increasing abundance of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) in C57BL/6J mice from the duodenum to ileum. LAL is the only enzyme known to degrade triacylglycerols and cholesteryl esters within the lysosome. Lipid accumulation in various organs along with gastrointestinal disturbances and malabsorption are typical features of patients and mice with LAL deficiency. We previously demonstrated that macrophages massively infiltrate the SI of Lal-deficient (KO) mice, especially the duodenum. To identify potential mechanisms behind the intestinal lipid accumulation and infiltration of immune cells, we used untargeted proteomics. Our results revealed a general inflammatory response and a common lipid-associated macrophage phenotype in all three intestinal segments of Lal KO mice, accompanied by higher expression of GPNMB and increased concentrations of circulating sTREM2. However, only duodenal macrophages activated a metabolic switch from lipids to other pathways such as glycolysis, TCA cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation to meet their high energy demand. Unexpectedly, these pathways were downregulated in the jejunum and ileum of Lal KO mice. Conclusion: Our results provide new insights into the process of absorption in control mice and the basis for novel markers of LAL-D and/or systemic inflammation in LAL-D.

Gene Expression profiling of rice leaves undergoing an innate immune response induced by XOO secreted cell wall degrading enzyme LipA (Lipase/Esterase A)

Project description:The plant cell wall degrading enzyme LipA (Lipase/Esterase A) is a Type II secretion system secreted protein of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo; the casual of bacterial leaf blight of rice). LipA is an Xoo virulence factor. However, LipA is a double edged sword for Xoo as it induces rice defense responses such as programmed cell death/hypersensitive response like reaction (HR) and callose deposition. Prior treatment with LipA enhances resistance against subseqent Xoo infection. In order to understand the molecular events associated with Esterase (LipA) induced innate immune responsein rice , whole genome transcriptional profiling was performed using Affymetrix Rice GeneChips

Targeting LIPA independent of its lipase activity is a therapeutic strategy in solid tumors via induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) has a poor clinical outcome, due to a lack of actionable therapeutic targets. Herein we define lysosomal acid lipase A (LIPA) as a viable molecular target in TNBC and identify a stereospecific small molecule (ERX-41) that binds LIPA. ERX-41 induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress resulting in cell death, and this effect is on target as evidenced by specific LIPA mutations providing resistance. Importantly, we demonstrate that ERX-41 activity is independent of LIPA lipase function but dependent on its ER localization. Mechanistically, ERX-41 binding of LIPA decreases expression of multiple ER-resident proteins involved in protein folding. This targeted vulnerability has a large therapeutic window, with no adverse effects either on normal mammary epithelial cells or in mice. Our study implicates a targeted strategy for solid tumors, including breast, brain, pancreatic and ovarian, whereby small, orally bioavailable molecules targeting LIPA block protein folding, induce ER stress and result in tumor cell death.

Whole genome expression profiling of rice leaves treated with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae secreted cell wall degrading lipase/esteraseA (LipA) at early time points, 30 min. and 120 min.

Project description:Treatment of rice tissues with purified preparations of a Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) secreted plant cell wall degrading enzyme, Lipase/Esterase (LipA), elicits cell wall damage induced innate immune responses. LipA activity is required for induction of defense responses. In order to characterize the early events during elaboration of cell wall degrading enzyme, Lipase/Esterase (LipA) induced innate immune response in rice, we have performed global gene expression profiling of rice leaves treated with purified LipA at early time points, 30 minutes and 120min, after treatment. Whole genome transcriptional profiling was performed using Affymetrix Rice GeneChips Leaves of two weeks old green house grown susceptible rice cultivar (Taichung Native-1; TN-1) were infiltrated with either 30-40μl of purified Xoo Lipase/Esterase (LipA)(500μg/ml) or with buffer (10mM potassium phosphate buffer pH 6.0) alone (as described in Jha et al. 2007; MPMI vol 20, pp 31-40). The plants were shifted to a growth chamber (28oC; 80% relative humidity; 12/12h light/dark cycle) 48 hours before the treatment. 20-30 leaf pieces covering the infiltrated zone from each of the treatments were harvested 30 min. and 120 min. after infiltration. Total RNA isolated from the pooled samples was subjected for expression analysis using Affymetrix GeneChip System. The experiment was repeated with three different biological replicates using RNA isolated from three batches of rice leaves treated with the freshly purified Xoo Lipase/Esterase (LipA)and the buffer Gene Expression profiling of rice leaves undergoing an innate immune respone induced by LipA (Lipase/Esterase A) enzyme

ANGPTL4 suppress clear cell renal cell carcinoma via inhibition lysosomal acid lipase

Project description:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), the most common form of kidney cancer, is a heterogeneous disease with clear cell RCC (ccRCC) being the most prevalent and aggressive subtype. While most ccRCC tumors have elevated expression of angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4), in our study we identified a significant subset of patients whose cancers show no increase in ANGPTL4 expression. These patients have a worse prognosis compared to the patients with high expression of ANGPTL4. These ANGPTL4-low cancers are characterized by the increased frequency of wild-type Von Hippel-Lindau (wt VHL), a gene that is commonly mutated in ccRCC, and an enrichment for genes associated with lipid metabolism. Using RCC tumor models with wild type VHL, we demonstrate that ANGPTL4 behaves as a tumor suppressor. The loss of ANGPTL4 in ccRCC cell lines results in increased tumor growth and colony formation in a lysosomal acid lipase (LAL)-dependent manner, a phenotype rescued by the expression of N-terminus ANGPTL4. At the mechanistic level, the loss of ANGPTL4 increases lysosomal acid lipase activity in ccRCC cells. This data suggests that ANGPTL4 enacts its tumor-suppressive effects in ccRCC by regulating LAL activity. Importantly, the identified patient cohort with low ANGPTL4 expression may exhibit increased reliance on lipid metabolism, which can be a point of target for future therapy.

Off-target effects of the lysosomal acid lipase inhibitors Lalistat-1 and Lalistat-2 on neutral lipid hydrolases

Project description:Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the key enzyme of lysosomal lipid hydrolysis, which degrades cholesteryl esters (CE), triacylglycerols (TG), diacylglycerols (DG), and retinyl esters. The role of LAL in various cellular processes has mostly been studied in LAL-deficient (Lal-/-) mice, which share phenotypical characteristics with humans suffering from LAL deficiency. In vitro, the cell-specific functions of LAL have been commonly investigated by using the LAL inhibitors Lalistat-1 (L1) and Lalistat-2 (L2). Here, we show that pharmacological LAL inhibition but not genetic loss of LAL impairs isoproterenol-stimulated lipolysis and neutral TG hydrolase (TGH) and CE hydrolase (CEH) activities in mature adipocytes, indicating that L1 and L2 inhibit other lipid hydrolases apart from LAL. Since adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) are the major enzymes that degrade cytosolic TG and CE, respectively, at neutral pH, we hypothesized that L1 and L2 also inhibit ATGL and/or HSL through off-target effects. In fact, both inhibitors drastically reduced neutral CEH activity in cells overexpressing mouse and human HSL and neutral TGH activity in cells overexpressing mouse and human ATGL, albeit to a lesser extent. By performing serine hydrolase-specific activity-based labeling in combination with quantitative proteomics, we confirmed that L2 inhibits HSL and other lipid hydrolases, whereas L1 treatment results in less pronounced inhibition of neutral lipid hydrolases. These results demonstrate that commonly used concentrations of L2 (and L1) are not suitable for investigating the role of LAL-specific lipolysis in lysosomal function, signaling pathways, and autophagy.
