Divergent role of Mitochondrial Amidoxime Reducing Component 1 (MARC1) in human and mouse

ABSTRACT: Recent human genome-wide association studies have identified common missense variants in MARC1, p.Ala165Thr and p.Met187Lys, associated with lower hepatic fat, reduction in liver enzymes and protection from most causes of cirrhosis. Using an exome-wide association study we recapitulated earlier MARC1 p.Ala165Thr and p.Met187Lys findings in 540,000 individuals from five ancestry groups. We also discovered novel rare putative loss of function variants in MARC1 with a phenotype similar to MARC1 p.Ala165Thr/p.Met187Lys variants. In vitro studies of recombinant human MARC1 protein revealed Ala165Thr substitution causes protein instability and aberrant localization in hepatic cells, suggesting MARC1 inhibition or deletion may lead to hepatoprotection. Following this hypothesis, we generated Marc1 knockout mice and evaluated the effect of Marc1 deletion on liver phenotype. Unexpectedly, our study found that whole-body Marc1 deficiency in mouse is not protective against hepatic triglyceride accumulation, liver inflammation or fibrosis. In attempts to explain the lack of the observed phenotype, we discovered that Marc1 plays only a minor role in mouse liver while its paralogue Marc2 is the main Marc family enzyme in mice. Our findings highlight the major difference in MARC1 physiological function between human and mouse.

Liver-specific DICER1 syndrome model mice develop cystic liver tumors with defective primary cilia

Project description:DICER1 syndrome is a tumor predisposition syndrome caused by familial genetic mutations in DICER1. Pathogenic variants of DICER1 have been discovered in many rare cancers, including cystic liver tumors. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying liver lesions induced by these variants remain unclear. In the present study, we sought to gain a better understanding of the pathogenesis of these variants by generating a mouse model of liver-specific DICER1 syndrome. The mouse model developed bile duct hyperplasia with fibrosis, similar to congenital hepatic fibrosis, as well as cystic liver tumors resembling those in Caroli's syndrome, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Interestingly, the mouse model of DICER1 syndrome showed abnormal formation of primary cilia in the bile duct epithelium, which is a known cause of bile duct hyperplasia and cyst formation. These results indicated that DICER1 mutations contribute to cystic liver tumors by inducing defective primary cilia. The mouse model generated in this study will be useful for elucidating the potential mechanisms of tumorigenesis induced by DICER1 variants and for obtaining a comprehensive understanding of DICER1 syndrome.

Mitochondria-rough-ER Contacts in The Liver Regulate Systemic Lipid Homeostasis

Project description:Contacts between organelles create microdomains that play major roles in regulating key intracellular activities and signaling pathways, but whether they also directly regulate systemic cellular activities, remains unknown. Here, we report the ultrastructural organization and dynamics of a new type of inter-organelle contact which is formed by rough-Endoplasmic Reticulum that is closely wrapped around the mitochondrion (wrappER). To elucidate the in vivo function of this inter-organelle association, mouse liver fractions enriched in wrappER-associated-mitochondria were analyzed in parallel by transcriptomics, proteomics, and lipidomics. The biochemical signature of the wrappER points to an unexpected role in the biogenesis of very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs). Altering wrappER-mitochondria contacts curtails liver VLDL secretion and increases hepatic fatty acids, lipid droplets and neutral lipid content. Conversely, acute liver-specific ablation of Mttp, the most upstream regulator of VLDL biogenesis, mirrors this hepatic dyslipidemia phenotype and promotes remodelling of the wrappER-mitochondria contact. The participation of liver wrappER-mitochondria contacts in VLDL biology reveals a role of inter-organelle contacts in systemic lipid homeostasis.

Bile acid-induced inflammatory signaling in mice lacking Foxa2 in the liver leads to activation of mTOR and age-onset obesity

Project description:Cytokine signaling has been connected to regulation of metabolism and energy balance. Numerous cytokine gene expression changes are stimulated by accumulation of bile acids in livers of young Foxa2 liver-conditional null mice. We hypothesized that bile acid-induced inflammation in young Foxa2 mutants, once chronic, affects metabolic homeostasis. We found that loss of Foxa2 in the liver results in a premature aging phenotype, including significant weight gain, reduced food intake, and decreased energy expenditure. We show that Foxa2 antagonizes the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, resulting in increased hepatic lipogenesis and adiposity. While much prior work has focused on adipose tissue in obesity, we discovered a novel age-onset obesity phenotype in a model where genetic deletion occurs only in the liver, underscoring the importance of the role hepatic lipogenesis plays in the development of obesity.

Pathophysiological role of hepatocyte nuclear factor 6 (HNF6) during cholestatic liver injury

Project description:Animal models of parenchymal liver injury by bile duct ligation (BDL) and all forms of liver diseases including neonatal hepatitis and clinical obstructive cholangiopathies such as biliary atresia have the pathological features of cholestasis and liver dysfunction. Hepatocyte nuclear factors 6 (HNF6) is important to the transcriptional regulation, expression and function of essential hepatic genes involved in the differentiated as well as the adaptive response to liver injury. Using HNF6 conditional knock out mice where HNF6 is functionally deleted in the liver, we established that HNF6 is required for proper liver function of cholesterol clearance, improvement of cholestasis and hepatocyte regeneration. Enhancing HNF6 expression in wild type mice also diminished hepatic apoptosis and fibrosis. In this proposal, we propose to further characterize the biological function of HNF6 by testing the HYPOTHESIS that HNF6 direct transcriptional regulation of antiapoptotic and antifibrotic pathways contributes to hepatoprotection during bile duct injury. This hypothesis will be tested in two specific aims.

Proteomic Evaluation of PANDER TG Mice

Project description:Previous studies have demonstrated elevated circulating levels of PANcreatic DERived factor (PANDER) overexpression induced a selective hepatic insulin resistant phenotype in the liver of the PANDER transgenic mouse model. Here we utilized SILAC for "spike-in" as a quantitative mass spectrometry based proteomic workflow to reveal proteomic profile changes between the PANDER transgenic mouse and the wild-type mouse.

Estrogen signaling and the Metabolic Syndrome: Targeting the hepatic ERalpha action

Project description:We have previously shown that total estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha knockout (KO) mice exhibit hepatic insulin resistance. To investigate the contribution of hepatic ERalpha action for the observed phenotype, we established a liver-selective ERalphaKO mouse model, LERKO. We demonstrate that LERKO mice have efficient reduction of ERalpha selectively within the liver. However, LERKO and wild type control mice do not differ in body weight, and have a comparable hormone profile as well as insulin and glucose response, even when challenged with a high fat diet. Furthermore, LERKO mice display very minor changes in their hepatic transcript profile. Collectively, our findings indicate that hepatic ERalpha action may not be the initiating factor for the previously identified hepatic insulin resistance in ERalphaKO mice. We have previously shown that total estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha knockout (KO) mice exhibit hepatic insulin resistance. To investigate the contribution of hepatic ERalpha action for the observed phenotype, we established a liver-selective ERalphaKO mouse model, LERKO. Using microarray analysis, we compared the hepatic transcriptional profile of LERKO vs control mice.

Gene expression profiling of HDAC3-depleted mouse liver rescued with wild-type exogenous HDAC3

Project description:We have shown that intravenous injection of HDAC3 floxed mice with adeno-associated virus (AAV) expressing Cre depletes hepatic HDAC3, upregulates lipogenic gene expression, and causes fatty liver. When AAV-Flag-HDAC3 wild-type (WT) is co-injected along with AAV-Cre, the exogenous HDAC3 is expressed at endogenous levels and can completely rescue fatty liver phenotype. Here we profile transcriptome of the rescued WT livers in comparison with HDAC3-depleted (KO) livers. 4-months old C57BL/6 male mice were co-injected with AAV-Cre or AAV-Cre plus AAV-Flag-HDAC3. Mice were fed ad libitum and harvested at 5 pm (ZT10) at 2-weeks post-injection. Liver total RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0ST array.

Transcriptomic signatures of progressive and regressive liver fibrosis and portal hypertension

Project description:Persistent liver injury triggers a fibrogenic program that causes pathologic remodelling of the hepatic microenvironment (i.e., liver fibrosis) and portal hypertension. The dynamics of gene regulation during liver disease progression and regression remain understudied. Here, we generated hepatic transcriptome profiles in two well-established liver disease models at peak fibrosis and during spontaneous regression after the removal of the inducing agents. We linked the dynamics of key liver disease readouts, such as portal pressure, collagen proportionate area, and transaminase serum levels, to most differentially expressed genes, enabling the identification of transcriptomic signatures of progressive vs. regressive liver fibrosis and portal hypertension. These candidate biomarkers (e.g., Scube1, Tcf4, Src, Hmga1, Trem2, Mafk, Mmp7) were also validated in RNA-seq datasets of patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Finally, deconvolution analysis identified major cell types and suggested an association of macrophage and portal hepatocyte signatures with portal hypertension and fibrosis area in both models.

Differential gene expression between WT MARC-145 cells and MARC-145 cells stably expressing Non-Structural Protein 11 of Porcine Respiratory and Reproductive Syndrome Virus

Project description:Porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a virus infecting swine and causes swine abortion. Previously, non-structural protein 11 (Nsp11) from PRRSV was shown to have inhibitory function to type I IFN signaling. In this project, we want to see in addition to type I IFN, whether other cellular pathways are influenced by Nsp11 systemtically. A cell line stably expressing PRRSV Nsp11 was established, designated as MARC-Nsp11 cells, and an RNA microarray was conducted using these cells and WT MARC-145 cells
