Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is a chronic liver disease characterized by hepatic lipid accumulation, inflammation, and progressive fibrosis. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) catalyzes the rate-limiting step of de novo lipogenesis and regulates fatty-acid beta-oxidation in hepatocytes. ACC inhibition reduces hepatic fat content and markers of liver injury in NASH patients; however, the effect of ACC inhibition on liver fibrosis has not been reported. METHODS: A direct role for ACC in fibrosis was evaluated by measuring de novo lipogenesis, procollagen production, gene expression, glycolysis, and mitochondrial respiration in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) in the absence or presence of small-molecule inhibitors of ACC. ACC inhibitors were evaluated in rodent models of liver fibrosis induced by diet or the hepatotoxin, DEN. Fibrosis and hepatic steatosis were evaluated by histological and biochemical assessments. RESULTS: In TGF-beta-stimulated HSCs, ACC inhibition reduced activation and collagen production independent of mitochondrial beta-oxidation by blocking de novo lipogenesis. ACC inhibition prevented a metabolic switch necessary for induction of glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation during HSC activation. Consistent with this direct anti-fibrotic mechanism in HSCs, ACC inhibition reduced liver fibrosis in a rat CDHFD model and in response to chronic DEN-induced liver injury that lacked hepatic lipid accumulation. CONCLUSIONS: In addition to reducing lipid accumulation in hepatocytes, ACC inhibition also directly impairs the pro-fibrogenic activity of HSCs. Small molecule inhibitors of ACC may reduce liver fibrosis by both reducing lipotoxicity in hepatocytes and directly reducing HSC activation, providing a mechanistic rationale for the treatment of patients with advanced liver fibrosis due to NASH.

Project description:The lack of an appropriate preclinical model of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) that recapitulates the whole disease spectrum impedes exploration of disease pathophysiology and the development of effective treatment strategies. Considering the fact that MASLD patients accompanying type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have high risk of developing metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), advanced fibrosis, and HCC, we treated low-dose streptozotocin (STZ; 40 mg/kg) for 5 consecutive days and subsequently fed a high-fat diet (HFD) to male C57BL/6J mice at 7 weeks of age (STZ+HFD). STZ+HFD mice gradually developed fatty liver, MASH, hepatic fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the context of metabolic dysfunction. In particular, from 20 weeks of age, MASH was evident, and from 32 weeks of age, advanced fibrosis was developed. At 38 weeks, a proportion of STZ+HFD mice developed HCC, which was subsequently observed in all mice up to 68 weeks of age. Furthermore, the hepatic transcriptomic features of STZ+HFD mice closely reflected those of obese patients with T2DM, MASH and MASLD-related HCC. Notably, dietary changes and tirzepatide administration alleviated MASH, hepatic fibrosis, and hepatic tumorigenesis in STZ+HFD mice. In conclusion, a murine model recapitulating the main histopathologic, transcriptomic, and metabolic alterations observed in MASLD patients with metabolic dysfunction was successfully established.

Project description:Cystic fibrosis (CF) mouse models exhibit exocrine pancreatic function yet do not develop adipose stores to the levels of non-CF mice. CF mice homozygous for the Cftr mutation (F508del) at 3 weeks (post-weaning) and 6 weeks (young adult) of age had markedly less adipose tissue than non-CF mice. Both 3- and 6-week old mice had dietary lipid absorption and fecal lipid excretion comparable to non-CF controls. Fractional hepatic de novo synthesis of palmitate and stearate (de novo lipogenesis, DNL) as determined by deuterium incorporation was reduced in CF mice. At 3 weeks of age, F508del mice had significantly decreased DNL of palmitate and stearate, by 83% and 80%, respectively. By 6 weeks of age, DNL rates in non-CF mice remained unchanged as compared to 3-week old mice, while DNL rates of F508del mice were still reduced, by 33% and 40%, respectively. Adipose tissue fatty acid profiles were comparable in CF and non-CF mice, indicating that adipose differences are quantitative, not qualitative. A correspondingly lower content of deuterium-labeled fatty acids was found in CF adipose tissue, consistent with reduced deposition of newly made hepatic triglycerides and/or decreased adipose tissue lipogenesis. Hepatic transcriptome analysis revealed lower mRNA expression from several genes involved in fatty acid biosynthesis, suggesting down-regulation of several enzymes in fatty acids synthesis as a mechanism for the reduced lipogenesis. These novel data provide a model for altered fat and fatty acid metabolism in CF, independent of malabsorption, and may partly explain the inability of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy to completely restore normal body mass to CF patients ∆F508 CF mice and its WT littermates (3-weeks old females, C57BL/6J) were examined. RNA extracted from snapped-frozen livers, 4 replicates per genotype.

Project description:Excessive fructose intake is a risk factor for the development of obesity and its complications. Targeting ketohexokinase (KHK), the first enzyme of fructose metabolism, has been investigated for the management of MASLD. We compared the effects of systemic, small molecule inhibitor of KHK enzymatic activity to hepatocyte-specific, GalNAc-siRNA mediated knockdown of KHK in mice on a HFD. We measured KHK enzymatic activity, extensively quantified glycogen accumulation, performed RNAseq analysis, and enumerated hepatic metabolites using mass spectrometry. Both KHK siRNA and KHK inhibitor led to an improvement in liver steatosis, however, via substantially different mechanisms. KHK knockdown decreased the de novo lipogenesis pathway, whereas the inhibitor increased the fatty acid oxidation pathway. Moreover, KHK knockdown completely prevented hepatic fructolysis and improved glucose tolerance. Conversely, the KHK inhibitor only partially reduced fructolysis, but it also targeted triokinase, mediating the third step of fructolysis. This leads to the accumulation of fructose-1 phosphate, resulting in glycogen accumulation, hepatomegaly, and impaired glucose tolerance. Overexpression of wild-type, but not kinase-dead KHK in cultured hepatocytes increased hepatocyte injury and glycogen accumulation when treated with fructose. The differences between KHK inhibition and knockdown are, in part, explained by the kinase-dependent and independent effects of KHK on hepatic metabolism.

Project description:Fat accumulation, de novo lipogenesis, and glycolysis are key contributors to hepatocyte reprogramming and the pathogenesis of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). The molecular mechanisms affected by steatosis and inflammation in the obese states remain unknown. Here we report that obesity leads to dysregulated expression of protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) in the liver. Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Receptor Kappa (PTPRK) was increased in hepatocytes by steatosis and inflammation in humans and mice, and positively correlates with PPARγ-induced lipogenic signalling. Mechanistically, PTPRK-PPARγ upregulation by fat accumulation is dependent upon Notch signalling in mouse primary hepatocytes. PTPRK knockout mice have reduced fat accumulation in adipose tissue and liver after exposure to an obesogenic diet. Phosphoproteomic analysis in isolated hepatocytes and hepatic metabolomics identified specific phosphotyrosine residues in fructose-1,6 bisphosphatase-1 and glycolysis regulation as targets of PTPRK. These changes in glycolysis and de novo lipogenesis revealed PTPRK-dependent metabolic reprogramming in hepatocytes. Moreover, hepatoma cell lines showed reduced colony-forming ability after PTPRK silencing in vitro, and PTPRK knockout mice developed smaller tumours after diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in vivo. Computational modelling identified potential PTPRK inhibitors, which selectively reduced PTPRK activity. The compounds decreased glycolytic rates in hepatoma cell lines, PPARγ expression in primary hepatocytes and steatosis in obese mice. In conclusion, our study defines a novel mechanism for the development of MASLD, revealing a key role of PTPRK on hepatic glycolysis regulation with implications in lipid metabolism, and liver tumour development. We propose PTPRK as a potential target for metabolic liver dysfunction, and the identified inhibitors may represent promising candidates for therapy in obesity-associated liver diseases.

Project description:Prolonged intervention studies investigating molecular metabolism are necessary for a deeper understanding of dietary effects on health. Here we provide mechanistic information about metabolic adaptation to fat-rich diets. Healthy men ingested saturated (SFA) or poly unsaturated (PUFA) fat-rich diets for six weeks during weight maintenance. Hyperinsulinemic clamps combined with leg balance technique revealed unchanged peripheral insulin sensitivity, independent of fatty acid type. Both diets increased fat oxidation potential in muscle. Hepatic insulin clearance increased, while glucose production, de novo lipogenesis and plasma triacylglycerol decreased. High fat intake changed the plasma proteome in immune-supporting direction and the gut microbiome displayed changes at taxonomical and functional level with PUFA. In mice, eucaloric feeding of human PUFA and SFA diets lowered hepatic triacylglycerol content compared to low-fat fed control mice, and induced adaptations in the liver supportive of decreased gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis. Intake of fat-rich diets thus induces extensive metabolic adaptations enabling disposition of dietary fat without metabolic complications.

Project description:Metabolic remodeling is one of the earliest events that occur during the early differentiation of embryonic stem cells (ESCs), but how these metabolic changes are regulated and participate in the cell differentiation is still largely undissected. Here, we define the fatty acid metabolism as a key player in definitive endoderm (DE) differentiation from human ESCs. During DE differentiation, lipogenesis is decreased while fatty acid β oxidation is enhanced. This dynamic is due to the phosphorylation of lipogenic enzyme acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), which is mediated by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and inhibits the de novo fatty acid synthesis. More importantly, inhibition of fatty acid synthesis by either its inhibitors or AMPK agonist, significantly promotes the human endoderm differentiation, while blockade of the fatty acid oxidation by genetic manipulation or chemical antagonists impairs the differentiation. The de novo fatty acid synthesis inhibition and fatty acid β oxidation maintaining contribute to the accumulation of cellular acetyl-CoA, which is the essential substrate for protein acetylation. Further study reveals that SMAD3 acetylation and the subsequent subcellular localization exhibit significant change upon interfering fatty acid metabolism. Mechanistically, the accumulation of cellular acetyl-CoA guarantees the acetylation of key transcription factor SMAD3, which further causes the nuclear localization and activation of SMAD signaling pathway to promote DE differentiation. Thus, our current study reveals a fatty acid synthesis/oxidation shift during early differentiation and presents an instructive role of fatty acid metabolism in regulating human early endoderm differentiation.
