SOX9 is a key factor for the postnatal maturation of the intrahepatic bile duct network.

ABSTRACT: It is widely recognized that sex-determining region Y-box 9 (SOX9) plays a critical role in the development of intrahepatic bile ducts (IHBDs) during the embryonic stage. IHBDs are composed of two distinct networks: a hierarchical network and a homogeneous network. The hierarchical network consists of large bile ducts that run along the portal veins (PVs) and branch into smaller bile ducts, forming a reticular structure around the PVs. By contrast, the homogeneous network is an early tubular structure composed of bile ductules surrounding the PVs and serves as a precursor to the mature hierarchical network. This study examined the role of SOX9 in the postnatal development of these networks using three-dimensional imaging analysis and a mouse model in which SOX9 deficiency predominates after birth. Our findings indicate that SOX9 is essential for the maturation and structural organization of the IHBD, particularly in terms of facilitating the proper connection between bile ductules and bile canaliculi. Furthermore, transcriptional changes in Sox9 conditional knockout mice activated compensatory pathways involved in bile acid transport and metabolism, while downregulating intercellular adhesion pathways, thereby impairing cholangiocyte adhesion and structural integrity. These results indicate that SOX9 plays a more pivotal role in the development of the bile duct network than previously thought.

De novo formation of a functional biliary system by TGFβ-mediated hepatocyte transdifferentiation

Project description:We observed de novo formation of peripheral bile ducts by transdifferentiation of hepatocytes in mice born without peripheral bile ducts. To assess the authenticity and maturity of the hepatocyte-derived peripheral cholangiocytes forming the new bile ducts, we compared their global gene expression profile to that of peripheral cholangiocytes isolated from normal mice. We also included hepatocytes isolated from mice born without peripheral bile ducts as a control.

Systems analysis of biliary atresia through integration of high-throughput biological data

Project description:Biliary atresia (BA), blockage of the proper bile flow due to loss of extrahepatic bile ducts, is a rare, complex disease of the liver and the bile ducts with unknown etiology. Despite ongoing investigations to understand its complex pathogenesis, BA remains the most common cause of liver failure requiring liver transplantation in children. To elucidate underlying mechanisms, we analyzed the different types of high-throughput genomic and transcriptomic data collected from the blood and liver tissue samples of children suffering from BA. Through use of a novel integrative approach, we identified potential biomarkers and over-represented biological functions and pathways to derive a comprehensive network showing the dysfunctional mechanisms associated with BA. One of the pathways highlighted in the integrative network was hypoxia signaling. Perturbation with hypoxia inducible factor activator, dimethyloxalylglycine, induced the biliary defects of BA in a zebrafish model, serving as a validation for our studies. Our approach enables a systems-level understanding of human BA biology that is highlighted by the interaction between key biological functions such as fibrosis, inflammation, immunity, hypoxia, and development

Proteome of human branching and non-branching cholangiocyte organoids

Project description:Current model systems for studying intrahepatic biliary disease fail to recapitulate the architecture of intrahepatic bile ducts. Organoids from intrahepatic cholangiocytes can with a new culture method grow with a branching pattern resembling the structure of intrahepatic bile ducts. This dataset contains data from samples of these organoids and from control organoids cultured without this technique. Culture have been performed using isotope labeled amino acids to help distinguish cell derived proteins from the basement membrane extract used as a culture substrate for the organoids.

Liver regeneration after cholestatic damage induced by Rbpj deletion

Project description:Liver cholestasis is a chronic liver disease (CLD) which belongs to a major health problem. Cholestasis is characterised by a decrease in bile flow due to impaired secretion by hepatocytes or by obstruction of bile flow through intra- or extrahepatic bile ducts. Thereby cholestasis can induce ductal proliferation, hepatocyte injury and liver fibrosis. Notch signalling promotes the formation and maturation of ductular reactions. We investigated the liver regeneration process in the context of cholestasis induced by disruption of the Notch signalling pathway. Liver-specific deletion of Rbpj, which represents a key regulator of Notch signalling, induces severe cholestasis through impaired IHBD maturation, severe necrosis and increased lethality. Deregulation of the biliary compartment and cholestasis are associated with change of several signalling pathways including the Hippo pathway resulting in upregulation of SOX9, which is associated with transdifferentiation of hepatocytes. SOX9 upregulation in cholestatic liver injury in vitro is independent of Notch signalling. We could comprehensively address that Rbpj depletion is followed by deregulation of YAP/TEAD, which influences transdifferentiation of hepatocytes and thereby contributing to liver regeneration. In this study the liver regeneration process was analyzed in 4 weeks old Rbpj knockout mice and compared to 4 weeks old Rbpj wildtype mice.

Gene expression of human hepatocytes isolated from chimeric mice with humanized liver

Project description:Chimeric mice with humanized livers are considered a useful animal model for predicting human drug metabolism and toxicity. In this study, the characteristics of fresh h-hepatocytes (cFHHs, PXB-cells®) isolated from chimeric mice (PXB-mice®) were evaluated in vitro to confirm their utility for drug development. The cFHHs cultured at high density (2.13 × 10^5 cells/cm2) displayed stable production of human albumin and cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A activities for at least 21 days. The mRNA expression levels of 10 of 13 CYPs, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGP), and transporters were maintained at >10% of the levels of freshly isolated cFHHs after 21 days. From 7-days cultured cFHHs at high density, many bile canaliculi were observed between cFHHs, and the accumulation of multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP2) and bile salt export pump (BSEP) substrates in these bile canaliculi was clearly inhibited by cyclosporin A. We used microarrays to elucidate global gene expressions underlying this higher hepatic functions of high density cultured cFHHs (PXB-cells). Microarray analysis revealed that high density cultured cFHHs maintained high expressions of some transcription factors (HNF4α, PXR, and FXR) perhaps involved in the high CYP, UGT and transporter gene expressions of cFHHs.

Comprehensive gene expression profile of extrahepatic bile ducts in mice with experimental biliary atresia

Project description:Newborn Balb/c mice were injected intraperitoneally with 1.5x10^6 fluorescent-forming units (ffu) of type- A Rhesus Rotavirus (RRV) or 0.9% normal saline (NS; control) within 24 hours of birth to induce experimental model of biliary atresia. Extrahepatic bile ducts including gallbladder were microdissected en bloc at 3, 7 and 14 days after RRV or saline injections. GeneChipM-BM-. Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (Affymetrix, CA) were used to screen mRNAs whose expression was differently regulated after RRV challenge compared to normal saline controls. Gene expression profiling: Each experimental conditon contains 3 sets of samples. Each sample consists of two to six extrahepatic bile ducts pooled prior to isolation of total RNA to ensure generation of adequate mRNA to perform quantitative experiments.
