Project description:Over expression of PDGF-C in mouse liver resulted in the progression of hepatic fibrosis, steatosis and the development of HCC; this mouse model closely resembles the human HCC that is frequently associated with hepatic fibrosis. Peretinoin (generic name; code, NIK-333), developed by the Kowa Company, (Tokyo, Japan), is an oral acyclic retinoid (ACR) with a vitamin A-like structure that targets the retinoid nuclear receptor. Peretinoin effectively inhibits the progression of hepatic fibrosis and tumors in Pdgf-c Tg mice. Gene expression profiling was evaluated during the progression of hepatic fibrosis and tumors. After weaning at week 4, Pdgf-c Tg or non-transgenic WT mice were fed a basal diet or a diet containing+0.06% peretinoin respectively. At week 20, mice were sacrificed for the analysis of progression of hepatic fibrosis. At week 48, mice were sacrificed for the analysis of the development of hepatic tumors.

Project description:KrasG12D mutation and Mdm2 loss in the liver (LiKM) accelerated liver carcinogenesis in mice, compared with LiK (KrasG12D mutation in the liver) mice. Acyclic retinoid (ACR) diet suppressed tumor development in LiKM mice. The goal of RNA-seq of non-tumorous liver tissues is to identifiy the effect of ACR diet on the transcriptomic profile of the liver and clarify the mechamism of ACR-mediated tumor suppression in LiKM mice.

Project description:To better understand the molecular basis of the anticancer effects of acyclic retinoid (ACR), a genome-wide screening was applied to identify novel targets of ACR in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells JHH7. Gene expression profiles of JHH7 were measured at 0h, 1h and 4 hours after treatment with1 μM All-trans retinoic acid (AtRA) or 10 μM ACR. Hierarchical clustering with Ward’s method of 44,907 genes demonstrated diverse expression changes in HCC cells treated with ACR for 4h. A total of 973 differentially expressed genes in response to ACR by comparing with AtRA for 4h treatments were identified with a fold change more than 2. Then, network analysis was performed on the altered gene expression profiles using Ingenuity Pathways Analysis (IPA) program. The most highly populated networks were associated with the regulation of cell cycle and DNA replication, as ACR is well known to induce apoptosis and suppress cell proliferation in HCC cells. Moreover, networks related with amino acid metabolism, protein synthesis and lipid metabolism, such as the biological network entitled “Lipid Metabolism, Small Molecular Biochemistry, Vitamin and Mineral Metabolism” were also observed. Of interest, this network contains genes that play critical roles in controlling the development of tissues and organs such as the nuclear orphan receptor nuclear receptor subfamily 2, group F, member 2 (NR2F2), suggesting potential drug targets to prevent/treat HCC. Gene expression profiles of JHH7 were measured at 0h, 1h and 4 hours after treatment with 1μM AtRA or 10 μM ACR.

Project description:Liver cirrhosis is a strong risk factor for the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet the mechanisms by which cirrhosis predisposes patients to tumorigenesis are not well understood. Transgenic mice expressing platelet-derived growth factor C (Pdgf-c) under the control of the albumin promoter provide a unique animal model that mimics the step-wise disease progression in humans from fibrosis to HCC. The livers of Pdgf-c Tg mice show evidence of liver injury, including inflammation, proliferation, fibrosis and steatosis, and as the mice age, angiogenesis and dysplasia. Eighty-five percent of these mice develop HCC spontaneously, and have reduced survival that is related to their liver pathology. Through measurement of protein, RNA, and histological markers, we provide evidence to support the hypothesis that changes in liver stromal cells play an essential role in tumorigenesis in this model. A paracrine signaling model is proposed where ectopic expression of Pdgf-c in hepatocytes results in activation of hepatic stellate cells, which subsequently activates endothelial and Kupffer cells. Activation of these non-parenchymal cells promotes the release of hepatocyte growth factors that, together with changes in extracellular matrix, lead to the formation of HCC. Pdgf-c Tg mice provide a useful pre-clinical model in which to test novel drugs for chronic liver disease and HCC that focus on blocking the processes that alter the liver's fibrotic microenvironment. Two strains of mice, C57BL/6 and C57/BL6 Pdgf-c transgenic, were analyzed to see if liver stromal cells play an essential role in tumorigenesis.

Project description:Gene expression profiling in non tumor lesion in the liver of patients prior to administering peretinoin was unrelated to the clinical outcome, however, gene expression profiling 8 weeks after starting peretinoin therapy significantly predicted the recurrence of HCC Peretinoin, a member of the acyclic retinoid family, is expected to be an effective chemo preventive drug for HCC.The patients had undergone curative surgical resection or radiofrequency ablation (RFA). They received 300 mg/day or 600 mg/day of peretinoin for 8 weeks and were followed up for 88 weeks with 600 mg/day of peretinoin. Hepatic gene expression profiling obtained from non tumor lesion of these patients prior to administering peretinoin and 8 weeks after starting peretinoin treatment

Project description:Recurrent hepatitis C virus (rHCV) is universal post-liver transplantation (LT), with accelerated fibrosis rates compared to non-transplanted patients. rHCV is associated with increased mortality and morbidity post-transplant and is a leading indication for re-transplantation. We hypothesized that miRNA expression profiles from liver grafts can distinguish severity of HCV recurrence and differentiate this from acute cellular rejection (ACR). Methods Using microarrays, we characterized global microRNA (miRNA) expression from patients with slow HCV fibrosis progression (F<2 Ishak), fast HCV fibrosis progression (FM-bM-^IM-%2 Ishak), ACR and non-HCV transplanted patients. Selected miRNA were analysed by quantitative PCR (qPCR) using both liver tissue and serum samples. Results We demonstrated changes in miRNA expression in patients with slow HCV fibrosis progression that were anti-fibrogenic, anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory in comparison to patients with fast HCV fibrosis progression. miRNA-146a, miRNA-19a, miRNA- 20a and miRNA-let-7e expression were increased in the slow HCV fibrosis progression group. In addition, comparison of patients with fast HCV progression against patients with ACR identified pro-fibrogenic pathways. qPCR analysis on liver tissue and serum confirmed the up-regulation of miRNAs in the slow HCV fibrosis progression group. Conclusion We demonstrate specific miRNA expression signatures that distinguish rate of progression of HCV recurrence and ACR post M-bM-^@M-^Sliver transplantation. Pathway analysis indicates that specific miRNA may play a regulatory role in these processes. The miRNAs identified may act as potential biomarkers for HCV recurrence post-LT and help distinguish between ACR and recurrent HCV. We compared 29 patients in total; 11 patients with slow HCV fibrosis progression, 9 patients with fast HCV fibrosis progression, 5 patients with acute cellular rejection and 4 HCV negative patients with normal liver histology that acted as controls. RNA was extracted from archived histology samples of the RG and NRG and miRNA expression was analysed using the affymetrix Genechip miRNA 2.0 assays.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which accounts for 90% of all primary livers tumors, is the fourth most common cancer in the world. The development of HCC is a long-term and complex process, and uncovering the molecular mechanisms associated with HCC development is critical for the disease diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. Exploring these mechanisms using human HCC samples is desirable, but frequently impractical, with a number of limitations and shortcomings. The STAMTM (Stelic Institute & Co, Tokyo, Japan) mouse model of NASH-associated liver carcinogenesis is considered a useful and relevant model for investigating the molecular pathogenesis of NASH-derived HCC. This model resembles the human HCC development associated with progression from simple steatosis to NASH, fibrosis, and HCC. In the present study, by using high-throughput whole genome microarrays (SurePrint G3 Mouse Gene Expression v2, 8x60K; Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA), we examined the transcriptomic profiles in the livers of STAMTM mice at different stages of liver carcinogenesis, including steatosis (6 week time interval), NASH (8 weeks), fibrotic stage (12 weeks), and in full-fledged HCC (20 weeks). The results of microarray analyses showed significant progressive changes in hepatic gene expression during the development of HCC. A total of 970, 1462, 2742, and 2857 of differentially expressed genes were identified in the livers at 6, 8, 12, and 20 weeks, respectively. Detailed analysis of these differentially expressed genes will benefit the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease-derived HCC. Transcriptomic profile in the liver of STAM mice at 6 weeks (steatosis; n=3), 8 weeks (steatohepatitis; n=3) 12 weeks (fibrosis; n=4) and 20 weeks (HCC-stage tumor tissue, n=4) weeks. Age-matched control samples were also analyzed.
