Branched-chain amino acids prevent hepatic fibrosis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma in a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis mouse model

ABSTRACT: BCAA were administered to atherogenic and high-fat (Ath & HF) diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) model mice and platelet-derived growth factor C transgenic mice (Pdgf-c Tg). Liver histology, tumor incidence, and gene expression profiles were evaluated. BCAA supplementation improved hepatic steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, and tumors in the NASH mouse model, possibly through the modification of mTORC1 signaling.

Reprograming of Proteasomal Degradation by Branched Chain Amino Acid Metabolism

Project description:Branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism is a central hub for energy production and regulation of numerous physiological processes. Controversially, both increased and decreased levels of BCAAs are associated with longevity. Using genetics and multi‐omics analyses in Caenorhabditis elegans, we identified adaptive regulation of the ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS) in response to defective BCAA catabolic reactions after the initial transamination step. Worms with impaired BCAA metabolism show a slower turnover of a GFP‐based proteasome substrate, which is suppressed by loss‐of‐function of the first BCAA catabolic enzyme, the branched‐chain aminotransferase BCAT‐1. The exogenous supply of BCAA‐derived carboxylic acids, which are known to accumulate in the body fluid of patients with BCAA metabolic disorders, is sufficient to regulate the UPS. The link between BCAA intermediates and UPS function presented here sheds light on the unexplained role of BCAAs in the aging process and opens future possibilities for therapeutic interventions.

Defective Branched-Chain Amino Acid Catabolism in Dorsal Root Ganglia Contributes to Mechanical Pain

Project description:Impaired branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolism has recently been implicated in the development of mechanical pain, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Here we report that defective BCAA catabolism in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons sensitizes mice to mechanical pain by increasing lactate production and expression of the mechanotransduction channel Piezo2. In high-fat diet-fed obese mice, we observe downregulation of PP2Cm, a key regulator of the BCAA catabolic pathway, in DRG neurons. Mice with conditional knockout of PP2Cm in DRG neurons exhibit mechanical allodynia under normal or SNI-induced neuropathic injury conditions. Furthermore, the VAS scores in the plasma of patients with peripheral neuropathic pain are positively correlated with BCAA contents. Mechanistically, defective BCAA catabolism in DRG neurons promotes lactate production through glycolysis, which increases H3K18la modification and drives Piezo2 expression. Inhibition of lactate production or Piezo2 silencing attenuates the pain phenotype of knockout mice in response to mechanical stimuli. Therefore, our study demonstrates a causal role of defective BCAA catabolism in mechanical pain by enhancing metabolite-mediated epigenetic regulation.

Murine Western diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis liver proteome

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the number one cause of chronic liver disease worldwide, with 25% of these patients developing nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). NASH significantly increases the risk of cirrhosis and decompensated liver failure. Past studies in rodent models have shown the knockout of glycine-N-methyltransferase (GNMT) results in rapid pro-gression of steatosis, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the attenuation of GNMT in subjects with NASH and the molecular basis for its impact on the disease process are still unclear. To address this knowledge gap, we show the reduction of GNMT protein levels in the liver of NASH subjects compared to healthy controls. To gain insight into the impact of decreased GNMT in the disease process, we performed global label-free proteome studies on the livers from a murine Western diet-based model of NASH. Histological and molecular characterization of the animal model demonstrate high resemblance to the human disease.

Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in adolescents undergoing bariatric surgery

Project description:The genomic landscape of hepatic tissue affected by nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in severely obese adolescents undergoing bariatric surgery is unknown. Our purpose here was to uncover genomic profiles of obese controls, and obese cases with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), borderline nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and definite nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, in order to clarify molecular functions, biological processes, and pathways that are dysregulated in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in the severely obese adolescent. In a prospective observational cohort study, we have intra-operatively obtained 165 liver samples; of these 67 were submited for microarray analysis. Through ANOVA, we found 8648 genes with differential regulation between the four histologies; from these, we uncovered gene signatures shared between borderline and definite nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, and gene sets with differential effects between borderline and definite.

Branched chain amino acids impact health and lifespan indirectly via amino acid balance and appetite control

Project description:Elevated branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are associated with obesity and insulin resistance. How long-term dietary BCAAs impact late-life health and lifespan is unknown. Here, we show that when dietary BCAAs are varied against a fixed, isocaloric macronutrient background, long-term exposure to high BCAA diets led to hyperphagia, obesity and reduced lifespan. These effects were not due to elevated BCAA per se or hepatic mTOR activation, but rather the shift in balance between dietary BCAAs and other AAs, notably tryptophan and threonine. Increasing the ratio of BCAAs to these AAs resulted in hyperphagia and was linked to central serotonin depletion. Preventing hyperphagia by calorie restriction or pair-feeding averted the health costs of a high BCAA diet. Our data highlight a role for amino acid quality in energy balance and show that health costs of chronic high BCAA intakes were not due to intrinsic toxicity; rather, to hyperphagia driven by AA imbalance.

Neutralization of Oxidized Phospholipids Restrains Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis

Project description:Oxidized phospholipids (OxPL) are pro-inflammatory and pro-atherogenic, but their roles in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are unknown. Here, we show that OxPL accumulate in human and murine NASH. Using a transgenic mouse that expresses a functional single chain variable fragment of E06, a natural antibody that neutralizes OxPL, we demonstrate the casual role of OxPL in NASH. Targeting OxPL in hyperlipidemic Ldlr-/- mice decreased multiple aspects of NASH, including steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, hepatocyte death and progression to hepatocellular carcinoma. Mechanistically, we found that OxPL promote ROS accumulation to induce mitochondrial dysfunction in hepatocytes. Neutralizing OxPL in AMLN diet-fed Ldlr-/- mice reduced oxidative stress, improved hepatic and adipose tissue mitochondrial function and fatty acid oxidation. Since neutralizing OxPL also protects against atherogenesis, targeting OxPL may be an effective therapeutic strategy for both NASH and atherosclerosis.

DT-109 ameliorates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis in nonhuman primates

Project description:<p>Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) prevalence is rising with no pharmacotherapy approved. A major hurdle in NASH drug development is the poor translatability of preclinical studies to safe/effective clinical outcomes, and recent failures highlight a need to identify new targetable pathways. Dysregulated glycine metabolism has emerged as a causative factor and therapeutic target in NASH. Here, we report that the tripeptide DT-109 (Gly-Gly-Leu) dose-dependently attenuates steatohepatitis and fibrosis in mice. To enhance the probability of successful translation, we developed a nonhuman primate model that histologically and transcriptionally mimics human NASH. Applying a multiomics approach combining transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics and metagenomics, we found that DT-109 reverses hepatic steatosis and prevents fibrosis progression in nonhuman primates, not only by stimulating fatty acid degradation and glutathione formation, as found in mice, but also by modulating microbial bile acid metabolism. Our studies describe a highly translatable NASH model and highlight the need for clinical evaluation of DT-109.</p>
