Quantitative proteomics and phosphoproteomics reveal TNF-alpha mediated downstream protein functions in hepatocytes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The increased secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha, is often associated with adipose tissue dysregulation, which often accompanies obesity. High levels of TNF-alpha have been linked to development of insulin resistance in several tissues and organs, including skeletal muscle and the liver. In this study, we examined the complex regulatory roles of TNF-alpha in murine hepatocytes utilizing a combination of global proteomics and phosphoproteomics analyses. Our results show that TNF-alpha promotes extensive, dynamic changes not only of protein levels, but also the dynamics of their downstream phosphorylation signaling states. We provide evidence that TNF-alpha likely induces DNA replication, and promotes G1/S transition through the activation of the MAPK pathway. Our data also highlights several other novel proteins, many of which are regulated by phosphorylation and that play a role in the progression and development of insulin resistance in hepatocytes.
