Project description:Hepatic steatosis is the initial manifestation of abnormal liver functions and often leads to liver diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in humans and fatty liver syndrome in animals. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of a large chicken population consisting of 705 adult hens by combining host genome resequencing, liver transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome analysis, as well as microbial 16S rRNA gene sequencing of each gut segment.

Project description:How hepatocytes respond to a fatty acid stimulus is the topic of continuous research, since it is essential for our understanding of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease a pathology with a hard to detect onset, estimated to be present in a quarter of the adult human population. As advanced stages include cirrhosis and development of hepatocellular carcinoma, early detection and intervention is crucial. To improve our understanding of the development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease we treated a human hepatoma cell line model, HepG2, with increasing concentrations of common fatty acids namely myristic, palmitic and oleic acid. To reproduce more representative conditions, we also included combinations of these fatty acids and monitored the cellular response with an in-depth proteomics approach and imaging techniques. The two saturated fatty acids presented a similar phenotype of a dose dependent decrease of proliferation rates and little lipid droplet formation. Interestingly, our data corroborated that this drop in proliferation rates was due to delayed cell cycle progression following myristic acid treatment, whereas palmitic acid led to cellular apoptosis. In contrast, oleic acid, as well as saturated fatty acid mixtures with oleic acid, led to a dose dependent increase of lipid droplet volume without the adverse impact on proliferation. Comparing the outcomes from harmful single fatty acid treatments and the well tolerated fatty acid mixes, we were able to differentiate between fatty acid specific cellular responses and likely common lipotoxic denominators. Two of them, A2M and SERPINA3, are modulators of the innate immune system and are likely involved in the inflammation occurring on systemic level. The remaining four include transcription factors like H2AFY, which recently has been proposed as a biomarker for hepatocellular carcinoma. Conclusively, our study not only manages to contextualise proteome alterations following fatty acid treatment, but also highlights differences between cellular effects of two common saturated fatty acids.

Project description:Alcoholic liver diseases (ALDs) encompass a broad spectrum of clinical features of alcoholic fatty liver, alcoholic steatohepatitis and cirrhosis, and increased risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. While the toxic effects of alcohol likely result from complex interactions between genes and the environment, the molecular mechanisms of alcohol-induced liver damage remains undefined. Thus, a better understanding of the mechanisms regulating hepatic cell injury may lead to more effective therapeutic approaches for ALD. Here we compared the miRNA expression profile from tissues from control mice and mice receiving intragastric ethanol feeding. Four microarray hybridization studies were performed on three different pairs of liver-derived RNA from intragastric ethanol feeding and normal mice. The miRNAs differentially overexpressed in livers from ethanol fed mice.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) encompasses a spectrum of disease that ranges from simple steatosis, to inflammatory form non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis, and up to hepatocellular carcinoma. While NASH usually takes decades to develop at a rate of one stage per seven years, in the case of post-trasplant NASH (pt-NASH) develops fibrosis much more rapidly, with almost 50% of liver transplant recipients presenting stage 3 fibrosis by 5 years post-transplant. Archived fresh-frozen transplanted liver biopsy samples from four liver biopsy samples with evidence of NASH (2 recurrent and 2 de novo), two with simple steatosis (both de novo), and five with normal histology as controls had their transcriptome sequenced in two batches for deeper coverage.

Project description:Chronic liver diseases are worldwide on the rise. Due to the rapidly increasing incidence, in particular in Western countries, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is gaining importance. As the disease progresses it can develop into hepatocellular carcinoma. Lipid accumulation in hepatocytes has been identified as the characteristic structural change in NAFLD development, but the molecular mechanisms responsible for disease development remained unresolved. Here, we uncover a strong downregulation of the PI3K-AKT pathway and an upregulation of the MAPK pathway in primary hepatocytes from a preclinical model fed with a Western diet (WD). Dynamic pathway modeling of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) signal transduction combined with global proteomics identifies that an elevated basal MET phosphorylation rate is the main driver of altered signaling leading to increased proliferation of WD-hepatocytes. Model-adaptation to patient-derived hepatocytes reveals a patient-specific variability in basal MET phosphorylation, which correlates with the outcome of patients after liver surgery. Thus, dysregulated basal MET phosphorylation could be an indicator for the health status of the liver and thereby inform on the risk of a patient to suffer from liver failure after surgery.

Project description:cdipt is an essential gene in the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) in the zebrafish, Danio rerio. The zebrafish mutant cdipt^hi559Tg (ZL782) carries a retroviral insertion which inactivates cdipt. Homozygous mutants exhibit hepatocellular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) pathologies at 5 days post fertilization (dpf). This study reveals a novel link between PtdIns, ER stress, and steatosis. We compared whole animal gene expression profiles of hi559 mutant larvae with phenotypically wild type larvae from a heterozygote incross in triplicate.

Abstract:
Several liver disorders result from perturbations in the
metabolism of hepatocytes, and their underlying mechanisms can
be outlined through the use of genome-scale metabolic models
(GEMs). Here we reconstruct a consensus GEM for hepatocytes,
which we call iHepatocytes2322, that extends previous models by
including an extensive description of lipid metabolism. We
build iHepatocytes2322 using Human Metabolic Reaction 2.0
database and proteomics data in Human Protein Atlas, which
experimentally validates the incorporated reactions. The
reconstruction process enables improved annotation of the
proteomics data using the network centric view of
iHepatocytes2322. We then use iHepatocytes2322 to analyse
transcriptomics data obtained from patients with non-alcoholic
fatty liver disease. We show that blood concentrations of
chondroitin and heparan sulphates are suitable for diagnosing
non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and for the staging of
non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Furthermore, we observe
serine deficiency in patients with NASH and identify PSPH,
SHMT1 and BCAT1 as potential therapeutic targets for the
treatment of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease/steatohepatitis (NAFLD/NASH) is a significant risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, a preclinical model of progressive NAFLD/NASH is largely lacking. Here, we report that mice with hepatocyte-specific deletion of Tid1, encoding a mitochondrial cochaperone, tended to develop NASH-dependent HCC. Mice with hepatic Tid1 deficiency showed impairing mitochondrial function and causing fatty acid metabolic dysregulation; meanwhile, sequentially developed fatty liver, NASH, and cirrhosis/HCC in a diethylnitrosamine (DEN) induced oxidative environment. The pathological signatures of human NASH, including cholesterol accumulation and activation of inflammatory and apoptotic signaling pathways, are also present in these mice. Clinically, low Tid1 expression was associated with unfavorable prognosis in patients with HCC. Empirically, hepatic Tid1 deficiency directly disrupts entire mitochondria that play a key role in the NASH-dependent HCC development. Overall, we established a new mouse model that develops NASH-dependent HCC and provides a promising approach to improve the treatment.
