PROTEOMIC ANALYSIS OF DYSFUNCTIONAL LIVER SINUSOIDAL ENDOTHELIAL CELLS REVEALS SUBSTANTIAL DIFFERENCES IN MOST COMMON EXPERIMENTAL MODELS OF CHRONIC LIVER DISEASES.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Molecular markers of dedifferentiation of dysfunctional liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC), have not been fully elucidated. We aimed at deciphering the molecular profile of dysfunctional LSEC in different pathological scenarios. Flow cytometry was used to sort CD11bˉ/CD32b+ and CD11bˉ/CD32bˉLSEC from three rat models of liver disease (bile duct ligation-BDL, inhaled carbon tetrachloride-CCl4 and high fat glucose/fructose diet-HFGFD). Full proteomic profile was performed applying nano-scale liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (nLC-MS) and analyzed with PEAKS software. The percentage of CD32bˉ LSEC varied across groups, suggesting different capillarization processes. Both CD32+ and CD32bˉLSEC from models are different from control LSEC but differently expressed proteins in CD32bˉLSEC are significantly higher. Heatmaps evidenced specific protein expression patterns for each model. Analysis of biological significance comparing dysfunctional CD32bˉLSEC with specialized CD32b+ LSEC from controls showed central similarities represented by 45 common downregulated proteins involved in the suppression of the endocytic machinery and 63 common upregulated proteins associated with the actin-dependent cytoskeleton reorganization. In summary, substantial differences but also similarities in dysfunctional LSEC from the three most common models of liver disease were found, supporting the idea that LSEC may harbor different protein expression profiles according to the etiology or disease stage.
