Project description:Background and Aims: Host-cell factor 1 (HCF-1), encoded by the ubiquitously expressed X linked gene Hcfc1, is an epigenetic co-regulator important for mouse development and cell proliferation, including during liver regeneration. Here, we examine the role of HCF-1 in adult tissue physiology using, as model, the resting mouse liver. Methods: We used a hepatocyte-specific inducible Hcfc1 knock-out allele (called Hcfc1hepKO), to induce HCF-1 loss in hepatocytes of hemizygous Hcfc1 hepKO/Y males by four days. In heterozygous Hcfc1hepKO/+ females, owing to random X-chromosome inactivation, upon Hcfc1hepKO allele induction, a 50/50 mix of HCF-1 positive and negative hepatocyte clusters is engineered. Results: The livers with Hcfc1hepKO/Y hepatocytes displayed a 21–24-day terminal non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) followed by non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) disease progression typical of severe NAFL disease (NAFLD). In contrast, in livers with heterozygous Hcfc1hepKO/+ hepatocytes, HCF-1-positive hepatocytes replaced HCF-1-negative hepatocytes and revealed only mild-NAFL development. Loss of HCF-1 led to loss of PGC1 alpha protein levels, probably owing to its destabilization, and deregulation of gene expression particularly of genes involved in mitochondrial structure and function, likely explaining the severe Hcfc1hepKO/Y liver pathology. Interestingly, although HCF-1 binds to over 5000 transcriptional start sites in the resting liver, expression of only a minor subset of the associated genes was affected by HCF-1 loss. Conclusion: HCF-1 is essential for proper liver physiology likely playing both transcriptional and non-transcriptional roles. These genetically-engineered loss-of-HCF-1 mice represent models for the study of NASH and NAFLD resolution.

Project description:The mechanisms underlying the progression of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are not completely elucidated. In this study we have integrated gene expression profiling of liver biopsies of NASH patients with translational studies in a mouse model of steatohepatitis and with pharmacological interventions in isolated hepatocytes to identify a novel mechanism implicated in the pathogenesis of NASH. By using high-density oligonucleotide microarray analysis we identified a significant enrichment of known genes involved in the multi-step catalysis of long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, including delta-5 and 6 desaturases. A combined inhibitor of delta-5 and delta-6 desaturases significantly reduced intracellular lipid accumulation and inflammatory gene expression in isolated hepatocytes. Gas chromatography analysis revealed impaired delta-5 desaturase activity toward the omega-3 pathway in livers from mice with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced NASH. Consistently, restoration of omega-3 index in transgenic fat-1 mice expressing an omega-3 desaturase, which allows the endogenous conversion of omega-6 into omega-3 fatty acids, produced a significant reduction in hepatic insulin resistance, hepatic steatosis, macrophage infiltration and necroinflammatory liver injury, accompanied by attenuated expression of genes involved in inflammation, fatty acid uptake and lipogenesis. These results were comparable to those obtained in a group of mice receiving a HFD supplemented with EPA/DHA. Of interest, hepatocytes from fat-1 mice or supplemented with EPA exhibited synergistic anti-steatotic and anti-inflammatory actions with the delta-5/ delta-6 inhibitor. Conclusion: These findings indicate that both endogenous and exogenous restoration of the hepatic balance between omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids and/or modulation of desaturase activities exert preventive actions in NASH. The complete database comprised the expression measurements of 18185 genes for liver sample groups: 8 non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH ) and 7 control samples. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Project description:Current therapeutic strategies for treating non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) have failed to alleviate liver fibrosis, which is a devastating feature leading to hepatic dysfunction. Here, we integrated single-nucleus transcriptomics and epigenomics to characterize all major liver cell types during NASH development in mice and humans. The bifurcation of hepatocyte trajectory with NASH progression was conserved between mouse and human. At the non-alcoholic fatty liver (NAFL) stage, hepatocytes exhibited metabolic adaptation, whereas at the NASH stage, a subset of hepatocytes was enriched for the signatures of cell adhesion and migration, which was mainly demarcated by receptor tyrosine kinase EphB2. EphB2, acting as a downstream effector of Notch signaling in hepatocytes, was sufficient to induce cell-autonomously inflammation. Knockdown of Ephb2 in hepatocytes ameliorated inflammation and fibrosis in NASH. Thus, EphB2 expressing hepatocytes contribute to NASH progression and may serve as a potential therapeutic target.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is continuum of disorders among which non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is particularly associated with a negative prognosis. Hepatocyte lipotoxicity is one of the main pathogenic factors of liver fibrosis and NASH. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating this process are poorly understood. Here, we integrated transcriptomic and chromatin accessibility analyses from human liver and mouse hepatocytes to identify lipotoxicity-sensitive transcription factors. We found that the transcription factors MAFK and TCF4 were activated in liver from NASH patients and by mouse hepatocyte lipotoxicity. Genetic deletion of these transcription factors protected hepatocytes against saturated fatty acid oversupply. Notably, MAFK- and TCF4-regulated gene expression linked to lipotoxicity closely correlated with transcriptional patters in fibrosis progression in NASH patients. Collectively, our findings uncovered novel molecular insights into lipotoxicityinduced NASH, revealing the relevance and therapeutic potential of MAFK and TCF4 in human disease.

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.
