Project description:Exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and high fat diet (HFD) results in nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in mice by altering intracellular signaling and inhibiting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. Post-transcriptional chemical modification (PTM) of RNA regulates biological processes. This study tested the hypothesis that PCB exposure alters the global RNA epitranscriptome in HFD-fed male mouse liver. C57BL/6J male mice were fed a 42% milk fat diet (HFD) and exposed to Aroclor 1260 (20mg/kg), PCB 126 (20 µg/kg), both Aroclor 1260 and PCB 126, or vehicle control for 12 weeks. RNA modifications altered by PCB exposure were analyzed in comparison to the readers, writers, and erasers of these marks in the RNA transcriptome.

Project description:Exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has been associated with liver injury in human cohorts and with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in mice fed a high fat diet (HFD). N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) modification of mRNA regulates transcript fate, but the contribution of m6A modification on regulation of transcription in PCB-induced steatosis and fibrosis is unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that PCB and HFD exposure alters the levels of m6A modification in transcripts that play a role in NASH in vivo. Male C57Bl6/J mice were fed a HFD (12 wks.) and administered a single oral dose of Aroclor1260, PCB126, or Aroclor1260 + PCB126. Genome-wide identification of m6A peaks was accomplished by m6A mRNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (m6A-RIP) and the mRNA transcriptome identified by RNA-seq. Exposure of HFD-fed mice to Aroclor1260 decreased the number of m6A peaks and m6A-containing genes relative to HFD control whereas PCB126 or the combination of Aroclor1260+PCB126 increased m6A modification frequency. ~ 41% of genes had one m6A peak and ~49% had 2-4 m6A peaks. 117 m6A peaks were common in the four experimental groups. The Aroclor1260 + PCB126 exposure group showed the highest number (52) of m6A-peaks. qRT-PCR confirmed enrichment of m6A-containing fragments of the Apob transcript with PCB exposure. Integrated analysis of m6A-RIP-seq and mRNA-seq identified 242 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with increased or reduced number of m6A peaks. Comparative pathway analysis identified “Immune response: IL-6-induced acute-phase response in hepatocytes” in the Aroclor1260 + PCB126 samples, consistent with steatohepatitis in human PCB epidemiological studies. These data show that PCB exposure in HFD-fed mice alters the m6A landscape offering an additional layer of regulation of gene expression affecting a subset of gene responses in NASH.

Project description:Exposure to high fat diet (HFD) and persistent organic pollutants including polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) is associated with liver injury in human populations and with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and steatohepatitis (NASH) in animal models. Exposure of HFD-fed male mice to the non-dioxin-like (NDL) PCB mixture Aroclor1260 or to dioxin-like (DL) PCB126 or to the combination caused steatohepatitis and differentially altered the liver proteome with pathways involving epigenetic regulation of gene expression. Here unbiased RNA sequencing of miRNA (miRNA-seq) and subsequent network analysis to characterize the biological pathways altered by HFD and PCB exposure compared to HFD alone. Distinct miRNA expression patterns reveald a potential role of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. These results demonstrate miRNA and transcriptome pathways in PCB-related hepatic inflammation and fibrosis in a mouse model of NAFLD.

Project description:Chemical modifications of proteins, DNA and RNA moieties play critical roles in regulating gene expression. Emerging evidence suggests these RNA modifications (epitranscriptomics) have substantive roles in basic biological processes. One of the most common modifications in mRNA and noncoding RNAs is N6-methyladenosine (m6A). In a subset of mammalian mRNAs, m6A sites are preferentially enriched near stop codons, in 3′ UTRs, and within exons, suggesting an important role in the regulation of mRNA processing and function including alternative splicing and gene expression. Very little is known about the effect of environmental chemical exposure on m6A modifications. As many of the commonly occurring environmental contaminants alter gene expression profiles and have detrimental effects on physiological processes, it is important to understand the effects of exposure on this important layer of gene regulation. Hence, the objective of this study was to characterize the acute effects of developmental exposure to PCB126, an environmentally relevant dioxin-like PCB, on m6A methylation patterns. We exposed zebrafish embryos to PCB126 for 6 hours starting from 72 hours post-fertilization and profiled m6A RNA using methylated RNA immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (MeRIP-seq), as well as assessing changes in mRNA splicing. We observed several hundreds of peaks that are differentially expressed in response to PCB126 exposure (FDR 5%). The majority of the peaks are preferentially located around the 3’UTR and stop codons. Pathway analysis of m6A marked transcripts induced by PCB126 exposure revealed that these transcripts are associated with important developmental pathways (MAPK, Hedgehog, Notch and Wnt). These results suggest that PCB126 could affect developmental gene expression patterns by altering m6A levels. Gene expression analysis revealed upregulation of classical aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) target genes such as cytochrome P450s in response to PCB126 exposure. Interestingly, none of the AHR target genes overlapped with the m6A altered transcripts, suggesting that xenobiotic metabolism may not be under m6A regulation. Further studies are necessary to understand the functional consequences of exposure-associated alterations in m6A levels. This work is supported by NIEHS ES024915.

Project description:Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are ubiquitous and representative pollutants that pose great health risks. While cells' responses to dioxin-like PCBs tend to be studied on a bulk scale, few studies have been made from a single-cell level. Here, by using single-cell RNA sequencing, we depicted a detailed landscape of hepatic nonparenchymal cells' intricate responses to PCB126 exposure. A total of 13 clusters were identified. Notably, PCB126 exposure resulted in cell-type-specific gene expression profiles and genetic pathways. By analyzing genes related to aryl hydrocarbon receptors, we discovered that PCB126 induced the canonical genomic AhR pathway mainly in endothelial cells. In contrast, other cell types showed little induction. Enrichment pathway analysis indicated that immune cells changed their transcriptional patterns in response to PCB126. ScRNA-seq is a powerful tool to dissect underlying mechanisms of chemical toxicity regarding biological heterogeneity. Taken together, our study not only extends our current understanding of PCB126 toxicity, but also emphasizes the importance of in vivo cell heterogeneity in environmental toxicology.
