Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by the accumulation of lipid droplets (LD) in hepatocytes. NAFLD development and progression is associated with an increase in hepatic cholesterol and decreased autophagy and lipophagy flux. Previous studies have shown that the expression of lysosomal acid lipase (gene=LIPA, protein=LAL), which can hydrolyze both triglyceride and cholesteryl esters, is inversely correlated with the severity of NAFLD. In addition, ablation of LAL activity results in profound NAFLD. Based on this, we predicted that overexpressing LIPA in the livers of mice fed a Western diet (FPC) would prevent the development of NAFLD. As expected, mice fed the FPC diet exhibited numerous markers of NAFLD including hepatomegaly, lipid accumulation, and inflammation. Unexpectedly, LAL overexpression did not attenuate steatosis and had only minor effects on neutral lipid composition. However, LAL overexpression exacerbated inflammatory gene expression and infiltration of immune cells in mice fed the FPC diet. LAL overexpression also resulted in abnormal phagosome accumulation and lysosomal lipid accumulation depending upon the dietary treatment. Hepatic overexpression of LAL drove immune cell infiltration and inflammation and did not attenuate the development of NAFLD suggesting that targeting LAL expression is not a viable route to treat NAFLD.

Project description:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), the most common form of kidney cancer, is a heterogeneous disease with clear cell RCC (ccRCC) being the most prevalent and aggressive subtype. While most ccRCC tumors have elevated expression of angiopoietin-like 4 (ANGPTL4), in our study we identified a significant subset of patients whose cancers show no increase in ANGPTL4 expression. These patients have a worse prognosis compared to the patients with high expression of ANGPTL4. These ANGPTL4-low cancers are characterized by the increased frequency of wild-type Von Hippel-Lindau (wt VHL), a gene that is commonly mutated in ccRCC, and an enrichment for genes associated with lipid metabolism. Using RCC tumor models with wild type VHL, we demonstrate that ANGPTL4 behaves as a tumor suppressor. The loss of ANGPTL4 in ccRCC cell lines results in increased tumor growth and colony formation in a lysosomal acid lipase (LAL)-dependent manner, a phenotype rescued by the expression of N-terminus ANGPTL4. At the mechanistic level, the loss of ANGPTL4 increases lysosomal acid lipase activity in ccRCC cells. This data suggests that ANGPTL4 enacts its tumor-suppressive effects in ccRCC by regulating LAL activity. Importantly, the identified patient cohort with low ANGPTL4 expression may exhibit increased reliance on lipid metabolism, which can be a point of target for future therapy.

Project description:Lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) is the sole lysosomal enzyme responsible for the degradation of cholesteryl esters and triacylglycerols at acidic pH. Impaired LAL activity leads to LAL deficiency (LAL-D), a severe and fatal disease characterized by ectopic lysosomal lipid accumulation. Reduced LAL activity also contributes to the development and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). To advance our understanding of LAL-related liver pathologies, we performed comprehensive proteomic profiling of livers from mice with systemic genetic loss of LAL (Lal-/-) and from mice with hepatocyte-specific LAL-D (hepLal-/-). Lal-/- mice exhibited drastic proteome alterations, including dysregulation of multiple proteins related to metabolism, inflammation, liver fibrosis, and cancer. Global loss of LAL activity impaired both acidic and neutral lipase activities and resulted in hepatic lipid accumulation, indicating a complete metabolic shift in Lal-/- livers. Hepatic inflammation and immune cell infiltration were evident, with numerous upregulated inflammation-related gene ontology biological process terms. In contrast, both young and mature hepLal-/- mice displayed only minor changes in the liver proteome, suggesting that loss of LAL solely in hepatocytes does not phenocopy metabolic alterations observed in mice globally lacking LAL. These findings provide valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying liver dysfunction in LAL-D and may help in understanding why decreased LAL activity contributes to NAFLD. Our study highlights the importance of LAL in maintaining liver homeostasis and demonstrates the drastic consequences of its global deficiency on the liver proteome and liver function.

Project description:Lysosomal acid lipase deficiency (LAL-D) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutation in LIPA gene, which results in fat accumulation in liver and spleen leading to multi-organ failure. The severe form of LAL-D (infantile-onset; ≤5% residual LAL activity), if left untreated, results in premature death within the first year of life due to failure to thrive and hepatic insufficiency. Enzyme replacement therapy is the only available supportive treatment consisting in weekly systemic injection of recombinant LAL. Here, we characterize a novel LAL-D mouse model and develop a curative gene therapy treatment based on the in vivo administration of recombinant AAV8 (rAAV8) vector encoding for human LIPA transgene under the control of hepatocyte-specific promoter. We define the minimal AAV dose required to rescue disease lethality and to produce and secrete sufficient LAL to correct cholesterol and triglycerides accumulation in liver, spleen, blood cells and plasma. Finally, using liver transcriptomic and biochemical analysis, we also show the impairment of mitochondria associated with LAL-D and its recovery by gene therapy. Overall, our in vivo gene therapy strategy achieves stable long-term LAL expression to correct disease phenotype in LAL-D mouse model and opens a new therapeutic option for LAL-D patients.

Project description:Background & Aims Recent studies showed that patients suffering from lysosomal acid lipase-deficiency (LAL-D) benefit tremendously from enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), however, the outcomes on liver histology in treated patients were inconsistent. The promising results of the pan-PPAR agonist lanifibranor in alleviating liver inflammation in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis prompted us to investigate the effects of lanifibranor on liver pathology in LAL knockout (Lal-/-) mice. Methods Lal-/- mice were daily gavaged with lanifibranor or vehicle for 21 days. The effects of the treatment were assessed by measuring body and organ weights, plasma lipids and lipoproteins, as well as hematological parameters, followed by liver proteomics and metabolomics. Results Lanifibranor treatment slightly altered organ weights without affecting the total body weight of Lal-/- mice. We observed major changes in the proteome, with multiple proteins related to lipid metabolism, peroxisomal, and mitochondrial activities being upregulated and inflammation-related proteins being downregulated in the livers of treated mice. Hepatic lipid levels and histology remained unaltered, whereas plasma triglyceride and total cholesterol levels were decreased and the lipoprotein profile of lanifibranor-treated Lal-/- mice improved. Conclusions Lanifibranor treatment positively affected liver inflammation and lipoprotein homeostasis in Lal-/- mice. These findings support further evaluation of lanifibranor in combination with ERT for phenotype improvement in Lal-/- mice and a possible exploration avenue for the treatment of LAL-D in humans.
