Project description:Purpose：Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare hereditary disorder due to ATP7B gene mutation, causing pathologic copper storage mainly in the liver and neurological systems. Hepatocyte transplantation showed therapeutic potential, however, this strategy is often hindered by a shortage of quality donor cells and by allogeneic immune rejection. Here we evaluate the function and efficacy of autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene-restored hepatocytes using a murine model of WD Mathods and Results: By reprogramming hepatocytes from ATP7B-/- mice with small molecules, sufficient liver progenitor cells (LPCs) are harvested. After lentivirus-mediated miniATP7B gene transfection and re-differentiation, functional LPC-ATP7B-Heps are developed. RNA-seq data show that compared with LPC-GFP-Heps with enrichment of genes mainly in pathways of oxidative stress and cell apoptosis, in LPC-ATP7B-Heps under high copper stress pathways for copper ion binding and cell proliferation are enriched. LPC-ATP7B-Heps transplantation into ATP7B-/- mice alleviates deposition of excess liver copper with its associated inflammation and fibrosis, comparable to those observed using normal primary hepatocytes at four months after transplantation. Conclusion: We establish the autologous reprogrammed, ATP7B gene restored LPC-ATP7B-Heps and further transplantation demonstrate alleviated copper accumulation in WD mice.

Project description:To understand whether hepatic cells use autophagy to defend against Cu toxicity in WD, we employed ATP7B knockout (ATP7B-KO) HepG2 cell line, by Quant-seq experiments. Transcriptome analysis of the of ATP7B KO cells and WT cells treated with Copper (Cu) compared with untreated cells.

Project description:The H1069Q substitution in the liver-specific copper transporter ATP7B represents the major cause of Wilson disease. The mutated ATP7B undergoes rapid degradation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and fails to reach copper excretion compartments thus causing severe copper toxicosis in patients. Modulating the ATP7B-H1069Q interactome was proposed as a rescue strategy but specific binding partners that might be targeted for mutant correction remain elusive. Here we try to identify a mutant-specific interactor for the pharmacological rescue of ATP7B-H1069Q.

Project description:To find new genes that might be targeted for reduction of Copper (Cu) toxicity in Wilson disease we employed genome-wide shRNA screening in ATP7B-KO HepG2 cells, a bona fide WD cell model. Cells were screened using the Dharmacon™ Decode™ Pooled Lentiviral shRNA Screening Library targeting 18205 human genes (Dharmacon #RHS6083). The Lentiviral RNAi screening library is made of 10 pools of 9570 GIPZ short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) packaged into high-titer lentiviral particles. Genomic DNA was isolated from the cells and read counts for each shRNAs were obtained by deep sequencing to determine the abundance of each shRNA in the Cu-treated cells compared to controls. This analysis allowed the identification of genes whose downregulation promoted survival of ATP7B-KO cells upon Cu overload. To exclude that some shRNAs would have been responsible for ATP7B-KO survival by suppressing generic proapoptotic genes, we run the same screening with the proapoptotic drug vinblastine instead of CuCl2. Genes, whose suppression allowed cell to resist Cu but not vinblastine were considered as Cu-specific hits and through this approach we identified PrP as a suitable target for reduction of Cu toxicity in WD. Indeed, we found that Cu accumulation in ATP7B-KO cells stimulates expression of PrP, which brings to toxic Cu overload while PrP suppression significantly reduces Cu accumulation and toxicity in ATP7B-deficient cells. In sum our data highlight an important regulatory role of PrP in copper metabolism and as a therapeutic tool for Wilson disease.

Project description:Inactivating mutations in the copper transporter Atp7b result in Wilson’s disease. The Atp7b-/- mouse develops hallmarks of Wilson’s disease. The activity of several nuclear receptors is decreased in Atp7b-/- mice, and nuclear receptors are critical for maintaining metabolic homeostasis. Therefore, we anticipated that Atp7b-/- mice would exhibit altered progression of diet-induced obesity, fatty liver, and insulin resistance. Following 10 weeks on a chow or Western-type diet (40% kcal fat), parameters of glucose and lipid homeostasis were measured. Hepatic metabolites were measured by LC-MS and correlated with transcriptomic data. Atp7b-/- mice fed a chow diet had lower fat mass and were more glucose tolerant than wild type (WT) littermate controls although body weights did not differ between genotypes. On Western diet, Atp7b-/- mice exhibited reduced adiposity and hepatic steatosis compared with WT controls. Atp7b-/- mice fed either diet were more insulin sensitive than WT controls; however, fasted Atp7b-/- mice exhibited hypoglycemia after administration of insulin, due to an impaired glucose counter-regulatory response, as evidenced by reduced hepatic glucose production. Coupling gene expression with metabolomic analyses, we observed striking changes in hepatic metabolic profiles in Atp7b-/- mice. In addition, the active phosphorylated form of AMP kinase was significantly increased in Atp7b-/- mice relative with WT controls. Alterations in hepatic metabolic profiles and nuclear receptor signaling were associated with improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, as well as impaired fasting glucose production in Atp7b-/- mice.

Project description:Wilson disease (WD) is a severe metabolic disorder caused by genetic inactivation of copper-transporting ATPase ATP7B. In WD, copper accumulates in several tissues, particularly in the liver, inducing marked time-dependent pathological changes. To identify initial events in the copper-dependent development of liver pathology we utilized the Atp7b-/- mice, an animal model for WD. Analysis of mRNA from livers of control and Atp7b-/- 6 weeks-old mice using oligonucleotide arrays revealed specific changes of the transcriptome at this stage of copper accumulation. Few messages (29 up-regulated and 46 down-regulated) change their abundance more than 2-fold pointing to the specific effect of copper on gene expression/mRNA stability. The gene ontology analysis revealed copper effects on distinct metabolic pathways. Keywords: comparative genomic hybridization

Project description:Wilson’s disease (WD) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the ATP7B gene. These mutations impact the expression and/or function of the copper-transporting ATP7B protein, leading to massive toxic accumulation of copper in the liver and brain. Due to its low incidence and highly variable clinical presentations, WD is challenging to diagnose. Here, we explored the plasma proteome of the Atp7b-/- mouse, a genetic and phenotypic model of WD, to provide new insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of WD and discover potential biomarkers for WD diagnosis. A mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics workflow combining unbiased discovery analysis followed by targeted quantification was developed. Analysis of two independent groups of samples (discovery and validation cohorts) highlighted seven plasma proteins for which abundance was significantly modified (more than 2-fold) between Atp7b-/- mice and wild-type littermates. To assess the clinical significance and specificity of these seven proteins as potential biomarkers for WD, we adapted our targeted proteomics assay to allow the quantification of human orthologues in plasma from WD patients (treated with copper chelators), non-alcoholic steatohepatitis patients (disease-control group), and healthy donors. The plasma proteome changes observed in the Atp7b-/- mouse were not confirmed in treated WD patients, with the exception of alpha-1 antichymotrypsin, levels of which were decreased in WD patients compared to healthy individuals. Plasma ceruloplasmin was investigated in both the Atp7b-/- mouse model and human patients, and was found to be significantly decreased in the human form of WD only.
