Project description:The etiology of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) has been complicated. An increasing body of literature has indicated that hepatic oxidative stress exerts a causal role in driving NASH. Nevertheless, how the anti-oxidant defense system guards against oxidative stress and NASH remains unclear. In this study, we sought to investigate how the peroxidase peroxiredoxin 1 protects against NASH. To this end, we fed WT and hepatic PRDX1 knockout (Alb-Cre;Prdx1fl/fl) a methionine and choline deficient diet (MCD) for 5 weeks and collected liver samples for RNA sequencing analysis. As revealed by gene-set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, there was an enrichment of genes involved in JAK-STAT signaling. Further, we observed that the expression of many genes involved in JAK-STAT signaling such as Pdgfb and Pdgfra was significantly increased in Alb-Cre;Prdx1fl/fl mice. Collectively, these results suggest that increased JAK-STAT signaling accounts for the deteriorated NASH phenotypes in Alb-Cre;Prdx1fl/fl mice.

Project description:Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) down-regulates several signaling pathways in multiple cell types, and previous data suggest that SOCS3 may shut off cytokine activation at the early stages of liver regeneration. We developed hepatocyte-specific Socs3 knockout (Socs3 h-KO) mice to directly study the role of SOCS3 during liver regeneration after 2/3 partial hepatectomy (PH). Socs3 h-KO mice demonstrate marked enhancement of DNA replication and liver weight restoration after 2/3 PH in comparison with littermate controls. Without SOCS3, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) phosphorylation is prolonged, and activation of the mitogenic kinases extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) is enhanced after PH. In vitro, we show that SOCS3 deficiency enhances hepatocyte proliferation in association with enhanced STAT3 and ERK activation after epidermal growth factor (EGF) or interleukin 6 (IL-6) stimulation. Microarray analyses show that SOCS3 modulates a distinct set of genes after PH, which fall into diverse physiologic categories. Using a model of chemical-induced carcinogenesis, we found that Socs3 h-KO mice develop hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) at an accelerated rate. By acting on cytokines and multiple proliferative pathways, SOCS3 modulates both physiologic and neoplastic proliferative processes in the liver, and may act as a tumor suppressor. Experiment Overall Design: Hepatocyte-specific excision of the Socs3 gene was achieved by breeding Socs3 fl/fl mice with mice expressing the Cre recombinase transgene under control of the albumin promoter (Alb-Cre+), yielding Socs3 h-KO mice. Socs3 fl/fl, Alb-Cre- littermates were used as controls for all experiments, and are henceforth referred to as littermates. All mice (C57BL/6) were free of Helicobacter species, housed in a specific pathogen free facility with 12-h light/dark cycles with free access to standard food and water. 2/3 PH and sham operations were performed as previously described (15, 50) (n=3-6 mice per genotype per time point). Liver remnants were weighed after removal of necrotic stumps and sutures, and compared to post-operative body weight. For HCC experiments, a single i.p. injection of DEN (5mg/kg, Sigma) was performed 12-14 d after birth. For short time points, a single injection of DEN (100mg/kg) (31) was given to 4 wk old mice. At indicated time points, mice were sacrificed by CO2 inhalation. All animal studies were carried out under approved IACUC protocols at the University of Washington.

Project description:In order to further discover the resistance mechanism of Rack1F/F;Alb-cre mice to LPS/ GalN-induced fulfulant hepatitis, we used genome-wide microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify potential genes associated with resistance to LPS/ GalN-induced in Rack1F/F;Alb-cre mice. Fulminant hepatitis was induced by LPS/GalN in Rack1F/F;Alb-cre mice and Rack1F/F mice for 0, 1,3 and 6 hours, respectively.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Recent studies revealed that hemoglobin is expressed in some non-erythrocytes and it suppresses oxidative stress when overexpressed. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). This study was to investigate whether hemoglobin is expressed in hepatocytes and how it is related to oxidative stress in NASH patients. METHODS: Microarray was performed to identify differentially expressed genes in NASH. Quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to examine gene expression levels. Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining were employed to examine hemoglobin proteins. Flow cytometry was used to measure intracellular oxidative stress. RESULTS: Analysis of microarray gene expression data has revealed a significant increase in the expression of hemoglobin alpha (HBA1) and beta (HBB) in liver biopspies from NASH patients. Increased hemoglobin expression in NASH was validated by qRT-PCR. However, the expression of erythrocyte specific marker genes such as SPTA, SPTB, GYPA, GATA1, and ALAS2 did not change, indicating that increased hemoglobin expression in NASH was not from erythropoiesis, but could result from increased expression in hepatocytes. Immunofluorescence staining demonstrated positive HBA1 and HBB expression in the hepatocytes of NASH livers. Hemoglobin expression was also observed in human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cell line. Furthermore, treatment with hydrogen peroxide, a known oxidative stress inducer, induced a dose dependent increase in HBA1 expression in HepG2 cells. Intriguingly, forced hemoglobin expression suppressed oxidative stress. CONCLUSIONS: Oxidative stress upregulates hemoglobin expression in hepatocytes. Suppression of oxidative stress by hemoglobin could be a mechanism to protect hepatocytes from oxidative damage. These findings suggest that hemoglobin is an inducible antioxidant in hepatocytes in response to increased oxidative stress as found in NASH livers. Twelve biopsy diagnosed NASH patients were included in this study. For control groups, total RNA from 5 different subjects were purchased from ADMET. These subjects are free from liver disease.

Project description:Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is an autoimmune disease characterized by progressive destruction of the intrahepatic bile ducts. The immunopathology of PBC involves excessive inflammation; therefore, negative regulators of inflammatory response, such as Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1-Induced Protein-1 (MCPIP1) may play important roles in the development of PBC. The aim of this work was to verify whether Mcpip1 expression protects against development of PBC. Genetic deletion of Zc3h12a was used to characterize the role of Mcpip1 in the pathogenesis of PBC in 6-52-week-old mice. We found that Mcpip1 deficiency in the liver (Mcpip1fl/flAlbCre) recapitulates most of the features of human PBC, in contrast to mice with Mcpip1 deficiency in myeloid cells (Mcpip1fl/flLysMCre mice), which present with robust myeloid cell-driven systemic inflammation. In Mcpip1fl/flAlbCre livers, intrahepatic bile ducts displayed proliferative changes with inflammatory infiltration, bile duct destruction, and fibrosis leading to cholestasis. In plasma, increased concentrations of IgG, IgM, and AMA autoantibodies (anti-PDC-E2) were detected. Interestingly, the phenotype of Mcpip1fl/flAlbCre mice was robust in 6-week-old, but milder in 12-24-week-old mice. Hepatic transcriptome analysis of 6-week-old and 24-week-old Mcpip1fl/flAlbCre mice showed 812 and 8 differentially expressed genes, respectively, compared with age-matched control mice, and revealed a distinct set of genes compared to those previously associated with development of PBC. In conclusion, Mcpip1fl/flAlbCre mice display early postnatal phenotype that recapitulates most of the features of human PBC.

Project description:To investigate the role of hepatic Pck1 in diet-induced nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), liver-specific Pck1-knockout mice were developed with Alb-Cre. Wild-type (WT) and Pck1-cKO mice were fed a Chow diet (Research Diets, D12450J: 10% Kcal fat, with tap water) or NASH-inducing diet (Research Diets, D12492: 60% Kcal fat, with drinking water containig 23.1 g/L fructose and 18.9 g/L glucose) for 24 weeks. RNA was extracted from the livers of mice from all treatment groups and used for RNA seqencing. RNA-seq data demonstrated that gluconeogenic enzyme PCK1 deficiency played an important role in the development of NASH.
