Spatial proteogenomics reveals distinct and evolutionarily conserved hepatic macrophage niches

The liver is the largest solid organ in the body, yet it remains incompletely characterized. Here we present a spatial proteogenomic atlas of the healthy and obese human and murine liver combining single-cell CITEseq, single-nuclei sequencing, spatial tran ...

SMN Depleted Mice Offer a Robust and Rapid Onset Model of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Bernard Schneider

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is considered a health epidemic with potential devastating effects on the patients and the healthcare systems. Current preclinical models of NAFLD are invariably imperfect and generally take a lon ...

Biogeography and biochemistry of bile acid 7-dehydroxylation in the mammalian gut

Solenne Anne Marie Marion

Bile acids (BAs) are small molecules synthesized by the host and chemically modified by the microorganisms inhabiting the intestinal tract. The microbial transformation of BAs in the gut is critical to BA-mediated signaling as it modifies their amount and ...

Investigating the deregulation of metabolic tasks via Minimum Network Enrichment Analysis (MiNEA) as applied to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease using mouse and human omics data

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Vikash Kumar Pandey

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with metabolic syndromes spanning a wide spectrum of diseases, from simple steatosis to the more complex nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. To identify the deregulation that occurs in metabolic processes at ...

Plasma and liver lipid species as biomarkers of fatty liver

Johan Auwerx, Pooja Jha

The invention relates to plasma or liver lipid species selected from the triacylglycerol (TAG) and cardiolipin (CL) lipid classes measured by LC-MS/MS and use thereof as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of fatty liver, as well as to monitor the efficac ...

Fas cell surface death receptor controls hepatic lipid metabolism by regulating mitochondrial function

Johan Auwerx, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Eija Riitta Pirinen, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease is one of the most prevalent metabolic disorders and it tightly associates with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Reduced mitochondrial lipid oxidation contributes to hepatic fatty acid accumulation. Her ...

Degradation of PHLPP2 by KCTD17, via a Glucagon-Dependent Pathway, Promotes Hepatic Steatosis

Johan Auwerx, Dongryeol Ryu

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Obesity-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) develops, in part, via excess insulin-stimulated hepatic de novo lipogenesis, which increases, paradoxically, in patients with obesity-induced insulin resistance. Pleckstrin homolo ...

Ferritin H gene deletion in the choroid plexus and forebrain results in hydrocephalus

Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer

Ferritin H, the major iron storage protein, has essential functions in early embryonic development as well as in adult liver and intestine. To address the question whether ferritin H has similarly essential functions in the brain we used the Cre/loxP syste ...

c-Myc and its target FoxM1 are critical downstream effectors of constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) mediated direct liver hyperplasia

Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Christelle Dubey, Armin Ehninger

In the adult liver, 1,4-bis[2-(3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)] benzene (TCPOBOP), an agonist of the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR, NR1I3), produces rapid hepatomegaly in the absence of injury. In this study, we identify c-Myc as a gene induced by CAR and ...

Mitochondrion is the principal target for nutritional and pharmacological control of triglyceride metabolism

Johan Auwerx

Fish oil polyunsaturated fatty acids and fibrate hypolipidemic drugs are potent hypotriglyceridemic agents that act by increasing fatty acid catabolism and decreasing triglyceride synthesis and secretion by the liver. A major unresolved issue is whether th ...
