Dual modulation of human hepatic zonation via canonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways

The hepatic lobule is divided into three zones along the portal-central vein axis. Hepatocytes within each zone exhibit a distinctive gene expression profile that coordinates their metabolic compartmentalization. The zone-dependent heterogeneity of hepatocytes has been hypothesized to result from the differential degree of exposure to oxygen, nutrition and gut-derived toxins. In addition, the gradient of Wnt signaling that increases towards the central vein seen in rodent models is believed to play a critical role in shaping zonation. Furthermore, hepatic zonation is coupled to the site of the homeostatic renewal of hepatocytes. Despite its critical role, the regulatory mechanisms that determine the distinctive features of zonation and its relevance to humans are not well understood. The present study first conducted a comprehensive zone-dependent transcriptome analysis of normal human liver using laser capture microdissection. Upstream pathway analysis revealed the signatures of host responses to gut-derived toxins in the periportal zone, while both the canonical Wnt pathway and the xenobiotic response pathway govern the perivenular zone. Furthermore, we found that the hypoxic environment of the perivenular zone promotes Wnt11 expression in hepatocytes, which then regulates unique gene expression via activation of the non-canonical Wnt pathway. In summary, our study reports the comprehensive zonation-dependent transcriptome of the normal human liver. Our analysis revealed that the LPS response pathway shapes the characteristics of periportal hepatocytes. By contrast, the perivenular zone is regulated by a combination of three distinct pathways: the xenobiotic response pathway, canonical Wnt signaling, and hypoxia-induced noncanonical Wnt signaling.

<P>Cholesterol synthesis is a highly oxygen-dependent process. Paradoxically, hypoxia is correlated with an increase in cellular and systemic cholesterol levels and risk of cardiovascular diseases. The mechanism for the increase in cholesterol during hypoxia is unclear. Hypoxia signaling is mediated through hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and HIF-2α. The present study demonstrates that activation of HIF signaling in the liver increases hepatic and systemic cholesterol levels due to a decrease in the expression of cholesterol hydroxylase CYP7A1 and other enzymes involved in bile acid synthesis. Specifically, activation of hepatic HIF-2α (but not HIF-1α) led to hypercholesterolemia. HIF-2α repressed the circadian expression of Rev-erbα, resulting in increased expression of E4BP4, a negative regulator of <I>Cyp7a1</I>. To understand if HIF-mediated decrease in bile acid synthesis is a physiologically relevant pathway by which hypoxia maintains or increases systemic cholesterol levels, two hypoxic mouse models were assessed, an acute lung injury model and mice exposed to 10% O<SUB>2</SUB> for 3 weeks. In both models, cholesterol levels increased with a concomitant decrease in expression of genes involved in bile acid synthesis. The present study demonstrates that hypoxic activation of hepatic HIF-2α leads to an adaptive increase in cholesterol levels through inhibition of bile acid synthesis.</P>
