dc.description.abstract | Background & Aims: Hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) have a role in liver fibrosis. Guanine nucleotide-binding alpha-subunit 12 (G alpha(12)) converges signals from G-protein-coupled receptors whose ligand levels are elevated in the environment during liver fibrosis; however, information is lacking on the effect of G alpha(12) on HSC trans-differentiation. This study investigated the expression of G alpha(12) in HSCs and the molecular basis of the effects of its expression on liver fibrosis.Methods: G alpha(12) expression was assessed by immunostaining, and immunoblot analyses of mouse fibrotic liver tissues and primary HSCs. The role of G alpha(12) in liver fibrosis was estimated using a toxicant injury mouse model with G alpha(12) gene knockout and/or HSC-specific G alpha(12) delivery using lentiviral vectors, in addition to primary HSCs and LX-2 cells using microRNA (miR) inhibitors, overexpression vectors, or adenoviruses. miR-16, G alpha(12), and LC3 were also examined in samples from patients with fibrosis.Results: G alpha(12) was overexpressed in activated HSCs and fibrotic liver, and was colocalised with desmin. In a carbon tetrachloride-induced fibrosis mouse model, G alpha(12) ablation prevented increases in fibrosis and liver injury. This effect was attenuated by HSC-specific lentiviral delivery of G alpha(12). Moreover, G alpha(12) activation promoted autophagy accompanying c-Jun N-terminal kinase-dependent ATG12-5 conjugation. In addition, miR-16 was found to be a direct inhibitor of the de novo synthesis of G alpha(12). Modulations of miR-16 altered autophagy in HSCs. In a fibrosis animal model or patients with severe fibrosis, miR-16 levels were lower than in their corresponding controls. Consistently, cirrhotic patient liver tissues showed G alpha(12) and LC3 upregulation in desmin-positive areas.Conclusions: miR-16 dysregulation in HSCs results in G alpha(12) overexpression, which activates HSCs by facilitating autophagy through ATG12-5 formation. This suggests that G alpha(12) and its regulatory molecules could serve as targets for the amelioration of liver fibrosis. (C) 2017 European Association for the Study of the Liver.
