OBJECTIVES: Alcohol and its metabolites, such as acetaldehyde, induced hepatic mitochondrial dysfunction play a pathological role in the development of alcohol-related liver disease (ALD).
METHODS: In this study, we investigated the potential of nobiletin (NOB), a polymethoxylated flavone, to counter alcohol-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and liver injury.
RESULTS: Our findings demonstrate that NOB administration markedly attenuated alcohol-induced hepatic steatosis, endoplasmic reticulum stress, inflammation, and tissue damage in mice. NOB reversed hepatic mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in both alcohol-fed mice and acetaldehyde-treated hepatocytes. Mechanistically, NOB restored the reduction of hepatic mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) at both mRNA and protein levels. Notably, the protective effects of NOB against acetaldehyde-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death were abolished in hepatocytes lacking Tfam. Furthermore, NOB administration reinstated the levels of hepatocellular NRF1, a key transcriptional regulator of TFAM, which were decreased by alcohol and acetaldehyde exposure. Consistent with these findings, hepatocyte-specific overexpression of Nrf1 protected against alcohol-induced hepatic Tfam reduction, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and liver injury.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study elucidates the involvement of the NRF1-TFAM signaling pathway in the protective mechanism of NOB against chronic-plus-binge alcohol consumption-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and liver injury, suggesting NOB supplementation as a potential therapeutic strategy for ALD.
