BACKGROUND: Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is a leading cause of chronic liver disease worldwide. Autophagy plays a pivotal role in lipid metabolism; however, the mechanism underlying the reduced autophagic activity in MAFLD remains elusive.
METHODS: Autophagy was monitored by TUNEL assay and immunofluorescence staining of LC3. The expression of autophagy-related proteins, PPARα, HDAC2, and HRD1 was detected by Western blot. The association between HDAC2 and PPARα promoter was assessed by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) and dual-luciferase assays, and the HRD1-mediated ubiquitin-proteasomal degradation of HDAC2 was detected by co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP). The in vitro findings were validated in a hypoxia-induced MAFLD mouse model. Histological changes, fibrosis, and apoptosis in liver tissues were detected by hematoxylin and eosin staining, Masson's trichrome staining, and TUNEL assay. The immunoreactivities of key molecules were examined by IHC analysis.
RESULTS: Hypoxia-suppressed autophagy in hepatocytes. Hypoxic exposure downregulated HRD1 and PPARα, while upregulating HDAC2 in hepatocytes. Overexpression of PPARα promoted hepatic autophagy, while knocking down HDAC2 or overexpressing HRD1 reduced hypoxia-suppressed autophagy in hepatocytes. Mechanistically, HDAC2 acted as a transcriptional repressor of PPARα, and HRD1 mediated the degradation of HDAC2 through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Functional studies further showed that hypoxia-suppressed hepatic autophagy via the HRD1/HDAC2/PPARα axis in vitro and in vivo.
CONCLUSION: HRD1-mediated ubiquitination of HDAC2 regulates PPARα-mediated autophagy and ameliorates hypoxia-induced MAFLD.
