Tumor Necrosis Factor–Like Weak Inducer of Apoptosis Is a Mitogen for Liver Progenitor Cells
Open accessAbstract
Liver progenitor cells (LPCs) represent the cell compartment facilitating hepatic regeneration during chronic injury while hepatocyte-mediated repair mechanisms are compromised. LPC proliferation is frequently observed in human chronic liver diseases such as hereditary hemochromatosis, fatty liver disease, and chronic hepatitis. In vivo studies have suggested that a tumor necrosis factor family member, tumor necrosis factor–like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK), is promitotic for LPCs; whether it acts directly is not known. In our murine choline-deficient, ethionine-supplemented (CDE) model of chronic liver injury, TWEAK receptor [fibroblast growth factor-inducible 14 (Fn14)] expression in the whole liver is massively upregulated. We therefore set out to investigate whether TWEAK/Fn14 signaling promotes the regenerative response in CDE-induced chronic liver injury by mitotic stimulation of LPCs. Fn14 knockout (KO) mice showed significantly reduced LPC numbers and attenuated inflammation and cytokine production after 2 weeks of CDE feeding. The close association between LPC proliferation and activation of hepatic stellate cells in chronic liver injury prompted us to investigate whether fibrogenesis was also modulated in Fn14 KO animals. Collagen deposition and expression of key fibrogenesis mediators were reduced after 2 weeks of injury, and this correlated with LPC numbers. Furthermore, the injection of 2-week-CDE-treated wildtype animals with TWEAK led to increased proliferation of nonparenchymal pan cytokeratin–positive cells. Stimulation of an Fn14-positive LPC line with TWEAK led to nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NFκB) activation and dose-dependent proliferation, which was diminished after targeting of the p50 NFκB subunit by RNA interference. Conclusion: TWEAK acts directly and stimulates LPC mitosis in an Fn14-dependent and NFκB-dependent fashion, and signaling via this pathway mediates the LPC response to CDE-induced injury and regeneration.

“The LPC response is also diminished in lymphotoxin beta KO mice [25] and Fn14 KO mice in which tumour necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) signalling is attenuated and both inflammation and the LPC response are suppressed [26].”

“For the following experiments, LX-2 was maintained with 100 ng/mL of TWEAK for 24 h, the concentration of which was referred to previous studies (Jakubowski et al., 2005; Tirnitz-Parker et al., 2010) and determined by our preliminary experiment.”

“TWEAK is a potent inducer of HPC proliferation [16,17,18]; in particular, it has a selectivemitogenic effect for the liver progenitor ("oval") cells in rodents, while an increased Fn14 expression in chronic hepatitis C and related diseases suggests a similar role for the TWEAK/Fn14 pathway in humans [19].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
