Abstract
The global pandemic of metabolic diseases has increased the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in the context of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The downregulation of the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM21 has been linked to poor prognosis in different cancers including HCC. In order to investigate the role of TRIM21 in liver cancer progression on NASH, Trim21+/+ and Trim21-/- male mice were injected with streptozotocin at the neonatal stage. The hypoinsulinemic mice were then fed with a high-fat high-cholesterol diet (HFHCD) for 4, 8 or 12 weeks. All mice developed NASH which systematically resulted in HCC progression. Interestingly, compared to the Trim21+/+ control mice, liver damage was worsened in Trim21-/- mice, with more HCC nodules found after 12 weeks on HFHCD. Immune population analysis in the spleen and liver revealed a higher proportion of CD4+PD-1+ and CD8+PD-1+ T cells in Trim21-/- mice. The liver and HCC tumors of Trim21-/- mice also exhibited an increase in the number of PD-L1+ and CD68+ PD-L1+ cells. Thus, TRIM21 limits the emergence of HCC nodules in mice with NASH by potentially restricting the expression of PD-1 in lymphocytes and PD-L1 in tumors.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a chronic liver disease that emerged in industrialized countries, can further progress into liver fibrosis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. In the next decade, NASH is predicted to become the leading cause of liver transplantation, the only current interventional therapeutic option. Hepatocyte death, triggered by different death ligands, plays key role in its progression. Previously, we showed that the receptor-interacting protein kinase-1 (RIPK1) in hepatocytes exhibits a protective role in ligand-induced death. Now, to decipher the role of RIPK1 in NASH, Ripk1LPC-KO mice, deficient for RIPK1 only in liver parenchymal cells, and their wild-type littermates (Ripk1fl/fl) were fed for 3, 5, or 12 weeks with high-fat high-cholesterol diet (HFHCD). The main clinical signs of NASH were analyzed to compare the pathophysiological state established in mice. Most of the symptoms evolved similarly whatever the genotype, whether it was the increase in liver to body weight ratio, the steatosis grade or the worsening of liver damage revealed by serum transaminase levels. In parallel, inflammation markers followed the same kinetics with significant equivalent inductions of cytokines (hepatic mRNA levels and blood cytokine concentrations) and a main peak of hepatic infiltration of immune cells at 3 weeks of HFHCD. Despite this identical inflammatory response, more hepatic fibrosis was significantly evidenced at week 12 in Ripk1LPC-KO mice. This coincided with over-induced rates of transcripts of genes implied in fibrosis development (Tgfb1, Tgfbi, Timp1, and Timp2) in Ripk1LPC-KO animals. In conclusion, our results show that RIPK1 in hepatocyte limits the progression of liver fibrosis during NASH.

Abstract
The globally prevalent disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is characterized by a steatotic and inflammatory liver. In NASH patients, tissue repair mechanisms, activated by the presence of chronic liver damage, lead to the progressive onset of hepatic fibrosis. This scar symptom is a key prognostic risk factor for liver-related morbidity and mortality. Conflicting reports discuss the efficiency of dietary interventions on the reversibility of advanced fibrosis established during NASH. In the present study, the effect of dietary interventions was investigated in the outcome of the fibrosis settled in livers of C57BL/6J mice on a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet (HFHCD) for 5 or 12 consecutive weeks. Various clinico-pathological investigations, including a histological analysis of the liver, measurement of plasma transaminases, steatosis and fibrosis, were performed. To assess the effectiveness of the dietary intervention on established symptoms, diseased mice were returned to a standard diet (SD) for 4 or 12 weeks. This food management resulted in a drastic reduction in steatosis, liver injuries, inflammatory markers, hepatomegaly and oxidative stress and a gradual improvement in the fibrotic state of the liver tissue. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that dietary intervention can partially reverse liver fibrosis induced by HFHCD feeding.

Abstract
The increase of the sedentary lifestyle and high-calorie diet have modified the etiological landscape of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with a recrudescence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), especially in Western countries. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the impact of high-fat diet feeding on non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) establishment and HCC development. Streptozotocin-induced diabetic male mice were fed with high-fat-high-cholesterol diet (HFHCD) or high-fat-high-sugar diet (HFHSD) from 1 to 16 weeks. Even if liver tumors appear regardless of the high-fat diet, two distinct physiopathological patterns were evidenced, with much more severe NASH hallmarks (liver injury, inflammation and fibrosis) in diabetic mice fed with HFHCD. The mild hepatic injury, weak inflammation and fibrosis observed in HFHSD were interestingly associated with earlier emergence of more numerous liver tumors. When activated helper and cytotoxic T cells, detected by flow cytometry, infiltrated the liver of HFHCD-fed diabetic mice, a delay in the appearance of tumor nodules and a limitation of their numbers were observed, suggesting that the immune activities partly controlled tumor emergence. These data highlighted two different mouse models of HCC progression in diabetic mice depending on diet, which could be useful to evaluate new therapeutic approaches for HCC by targeting the immune response.

Abstract
Chlordecone is an organochlorine used in the 1970's as a pesticide in banana plantations. It has a long half-life in the soil and can potentially contaminate humans and animals through food. Chlordecone targets, and mainly accumulates in, the liver, leading to hepatomegaly and neurological signs in mammals. Chlordecone does not cause liver injuries or any inflammation by itself at low doses, but it can potentiate the hepatotoxic effects of other chemicals and drugs. We studied the impact of chlordecone on the progression of acute hepatitis in mouse models of co-exposure to chlordecone with Concanavalin A or murine hepatitis virus type 3. We examined the progression of these two types of hepatitis by measuring hepatic transaminase levels in the serum and inflammatory cells in the liver, liver histological studies. Amplified tremors presented in the MHV3- chlordecone mouse model had led us to study the expression of specific genes in the brain. We show that chlordecone amplifies the auto-immune hepatitis induced by Concanavalin A by increasing the number of liver NKT cells, which are involved in liver damage. Chlordecone also accelerated the death of mice infected by murine hepatitis virus and enhanced the entry of the virus into the cervical spinal cord in infected mice, leading to considerable neurological damage. In conclusion, chlordecone potentiates both the Concanavalin A-induced hepatitis and brain damage caused by an hepatotropic/neurotropic virus.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-33 has been recently reported to be strongly pro-fibrogenic in various models of liver disease. Our aim was to study the role of endogenous IL-33 in a diet-induced model of steatohepatitis. IL-33 deficient mice and wild type (WT) littermates received a high-fat diet (HFD), or a standard diet for 12 weeks. The HFD-induced steatohepatitis was associated with an upregulation of IL-33 transcripts and protein. An insulin tolerance test revealed lower systemic insulin sensitivity in IL-33-/—HFD mice than in WT-HFD mice. Nevertheless, IL-33 deficiency did not affect the severity of liver inflammation by histological and transcriptomic analyses, nor the quantity of liver fibrosis. Livers from HFD mice had more myeloid populations, markedly fewer NKT cells and higher proportion of ST2+ Treg cells and ST2+ type 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2), all unaffected by IL-33 deficiency. In conclusion, deficiency of endogenous IL-33 does not affect the evolution of experimental diet-induced steatohepatitis towards liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Excessive or persistent inflammation and hepatocyte death are the key triggers of liver diseases. The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) proteins induce cell death and inflammation. Chemical inhibition of PARP activity protects against liver injury during concanavalin A (ConA)-induced hepatitis. In this mice model, ConA activates immune cells, which promote inflammation and induce hepatocyte death, mediated by the activated invariant natural killer T (iNKT) lymphocyte population. We analyzed immune cell populations in the liver and several lymphoid organs, such as the spleen, thymus, and bone marrow in Parp2-deficient mice to better define the role of PARP proteins in liver immunity and inflammation at steady state and during ConA-induced hepatitis. We show that 1) the genetic inactivation of Parp2, but not Parp1, protected mice from ConA hepatitis without deregulating cytokine expression and leucocyte recruitment; 2) cellularity was lower in the thymus, but not in spleen, liver, or bone marrow of Parp2-/- mice; 3) spleen and liver iNKT lymphocytes, as well as thymic T and NKT lymphocytes were reduced in Parp2 knockout mice. In conclusion, our results suggest that the defect of T-lymphocyte maturation in Parp2 knockout mice leads to a systemic reduction of iNKT cells, reducing hepatocyte death during ConA-mediated liver damage, thus protecting the mice from hepatitis.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The genetic inactivation of Parp2, but not Parp1, protects mice from concanavalin A hepatitis. Immune cell populations are lower in the thymus, but not in the spleen, liver, or bone marrow of Parp2-deficient mice compared with wild-type mice. Spleen and liver invariant natural killer T (NKT) lymphocytes, as well as thymic T and NKT lymphocytes, are reduced in Parp2-deficient mice.

Abstract
Hepatocyte death is a central event during liver disease progression, in which immune cells play key roles by activating members of the Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor Superfamily (TNFRSF), including TNFR1 (TNFRSF1A), Fas (TNFRSF6) and TRAIL-R2 (TNFRSF10B). Receptor Interacting Protein Kinase 1 (RIPK1) emerged as a signaling node downstream of these receptors. In the case of TNFR1, RIPK1 has been demonstrated to paradoxically serve as a scaffold to promote the survival of hepatocytes and as a kinase to kill them. To evaluate whether RIPK1 also protects hepatocytes from death in response to FasL or TRAIL, we took advantage of liver parenchymal cell-specific Ripk1 knockout mice (Ripk1LPC-KO). We found that Ripk1LPC-KO mice, as well as primary hepatocytes derived from them, were more susceptible to Fas-mediated apoptosis than their respective WT counterparts. Fas-induced hepatocyte death was independent of TNF-α signaling. Interestingly, while TRAIL administration did not induce hepatitis in Ripk1LPC-KO mice or in their WT counterparts, its combination with IFN-γ only induced TNF-α dependent apoptosis in the Ripk1LPC-KO mice. Together, our data demonstrate the protective role of RIPK1 downstream of Fas and highlight the general protective function of RIPK1 in hepatocytes exposed to inflammatory conditions, where TNF-α, FasL and/or TRAIL are present.

Abstract
Necroptosis is a regulated form of cell death involved in several disease models including in particular liver diseases. Receptor-interacting protein kinases, RIPK1 and RIPK3, are the main serine/threonine kinases driving this cell death pathway. We screened a noncommercial, kinase-focused chemical library which allowed us to identify Sibiriline as a new inhibitor of necroptosis induced by tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in Fas-associated protein with death domain (FADD)-deficient Jurkat cells. Moreover, Sib inhibits necroptotic cell death induced by various death ligands in human or mouse cells while not protecting from caspase-dependent apoptosis. By using competition binding assay and recombinant kinase assays, we demonstrated that Sib is a rather specific competitive RIPK1 inhibitor. Molecular docking analysis shows that Sib is trapped closed to human RIPK1 adenosine triphosphate-binding site in a relatively hydrophobic pocket locking RIPK1 in an inactive conformation. In agreement with its RIPK1 inhibitory property, Sib inhibits both TNF-induced RIPK1-dependent necroptosis and RIPK1-dependent apoptosis. Finally, Sib protects mice from concanavalin A-induced hepatitis. These results reveal the small-molecule Sib as a new RIPK1 inhibitor potentially of interest for the treatment of immune-dependent hepatitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The severity of liver diseases is exacerbated by the death of hepatocytes, which can be induced by the sensing of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) derived from the gut microbiota. The molecular mechanisms regulating these cell death pathways are poorly documented. In this study, we investigated the role of the receptor interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), a protein known to regulate cell fate decisions, in the death of hepatocytes using two in vivo models of PAMP-induced hepatitis. METHODS Hepatitis was induced in mice by independent injections of two different bacterial PAMPs: lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and unmethylated CpG oligodeoxynucleotide (CpG-DNA) motifs. The role of RIPK1 was evaluated by using mice specifically lacking RIPK1 in liver parenchymal cells (Ripk1LPC-KO). Administration of liposome-encapsulated clodronate served to investigate the role of Kupffer cells in the establishment of the disease. Etanercept, a tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-decoy receptor, was used to study the contribution of TNF-α during LPS-mediated liver injury. RESULTS Whereas RIPK1 deficiency in liver parenchymal cells did not trigger basal hepatolysis, it greatly sensitized hepatocytes to apoptosis and liver damage following a single injection of LPS or CpG-DNA. Importantly, hepatocyte death was prevented by previous macrophage depletion or by TNF inhibition. CONCLUSIONS Our data highlight the pivotal function of RIPK1 in maintaining liver homeostasis in conditions of macrophage-induced TNF burst in response to PAMPs sensing. LAY SUMMARY Excessive death of hepatocytes is a characteristic of liver injury. A new programmed cell death pathway has been described involving upstream death ligands such as TNF and downstream kinases such as RIPK1. Here, we show that in the presence of LPS liver induced hepatic injury was due to secretion of TNF by liver macrophages, and that RIPK1 acts as a powerful protector of hepatocyte death. This newly identified pathway in the liver may be helpful in the management of patients to predict their risk of developing acute liver failure.

Abstract
Viral replication in the liver is generally detected by cellular endosomal Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) and cytosolic helicase sensors that trigger antiviral inflammatory responses. Recent evidence suggests that surface TLR2 may also contribute to viral detection through recognition of viral coat proteins but its role in the outcome of acute viral infection remains elusive. In this study, we examined in vivo the role of TLR2 in acute infections induced by the highly hepatotrophic mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) type 3 and weakly hepatotrophic MHV‐A59 serotype. To address this, C57BL/6 (wild‐type; WT) and TLR2 knockout (KO) groups of mice were intraperitoneally infected with MHV3 or MHV‐A59. MHV3 infection provoked a fulminant hepatitis in WT mice, characterized by early mortality and high alanine and aspartate transaminase levels, histopathological lesions and viral replication whereas infection of TLR2 KO mice was markedly less severe. MHV‐A59 provoked a comparable mild and subclinical hepatitis in WT and TLR2 KO mice. MHV3‐induced fulminant hepatitis in WT mice correlated with higher hepatic expression of interferon‐β, interleukin‐6, tumour necrosis factor‐α, CXCL1, CCL2, CXCL10 and alarmin (interleukin‐33) than in MHV‐A59‐infected WT mice and in MHV3‐infected TLR2 KO mice. Intrahepatic recruited neutrophils, natural killer cells, natural killer T cells or macrophages rapidly decreased in MHV3‐infected WT mice whereas they were sustained in MHV‐A59‐infected WT mice and MHV3‐infected TLR2 KO. MHV3 in vitro infection of macrophagic cells induced rapid and higher viral replication and/or interleukin‐6 induction in comparison to MHV‐A59, and depended on viral activation of TLR2 and p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase. Taken together, these results support a new aggravating inflammatory role for TLR2 in MHV3‐induced acute fulminant hepatitis.

Abstract
The IL-33/ST2 axis plays a protective role in T-cell-mediated hepatitis, but little is known about the functional impact of endogenous IL-33 on liver immunopathology. We used IL-33-deficient mice to investigate the functional effect of endogenous IL-33 in concanavalin A (Con A)-hepatitis. IL-33(-/-) mice displayed more severe Con A liver injury than wild-type (WT) mice, consistent with a hepatoprotective effect of IL-33. The more severe hepatic injury in IL-33(-/-) mice was associated with significantly higher levels of TNF-α and IL-1β and a larger number of NK cells infiltrating the liver. The expression of Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-10) and IL-17 was not significantly varied between WT and IL-33(-/-) mice following Con A-hepatitis. The percentage of CD25(+) NK cells was significantly higher in the livers of IL-33(-/-) mice than in WT mice in association with upregulated expression of CXCR3 in the liver. Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) strongly infiltrated the liver in both WT and IL-33(-/-) mice, but Con A treatment increased their membrane expression of ST2 and CD25 only in WT mice. In vitro, IL-33 had a significant survival effect, increasing the total number of splenocytes, including B cells, CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, and the frequency of ST2(+) Treg cells. In conclusion, IL-33 acts as a potent immune modulator protecting the liver through activation of ST2(+) Treg cells and control of NK cells.

Abstract
Interleukin (IL)-33 is crucially involved in liver pathology and drives hepatoprotective functions. However, the regulation of IL-33 by cytokines of the IL-6 family, including oncostatin M (OSM) and IL-6, is not well studied. The aim of the present study was to determine whether OSM mediates regulation of IL-33 expression in liver cells. Intramuscular administration in mice of an adenovirus encoding OSM (AdOSM) leads to increase in expression of OSM in muscles, liver, and serum of AdOSM-infected mice compared with control mice. The increase of circulating OSM markedly regulated mRNA of genes associated with blood vessel biology, chemotaxis, cellular death, induction of cell adhesion molecules, and the alarmin cytokine IL-33 in liver. Steady-state IL-33 mRNA was upregulated by OSM at an early phase (8 h) following AdOSM infection. At the protein level, the expression of IL-33 was significantly induced in liver endothelial cells [liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) and vascular endothelial cells] with a peak at 8 days post-AdOSM infection in mice. In addition, we found OSM-stimulated human microvascular endothelial HMEC-1 cells and human LSEC/TRP3 cells showed a significant increase in expression of IL-33 mRNA in a dose-dependent manner in cell culture. The OSM-mediated overexpression of IL-33 was associated with the activation/enrichment of CD4(+)ST2(+) cells in liver of AdOSM-infected mice compared with adenovirus encoding green fluorescent protein-treated control mice. In summary, these data suggest that the cytokine OSM regulates the IL-33 expression in liver endothelial cells in vivo and in HMEC-1/TRP3 cells in vitro and may specifically expand the target CD4(+)ST2(+) cells in liver.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Interleukin-33 (IL-33), a cytokine belonging to the IL-1 family, is crucially involved in inflammatory pathologies including liver injury and linked to various modes of cell death. However, a link between IL-33 and necroptosis or programmed necrosis in liver pathology remains elusive. We aimed to investigate the regulation of IL-33 during necroptosis-associated liver injury. The possible regulation of IL-33 during liver injury by receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) was investigated in mice in vivo and in hepatic stellate cells in vitro. The liver immunohistopathology, flow cytometry, serum transaminase measurement, ELISA, and qPCR-based cytokine measurement were carried out. By using a chemical approach, we showed that pretreatment of mice with Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) (inhibitor of RIPK1) and/or PJ34 (inhibitor of PARP-1) significantly protected mice against concanavalin A (ConA) liver injury (aspartate amino-transferase (AST)/alanine amino-transferase (ALT)) associated with down-regulated hepatocyte-specific IL-33 expression. In contrast, the expression level of most systemic cytokines (except for IL-6) or activation of liver immune cells was not altered by chemical inhibitors rather an increased infiltration of neutrophils in the liver. During polyinosine-polycytidylic acid (Poly(I:C))-induced acute hepatitis, liver injury and hepatocyte-specific IL-33 expression was also inhibited by PJ34 without any protective effect of PJ34 in CCl4-induced liver injury. Moreover, PJ34 down-regulated the protein expression of IL-33 in activated hepatic stellate cells by cocktail of cytokines or staurosporine in vitro. In conclusion, we evidenced that the Nec-1/PJ34 is a potent inhibitor of liver injury and Nec-1/PJ34 down-regulated hepatocyte-specific IL-33 expression in the liver in vivo or in hepatic stellate cells in vitro, suggesting IL-33 as a possible readout of necroptosis-involved liver pathologies. KEY MESSAGE Necroptosis inhibitors can protect mice against liver injury induced by ConA or Poly(I:C). IL-33 expression in liver injury in vivo is inhibited by PJ34. IL-33 expression in hepatic stellate cells in vitro is inhibited by PJ34. Hepatocyte-specific IL-33 expression is down-regulated by Nec-1/PJ34 during hepatitis. IL-33 is a new marker of necroptosis-associated liver injuries.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Interleukin (IL)-33, a member of the IL-1 cytokine family, positively correlates with acute hepatitis and chronic liver failure in mice and humans. IL-33 is expressed in hepatocytes and is regulated by natural killer T (NKT) cells during concanavalin A (ConA)-induced acute liver injury. Here, we investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the expression of IL-33 during acute hepatitis. The expression of IL-33 and its regulation by death receptor pathways was investigated after the induction of ConA-acute hepatitis in wildtype (WT), perforin(-/-) , tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)(-/-) , and NKT cell-deficient (CD1d(-/-) ) mice. In addition, we used a model of acute liver injury by administering Jo2/Fas-antibody or D-galactosamine-tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) in WT mice. Finally, the effect of TRAIL on IL-33 expression was assessed in primary cultured murine hepatocytes. We show that IL-33 expression in hepatocytes is partially controlled by perforin during acute liver injury, but not by TNFα or Fas ligand (FasL). Interestingly, the expression of IL-33 in hepatocytes is blocked during ConA-acute hepatitis in TRAIL-deficient mice compared to WT mice. In contrast, administration of recombinant murine TRAIL associated with ConA-priming in CD1d-deficient mice or in vitro stimulation of murine hepatocytes by TRAIL but not by TNFα or Jo2 induced IL-33 expression in hepatocytes. The IL-33-deficient mice exhibited more severe ConA liver injury than WT controls, suggesting a protective effect of IL-33 in ConA-hepatitis. CONCLUSION The expression of IL-33 during acute hepatitis is dependent on TRAIL, but not on FasL or TNFα.

Abstract
'Alarmins' are a group of proteins or molecules that are released from cells during cellular demise to alert the host immune system. Two of them, Interleukin-33 (IL-33) and high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1), share many similarities of cellular localization, functions and involvement in various inflammatory pathologies including hepatitis. The expressions of IL-33 and HMGB1, and their receptors ST2 and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), are substantially up-regulated during acute and chronic hepatitis. Recent data evidence a possible protective role of IL-33/ST2 axis during liver injury. A contrast in expression of IL-33 and HMGB1 alarmins were associated with type of hepatocellular death mediated by immune cells or hepato-toxic agents. The massive release of active form of IL-33 from hepatocytes may affect the recruitment and activation of its ST2-positive target immune cells in the liver to confer its alarmin functions. This review highlights the emerging roles of alarmin proteins in various liver pathologies, by focusing on classical HMGB1 and a newly discovered alarmin, the IL-33.

Abstract
Although TRAIL (tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related apoptosis inducing ligand) is a well-known apoptosis inducer, we have previously demonstrated that acidic extracellular pH (pHe) switches TRAIL-induced apoptosis to regulated necrosis (or necroptosis) in human HT29 colon and HepG2 liver cancer cells. Here, we investigated the role of RIPK1 (receptor interacting protein kinase 1), RIPK3 and PARP-1 (poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1) in TRAIL-induced necroptosis in vitro and in concanavalin A (Con A)-induced murine hepatitis. Pretreatment of HT29 or HepG2 with pharmacological inhibitors of RIPK1 or PARP-1 (Nec-1 or PJ-34, respectively), or transient transfection with siRNAs against RIPK1 or RIPK3, inhibited both TRAIL-induced necroptosis and PARP-1-dependent intracellular ATP depletion demonstrating that RIPK1 and RIPK3 were involved upstream of PARP-1 activation and ATP depletion. In the mouse model of Con A-induced hepatitis, where death of mouse hepatocytes is dependent on TRAIL and NKT (Natural Killer T) cells, PARP-1 activity was positively correlated with liver injury and hepatitis was prevented both by Nec-1 or PJ-34. These data provide new insights into TRAIL-induced necroptosis with PARP-1 being active effector downstream of RIPK1/RIPK3 initiators and suggest that pharmacological inhibitors of RIPKs and PARP-1 could be new treatment options for immune-mediated hepatitis.

Abstract
Development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a complex and progressive disease that involves cycles of liver cell death, inflammation, and tissue regeneration/remodelling. Chemokines and chemokine receptors play numerous and integral roles in the disease progression of HCC. Here we investigated the novel chemokine receptor CXCR7/RDC1 in HCC progression, its two known ligands CXCL12 and CXCL11, as well as the other CXCL12 receptor, CXCR4. Our results show that in a cohort of 408 human HCCs, CXCR7 and CXCL11 were significantly higher in tumours compared to normal liver controls (5- and 10-fold, respectively). Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining on human HCC sections confirmed that both CXCL11 and CXCR7 were much higher in cancer tissues. Furthermore, IHC staining revealed that CXCR7 protein was only expressed in endothelial cells whereas CXCL11 exhibited a much broader tissue expression. At the cellular level we observed that in vitro, human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) up-regulated CXCR7 under hypoxic and acidic pH conditions, which are well known characteristics of the HCC tumour micro-environment. As for its ligand, we observed that IFNγ robustly induced CXCL11 in hepatic stellate cells, hepatocytes, and HMEC-1s. In addition, in the mouse Diethylnitrosamine model of hepatocarcinogenesis we observed a very strong induction of CXCR7 and CXCL11 transcripts, confirming that CXCR7/CXCL11 up-regulation is conserved between human and mice liver cancer. Altogether, our results strongly support the hypothesis that the CXCL11/CXCR7 pathway is involved HCC progression.

Abstract
Interleukin-33 (IL-33) is thought to be released during cellular death as an alarming cytokine during the acute phase of disease, but its regulation in vivo is poorly understood. We investigated the expression of IL-33 in two mouse models of acute hepatitis by administering either carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4) ) or concanavalin A (ConA). IL-33 was overexpressed in both models but with a stronger induction in ConA-induced hepatitis. IL-33 was weakly expressed in vascular and sinusoidal endothelial cells from normal liver and was clearly induced in CCl(4) -treated mice. Surprisingly, we found that hepatocytes strongly expressed IL-33 exclusively in the ConA model. CD1d knock-out mice, which are deficient in NKT cells and resistant to ConA-induced hepatitis, no longer expressed IL-33 in hepatocytes following ConA administration. Interestingly, invariant NKT (iNKT) cells adoptively transferred into ConA-treated CD1d KO mouse restored IL-33 expression in hepatocytes. This strongly suggests that NKT cells are responsible for the induction of IL-33 in hepatocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Liver resection includes temporal vascular inflow occlusion resulting in ischemia/reperfusion injury in the remnant liver. Here, we developed a rat model of selective lobe occlusion to isolate reperfusion stress from ischemia and to analyze its effect on liver regeneration. METHODS Left lateral and median lobes of liver were either mobilized or subjected twice for 10min to ischemia followed by 5min reperfusion prior to resection while the regenerative lobes were only subjected to reperfusion. RESULTS Although intermittent reperfusion stress induced higher levels of serum transaminases, analysis of cell cycle regulators revealed accelerated regenerative response compared to standard partial hepatectomy. The G0/G1 transition occurred before tissue resection, as evidenced by c-fos, junB, and IL-6 induction. Following hepatectomy, Cyclin D1 up-regulation, G1/S transition, and cell division occurred earlier than normal. Unexpectedly, liver mobilization, a component of the clamping procedure, also resulted in earlier G1/S transition. The shortened G1-phase was driven by the c-Jun N-terminal Kinase pathway and was associated with an oxidative stress response as evidenced by the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase. CONCLUSION Intermittent selective clamping of lobes to be resected induced reperfusion stress on remnant liver that was beneficial for liver regeneration, suggesting this procedure could be applied in clinical practice.

Abstract
The entry pathway of the hepatitis C virus (HCV), a major human pathogen, into the cell is incompletely defined. To better characterize this viral life cycle stage, we screened a small interfering RNA library dedicated to the membrane trafficking and remodeling with the infection model of Huh-7.5.1 cells by HCV pseudoparticles (HCVpp). Results showed that the down-regulation of different factors implied in clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) inhibits HCVpp cell infection. In addition, knockdown of the phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase type III-alpha (PI4KIIIalpha) prevented infection by HCVpp or by cell-culture grown JFH-1-based HCV. Moreover, the replication activity of an HCV replicon was also affected by the PI4KIIIalpha knockdown. Additional investigations on the different members of the PI4K family revealed that the presence of PI4KIIIbeta in the host cells influenced their susceptibility to HCVpp infection and their capacity to sustain the HCV replication. The PI4KIII involvement during the HCV life cycle seemed to occur by other ways than the control of the CME or of the membranous expression of HCV receptors. Finally, our library screening completed data on the CME-dependant entry route of HCV and identified 2 kinases, PI4KIIIalpha and beta, as relevant potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Interleukin-33 (IL-33), the most recently identified member of the IL-1 family, induces synthesis of T Helper 2 (Th2)-type cytokines via its heterodimeric ST2/IL-1RAcP receptor. Th2-type cytokines play an important role in fibrosis; thus, we investigated the role of IL-33 in liver fibrosis. IL-33, ST2 and IL-1RAcP gene expression was analysed in mouse and human normal (n= 6) and fibrotic livers (n= 28), and in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC; n= 22), using real-time PCR. IL-33 protein was detected in normal and fibrotic liver sections and in isolated liver cells using Western blotting and immunolocalization approaches. Our results showed that IL-33 and ST2 mRNA was overproduced in mouse and human fibrotic livers, but not in human HCC. IL-33 expression correlated with ST2 expression and also with collagen expression in fibrotic livers. The major sources of IL-33 in normal liver from both mice and human beings are the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and, in fibrotic liver, the activated hepatic stellate cells (HSC). Moreover, IL-33 expression was increased in cultured HSC when stimulated by pro-inflammatory cytokines. In conclusion, IL-33 is strongly associated with fibrosis in chronic liver injury and activated HSC are a source of IL-33.

Abstract
AIM: To study the implication of prokineticin 1 (PK1/EG-VEGF) and prokineticin 2 (PK2/Bv8) in hepatocellular carcinoma angiogenesis.
METHODS: The gene induction of PK1/EG-VEGF and PK2/Bv8 was investigated in 10 normal, 28 fibrotic and 28 tumoral livers by using real time PCR. Their expression was compared to the expression of VEGF (an angiogenesis marker), vWF (an endothelial cell marker) and to CD68 (a monocyte/macrophage marker). Furthermore, the mRNA levels of PK1/EG-VEGF, PK2/Bv8, prokineticin receptor 1 and 2 were evaluated by real time PCR in isolated liver cell populations. Finally, PK2/Bv8 protein was detected in normal liver paraffin sections and in isolated liver cells by immunohistochemistry and immunocytochemistry.
RESULTS: PK2/Bv8 mRNA but not PK1/EG-VEGF was expressed in all types of normal liver samples examined. In the context of liver tumor development, we reported that PK2/Bv8 correlates only with CD68 and showed a significant decrease in expression as the pathology evolves towards cancer. Whereas, VEGF and vWF mRNA were significantly upregulated in both fibrosis and HCC, as expected. In addition, out of all isolated liver cells examined, only Kupffer cells (liver resident macrophages) express significant levels of PK2/Bv8 and its receptors, prokineticin receptor 1 and 2.
CONCLUSION: In normal liver PK2/Bv8 and its receptors were specifically expressed by Kupffer cells. PK2/Bv8 expression decreased as the liver evolves towards cancer and did not correlate with HCC angiogenesis.

Abstract
Arginine and ornithine are known to be important for various biological processes in the testis, but the delivery of extracellular cationic amino acids to the seminiferous tubule cells remains poorly understood. We investigated the activity and expression of cationic amino acid transporters in isolated rat Sertoli cells, peritubular cells, pachytene spermatocytes, and early spermatids. We assessed the l-arginine uptake kinetics, Na(+) dependence of transport, profiles of cis inhibition of uptake by cationic and neutral amino acids, and sensitivity to trans stimulation of cationic amino acid transporters, and studied the expression of the genes encoding them by RT-PCR. Our data suggest that l-arginine is taken up by Sertoli cells and peritubular cells, principally via system y(+)L (SLC3A2/SLC7A6) and system y(+) (SLC7A1 and SLC7A2), with system B(0+) making a minor contribution. By contrast, system B(0+), associated with system y(+)L (SLC3A2/SLC7A7 and SLC7A6), made a major contribution to the transport of cationic amino acids in pachytene spermatocytes and early spermatids. Sertoli cells had higher rates of l-arginine transport than the other seminiferous tubule cells. This high efficiency of arginine transport in Sertoli cells and the properties of the y(+)L system predominating in these cells strongly suggest that Sertoli cells play a key role in supplying germ cells with l-arginine and other cationic amino acids. Furthermore, whereas cytokines induce nitric oxide (NO) production in peritubular and Sertoli cells, little or no upregulation of arginine transport by cytokines was observed in these cells. Thus, NO synthesis does not depend on the stimulation of arginine transport in these somatic tubular cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As advanced prostate cancers are resistant to currently available chemotherapies, we evaluated the cytotoxic effect of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and characterized the involvement of its five receptors DR4, DR5, DcR1, DcR2, and osteoprotegerin (OPG) and of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC)-forming proteins caspase 8 and c-FLIP in prostate cell lines. METHODS We used six prostate cell lines, each corresponding to a particular stage in prostate tumorigenesis, and analyzed TRAIL sensitivity in relation to TRAIL receptors' expression. RESULTS TRAIL sensitivity was correlated with tumor progression and DR5 expression levels and apoptosis was exclusively mediated by DR5. DcR2 was significantly more abundant in tumor cells than in non-neoplastic ones and may contribute to partial resistance to TRAIL in some prostate tumor cells. Conversely, non-tumoral cells secreted high levels of OPG, which can protect them from apoptosis. Finally, caspase 8 expression levels were as DR5 directly correlated to TRAIL sensitivity in prostate tumor cells. CONCLUSION TRAIL-induced apoptosis is closely related to the balanced expression of its different receptors in prostate cancer cells and their modulation could be of potential clinical value for advanced tumor treatment.

Abstract
Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), a pleiotropic cytokine, is expressed in the rat testis and produced predominantly by peritubular myoid cells. The aims of this study were to characterize the testicular cell targets of LIF and to identify the role of LIF in the testis. The LIF receptor (LIF-R)/gp190 transcript was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in the rat testis from Day 13.5 postcoitum until adulthood. Seven highly purified testicular cell populations, representative of the major testicular constituents, were studied at transcriptional and protein levels by, respectively, RT-PCR and flow cytometry with biotinylated-LIF. Spermatogonia and, to a lesser extent, the somatic cells, exhibited specific LIF-binding sites. These results were strengthened by in situ analysis, showing predominant LIF-R immunoreactivity in spermatogonia at all ages studied. In addition to the 190-kDa LIF-R, Western blot analysis revealed the presence of a 50- to 60-kDa C-terminal gp190 isoform. This truncated form, which is unable to bind LIF, was the only form expressed in meiotic germ cells, suggesting an original down-regulation process of LIF-R expression during spermatogenesis. Finally, we showed that LIF increased [3H]-thymidine incorporation in spermatogonia in microdissected, cultured seminiferous tubules. Taken together, our results strongly suggest that LIF has a role in the regulation of the spermatogonial cell compartment.

Abstract
Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine known to control the proliferation and survival of stem cells including primordial germ cells and gonocytes. This led us to study the origin and regulation of testicular LIF. The LIF transcript was detected in the rat testis by RT-PCR from 13.5 days postcoitum until adulthood. LIF expression was investigated further in vitro in seven different highly purified testicular cell populations using RT-PCR and bioassays combined with neutralization experiments. LIF was found to be produced by peritubular cells and, to a much lesser extent, by the other testicular somatic cell types. No LIF was detected in meiotic and postmeiotic germ cell-conditioned medium, and only low levels of LIF were detected in spermatogonia-conditioned medium. Large amounts of bioactive LIF were measured in testicular lymph. While LIF production was greatly enhanced in presence of serum, lipopolysaccharide, and TNFalpha further increased this production in peritubular and Sertoli cells, and human CG enhanced Leydig cell LIF production. In conclusion, peritubular cells are the principal source of testicular LIF, probably accounting for its high concentration in the lymph. Given the proliferative effect of LIF on immature germ cells, we suggest that peritubular LIF plays an important role in the regulation of testicular function.

Abstract
Correct regulation of spermatogonial mitosis and, more specifically, the control of the balance between differentiation and proliferation to allow renewal of the stem cell stock, are essential for the maintenance of spermatozoa production throughout life. The mechanisms underlying this control are still unknown. However, recent studies suggest that some locally produced cytokines may be involved in the regulation of spermatogonial activity. In this context, Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) exhibits interesting properties regarding stem cells and, particularly, primordial germ cells. The present study aimed at investigating LIF production and LIF binding abilities by/of the different testicular cells types (somatic and germ cells). Our study demonstrates that LIF is produced within the testis, mainly by peritubular cells which are in the vicinity of spermatogonia, the latter cells expressing high levels of LIF receptors. These results strongly suggest an involvement of LIF in the control of spermatogonial activity.

Abstract
Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) is structurally related to interleukin-6 (IL-6), oncostatin M (OSM), and ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF). Since LIF-deficient mice do not exhibit overt phenotypic effects in cell types known to be targets for LIF action in vitro, we examined the ability of IL-6, OSM, and CNTF to reproduce the effects of LIF in five different bioassays. OSM, CNTF, and LIF are able to promote embryonic stem cell growth and to maintain them in an undifferentiated state as marked by a high alkaline phosphatase activity (ED50 are, respectively, 0.5, 3 and 1 ng/ml). Whereas LIF and OSM maintain close to 100% of ES cells in an undifferentiated state, CNTF, at optimal concentrations, prevents differentiation of only 60% of the ES population. Murine 7TD1 hybridoma cell growth is induced only in the presence of IL-6 (ED50 = 0.1 ng/ml). Both LIF and OSM stimulate DA1a cell proliferation (ED50 are, respectively, 1 and 12 ng/ml). OSM appears, therefore, to act as a weak agonist of LIF-dependent processes on murine cells, however, with a 10-fold lower specific activity than that of LIF, which is in agreement with human OSM cross-reacting with the murine LIF-R. Though IL-6, LIF, and OSM all stimulate haptoglobin and fibrinogen production by human HepG2 hepatoma cells, the dose-response curves of these three factors exhibit very different characteristics. CNTF stimulates acute-phase protein production by HepG2 cells only at high concentrations (greater than 1 microgram/ml). A549 epithelial cells are subjected to growth inhibition only in the presence of OSM (ED50 = 6 ng/ml), even though they expressed LIF-R and gp130 transcripts. These data suggest that OSM and LIF act on human cells through different receptors. Altogether, these results indicate that none of the factors examined in this study are precisely interchangeable in terms of their biological actions.

Abstract
Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) interacts with two classes of high affinity binding sites on rat UMR cells cultured in monolayer. One class of binding sites was found to be localized in the extracellular matrix (ECM) after removal of cells from the culture dish. The interaction of LIF with ECM-localized binding sites is not dependent upon either glycosylation of LIF or the presence of extracellular glycosyaminoglycans. Chemical cross-linking studies demonstrate that LIF interacts with a 200-kD cell-associated protein and a 140-kD ECM-localized protein. A 140-kD protein could also be specifically precipitated from solubilised metabolically radiolabeled UMR ECM by antibodies directed against LIF by virtue of its ability to form a stable complex with unlabeled LIF. In addition, soluble LIF associated with this ECM-localized protein is biologically active in terms of inhibition of ES cell differentiation. The properties of ECM-localized 140-kD species are very similar to those of the secreted form of the LIF receptor suggesting that the ECM localization of LIF and LIF signal transduction may be closely coupled.

Abstract
The second international congress on cytokines, held in Florence (March 23-25, 1992), has been marked by the presentation of recent data about cytokine-deficient mice obtained by homologous recombination which, contrary to expectation, exhibit normal T and B cell development. The cloning of a few new cytokines and receptors were also reported as well as recent advances in the knowledge of the oldest members of this quickly growing family. The meeting has also been marked by a great number of reports providing insights into T cell-dependent immune response. Participants provided evidence, through their different experimental models, that functional T helper dichotomy, TH1 versus TH2, was of physiological relevance both in mice and humans, while other reports highlighted the differential regulation of these T lymphocytes subsets. An interesting discussion took place about their differentiation process and the harmonization of the concepts of naive, memory and effector T cells with the T subset classification according to cytokine production profile.

Abstract
Our recent evidence for the requirement of endogeneous histamine in IL-3-induced proliferation of day-8 CFU-S has prompted us to investigate whether or not GM-CSF, which shares with IL-3 the ability to stimulate bone marrow histamine synthesis, could also affect the cell cycle status of CFU-S via this mediator. We show herein that recombinant GM-CSF alone fails to trigger day-8 CFU-S into S phase, but supports their survival. However, in the same experimental conditions, GM-CSF in combination with IL-1 induces a CFU-S proliferation similar to that obtained in response to IL-3, while IL-1 by itself has no effect on this biological activity. We further provide evidence that this phenomenon is completely abolished: i) by preventing GM-CSF-induced histamine synthesis by alpha-FMH, the specific inhibitor of histidine decarboxylase (HDC), or ii) by blocking the binding sites of H2 histamine receptors with their specific antagonist oxmetidine. Similar results are obtained when progenitor-enriched bone marrow cells are used instead of the unfractionated population. In addition, we provide an argument in support of a histamine receptor modulation by GM-CSF that could explain the lack of effect of factor-induced histamine on day-8 CFU-S cell cycling. Indeed, the entry of these progenitors into S phase that is normally promoted by dimaprit, a specific histamine H2 receptor agonist, is abolished by a preincubation with GM-CSF. Taken together, our data support the conclusion that IL-1 makes CFU-S sensitive to GM-CSF-induced endogeneous histamine that will trigger them into cell cycle, while GM-CSF alone has no such effect on this biological activity.

Abstract
We show herein that lipopolysaccharides (LPS), in vitro, synergize with GM-CSF to increase histamine synthesis by murine bone marrow cells. LPS has no effect on its own and does not potentiate histamine synthesis promoted by IL-3, the only other cytokine sharing this biological activity with GM-CSF. Despite the fact that GM-CSF and LPS synergistically increase PGE2 levels, the potentiating effect of LPS does not require PGE2 that have been previously shown to enhance GM-CSF-induced histamine synthesis. We provide evidence that this effect of LPS on histamine production by bone marrow cells is mediated by the intracellular cAMP transduction signal. In addition, LPS and cAMP enhance GM-CSF-induced histidine decarboxylase activity, showing that both substances act on histamine synthesis. Contrary to in vitro results, LPS injection into mice induces an increase in both intracellular histamine and HDC activity in bone marrow cells. Our results support the conclusion that this effect is mediated by GM-CSF. In conclusion, LPS appears to be a powerful HDC inducer in hematopoietic organs because of its ability, on one hand, to induce circulating GM-CSF and, on the other hand, to potentiate GM-CSF induction of HDC.

Abstract
Histamine synthesis in response to Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) by murine hematopoietic cells is strikingly potentiated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). This synergy is mediated by an increase in intracellular adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), since: (a) exogeneous and endogeneous cAMP generated either by forskolin or IBMX potentiate GM-CSF-induced histamine synthesis, (b) the maximal potentiating effects of PGE2 and cAMP are not cumulative, and (c) GM-CSF together with PGE2 enhances intracellular cAMP content in a bone marrow population enriched for GM-CSF target cells. cAMP and PGE2 enhance histidine decarboxylase activity induced by GM-CSF showing that both factors act on histamine synthesis rather than on its release. Conversely, histamine synthesis promoted by Interleukin 3 (IL-3), the unique cytokine sharing this property with GM-CSF, is not modulated by PGE2 or cAMP, suggesting two distinct mechanisms for the induction of this biological activity in hematopoietic cells.

Abstract
Antigenic challenge of Nippostrongylus brasiliensis-infected mice induces a striking increase in histidine decarboxylase (HDC) activity in both spleen and bone marrow cells. This enhancement takes place within 1 h after injection, with a maximum at 4 h and a return to pretreatment values 20 h later. It is associated with the appearance of IL-3 in the sera of these mice. In addition, the intracellular histamine content in both hematopoietic organs is concomitantly increased. A similar injection of worm Ag into normal mice has no significant effect. Comparable enhancement of HDC activity and intracellular histamine content with almost identical kinetics is promoted by i.v. injection of rIL-3 into normal mice. Moreover, HDC levels in infected mice are increased to the same extent in response to either specific antigen or rIL-3 injection. Taken together these results support the conclusion that antigenic challenge of immunized mice induces endogeneous IL-3 which, in turn, promotes a rapid increase in histamine synthesis in hematopoietic organs.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of histamine generated by murine bone marrow cells in response to IL-3 on one particular biological activity of this growth factor, i.e., triggering of cells forming colonies in spleen (CFU-S) into S phase. Evidence is provided that i) IL-3-induced day-8 CFU-S cell cycling, evaluated by hydroxy-urea suicide, is completely abrogated when the binding of histamine to its H2 receptors is blocked by the specific antagonist oxmetidine, whereas cetirizine, a H1 receptor antagonist, is ineffective; and ii) the entry of day-8 CFU-S into S phase in response to IL-3 is likewise abolished when the histamine synthesis promoted by the growth factor is prevented by alpha-fluoromethylhistidine, a specific inhibitor of the histamine-forming enzyme, histidine decarboxylase. Similar results are obtained with both drugs, when a progenitor-enriched bone marrow population is used instead of total cells. Furthermore, i.v. injection of recombinant (r)IL-3 results within 2 hr in a substantial increase in bone marrow cell histamine synthesis together with triggering of day-8 CFU-S into cycle, the latter being completely abolished by a simultaneous injection of the H2 histamine receptor antagonist oxmetidine. Thus, our findings support the notion that both in vitro and in vivo the proliferation of early CFU-S in response to IL-3 is modulated by histamine via its H2 receptors. This conclusion is also consistent with the observation that dimaprit, a specific agonist of these receptors not only enhances the sensitivity of day-8 CFU-S to HU after a 2 hr incubation with bone marrow cells but also increases, to the same extent as IL-3, the number of colonies formed in irradiated spleens after a 5 hr pretreatment.

Abstract
Previously, we have shown that granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) stimulates histamine synthesis by normal murine hematopoietic cells. Addition of either interleukin (IL) 1 (alpha or beta) or murine recombinant tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha to murine recombinant GM-CSF (at optimal or suboptimal concentrations) enhances its activity on bone marrow histamine synthesis up to 70%. Evidence is provided that these synergies between GM-CSF and IL 1 or TNF-alpha are mediated by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) production since (a) GM-CSF together with either IL 1 or TNF-alpha stimulates PGE2 synthesis by bone marrow cells, while none of these factors does it alone; (b) exogenous PGE2 (ranging from 10(-6) M to 10(-10) M) potentiates GM-CSF-induced histamine synthesis in a dose-dependent manner; and (c) indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, completely abrogates the synergistic action of IL 1 and TNF-alpha on GM-CSF-induced histamine generation. Conversely, histamine synthesis promoted by IL 3, the unique cytokine sharing this property with GM-CSF, cannot be modulated by IL 1, TNF-alpha or PGE2, suggesting two distinct mechanisms for the induction of this biological activity in hematopoietic progenitor cells.
