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.

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-b, interleukin-6, tumour necrosis factor-a, 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-A59infected 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.

However, the precise molecular mechanisms of hepatocyte cell death, the role of the cytokines of hepatic microenvironment and the involvement of intracellular kinases, remain unclear. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a key cytokine involved in cell death or survival pathways and the role of RIPK1 has been associated to the TNF-α-dependent signaling pathway. We took advantage of two different deficient mouse lines, the RIPK1 kinase dead knock-in mice (Ripk1 K45A) and the conditional knockout mice lacking RIPK1 only in liver parenchymal cells (Ripk1 LPC-KO), to characterize the role of RIPK1 and TNF-α in hepatitis induced by concanavalin A (ConA). Our results show that RIPK1 is dispensable for liver homeostasis under steady-state conditions but in contrast, RIPK1 kinase activity contributes to caspase-independent cell death induction following ConA injection and RIPK1 also serves as a scaffold, protecting hepatocytes from massive apoptotic cell death in this model. In the Ripk1 LPC-KO mice challenged with ConA, TNF-α triggers apoptosis, responsible for the observed severe hepatitis. Mechanism potentially involves both TNF-independent canonical NF-κB activation, as well as TNF-dependent, but canonical NF-κB-independent mechanisms. In conclusion, our results suggest that RIPK1 kinase activity is a pertinent therapeutic target to protect liver against excessive cell death in liver diseases.

Murine hepatitis virus (MHV) infection represents a unique animal model to identify new escape mechanisms in liver of innate immune responses. The objective of this study was to identify early disorders in TLRs, helicases, cytokines and chemokines favoring the development of a fulminant hepatitis. Groups of C57BL/6 WT and TLR2-/- mice were infected with highly hepatotropic MHV3 and/or weakly hepatotropic MHV-A59 viruses. Histopathological analysis of liver and mRNA expression levels of viral nucleoprotein, viral sensors, interferons, cytokines and chemokines assessed by RT-qPCR were done in the first 3 days of infection. The results showed that liver damages, viral replication and mRNA levels of TLR-2, TLR-3, RIG-1, MDA-5, IL-33, IFN-b, CXCL1, CXCL9, CXCL-10, CXCL-11, CCL3, CCL5, IL-6 and TNF-a increased higher or appeared sooner in MHV3-infected WT than in MHV-A59 and TLR2-/- mice. To address the role of hepatocytes in TLR2-dependent viral replication and innate immune factors, in vitro viral infections were performed on FL83B cells. The results showed that viral replication and mRNA levels of TLR-2 and IL-6 occurred sooner than those of other innate immune parameters. Moreover, blockade of TLR-2 by siRNA decreased IFN-b, TNF-a, CXCL-1, CXCL-10 and CCL-2 expression in infected hepatocytes and also inhibited the viral replication of MHV-A59, and at a lesser extent of MHV3, suggesting that TLR-2 signaling promotes simultaneously the viral replication and the production of innate immune factors in hepatocytes, exacerbating viral hepatitis.

Reactive bands will be identified using LCMS/LTQ. siRNA targeting, followed by proliferation and invasion assays, will be carried out in order to observe if any knockdown occurs. 645 Poster Tumour-derived high molecular weight M-CSF induces monocyte differentiation into M2-polarized macrophages

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.

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-␣ (PI4KIII␣) prevented infection by HCVpp or by cell-culture grown JFH-1based HCV. Moreover, the replication activity of an HCV replicon was also affected by the PI4KIII␣ knockdown. Additional investigations on the different members of the PI4K family revealed that the presence of PI4KIII␤ 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, PI4KIII␣ and ␤, as relevant potential therapeutic targets.
