| Abstract | UNLABELLED: Impaired mitochondrial function is largely thought to be a core abnormality responsible for disease progression in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the molecular mechanisms resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction in NAFLD remain poorly understood. This study examined the effects of excessive accumulation of free fatty acids (FFAs) in liver cells on mitochondrial function and the role of the lysosomal-mitochondrial axis on lipotoxicity. Primary mouse hepatocytes, HepG2 and McNtcp.24 cells, were treated with varied concentrations of FFAs with different degrees of saturation for up to 24 hours. Mitochondrial function was monitored by real-time imaging, cytochrome c redistribution, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. The temporal relationship of lysosomal and mitochondrial permeabilization was established. Activity of the lysosomal protease cathepsin B was suppressed by genetic and pharmacological approaches. Cathepsin B-knockout mice and wild-type animals were place on a high-carbohydrate diet for 16 weeks, and mitochondrial function and liver damage were assessed. Exposure of liver cells to saturated FFAs resulted in mitochondrial depolarization, cytochrome c release, and increased ROS production. Lysosomal permeabilization and cathepsin B redistribution into the cytoplasm occurred several hours prior to mitochondrial dysfunction. Either pharmacological or genetic inhibition of cathepsin B preserved mitochondrial function. Finally, cathepsin B inactivation protected mitochondria, decreased oxidative stress, and attenuated hepatic injury in vivo. CONCLUSION: These data strongly suggest excessive accumulation of saturated FFAs in liver cells directly induce mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. Our data further suggest this process is dependent on lysosomal disruption and activation of cathepsin B. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
