Hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) mainly develop from liver cirrhosis and severe liver fibrosis that are established with long-lasting inflammation of the liver. Silencing of the suppressor of the cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS1) gene, a negative regulator of cytokine signaling, by DNA methylation has been implicated in development or progress of HCC. However, how SOCS1 contributes to HCC is unknown. We examined SOCS1 gene methylation in >200 patients with chronic liver disease and found that the severity of liver fibrosis is strongly correlated with SOCS1 gene methylation. In murine liver fibrosis models using dimethylnitrosamine, mice with haploinsufficiency of the SOCS1 gene (SOCS1−/+ mice) developed more severe liver fibrosis than did wild-type littermates (SOCS1+/+ mice). Moreover, carcinogen-induced HCC development was also enhanced by heterozygous deletion of the SOCS1 gene. These findings suggest that SOCS1 contributes to protection against hepatic injury and fibrosis, and may also protect against hepatocarcinogenesis.

AbstractLiver fibrosis is a patho-physiological process which can develop into cirrhosis, and hepatic carcinoma without intervention. Our study extensively investigated the mechanisms of lncRNA NEAT1 and miR-139-5p in regulating liver fibrosis progression. Our results demonstrated that the expression of lncRNA NEAT1 was increased and the expression of miR-139-5p was decreased in fibrotic liver tissues. LncRNA NEAT1 could sponge miR-139-5p and promoted hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) activation by directly inhibiting the expression of miR-139-5p. The co-localization of lncRNA NEAT1 with miR-139-5p was shown in the cytosols of activated HSCs. miR-139-5p upregulation could suppress the expression of β-catenin. The overexpression of β-catenin promoted HSCs activation. Moreover, we found that β-catenin could interact with SOX9 promoted HSCs activation. Our further studies demonstrated that SOX9 could bind with the TGF-β1 promoter and promoted the transcription activity of TGF-β1. The upregulation of TGF-β1 further promoted HSCs activation. In vivo study also suggested that lncRNA NEAT1 knockdown and miR-139-5p overexpression alleviated murine liver fibrosis. LncRNA NEAT1 exacerbated liver fibrosis by suppressing the expression of miR-139-5p. Collectively, our study suggested that miR-139-5p sponged by lncRNA NEAT1 regulated liver fibrosis via targeting β-catenin/SOX9/TGF-β1 Pathway.
