FGF-1 induces expression of LXRα and production of 25-hydroxycholesterol to upregulate the apoE gene in rat astrocytes
Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF-1) enhances apolipoprotein E (apoE) expression and apoE-HDL biogenesis in autocrine fashion in astrocytes (Ito, J., Y. Nagayasu, R. Lu, A. Kheirollah, M. Hayashi, and S. Yokoyama. Astrocytes produce and secrete FGF-1, which promotes the production of apoE-HDL in a man...

description | Fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF-1) enhances apolipoprotein E (apoE) expression and apoE-HDL biogenesis in autocrine fashion in astrocytes (Ito, J., Y. Nagayasu, R. Lu, A. Kheirollah, M. Hayashi, and S. Yokoyama. Astrocytes produce and secrete FGF-1, which promotes the production of apoE-HDL in a manner of autocrine action. J. Lipid Res. 2005. 46: 679–686) associated with healing of brain injury (Tada,T., J-i. Ito, M. Asai, and S. Yokoyama. Fibroblast growth factor 1 is produced prior to apolipoprotein E in the astrocytes after cryo-injury of mouse brain. Neurochem. Int. 2004. 45: 23–30). FGF-1 stimulates mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK/ERK) to increase cholesterol biosynthesis and phosphatidylinositol 3-OH kinase (PI3K)/Akt to enhance apoE-HDL secretion (Ito, J., Y. Nagayasu, K. Okumura-Noji, R. Lu, T. Nishida, Y. Miura, K. Asai, A. Kheirollah, S. Nakaya, and S. Yokoyama. Mechanism for FGF-1 to regulate biogenesis of apoE-HDL in astrocytes. J. Lipid Res. 2007. 48: 2020–2027). We investigated the mechanism for FGF-1 to upregulate apoE transcription. FGF-1 increased apoE and liver X receptor α (LXRα) mRNAs in rat astrocytes. Increase of LXRα mRNA was suppressed by inhibition of the FGF-1 receptor-1 and MEK/ERK but not by inhibition of PI3K/Akt. The increases of apoE mRNA and apoE-HDL secretion were both inhibited by downregulation or inhibition of LXRα, while they were partially suppressed by inhibiting cholesterol biosynthesis. We identified the liver X receptor element responsible for activation of the rat apoE promoter by FGF-1 located between −450 and −320 bp, and the direct repeat 4 (DR4) element in this region (−448 to −433 bp) was responsible for the activation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis supported that FGF-1 enhanced association of LXR with the rat apoE promoter. FGF-1 partially activated the apoE promoter even in the presence of an MEK inhibitor that inhibits the FGF-1-mediated enhancement of cholesterol biosynthesis. On the other hand, FGF-1 induced production of 25-hydroxycholesterol by MEK/ERK as an sterol regulatory element-dependent reaction besides cholesterol biosynthesis. We concluded that FGF-1-induced apoE expression in astrocytes depends on LXRα being mediated by both LXRα expression and an LXRα ligand biosynthesis. |
