Impaired SUMOylation of nuclear receptor LRH-1 promotes nonalcoholic fatty liver disease

Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Kristina Schoonjans, Dongryeol Ryu, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer, Pan Xu, Xu Wang, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva, Hadrien Charles Edouard Demagny

Hepatic steatosis is caused by metabolic imbalances that could be explained in part by an increase in de novo lipogenesis that results from increased sterol element binding protein 1 (SREBP-1) activity. The nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) ...

LRH-1-dependent programming of mitochondrial glutamine processing drives liver cancer

Arnaud Comment, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Kristina Schoonjans, Johan Auwerx, Norman Lionel Moullan, Dongryeol Ryu, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer, Emine Can, Pan Xu, Xu Wang, Hadrien Charles Edouard Demagny

Various tumors develop addiction to glutamine to support uncontrolled cell proliferation. Here we identify the nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) as a key regulator in the process of hepatic tumorigenesis through the coordination of a noncan ...

Hepatic glucose sensing and integrative pathways in the liver

Kristina Schoonjans, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer

The hepatic glucose-sensing system is a functional network of enzymes and transcription factors that is critical for the maintenance of energy homeostasis and systemic glycemia. Here we review the recent literature on its components and metabolic actions. ...

SUMOylation-Dependent LRH-1/PROX1 Interaction Promotes Atherosclerosis by Decreasing Hepatic Reverse Cholesterol Transport

Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Kristina Schoonjans, Chikage Mataki, Dongryeol Ryu, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer, Pan Xu, Keir Joe Menzies, Alessia Perino, Xu Wang, Vera Monica Lemos Da Silva

Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is an antiatherogenic process in which excessive cholesterol from peripheral tissues is transported to the liver and finally excreted from the body via the bile. The nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) driv ...

TGR5 Activation Inhibits Atherosclerosis by Reducing Macrophage Inflammation and Lipid Loading

Kristina Schoonjans, Johan Auwerx, Mitsunori Nomura, Thijs Pols, Taoufiq Harach, Maaike Hélène Oosterveer, Giuseppe Lo Sasso

The G protein-coupled receptor TGR5 has been identified as an important component of the bile acid signaling network, and its activation has been linked to enhanced energy expenditure and improved glycemic control. Here, we demonstrate that activation of T ...
