Abstract

AbstractNon-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease around the world. However, no specific medicine has been approved for NAFLD treatment. Our study was conducted to explore the role and mechanism of TRIM59 in NAFLD, aiming to provide a novel target for NAFLD treatment. Here, the expression of TRIM family members was detected in 10 mild and severe NAFLD tissues as well as 10 normal tissues. TRIM59 expression was verified in 10 normal tissues and 25 mild and severe NAFLD tissues. Palmitic acid and high-fatty diet were used for the construction of NAFLD models. Oil Red O staining was used to detect the level of steatosis. The content of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 was measured to reflect the level of inflammation. Lipid reactive oxygen species was estimated by flow cytometry. We found that TRIM59 was highly expressed in NAFLD tissues compared with normal liver tissues. The inhibition of TRIM59 could inhibit the steatosis and inflammation in NAFLD, whereas its overexpression exhibited reversed effects. The application of ferroptosis inhibitor, deferoxamine, could markedly ameliorate steatosis and inflammation, which was mediated by overexpressed TRIM59. Besides, TRIM59 was demonstrated to interact with GPX4 and promoted its ubiquitination. The overexpression of GPX4 could significantly reverse the pathogenic effects of TRIM59 in NAFLD. Additionally, the inhibition of TRIM59 appeared to be a promising strategy to ameliorate NAFLD in mice model. In summary, our study revealed that TRIM59 could promote steatosis and ferroptosis in NAFLD via enhancing GPX4 ubiquitination. TRIM59 could be a potential target for NAFLD treatment.
