摘要: Metabolic (dysfunction) -associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is the advanced stage of metabolic (dysfunction) -associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) lacking approved clinical drugs. Adenosine A1 receptor (A 1 R), belonging to the G -protein -coupled receptors (GPCRs) superfamily, is mainly distributed in the central nervous system and major peripheral organs with wide-ranging physiological functions; however, the exact role of hepatic A 1 R in MAFLD remains unclear. Here, we report that liver -specific depletion of A 1 R aggravates while overexpression attenuates diet -induced metabolic -associated fatty liver (MAFL)/ MASH in mice. Mechanistically, activation of hepatic A 1 R promotes the competitive binding of sterol -regulatory element binding protein (SREBP) cleavage -activating protein (SCAP) to sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1), rather than protein kinase A (PKA) leading to SCAP degradation in lysosomes. Reduced SCAP hinders SREBP1c/2 maturation and thus suppresses de novo lipogenesis and inflammation. Higher hepatic A 1 R expression is observed in patients with MAFL/MASH and high -fat diet (HFD)-fed mice, which is supposed to be a physiologically adaptive response because A 1 R agonists attenuate MAFL/MASH in an A 1 R-dependent manner. These results highlight that hepatic A 1 R is a potential target for MAFL/ MASH therapy.
