Background Altered patterns of bile acids (BAs) are frequently present in liver fibrosis, and BAs function as signaling molecules to initiate inflammatory responses. Therefore, this study was conducted to uncover the notably altered components of BAs and to explore the pathway of altered BA induced inflammation in the development of liver fibrosis. Methods Bile acids were quantified by ultraperformance liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (UPLC‒MS/MS). Cell Counting Kit-8 assays were used to determine the proliferative capacity of HSCs. Transwell assays and wound healing assays were used to determine the migratory capacity of LX2 cells. Protein expression was evaluated by western blotting. Results Plasma bile acid analysis showed higher levels of GCDCA, TCDCA, GCA and TCA in patients with liver fibrosis than in normal controls. The AUC of GCDCA was the highest. Western blotting showed that GCDCA treatment increased the expression of NLRP3-related proteins and collagen1 in vitro and significantly increased LX2 cells proliferation and migration. Furthermore, knockdown of NLRP3 or overexpression of FXR in LX2 cells decreased the expression of the above proteins, and FXR inhibited NLRP3 (ser 295) phosphorylation in vitro and vivo. In vivo, HE, Masson’s trichrome, and Sirius Red staining showed that GCDCA increased collagen fibers in the mouse liver, and the expression of NLRP3-related proteins, collagen 1, and α-SMA in the liver increased significantly. However, the knockout of NLRP3 reversed these patterns. Conclusion (1) Primary conjugated bile acids increased in patients with liver fibrosis; (2) GCDCA induce hepatic fibrosis via the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway; (3) FXR inhibits NLRP3 activity by restraining its phosphorylation; (4) knockdown or knockout of NLRP3 may relieve the onset of hepatic fibrosis. |
