Abstract
Patients with intestinal failure who receive long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) often develop intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). Although there are identified risk factors, the early pathogenesis is poorly understood and treatment options are limited. Here, we perform a transcriptomic analysis of liver tissue in a large animal IFALD model to generate mechanistic insights and identify therapeutic targets. Preterm Yorkshire piglets were provided PN or bottle-fed with sow-milk replacer for 14 days. Compared to bottle-fed controls, piglets receiving PN developed biochemical cholestasis by day of life 15 (total bilirubin 0.2 vs. 2.9 mg/dL, P = 0.01). RNA-Seq of liver tissue was performed. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis identified 747 differentially expressed genes (343 upregulated and 404 downregulated) with an adjusted P < 0.05 and a fold-change of > |1|. Enriched canonical pathways were identified, demonstrating broad activation of inflammatory pathways and inhibition of cell cycle progression. Potential therapeutics including infliximab, glucocorticoids, statins, and obeticholic acid were identified as predicted upstream master regulators that may reverse the PN-induced gene dysregulation. The early driver of IFALD in neonates may be inflammation with an immature liver; identified therapeutics that target the inflammatory response in the liver should be investigated as potential treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have recently reported a mouse model of PN-associated cholestasis (PNAC) in which combining intestinal inflammation and PN infusion results in cholestasis, hepatic macrophage activation, and transcriptional suppression of canalicular bile acid, bilirubin and sterol transporters Abcb11, Abcc2 and Abcg5/8. The aim of this study was to examine the role of TNFα in promoting PNAC in mice. METHODS First, recombinant TNFα was administered to mice as well as in hepatocyte cell culture. Second, Tnfr1/2KO or wild-type (WT) mice were exposed to dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 4 days followed by soy-oil lipid emulsion-based PN infusion through a central venous catheter for 14 days (DSS-PN). Finally, WT/DSS-PN mice were also infused with infliximab at 10 mg/kg on days 3 and 10 of PN. PNAC was defined by increased serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total bile acids, and bilirubin. RESULTS Intraperitoneal injection of TNFα into WT mice or TNFα treatment of Huh7 hepatocarcinoma cells and primary mouse hepatocytes suppressed messenger RNA (mRNA) transcription of bile (Abcb11, Abcc2]) and sterol transporters (Abcg5/8) and their regulators Nr1h3 and Nr1h4. DSS-PN mice with PNAC had increased hepatic TNFα mRNA expression and significant reduction of mRNA expression of Abcb11, Abcc2, Abcg5/8, Nr1h3, and Nr1h4. In contrast, PNAC development was prevented and mRNA expression normalized in both Tnfr1/2KO /DSS-PN mice and DSS-PN mice treated with infliximab. CONCLUSIONS TNFα is a key mediator in the pathogenesis of PNAC through suppression of hepatocyte Abcb11, Abcc2, and Abcg5/8. Pharmacologic targeting of TNFα as a therapeutic strategy for PNAC thus deserves further investigation.

Abstract
The potential of antibodies, especially for the bispecific antibodies, are limited by high cost and complex technical process of development and manufacturing. A cost-effective and rapid platform for the endogenous antibodies expression via using the in vitro transcription (IVT) technique to produce nucleoside-modified mRNA and then encapsulated into lipid nanoparticle (LNP) may turn the body to a manufactory. Coinhibitory pathway of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death protein 1 receptor (PD-1) could suppress the T-cell mediated immunity. We hypothesized that the coblocking of PD-L1 and PD-1 via bispecific antibodies may achieve more potential antitumor efficacies compare with the monospecific ones. Here, we described the application of mRNA to encode a bispecific antibody with ablated Fc immune effector functions that targets both human PD-L1 and PD-1, termed XA-1, which was further assessed the in vitro functional activities and in vivo antitumor efficacies. The in vitro mRNA-encoded XA-1 held comparable abilities to fully block the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway as well as to enhance functional T cell activation compared to XA-1 protein from CHO cell source. Pharmacokinetic tests showed enhanced area under curve (AUC) of mRNA-encoded XA-1 compared with XA-1 at same dose. Chronic treatment of LNP-encapsulated XA-1 mRNA in the mouse tumor models which were reconstituted with human immune cells effectively induced promising antitumor efficacies compared to XA-1 protein. Current results collectively demonstrated that LNP-encapsulated mRNA represents the viable delivery platform for treating cancer and hold potential to be applied in the treatment of many diseases.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is a life-saving therapy administered to millions of patients. However, it is associated with significant adverse effects, namely liver injury, risk of infections, and metabolic derangements. In this review, the underlying causes of TPN-associated adverse effects, specifically gut atrophy, dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiome, leakage of the epithelial barrier with bacterial invasion, and inflammation are first described. The role of the bile acid receptors farnesoid X receptor and Takeda G protein-coupled receptor, of pleiotropic hormones, and growth factors is highlighted, and the mechanisms of insulin resistance, namely the lack of insulinotropic and insulinomimetic signaling of gut-originating incretins as well as the potentially toxicity of phytosterols and pro-inflammatory fatty acids mainly released from soybean oil-based lipid emulsions, are discussed. Finally, novel approaches in the design of next generation lipid delivery systems are proposed. Propositions include modifying the physicochemical properties of lipid emulsions, the use of lipid emulsions generated from sustainable oils with favorable ratios of anti-inflammatory n-3 to pro-inflammatory n-6 fatty acids, beneficial adjuncts to TPN, and concomitant pharmacotherapies to mitigate TPN-associated adverse effects.

Abstract
Premature infants and children with intestinal failure (IF) or short bowel syndrome are susceptible to intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD, previously referred to as parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease, or PNALD). IFALD in children is characterized by progressive cholestasis and biliary fibrosis, and steatohepatitis in adults, and is seen in individuals dependent upon prolonged administration of PN. Many factors have been proposed as contributing to the pathogenesis of IFALD. In recent years, the focus has been on the potential synergistic roles of the intestinal microbiome, increased intestinal permeability, activation of hepatic innate immune pathways, and the use of intravenous soybean-oil-based intravenous lipid emulsions (SO-ILE). In vitro and in vivo studies have identified stigmasterol, a component of the plant sterols present in SO-ILE, as playing an important role. Although various strategies have been adopted to prevent or reverse IFALD, most suffer from a lack of strong evidence supported by well-designed, prospective clinical trials with clearly defined endpoints. Reduction in the amount of SO-ILEs or replacement with non-SO-ILEs has been shown to reverse IFALD although safety and long-term effectiveness have not been studied. Medical and surgical modalities to increase intestinal adaptation, advance enteral feedings, and prevent central line bloodstream infections are also important preventative strategies. There is a continued need to conduct high-quality, prospective trials with clearly define outcome measures to ascertain the potential benefits of these strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium Taurocholate Co-transporting Polypeptide (NTCP) and Bile Salt Export Pump (BSEP) play significant roles as membrane transporters because of their presence in the enterohepatic circulation of bile salts. They have emerged as promising drug targets in related liver disease. METHODS We reviewed the literature published over the last 20 years with a focus on NTCP and BSEP. RESULTS This review summarizes the current perception about structure, function, genetic variation, and regulation of NTCP and BSEP, highlights the effects of their defects in some hepatic disorders, and discusses the application prospect of new transcriptional activators in liver diseases. CONCLUSION NTCP and BSEP are important proteins for transportation and homeostasis maintenance of bile acids. Further research is needed to develop new models for determining the structure-function relationship of bile acid transporters and screening for substrates and inhibitors, as well as to gain more information about the regulatory genetic mechanisms involved in the processes of liver injury.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) has revolutionized the care of patients with intestinal failure by providing nutrition intravenously. Worldwide, PN remains a standard tool of nutrition delivery in neonatal, pediatric, and adult patients. Though the benefits are evident, patients receiving PN can suffer serious cholestasis due to lack of enteral feeding and sometimes have fatal complications from liver injury and gut atrophy, including PN-associated liver disease or intestinal failure-associated liver disease. Recent studies into gut-systemic cross talk via the bile acid-regulated farnesoid X receptor (FXR)-fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) axis, gut microbial control of the TGR5-glucagon-like peptide (GLP) axis, sepsis, and role of prematurity of hepatobiliary receptors are greatly broadening our understanding of PN-associated injury. It has also been shown that the composition of ω-6/ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids given parenterally as lipid emulsions can variably drive damage to hepatocytes and cell integrity. This manuscript reviews the mechanisms for the multifactorial pathogenesis of liver disease and gut injury with PN and discusses novel ameliorative strategies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: To evaluate the protective effects of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate on a mouse model of concanavalin A (ConA)-induced immunological liver injury. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight mice were randomly divided into a normal control group, a model group, three dose groups of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate (12.5, 25, 50 mg/kg) and a dexamethasone group (2.5 mg/kg). Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate was intraperitoneally injected for 5 consecutive days, and the model of immunological liver injury was established on the fifth day after caudal vein injection of ConA (20 mg/kg). Blood was collected to detect the activities of alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) as well as the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). The levels of neopterin (NP) and malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activities of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in liver tissues were measured, and histopathological changes were observed. Results: The serum levels of ALT and AST in the model group increased. Hepatic lobules had necrotic foci and inflammatory cell infiltration. The plasma levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ increased. In liver tissues, the levels of NP, MDA and MPO rose, but that of SOD decreased. Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate significantly attenuated the activities of ALT and AST (P<0.05). Histopathological staining showed that inflammation of the liver was relieved significantly. Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate also decreased the levels of NP, MDA and MPO in liver tissues (P<0.05), raised that of SOD and reduced the plasma levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ (P<0.05). Conclusion: Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate protected against ConA-induced immunological liver injury in mice, probably through immune regulation and antioxidation.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease, a common and life-threating complication among people who require long-term parenteral nutrition, has been associated with abnormal liver function, cholestasis, steatosis and fibrosis. Intravenous soybean lipids may be associated with the development of liver disease. We therefore examined whether different doses of parenteral lipids would affect the development of liver disease, and further investigated the possible pathogenesis of it. C57BL/6J mice with a central catheter placed in the right jugular vein were divided into three groups. The control group received normal mouse chow with intravenous normal saline; The lipids group received parenteral nutrition solution (0.14 g lipids per day); the H-lipids group received parenteral nutrition solution with twice the amount of lipids (0.3 g lipids per day). Changes in body weight, serum biochemical parameters, liver histology and farnesoid X receptor gene expression in the liver were assessed. The values of serum direct bilirubin, total bilirubin and cholesterol were markedly increased in the H-lipids group at day 7. The predominant histologic finding in the H-lipids group was steatosis, and the steatosis score in the H-lipids group was much higher than in the other two groups at either day 5 or day 7. Hepatic expression of farnesoid X receptor mRNA decreased after 7 d of parenteral nutrition. High doses of parenteral lipids are more likely to develop liver disease in a mouse model of parenteral nutrition. Farnesoid X receptor may play a key role in the development of parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objectives of this study were to address the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of parenteral nutrition (PN)-associated liver disease (PNALD) and its possible mechanism in vivo. METHODS Five-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats were fed Shoobree chow (Xietong Organism, Jiangsu, China) and administered intravenous 0.9% saline (sham group), PN (PN group), PN plus rapamycin (1 mg/kg; PN + Rapa group), or rapamycin (Rapa group) for 7 days. Before and after study, body weight, biochemical indicators, hepatic histology, level of autophagy, hepatocyte apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress indicators including binding immunoglobulin protein (BIP), spliced X-box-binding protein-1 (sXBP1), and CCAAT-enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP) were measured. RESULTS Autophagy was suppressed in the PNALD model, which was demonstrated by less light chain 3 fluorescence (LC3) puncta and lower LC3II expression. Rapamycin effectively induced hepatic autophagy in PN rats. The PN + Rapa group presented improved hepatic function, decreased pathology scores, and less steatosis than the PN group. In addition, rapamycin treatment decreased terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling and cleaved-caspase 3 expression, indicating a lower level of hepatocyte apoptosis. Compared with the PN group, the PN + Rapa group had lower levels of ROS and reduced expression of ER stress-related protein markers, such as BIP, sXBP1 and CHOP. CONCLUSIONS Autophagy was suppressed in the PNALD model. Rapamycin treatment induced autophagy and protected against PNALD, possibly by suppressing ROS-induced ER stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deficiency of choline, a required nutrient, is related to intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of choline supplementation on IFALD and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats (4 weeks old) were fed AIN-93G chow and administered intravenous 0.9% saline (control), parenteral nutrition (PN), or PN plus intravenous choline (600 mg/kg) for 7 days. We evaluated body weight, hepatic histology, biochemical indicators, triglycerides, oxidative status, methylation levels of peroxisomal proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα) gene promoter, expression of PPARα and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1), and levels of choline metabolites. RESULTS The PN + choline group exhibited improved body weight compared with the PN group. PN impaired hepatic function, increased hepatic triglycerides, induced dyslipidemia, enhanced reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde, and reduced total antioxidant capacity. The PN group had higher pathologic scores than the control group. These results were prevented by choline administration. Compared with the control group, PN increased PPARα promoter methylation and hepatic betaine concentration, reduced hepatic choline and phosphatidylcholine (PC) levels, decreased plasma choline and betaine concentrations, and downregulated PPARα and CPT1 mRNA and protein expression. Choline supplementation elevated hepatic choline and PC levels and enhanced plasma choline, betaine, and PC concentrations but reduced hepatic betaine level, reversed PPARα promoter hypermethylation, and upregulated PPARα and CPT1 mRNA and protein expression in PN-fed rats, compared with rats receiving PN alone. CONCLUSION Choline addition to PN may prevent IFALD by reducing oxidative stress, enhancing hepatic fat export, and promoting fatty acid catabolism in immature rats receiving PN.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition constitutes a life-saving therapeutic tool in patients unable to ingest/absorb oral or enteral delivered nutrients. Liver function tests abnormalities are a common therapy-related complication, thus configuring the so-called Parenteral Nutrition Associated Liver Disease (PNALD) or cholestasis (PNAC). Although the damage is frequently mild, and resolves after discontinuation of parenteral nutrition, in some cases it progresses into cirrhotic changes, especially in neonates and infants. We present a literature review focusing on the pathogenetic mechanisms-driven prevention and therapies for the cases where parenteral nutrition cannot be discontinued. Ursodeoxycholic acid has been proposed in patients with cholestatic hepatopathy, but its efficacy needs to be better established. Little evidence is available on efficacy of anti-oxidants, antibiotics, probiotics and anti TNFα. Lipid emulsions based on fish oil with a high content of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids ω-3 appear effective both in decreasing intrahepatic inflammation and in improving biliary flow. Most recent promising variations such as soybean/MCT/olive/fish oil emulsion [third generation lipid emulsion (SMOFlipid)] are under investigation. In conclusion, we remark the emergence of a number of novel pathomechanisms underlying the severe liver impairment damage (PNALD and PNAC) in patients treated with parenteral nutrition. Only few traditional and innovative therapeutic strategies have hitherto been shown promising.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) has been found to influence duodenal motility in animals. Choline is an essential nutrient, and its deficiency is related to PN-associated organ diseases. Therefore, this study was aimed to investigate the role of choline supplementation in an infant rat model of PN-associated duodenal motility disorder. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three-week-old Sprague-Dawley male rats were fed chow and water (controls), PN solution (PN), or PN plus intravenous choline (600 mg/kg) (PN + choline). Rats underwent jugular vein cannulation for infusion of PN solution or 0.9% saline (controls) for 7 days. Duodenal oxidative stress status, concentrations of plasma choline, phosphocholine, and betaine and serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were assayed. The messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein expression of c-Kit proto-oncogene protein (c-Kit) and membrane-bound stem cell factor (mSCF) together with the electrophysiological features of slow waves in the duodenum were also evaluated. RESULTS Rats on PN showed increased reactive oxygen species; decreased total antioxidant capacity in the duodenum; reduced plasma choline, phosphocholine, and betaine; and enhanced serum TNF-α concentrations, which were reversed by choline intervention. In addition, PN reduced mRNA and protein expression of mSCF and c-Kit, which were inversed under choline administration. Moreover, choline attenuated depolarized resting membrane potential and declined the frequency and amplitude of slow waves in duodenal smooth muscles of infant rats induced by PN, respectively. CONCLUSION The addition of choline to PN may alleviate the progression of duodenal motor disorder through protecting smooth muscle cells from injury, promoting mSCF/c-Kit signaling, and attenuating impairment of interstitial cells of Cajal in the duodenum during PN feeding.

Abstract
Hepatobiliary bile salt (BS) transporters are critical determinants of BS homeostasis controlling intracellular concentrations of BSs and their enterohepatic circulation. Genetic or acquired dysfunction of specific transport systems causes intrahepatic and systemic retention of potentially cytotoxic BSs, which, in high concentrations, may disturb integrity of cell membranes and subcellular organelles resulting in cell death, inflammation and fibrosis. Transcriptional regulation of canalicular BS efflux through bile salt export pump (BSEP), basolateral elimination through organic solute transporters alpha and beta (OSTα/OSTβ) as well as inhibition of hepatocellular BS uptake through basolateral Na(+)-taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) represent critical steps in protection from hepatocellular BS overload and can be targeted therapeutically. In this article, we review the potential clinical implications of the major BS transporters BSEP, OSTα/OSTβ and NTCP in the pathogenesis of hereditary and acquired cholestatic syndromes, provide an overview on transcriptional control of these transporters by the key regulatory nuclear receptors and discuss the potential therapeutic role of novel transcriptional activators of BS transporters in cholestasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Breast milk has been shown to be associated with greater success with regard to weaning children with intestinal failure off parenteral nutrition (PN). There are only a few studies investigating the role of breast milk in decreasing PN-associated liver disease (PNALD). The aim of our study was to determine whether breast milk is better than formula milk in preventing PNALD in infants receiving PN for >4 weeks. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of newborns requiring prolonged parenteral nutrition. We divided the sample into 3 different groups (exclusive breast-feeding, exclusive formula-feeding, and mixed feeding. We compared baseline characteristics, feeding profiles and liver function tests, and liver enzymes among the 3 groups. RESULTS Among infants receiving PN for >4 weeks, we found that infants who were fed only breast milk were significantly less likely to develop PNALD (34.6%) compared with those who were fed only formula milk (72.7%; P = 0.008). The mean maximum conjugated bilirubin (P = 0.03) and the mean maximum aspartate aminotransferase were significantly lower in the breast-fed group (P = 0.04) compared with the formula-fed group. Among the mixed-feeding group, infants who received a higher percentage of breast milk showed a significant negative correlation with the mean maximum conjugated bilirubin. (Pearson correlation -0.517, P = 0.027). The mean number of days receiving PN and the average daily lipid intake in the 2 groups was not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS As a modality for early enteral nutrition, breast milk is protective against the development of PNALD in infants receiving PN for >4 weeks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) has a high risk of hepatic dysfunction and intestinal atrophy. The present study investigated the effect of PN-induced intestinal atrophy and hepatic impairment on drug pharmacokinetics by using 2 contrasting compounds: phenolsulfonphthalein (PSP) and cyclosporin A (CyA). MATERIALS AND METHODS PSP or CyA was administered to 7-day PN-fed Rats (PN rats) and sham operated rats (control rats) via intravenous (IV) or intraloop administration of the intestine. Pharmacokinetic parameters with 2-compartment analysis including area under the concentration vs time curve (AUC) and the permeability after in situ intraloop administration (P loop) were obtained from both concentration profiles after different administration routes. RESULTS After IV administration of PSP to control and PN rats, there was no notable difference in any of the pharmacokinetic parameters. In contrast, after intraloop administration, AUC and P loop in PN rats were approximately 2.6- and 2.0-fold higher than that in control rats, respectively. On the other hand, after IV administration of CyA, the terminal half-life and total body clearance were prolonged and decreased in PN rats, respectively, resulting in 2.0-fold increase in AUC. After intraloop administration, the AUC of PN rats was increased to approximately 1.3-fold that of control rats, whereas no notable difference was observed in P loop. CONCLUSION The intestinal permeability of PSP was enhanced by intestinal atrophy induced by PN, while the metabolism of CyA was diminished by hepatic impairment by PN. These results revealed the physicochemical property-based pharmacokinetic alterations during PN; for a more detailed understanding, however, further studies are needed.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) is a complex disease that is diagnosed by clinical presentation, biochemical markers of liver injury, concurrent use of parenteral nutrition (PN), and negative workup for other causes of liver disease. Since the first case of PNALD was reported more than 30 years ago, clinicians have had few effective treatments for PNALD, and when disease progressed to liver cirrhosis, it was historically associated with poor outcomes. Within the past 5 years, there has been much excitement about new treatments for PNALD, including use of both parenteral and enteral ω-3 polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acids (ω-3 PUFA) as well as restricting dosing of ω-6 PUFA. Scientists are also interested in uncovering the mechanisms associated with liver injury seen in PNALD. This article reviews the recent literature relating to the pathophysiology and treatment of PNALD.
