Copper-transporting ATPase 2 (ATP7B) is essential for mammalian copper
homeostasis. Mutations in ATP7B result in copper accumulation, especially in the
liver, and cause Wilson disease (WD). The major role of hepatocytes in WD
pathology is firmly established. It is less certain whether the excess Cu in
hepatocytes is solely responsible for development of WD. To address this issue,
we generated a mouse strain for Cre-mediated deletion of Atp7b and inactivated
Atp7b selectively in hepatocytes. Atp7b(?Hep) mice accumulate copper in the
liver, have elevated urinary copper, and lack holoceruloplasmin but show no liver
disease for up to 30 wk. Liver inflammation is muted and markedly delayed
compared with the age-matched Atp7b(-/-) null mice, which show a strong type1
inflammatory response. Expression of metallothioneins is higher in Atp7b(?Hep)
livers than in Atp7b(-/-) mice, suggesting better sequestration of excess copper.
Characterization of purified cell populations also revealed that nonparenchymal
cells in Atp7b(?Hep) liver maintain Atp7b expression, have normal copper balance,
and remain largely quiescent. The lack of inflammation unmasked metabolic
consequences of copper misbalance in hepatocytes. Atp7b(?Hep) animals weigh more
than controls and have higher levels of liver triglycerides and
3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase. By 45 wk, all animals
develop liver steatosis on a regular diet. Thus copper misbalance in hepatocytes
dysregulates lipid metabolism, whereas development of inflammatory response in WD
may depend on copper status of nonparenchymal cells. The implications of these
findings for the cell-targeting WD therapies are discussed.NEW & NOTEWORTHY
Targeted inactivation of copper-transporting ATPase 2 (Atp7b) in hepatocytes
causes steatosis in the absence of inflammation.
