Regulation of hepatic lipogenesis by the zinc finger protein Zbtb20

Abstract: Hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) converts carbohydrates into triglycerides and is known to influence systemic lipid homoeostasis. Here, we demonstrate that the zinc finger protein Zbtb20 is required for DNL. Mice lacking Zbtb20 in the liver exhibit hypolipidemia and reduced levels of liver triglycerides, along with impaired hepatic lipogenesis. The expression of genes involved in glycolysis and DNL, including that of two ChREBP isoforms, is decreased in livers of knockout mice. Zbtb20 binds to and enhances th… Show more

“…However, the altered mRNA levels of these genes following HFD feeding were restored by LNS1 administration to HFD mice. In contrast, although HFD feeding enhanced the mRNA levels of Zbtb20, which regulates hepatic lipogenesis in part by regulating Chrebp expression (Liu et al 2017), LNS1 administration did not significantly affect hepatic expression of Zbtb20 in HFD mice. Next, we determined the effect of LNS1-CS on the expression of these SREBP genes in HepG2 cells in association with AMPK activity by using CpC.…”

“…Thus, ZBTB20 might be a functional target of miR-758-5p in GBM. ZBTB20, as a zinc finger protein, has been implicated in glucose and lipid homoeostasis [30,31] and in the tumor progression of hepatocellular carcinoma [32], indicating a role in cancer. In our study, ZBTB20 was overexpressed in GBM, and ZBTB20 knockdown suppressed GBM progression.…”

“…The functional role of ZNF577 is unknown; however, some members of the zinc finger proteins (ZNFs) family, which regulate gene transcription, have been found to be often hypermethylated and silenced in different types of tumors, suggesting that it may represent a commonly disrupted epigenetic pathway in cancer progression (13). In a metabolic and nutritional context, family members of the ZNFs have been associated with adipogenesis (14)(15)(16), type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance (17,18), the regulation of hepatic lipogenesis (19,20), and in the control of muscle function (21). Moreover, the expression of some ZNFs is regulated by nutritional status such as fasting (22) or under a high-fat diet (23,24).…”
