Pathogenesis of cirrhosis, a disabling outcome of defective liver repair, involves deregulated accumulation of myofibroblasts derived from quiescent hepatic stellate cells (HSC), but the mechanisms that control HSC transdifferentiation are poorly understood. We investigated whether the Hedgehog (Hh) pathway controls HSC fate by regulating metabolism. Microarray, quantitative PCR, and immunoblot analyses were used to identify metabolic genes that were differentially expressed in quiescent vs myofibroblast HSC. Glycolysis and lactate production were disrupted in HSC to determine if metabolism influenced transdifferentiation. Hh signaling and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)1α activity were altered to identify factors that alter glycolytic activity. Changes in expression of genes that regulate glycolysis were quantified and localized in biopsy samples from patients with cirrhosis, and liver samples from mice following administration of CCl4 or bile-duct ligation. Mice were given systemic inhibitors of Hh to determine if they affect glycolytic activity of the hepatic stroma; Hh signaling was also conditionally disrupted in myofibroblasts to determine the effects of glycolytic activity. Transdifferentiation of cultured, quiescent HSC into myofibroblasts induced glycolysis and caused lactate accumulation. Increased expression of genes that regulate glycolysis required Hh signaling and involved induction of HIF1α. Inhibitors of Hh signaling, HIF1α, glycolysis, or lactate accumulation converted myofibroblasts to quiescent HSC. In diseased livers of animals and patients, numbers of glycolytic stromal cells were associated with the severity of fibrosis. Conditional disruption of Hh signaling in myofibroblasts reduced numbers of glycolytic myofibroblasts and liver fibrosis in mice; similar effects were observed following administration of pharmacologic inhibitors of Hh. Hedgehog signaling controls HSC fate by regulating metabolism. These findings might be applied to diagnosis and treatment of cirrhosis.
