The liver changes with age leading to an impaired ability to respond to hepatic insults and increased incidence of liver disease in the elderly. Therefore, there is critical need for rapid model systems to study aging-related liver changes. One potential opportunity is murine models of human progerias, or diseases of accelerated aging. Ercc1−/Δ mice model a rare human progeroid syndrome caused by inherited defects in DNA repair. To determine if hepatic changes that occur with normal aging occur prematurely in Ercc1−/Δ mice, we systematically compared liver from 5 month-old, progeroid Ercc1−/Δ mice to old (24–36 month) wild-type (WT) mice. Both displayed areas of necrosis, foci of hepatocellular degeneration and acute inflammation. Loss of hepatic architecture, fibrosis, steatosis, pseudocapillarization, and anisokaryosis were more dramatic in Ercc1−/Δ mice than in old WT mice. Liver enzymes were significantly elevated in serum of Ercc1−/Δ mice and old WT mice, while albumin was reduced, demonstrating liver damage and dysfunction. The regenerative capacity of Ercc1−/Δ liver following partial hepatectomy was significantly reduced. There was evidence of increased oxidative damage in Ercc1−/Δ and old WT liver, including lipofuscin, lipid hydroperoxides and acrolein as well as increased hepatocellular senescence. There was a highly significant correlation in genome-wide transcriptional changes between old WT and 16 but not 5 week-old Ercc1−/Δ mice emphasizing that the Ercc1−/Δ mice acquire an aging profile in early adulthood. There are strong functional, regulatory and histopathological parallels between accelerated aging driven by a DNA repair defect and normal aging. This supports a role for DNA damage in driving aging and validates a murine model for rapidly testing hypotheses about causes and treatment for aging-related hepatic changes.
