Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease, in which the prognosis is determined by liver fibrosis. A loss-of-function variant in hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 13 (HSD17B13) is associated with decreased liver fibrosis, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that protection against liver fibrosis conferred by the variant in humans and by Hsd17b13 knockdown in mice is associated with decreased pyrimidine catabolism at the level of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase. Two common mouse models of NAFLD are characterized by a marked hepatic pyrimidine depletion. Furthermore, pharmacological inhibition of pyrimidine catabolism by a dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase inhibitor phenocopies the protection against liver fibrosis. Our data suggest pyrimidine catabolism as a therapeutic target in NAFLD. Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease, in which prognosis is determined by liver fibrosis. A common variant in hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 13 (HSD17B13, rs72613567-A) is associated with a reduced risk of fibrosis in NAFLD, but the underlying mechanism(s) remains unclear. We investigated the effects of this variant in the human liver and in Hsd17b13 knockdown in mice by using a state-of-the-art metabolomics approach. We demonstrate that protection against liver fibrosis conferred by the HSD17B13 rs72613567-A variant in humans and by the Hsd17b13 knockdown in mice is associated with decreased pyrimidine catabolism at the level of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase. Furthermore, we show that hepatic pyrimidines are depleted in two distinct mouse models of NAFLD and that inhibition of pyrimidine catabolism by gimeracil phenocopies the HSD17B13-induced protection against liver fibrosis. Our data suggest pyrimidine catabolism as a therapeutic target against the development of liver fibrosis in NAFLD.
