The identification of the cellular and molecular pathways that mediate the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis is of crucial importance. Cytokines produced by liver-resident and infiltrating inflammatory cells, play a pivotal role in liver inflammation. The role of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1α and IL-1β in steatohepatitis remains elusive. We employed IL-1α and IL-1β-deficient mice and transplanted marrow cells to study the role of liver-resident and bone marrow-derived IL-1 in steatosis and its progression to steatohepatitis. Atherogenic diet-induced steatohepatitis in wild-type mice was associated with 16 and 4.6 folds-elevations in mRNA levels of hepatic IL-1α and IL-1β, respectively. In mice deficient in either IL-1α or IL-1β the transformation of steatosis to steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis was markedly reduced. This protective effect in IL-1α-deficient mice was noted despite increased liver cholesterol levels. Deficiency of IL-1α markedly reduced plasma serum amyloid A and steady-state levels of mRNA coding for inflammatory genes (P-selectin, CXCL1, IL-6, TNFα) as well as pro-fibrotic genes (MMP-9 and Collagen) and particularly a 50% decrease in TGFβ (p=0.004). IL-1α mRNA levels were 2 folds lower in IL-1β-deficient mice, and IL-1β transcripts were 3 folds lower in IL-1α-deficient compared to wild-type mice. Hepatic cell derived IL-1α rather than from recruited bone marrow-derived cells is required for steatohepatitis development. These data demonstrate the critical role of IL-1α and IL-1β in the transformation of steatosis to steatohepatitis and liver fibrosis in hypercholesterolemic mice. Therefore, the potential of neutralizing IL-1α and/or IL-1β to inhibit development of steatohepatitis should be explored.
