Previous studies showed liver dysfunction after severe burn, and that this is associated with activation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Autophagy is a catabolic process to maintain cellular organelle balance; ER stress is associated with autophagy signaling cascades. We thus sought to determine whether autophagy signals were associated with damage in the liver after burn, and further whether burn associated ER stress activates autophagy signals in hepatocytes. C57BL6 male mice received a 25% total body surface area full thickness (TBSA) scald burn, and liver was harvested at 24 hours after burn. HepG2 cells were stimulated with an ER stress inducer thapsigargin (TG) for 24 hours to mimic ER stress in vitro. TUNEL staining was performed on liver histology sections. Autophagy was assessed by immunoblotting. Statistical analysis was by Student’s t-test and significance was accepted at p<0.05. TUNEL positive stained hepatocytes increased in burned animals with a significant elevation of caspase 3 activity (p<0.05). A marked increase in hepatic ATG3, ATG5 and LC3B was detected as well (p<0.05). Expression of Beclin-1, LC3A and LC3B increased in HepG2 cells in response to TG, similar to the response seen in vivo. Cytosolic ATP dropped significantly, and AMPK and mTOR were phosphorylated as well in response to TG (p<0.05). ER stress, which occurs in hepatocytes after severe injury, is associated with autophagy and liver damage following severe burn. In response to ER stress, activated autophagy is associated with AMPK/mTOR pathway.
