HexA enzyme deficiency in humans leads to GM2 accumulation in cells, particularly in neurons, and is associated with neurodegeneration. While HexA and sphingolipid metabolism have been extensively investigated in the context of neuronal lipid metabolism, little is known about the metabolic impact of HexA and ganglioside degradation in other tissues. Here, we focussed on the role of HexA in the liver, which is a major regulator of systemic lipid metabolism. We find that hepatic Hexa expression is induced by lipid availability and increased in the presence of hepatic steatosis, which is associated with increased hepatic GM3 content. To assess the impact of HEXA on hepatic lipid metabolism, we used an adeno-associated virus to overexpress HEXA in the livers of high-fat diet fed mice. HEXA overexpression was associated with increased hepatic GM3 content and increased expression of enzymes involved in the degradation of glycated sphingolipids, ultimately driving sphingomyelin accumulation in the liver. In addition, HEXA overexpression led to substantial proteome remodeling in cell surface lipid rafts, which was associated with increased VLDL processing and secretion, hypertriglyceridemia and ectopic lipid accumulation in peripheral tissues. This study established an important role of HEXA in modulating hepatic sphingolipid and lipoprotein metabolism."xsd:string |
