Hepatocyte nuclear factor alpha (HNF1α), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and hepatocyte apoptosis contribute to severe acute exacerbation (SAE) of liver injury. Here, we explore HNF1α-ER stress-hepatocyte apoptosis interaction in liver injury. LO2, HepG2 and SK-Hep1 cells were treated with thapsigargin (TG) or tunicamycin (TM) to induce ER stress. Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) was used to induce acute liver injury in mice. Low-dose lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exacerbated liver injury in CCl4-induced mice. Significant apoptosis, HNF1α upregulation, and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activation were observed in human-derived hepatocytes during ER stress. Knockdown of Rela, NF-κB p65, inhibited the HNF1α upregulation. Following CCl4 treatment ER stress, apoptosis, HNF1α expression and RelA phosphorylation were significantly increased in mice. HNF1α knockdown reduced activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) expression, and aggravated ER stress as well as hepatocyte apoptosis in vivo and in vitro. The double fluorescent reporter gene assay confirmed that HNF1α regulated the transcription of ATF4 promoter. LPS aggravated CCl4-induced liver injury and reduced HNF1α, and ATF4 expression. Therefore, in combination, HNF1α and ER stress could be mutually regulated forming a feedback loop, which helps in protecting the injured liver by down-regulating hepatocyte apoptosis. Low-dose LPS aggravates hepatocyte apoptosis and promotes the SAE of liver injury by interfering with the feedback regulation of HNF1α and ER stress in acute liver injury.
