Resumen: © 2020 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. An imbalance between hepatic fatty acid uptake and removal results in ectopic fat accumulation, which leads to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The amount and type of accumulated triglycerides seem to play roles in NAFLD progression; however, a complete understanding of how triglycerides contribute to NAFLD evolution is lacking. Our aim was to evaluate triglyceride accumulation in NAFLD in a murine model and its associations with molecular mechanisms involved in liver damage and adipose tissue-liver cross talk by employing lipidomic and molecular imaging techniques. C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 12 weeks were used as a NAFLD model. Standard-diet (STD)-fed animals were used as controls. Standard liver pathology was assessed using conventional techniques. The liver lipidome was analyzed by liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) and laser desorption/ionization–mass spectrometry (LDI–MS) tissue imaging. Liver triglycerides were identified by MS/MS. The transcriptome of genes involved in intracellular lipid metabolism and inflammation was assessed by RT-PCR. Plasma leptin, resistin, adiponectin, and FABP4 levels were determined using commercial kits. HFD-fed mice displayed increased liver lipid content. LC–MS analyses identified 14 triglyceride types that were upregulated in livers from HFD-fed animals. Among these 14 types, 10 were identified in liver cross sections by LDI–MS tissue imaging. The accumulation of these triglycerides was associated with the upregulation of lipogenesis and inflammatory genes and the downregulation of β-oxidation genes. Interestingly, the levels of plasma FABP4, but not of other adipokines, were positively associated with 8 of these triglycerides in HFD-fed mice but not in STD-fed mice. Our findings suggest a putative role of FABP4 in the liver-adipose tissue cross talk in NAFLD.
