Several studies on hepatocellular carcinoma epidemiology linked this malignancy with obesity and metabolic disorders. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms responsible for this connection. The main purpose of this thesis is to elucidate the role of Jnk1 and Ppara, two important metabolic genes, in hepatocellular carcinoma development. Adipose tissue is the most important organ for lipid storage; during obesity it undergoes to a substantial remodeling. JNK1 is known to control IL-6 production in the adipose tissue during obesity and its depletion in adipocyte protects against liver steatosis, a predisposing factor for HCC development. We demonstrate that adipose tissue JNK1 in normal diet can trigger hepatocellular carcinoma development. In fact, the deletion of JNK1 in adipose tissue increases circulating levels of adiponectin, which in turn activates AMPKα and p38α in hepatocytes, protecting against chemical-induced tumor development. Our results highlight the relevance of adipose tissue in liver cancer development and the central role that JNK1 plays in this crosstalk. PPARα is a nuclear receptor of fatty acids. It is highly expressed in the liver and obesity induces its activation. However, PPARα role in liver carcinogenesis is controversial. Here we show that PPARα activation promotes obesity-associated hepatic cancer. Mice lacking PPARα are protected against chemical-induced hepatocellular carcinoma when fed a high fat diet. Additionally, bone marrow transplantation experiments reveal no significant contribution of inflammatory cells, suggesting a cell-autonomous function of PPARα in hepatocytes. Hepatic PPARα activation, induced by Jnk1 and Jnk2 deletion, is sufficient to cause spontaneous liver cancer, confirming a central role of PPARα activation in liver tumorigenesis. Our results provide a molecular mechanism linking metabolic disorders with liver cancer, emphasizing a central role for PPARα in the connectionThe support received from the following Grants and Fellowships has permitted to develop this PhD work: La Caixa International PhD Fellowship Program, 2010 CallSabio-Buzo, GuadalupeDepartamento de Biología MolecularFacultad de CienciasCentro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC) CSIC.
