Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Exacerbates NASH Progression via Selective Autophagy‐Mediated Eepd1 Degradation
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), characterized by chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), is an independent risk factor for aggravating non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The prevailing mouse model employed in CIH research is inadequate for the comprehensive exploration of the impact of CIH on NASH development due to reduced food intake observed in CIH‐exposed mice, which deviates from human responses. To address this issue, a pair‐feeding investigation with CIH‐exposed and normoxia‐exposed mice is conducted. It is revealed that CIH exposure aggravates DNA damage, leading to hepatic fibrosis and inflammation. The analysis of genome‐wide association study (GWAS) data also discloses the association between Eepd1, a DNA repair enzyme, and OSAS. Furthermore, it is revealed that CIH triggered selective autophagy, leading to the autophagic degradation of Eepd1, thereby exacerbating DNA damage in hepatocytes. Notably, Eepd1 liver‐specific knockout mice exhibit aggravated hepatic DNA damage and further progression of NASH. To identify a therapeutic approach for CIH‐induced NASH, a drug screening is conducted and it is found that Retigabine dihydrochloride suppresses CIH‐mediated Eepd1 degradation, leading to alleviated DNA damage in hepatocytes. These findings imply that targeting CIH‐mediated Eepd1 degradation can be an adjunctive approach in the treatment of NASH exacerbated by OSAS.
