Progressive liver fibrosis is a dynamic process characterized by the net accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), which could eventually develop into cirrhosis, leading to malignant transformation. In this study, insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 2 (Igf2bp2) was found to be up-regulated in carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver fibrosis and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β)-activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). Igf2bp2 knockdown in the CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis mice model significantly improved CCl4-induced liver damage by decreasing necrosis and fibrotic septa, reducing hydroxyproline levels, and down-regulating fibrotic markers levels. In TGF-β-activated HSCs, Igf2bp2 knockdown partially attenuated TGF-β-induced cellular effects by suppressing HSCs viability and DNA synthesis and reducing the ECM-associated factors such as α-SMA, COLLAGEN I, and COLLAGEN III. Integrative network and signaling analysis revealed that the Igf2bp2 could bind to Tgfbr1. Transforming growth factor-beta receptor 1 (Tgfbr1) was found to be significantly up-regulated in the fibrotic liver and activated HSCs, and positively correlated with Igf2bp2. Tgfbr1 knockdown partially eliminated TGF-β-induced fibrotic changes and Igf2bp2 overexpression effects on TGF-β-activated HSCs in vitro. Moreover, Igf2bp2 overexpression promoted the phosphorylation of SMAD2/SMAD3, AKT, and PI3K, whereas Tgfbr1 knockdown exhibited the opposite effect; Tgfbr1 knockdown also partially attenuated the effects of Igf2bp2 overexpression on the phosphorylation of SMAD2/SMAD3, AKT, and PI3K. In closing, Igf2bp2 and Tgfbr1 are up-regulated in CCl4-induced liver fibrosis and TGF-β-activated mHSCs. Igf2bp2 knockdown improved CCl4-induced liver fibrosis and TGF-β-activated HSCs by targeting Tgfbr1, possibly through the PI3K/Akt pathway.
