Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection continues to be a prominent cause of liver fibrosis and end-stage liver disease in China, necessitating the development of effective therapeutic strategies. This study investigated the potential of targeting TGR5 to alleviate liver fibrosis by impeding the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs), which play a pivotal role in fibrotic progression. Using the human hepatic stellate cell line LX-2 overexpressing hepatitis B virus X protein (HBX), this study revealed that TGR5 activation through INT-777 inhibits HBX-induced LX-2 cell activation, thereby ameliorating liver fibrosis, which is associated with the attenuation of mitochondrial fission and introduces a novel regulatory pathway in liver fibrosis. Additional experiments with mitochondrial fission inducers and inhibitors confirm the crucial role of mitochondrial dynamics in TGR5-mediated effects. In vivo studies using TGR5 knockout mice substantiate these findings, demonstrating exacerbated fibrosis in the absence of TGR5 and its alleviation with the mitochondrial fission inhibitor Mdivi-1. Overall, this study provides insights into TGR5-mediated regulation of liver fibrosis through the modulation of mitochondrial fission in HSCs, suggesting potential therapeutic strategies for liver fibrosis intervention.
