Liver fibrosis is characterized by the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, which can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatosis liver diseases are common causes of liver fibrosis, sharing a similar pathogenesis with carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄) exposure. This process involves the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) into myofibroblasts. However, the detailed mechanism and effective treatment strategies require further investigation. In this study, we uncovered a negative correlation between VDR expression and YAP within HSCs. Subsequently, we demonstrated that VDR exerted a downregulatory influence on YAP transcriptional activity in HSCs. Intriguingly, activation VDR effectively inhibited the culture induced activation of primary HSCs by suppressing the transcriptional activity of early YAP. Furthermore, in vivo results manifested that hepatic-specific deletion of YAP/TAZ ameliorates CCl-induced liver fibrosis, and nullified the antifibrotic efficacy of VDR. Importantly, a YAP inhibitor rescued the exacerbation of liver fibrosis induced by hepatic-specific VDR knockout. Moreover, the combined pharmacological of VDR agonist and YAP inhibitor demonstrated a synergistic effect in diminishing CCl-induced liver fibrosis, primary HSCs activation and hepatic injury in vivo. These effects were underpinned by their collective ability to inhibit HSC activation through AMPK activation, consequently curbing ATP synthesis and HSCs proliferation. In conclusion, our results not only revealed the inhibition of VDR on YAP-activated liver stellate cells but also identified a synergistic effect of VDR agonist and YAP inhibitor in an AMPKα-dependent manner, providing a practical foundation for integration of multi-targeted drugs in the therapy of CCl-induced hepatic fibrosis.
