Summary Aim To study the effects of exercise on lysosomal functions. Methods Mouse exercise model was established and wheel running was scheduled as 18 rpm (14:00-17:00), 5 d/wk, for 8 weeks. Mice were injected EX527 to inhibit SIRT1 activity. The protein level was assayed with Western blot and immunofluorescence histochemistry. The transmission electron microscopic examination was used to show the structure of lysosome and mitochondria. Results Exercise promoted the nuclear translocation of TFEB in the cortex which upregulated the transcription of genes associated with autophagy and lysosome. Exercise directly activated autophagy/lysosome system via up-regulating of AMPK-SIRT1 signaling. The SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 decreased TFEB regulated gene transcription but had little effect on the nuclear translocation of TFEB. In addition, long-term exercise showed more significant effects on activation of lysosomes biogenesis compared with the short-term exercise and trehalose, a classical autophagy activator in the mTOR-independent pathway. Conclusion Running exercise activates lysosomal function in the brain through AMPK-SIRT1-TFEB pathway.

SIRT1 functions by regulating the modification of proteins or interacting with other proteins to form complexes. It has been widely studied and found to play significant roles in various biological processes and diseases. However, systematic studies on activated-SIRT1 interactions remain limited. Here, we present a comprehensive SIRT1 interactome under resveratrol stimulation through proximity labeling methods. Our results demonstrated that RanGap1 interacted with SIRT1 in HEK 293T cells and MCF-7 cells. SIRT1 regulated the protein level of RanGap1 and had no obvious effect on RanGap1 transcription. Moreover, the overexpression of Rangap1 increased the ROS level in MCF-7 cells, which sensitized cells to resveratrol and reduced the cell viability. These findings provide evidence that RanGap1 interacts with SIRT1 and influences intracellular ROS, critical signals for mitochondrial functions, cell proliferation and transcription. Additionally, we identified that the SIRT1-RanGap1 interaction affects downstream signals induced by ROS. Overall, our study provides an essential resource for future studies on the interactions of resveratrol-activated SIRT1. There are conflicts about the relationship between resveratrol and ROS in previous reports. However, our data identified the impact of the resveratrol-SIRT1-RanGap1 axis on intracellular ROS.Keywords:SIRT1;resveratrol;proximity labeling;RanGap1;ROS

Ten-eleven translocation methylcytosine dioxygenase 1 (TET1) is involved in multiple biological functions in cell development, differentiation, and transcriptional regulation. Tet1 deficient mice display the defects of murine glucose metabolism. However, the role of TET1 in metabolic homeostasis keeps unknown. Here, our finding demonstrates that hepatic TET1 physically interacts with silent information regulator T1 (SIRT1) via its C-terminal and activates its deacetylase activity, further regulating the acetylation-dependent cellular translocalization of transcriptional factors PGC-1α and FOXO1, resulting in the activation of hepatic gluconeogenic gene expression that includes PPARGC1A, G6PC, and SLC2A4. Importantly, the hepatic gluconeogenic gene activation program induced by fasting is inhibited in Tet1 heterozygous mice livers. The adenosine 5’-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activators metformin or AICAR—two compounds that mimic fasting—elevate hepatic gluconeogenic gene expression dependent on in turn activation of the AMPK-TET1-SIRT1 axis. Collectively, our study identifies TET1 as a SIRT1 coactivator and demonstrates that the AMPK-TET1-SIRT1 axis represents a potential mechanism or therapeutic target for glucose metabolism or metabolic diseases.

Background Cholesteatoma is a benign epithelial lesion that affects the middle ear or mastoid process, causing otorrhea and hearing impairment. Currently, the pathogenesis of temporal bone injury in middle ear cholesteatoma remains elusive, hindering the development of effective treatment strategies. Methods and Results We examined the expression of transcription factor AP-2-beta (TFAP2B) and its downstream factor silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) in clinical samples from patients with middle ear cholesteatoma and analyzed the potential correlation between TFAP2B expression and clinical conditions. The findings revealed a significant down-regulation of TFAP2B and SIRT1 in patients diagnosed with middle ear cholesteatoma ( p < 0.01), and TFAP2B expression was negatively correlated with the clinical manifestations of hearing impairment and bone destruction. We further explored the role of TFAP2B in the differentiation of RAW 264.7 cells into osteoclasts induced by receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) in vitro . TFAP2B overexpression significantly inhibited, while TFAP2B knockdown promoted osteoclast differentiation of RAW264.7 cells. Further investigation suggested that TFAP2B positively regulated SIRT1 ( p <0.01) and negatively regulated NF-κB activation. Finally, we demonstrated that TFAP2B transcriptionally regulated SIRT, which inhibited the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway by reducing the acetylation level of the p65 subunit, thereby suppressing osteoclast differentiation. Conclusions TFAP2B/SIRT1 plays a crucial role in regulating osteoclast differentiation in middle ear cholesteatoma. The downregulation of TFAP2B/SIRT1 triggers enhanced osteoclast differentiation, which may contribute to one of the mechanisms underlying bone destruction in middle ear cholesteatoma.

Cervical cancer (CC) is a major health threat to women, with immunotherapies targeting the programmed death receptor 1/programmed death ligand 1(PD-1/PD-L1) axis showing promise but encountering resistance in a significant patient population. This resistance has driven a critical quest to uncover the underlying mechanisms. This study uncovers a novel metabolic axis involving the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + ) salvage pathway enzyme nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) and the deacetylase Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), which regulates PD-L1 expression and nuclear localization in CC. This axis may be a key factor contributing to the resistance observed in immunotherapy. This study reveals that PD-L1 overexpression in cancers is regulated by both transcriptional and post-transcriptional processes. Acetyl-proteomic analysis pinpoints SIRT1 as a central regulator in the deacetylation of histone H3 at lysines 27, which may influence PD-L1 subcellular distribution. This finding reveals the epigenetic control of immune checkpoint proteins by metabolic pathways, offering a new perspective on the regulation of PD-L1. The identification of the NAMPT/SIRT1 metabolic axis as a critical factor suggests that targeting this axis may enhance therapeutic responses.

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an evolutionarily conserved cellular stress response related to multiple diseases, including temporomandibular joint (TMJ) cartilage-related diseases. Recent studies have indicated that DDIT3/CHOP (a downstream transcription factor of ER stress) is an important effector in mediating ER stress to inhibit chondrogenesis . However, the underlying mechanism by which DDIT3 regulates chondrogenesis remains unclear. In this study, tunicamycin (an ER stress agonist)-induced ER stress inhibited chondrocyte differentiation and matrix synthesis in vitro and led to an osteoarthritis-like phenotype in mouse TMJ cartilage. Meanwhile, DDIT3 expression in chondrocytes was robustly upregulated. Loss-of-function experiments validated the inhibiting effect of DDIT3 on chondrocyte differentiation and matrix synthesis. Mechanistically, the inhibiting effect was attributed to the direct and indirect regulatory effect of DDIT3 on SIRT1 (sirtuin1, silent mating type information regulation protein type 1, a member of NAD+ dependent class III histone deacetylases). On one hand, DDIT3 directly promoted the transcription of SIRT1. On the other hand, DDIT3 indirectly increased the expression of SIRT1 by promoting AMPKα phosphorylation and activation. Furthermore, activation of AMPKα or SIRT1 with the corresponding agonist AICAR or resveratrol in the DDIT3-knockdown cells partially restored the inhibiting effect of DDIT3 on chondrocyte differentiation and matrix synthesis. Collectively, these novel findings indicate that DDIT3 regulates the inhibitory effect of ER stress on chondrocyte differentiation and matrix synthesis partially via the AMPKα-SIRT1 pathway. A thorough understanding of ER stress in regulating chondrocyte homeostasis and its role in the onset of osteoarthritis may be promising to develop therapeutic targets and prevent condyle cartilage destruction.

The mechanosensitive Piezo1 channel protein plays a pivotal role in promoting bone formation and repair; however, its underlying molecular mechanism(s) are poorly defined. Here this study shows that Sirt1 positively regulates Piezo1 expression and activity to promote osteogenesis and bone repair in mice. This study finds that Piezo1 is up-regulated in the cartilage callus during bone repair. Deleting Piezo1 in chondrocytes largely impairs endochondral ossification and mechanically induced osteogenesis and delays fracture healing in mice, while Yoda1 activation of Piezo1 exerts opposite effects. Sirt1 overexpression or activation dramatically increases Piezo1 protein expression in a dose-dependent manner. Sirt1 binds to Piezo1 protein and deacetylates and activates Piezo1 and Ca 2+ influx in chondrocytes. Piezo1 loss in chondrocytes abolishes the ability of Sirt1 activator SRT2104 to accelerate bone repair. Resveratrol (RSV), a natural Sirt1 activator, also potently activates Piezo1 and enhances bone repair. A yeast microcapsule-based oral formulation of RSV (YC-RSV) is developed to improve drug bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy, which highly and selectively targets to the inflammatory fracture site. Thus, it demonstrates that Sirt1 is a novel and potent activator of Piezo1 to promote bone formation and repair, supporting the potential clinical application of Sirt1 activators in promoting bone formation and repair.

Background Hypertension influences the inflammatory pathological changes in the retina. The function of the inflammasomes is significant. To see if Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) regulates angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertensive retinopathy and inflammation by modulating NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation and the potential protective effects of fucoidan (FO) in mouse retinal vascular endothelial cells (mRECs) and mice retina. Methods The diagnosis of hypertensive retinopathy was made after three weeks of Ang II infusion (3000 ng/kg/min). One day prior to the commencement of Ang II infusion, the mice were treatment with NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 (10 mg/kg/day, intraperitoneal injections) or FO (300 mg/kg/day, oral gavage). A blood pressure was recorded. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was used to conduct pathological alterations, dihydroethidium bromide (DHE) was utilized to assess oxidative stress damage in the retina, and fluorescence angiography was used to identify vascular disorders in the eye. Using immunohistochemical labeling, NLRP3 expression was found. Reactive protein and mRNA expression levels in mouse retina and cells were assessed using Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Results NLRP3 inflammasome activation and SIRT1 decrease were brought about by Ang II infusion. Retinopathy and dysfunction were lessened by MCC950 target-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation, while overexpression of SIRT1 had the opposite impact on NLRP3 inflammasome activation, indicating that SIRT1 functions as an upstream regulator of NLRP3 activity. FO may improve SIRT1 expression and decrease NLRP3 activation in retinopathy and dysfunction brought on by Ang II, and the effects were consistent across both in vivo and in vitro models. Conclusions SIRT1 adversely regulates the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, which in turn increases Ang II-induced inflammation and hypertensive retinopathy. FO may mitigate Ang II-induced retinopathy and dysfunction via modulating the expression of SIRT1/NLRP3. This implies practical approaches to the management of hypertensive retinopathy.

Cadmium (Cd), as an environmental pollutant, can lead to nephrotoxicity. However, its nephrotoxicological mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. In this study, Cd (1.5 mg/kg body weight, gavaged for 4 weeks) was found to induce the renal damage in mice, based on indicators including Cd concentration, kidney index, serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels, pro-inflammatory cytokines and their mRNA expressions, levels of Bcl-2, Bax and caspase9, and histopathological changes of the kidneys. Furthermore, Cd-caused detrimental changes through inducing inflammation and apoptosis via the miR-34a/Sirt1/p53 axis. This is the first report on the role of miR-34a/Sirt1/p53 axis in regulating Cd-caused apoptosis and nephrotoxicity in mice. The findings obtained in this study provide new insights into miRNA-based regulation of heavy metal induced-nephrotoxicity.

This study explores the neuroprotective effects of resveratrol (Resv) against tri-o-cresyl phosphate (TOCP)-induced neurotoxicity in the spinal cord of adult hens. It is well documented that TOCP exposure causes significant neurodegeneration via mechanisms that involve endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and impaired autophagy. In this experiment, adult hens were assigned to one of four groups: Control, Resv, TOCP, and TOCP + Resv. The spinal cord tissues were examined through transmission electron microscopy, hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, Nissl staining, and Western blotting to evaluate key proteins associated with ER stress and autophagy. Additionally, RT-qPCR and immunofluorescence were employed to measure sirtuin1 (SIRT1) expression. The findings revealed that TOCP induced severe ultrastructural damage, including disrupted myelin sheaths, dilated ER, and extensive neurodegeneration, as confirmed by histological evaluations. The expression levels of GRP78, p-PERK, p-eIF2α, ATF4, CHOP, Beclin-1, P62, and LC3-II were also significantly elevated by TOCP. However, Resv treatment markedly attenuated these pathological changes by reducing ER stress, restoring autophagic flux, and upregulating SIRT1 expression, preserving spinal cord integrity. These results indicate that Resv can effectively counteract TOCP-induced neurotoxicity by modulating ER stress and autophagy, underscoring its potential as a therapeutic agent for neuroprotection.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that affects approximately 2% of worldwide population, and causing long-term troubles to the patients. Therefore, it is urgent to develop safe and effective therapeutic drugs. Catalpol is a natural iridoid glucoside, that has several remarkable pharmacological effects, however, whether catalpol can alleviated psoriasis has not been explored. The goal of the present work is to study the role of catalpol in psoriasis in vivo and in vitro. Imiquimod-induced psoriasis-like mice were applied with different concentrations of catalpol for 8 consecutive days. The severity degree of psoriasis was estimated and the skin pathological changes were detected by H&E staining. Also, TNF-α-stimulated keratinocytes were treated with different concentrations of catalpol, then the oxidative stress and inflammation factors, as well as the expression of SIRT1 and activation of NF-kB and MAPK pathways were measured. The results showed that catalpol reduced the erythema, scaling, ear thickness, and changed pathological phenotypes in the lesioned skin region in mice. Treatment with catalpol significantly suppressed the oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions in vivo and in vitro, as reflected by the decreased secretion or expression of oxidative stress indicators and proinflammatory factors. Furthermore, the SIRT1 was up-regulated and the NF-κB and MAPKs signaling pathways were suppressed by the treatment of catalpol in vivo and in vitro. In summary, our data suggested that catalpol may have a therapeutic property of psoriasis by ameliorating oxidative stress and inflammation partly through SIRT1 mediated suppression of NF-κB and MAPKs pathways.Abbreviation: CAT: catalase; ELISA: enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; GSH: glutathione; HRP: horseradish peroxidase; IMQ: imiquimod; JNK: c-Jun NH 2-terminal kinases; MAPKs: mitogen-activated protein kinases; MDA: malondialdehyde; NC: negative control group; NF-kB: nuclear factor kappa B; PASI: psoriasis area and severity index; PVDF: polyvinylidene difluoride membranes; qRT-PCR: quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction; ROS: reactive oxygen species; SDS-PAGE: sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel; SIRT1: silent information regulator 1; SOD: Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase

Background The complex interplay between Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and FOXO3 in endometrial cancer (EC) remains understudied. This research aims to unravel the interactions of deacetylase SIRT1 and transcription factor FOXO3 in EC, focusing on their impact on mitophagy and hormone resistance.Methods High-throughput sequencing, cell experiments, and bioinformatics tools were employed to investigate the roles and interactions of SIRT1 and FOXO3 in EC. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay was used to assess the interaction between SIRT1 and FOXO3 in RL95-2 cells. Functional assays were used to assess cell viability, proliferation, migration, invasion, apoptosis, and the expression of related genes and proteins. A mouse model of EC was established to evaluate tumor growth and hormone resistance under different interventions. Immunohistochemistry and TUNEL assays were used to assess protein expression and apoptosis in tumor tissues.Results High-throughput transcriptome sequencing revealed a close association between SIRT1, FOXO3, and EC development. Co-IP showed a protein–protein interaction between SIRT1 and FOXO3. Overexpression of SIRT1 enhanced FOXO3 deacetylation and activity, promoting BNIP3 transcription and PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy, which in turn promoted cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and inhibited apoptosis in vitro, as well as increased tumor growth and hormone resistance in vivo. These findings highlighted SIRT1 as an upstream regulator and potential therapeutic target in EC.Conclusion This study reveals a novel molecular mechanism underlying the functional relevance of SIRT1 in regulating mitophagy and hormone resistance through the deacetylation of FOXO3 in EC, thereby providing valuable insights for new therapeutic strategies.
