Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are a nicotinic adenine dinucleotide (+) -dependent histone deacetylase that regulates critical signaling pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Studies have identified seven mammalian homologs of the yeast SIRT silencing message regulator 2, namely, SIRT1-SIRT7. Recent in vivo and in vitro studies have successfully demonstrated the involvement of SIRTs in key pathways for cell biological function in physiological and pathological processes of the cardiovascular system, including processes including cellular senescence, oxidative stress, apoptosis, DNA damage, and cellular metabolism. Emerging evidence has stimulated a significant evolution in preventing and treating cardiovascular disease (CVD). Here, we review the important roles of SIRTs for the regulatory pathways involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and their molecular targets, including novel protein post-translational modifications of succinylation. In addition, we summarize the agonists and inhibitors currently identified to target novel specific small molecules of SIRTs. A better understanding of the role of SIRTs in the biology of CVD opens new avenues for therapeutic intervention with great potential for preventing and treating CVD.

Chem Biol Interact 2023; 377:110469. [PMID: 37030624 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2023.110469] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2022] [Revised: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 04/10/2023]
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX), a broad-spectrum chemotherapeutic agent for various cancers, has limited clinical application because of its serious cardiotoxicity, which is due to different mechanisms, including cardiac ferroptosis and oxidative stress. Some drugs, such as berberine or dioscin, show efficacy in impeding DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by activating Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1). However, there is no direct evidence to clarify the role of Sirt1 in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy and its underlying role in cardiac ferroptosis. In this study, C57BL/6 and cardiac-specific Sirt1-/- knockout mice were used as a DOX-induced cardiotoxicity model. We found that cardiac Sirt1 was downregulated, oxidative stress was increased and ferroptosis were obviously enhanced, as reflected by decreased Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and increased Heme oxygenase 1 (Hmox-1), exposure to DOX treatment in mice and H9c2 cells compared with the control. And Sirt1 activation was resistant to cardiac injury induced by DOX, as observed the improvement of cardiac dysfunction, and the reduction of cardiac fibrosis. However, cardiac Sirt1 deficiency aggravated Dox-induced cardiac dysfunction and cardiac remodeling, further downregulated GPX4, upregulated Hmox-1 expression and increased ROS level. In addition, Sirt1-siRNA exacerbated DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in H9c2 cells, which is similar to the results obtained in vivo. Furthermore, DOX decrease Nrf2 translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus, and Sirt1 deficiency further restrain the process, as well as the downstream Keap1 pathways, in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. This study provides direct evidence that Sirt1 plays a protective role in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity by mediating ferroptosis reduction via the Nrf2/Keap1 pathway.

Abstract
Resveratrol (Res) is a bioactive dietary component and alleviates apoptosis in multiple cell types. However, its effect and mechanism on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMEC) apoptosis, which commonly happens in dairy cows with mastitis, is unknown. We hypothesized that Res would inhibit LPS-induced apoptosis in BMEC through SIRT3, a NAD + -dependent deacetylase activated by Res. To test the dose-response effect on apoptosis, 0-50 μM Res were incubated with BMEC for 12 h, followed by 250 μg/mL LPS treatment for 12 h. To investigate the role of SIRT3 in Res-mediated alleviation of apoptosis, BMEC were pretreated with 50 μM Res for 12 h, then incubated with si-SIRT3 for 12 h and were finally treated with 250 μg/mL LPS for 12 h. Res dose-dependently promoted the cell viability and protein levels of Bcl-2 (Linear P < 0.001) but decreased protein levels of Bax, Caspase-3 and Bax/Bcl-2 (Linear P < 0.001). TUNEL assays indicated that cellular fluorescence intensity declined with the rising doses of Res. Res also dose-dependently upregulated SIRT3 expression, but LPS had the opposite effect. SIRT3 silencing abolished these results with Res incubation. Mechanically, Res enhanced the nuclear translocation of PGC1α, the transcriptional cofactor for SIRT3. Further molecular docking analysis revealed that Res could directly bind to PGC1α by forming a hydrogen bond with Tyr-722. Overall, our data suggested that Res relieved LPS-induced BMEC apoptosis through the PGC1α-SIRT3 axis, providing a basis for further in vivo investigations of applying Res to relieve mastitis in dairy cows.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is a highly effective chemotherapeutic drug, but its long-term use can cause cardiotoxicity and drug resistance. Accumulating evidence demonstrates that p53 is directly involved in DOX toxicity and resistance. One of the primary causes for DOX resistance is the mutation or inactivation of p53. Moreover, because the non-specific activation of p53 caused by DOX can kill non-cancerous cells, p53 is a popular target for reducing toxicity. However, the reduction in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) via p53 suppression is often at odds with the antitumor advantages of p53 reactivation. Therefore, in order to increase the effectiveness of DOX, there is an urgent need to explore p53-targeted anticancer strategies owing to the complex regulatory network and polymorphisms of the p53 gene. In this review, we summarize the role and potential mechanisms of p53 in DIC and resistance. Furthermore, we focus on the advances and challenges in applying dietary nutrients, natural products, and other pharmacological strategies to overcome DOX-induced chemoresistance and cardiotoxicity. Lastly, we present potential therapeutic strategies to address key issues in order to provide new ideas for increasing the clinical use of DOX and improving its anticancer benefits.

Abstract
Heart diseases are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. The underlying mechanisms and pathological changes associated with cardiac diseases are exceptionally complex. Highly active cardiomyocytes require sufficient energy metabolism to maintain their function. Under physiological conditions, the choice of fuel is a delicate process that depends on the whole body and organs to support the normal function of heart tissues. However, disordered cardiac metabolism has been discovered to play a key role in many forms of heart diseases, including ischemic heart disease, cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, and cardiac injury induced by diabetes or sepsis. Regulation of cardiac metabolism has recently emerged as a novel approach to treat heart diseases. However, little is known about cardiac energy metabolic regulators. Histone deacetylases (HDACs), a class of epigenetic regulatory enzymes, are involved in the pathogenesis of heart diseases, as reported in previous studies. Notably, the effects of HDACs on cardiac energy metabolism are gradually being explored. Our knowledge in this respect would facilitate the development of novel therapeutic strategies for heart diseases. The present review is based on the synthesis of our current knowledge concerning the role of HDAC regulation in cardiac energy metabolism in heart diseases. In addition, the role of HDACs in different models is discussed through the examples of myocardial ischemia, ischemia/reperfusion, cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and diabetes- or sepsis-induced cardiac injury. Finally, we discuss the application of HDAC inhibitors in heart diseases and further prospects, thus providing insights into new treatment possibilities for different heart diseases.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To address the mechanistic pathways focusing on mitochondria dysfunction, oxidative stress, sirtuins imbalance, and other contributors in patient with metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease. Sodium glucose co-transporter type 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors deeply influence these mechanisms. Recent randomized clinical trials have shown impressive results in improving cardiac function and reducing cardiovascular and renal events. These unexpected results generate the need to deepen our understanding of the molecular mechanisms able to generate these effects to help explain such significant clinical outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS Cardiovascular disease is highly prevalent among individuals with metabolic syndrome and diabetes. Furthermore, mitochondrial dysfunction is a principal player in its development and persistence, including the consequent cardiac remodeling and events. Another central protagonist is the renin-angiotensin system; the high angiotensin II (Ang II) activity fuel oxidative stress and local inflammatory responses. Additionally, sirtuins decline plays a pivotal role in the process; they enhance oxidative stress by regulating adaptive responses to the cellular environment and interacting with Ang II in many circumstances, including cardiac and vascular remodeling, inflammation, and fibrosis. Fasting and lower mitochondrial energy generation are conditions that substantially reduce most of the mentioned cardiometabolic syndrome disarrangements. In addition, it increases sirtuins levels, and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling stimulates hypoxia-inducible factor-1β (HIF-1 beta) and favors ketosis. All these effects favor autophagy and mitophagy, clean the cardiac cells with damaged organelles, and reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory response, giving cardiac tissue protection. In this sense, SGLT-2 inhibitors enhance the level of at least four sirtuins, some located in the mitochondria. Moreover, late evidence shows that SLGT-2 inhibitors mimic this protective process, improving mitochondria function, oxidative stress, and inflammation. Considering the previously described protection at the cardiovascular level is necessary to go deeper in the knowledge of the effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors on the mitochondria function. Various of the protective effects these drugs clearly had shown in the trials, and we briefly describe it could depend on sirtuins enhance activity, oxidative stress reduction, inflammatory process attenuation, less interstitial fibrosis, and a consequent better cardiac function. This information could encourage investigating new therapeutic strategies for metabolic syndrome, diabetes, heart and renal failure, and other diseases.

Abstract
SIRT3 is a longevity factor that acts as the primary deacetylase in mitochondria. Although ubiquitously expressed, previous global SIRT3 knockout studies have shown primarily a cardiac-specific phenotype. Here, we sought to determine how specifically knocking out SIRT3 in cardiomyocytes (SIRTcKO mice) temporally affects cardiac function and metabolism. Mice displayed an age-dependent increase in cardiac pathology, with 10-month-old mice exhibiting significant loss of systolic function, hypertrophy, and fibrosis. While mitochondrial function was maintained at 10 months, proteomics and metabolic phenotyping indicated SIRT3 hearts had increased reliance on glucose as an energy substrate. Additionally, there was a significant increase in branched-chain amino acids in SIRT3cKO hearts without concurrent increases in mTOR activity. Heavy water labeling experiments demonstrated that, by 3 months of age, there was an increase in protein synthesis that promoted hypertrophic growth with a potential loss of proteostasis in SIRT3cKO hearts. Cumulatively, these data show that the cardiomyocyte-specific loss of SIRT3 results in severe pathology with an accelerated aging phenotype.

Abstract
The ketone bodies beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate are hepatically produced metabolites catabolized in extrahepatic organs. Ketone bodies are a critical cardiac fuel and have diverse roles in the regulation of cellular processes such as metabolism, inflammation, and cellular crosstalk in multiple organs that mediate disease. This review focuses on the role of cardiac ketone metabolism in health and disease with an emphasis on the therapeutic potential of ketosis as a treatment for heart failure (HF). Cardiac metabolic reprogramming, characterized by diminished mitochondrial oxidative metabolism, contributes to cardiac dysfunction and pathologic remodeling during the development of HF. Growing evidence supports an adaptive role for ketone metabolism in HF to promote normal cardiac function and attenuate disease progression. Enhanced cardiac ketone utilization during HF is mediated by increased availability due to systemic ketosis and a cardiac autonomous upregulation of ketolytic enzymes. Therapeutic strategies designed to restore high-capacity fuel metabolism in the heart show promise to address fuel metabolic deficits that underpin the progression of HF. However, the mechanisms involved in the beneficial effects of ketone bodies in HF have yet to be defined and represent important future lines of inquiry. In addition to use as an energy substrate for cardiac mitochondrial oxidation, ketone bodies modulate myocardial utilization of glucose and fatty acids, two vital energy substrates that regulate cardiac function and hypertrophy. The salutary effects of ketone bodies during HF may also include extra-cardiac roles in modulating immune responses, reducing fibrosis, and promoting angiogenesis and vasodilation. Additional pleotropic signaling properties of beta-hydroxybutyrate and AcAc are discussed including epigenetic regulation and protection against oxidative stress. Evidence for the benefit and feasibility of therapeutic ketosis is examined in preclinical and clinical studies. Finally, ongoing clinical trials are reviewed for perspective on translation of ketone therapeutics for the treatment of HF.

Abstract
Pressure overload in patients with aortic valve stenosis and volume overload in mitral valve regurgitation trigger specific forms of cardiac remodeling; however, little is known about similarities and differences in myocardial proteome regulation. We performed proteome profiling of 75 human left ventricular myocardial biopsies (aortic stenosis = 41, mitral regurgitation = 17, and controls = 17) using high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry next to clinical and hemodynamic parameter acquisition. In patients of both disease groups, proteins related to ECM and cytoskeleton were more abundant, whereas those related to energy metabolism and proteostasis were less abundant compared with controls. In addition, disease group-specific and sex-specific differences have been observed. Male patients with aortic stenosis showed more proteins related to fibrosis and less to energy metabolism, whereas female patients showed strong reduction in proteostasis-related proteins. Clinical imaging was in line with proteomic findings, showing elevation of fibrosis in both patient groups and sex differences. Disease- and sex-specific proteomic profiles provide insight into cardiac remodeling in patients with heart valve disease and might help improve the understanding of molecular mechanisms and the development of individualized treatment strategies.

Abstract
Sirtuin-6 (SIRT6), a member of the sirtuins family of NAD ( +) dependent deacetylases, has been shown to have beneficial effects in ischemic stroke. However, the role of SIRT6 in intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) has not reported. We observed that SIRT6 expression was down-regulated in human ICH patients and down-regulated in ICH-induced rat cortical neurons. We subsequently found that SIRT6 overexpression reduced brain tissue damage and increased neuronal survival in the ICH model of rats and hemin-induced cortical neurons. Our further study found that overexpression of SIRT6 can reduce inflammatory response by down-regulating the expression of NF-kB and thus promote the recovery of neurological function in ICH animals. In conclusion, SIRT6 can inhibit the expression of NF-kB and plays a neuroprotective role in ICH by inhibiting the NF-kB-mediated inflammatory response.SIRT6 could be a novel therapeutic target for ICH.

Abstract
Circadian rhythm regulates numerous physiological processes, and disruption of the circadian clock can lead to cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Small non-coding RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), are involved in regulating gene expression, both those important for the cardiovascular system and key circadian clock genes. Epigenetic mechanisms based on miRNAs are essential for fine-tuning circadian physiology. Indeed, some miRNAs depend on circadian periodicity, others are under the influence of light, and still others are under the influence of core clock genes. Dysregulation of miRNAs involved in circadian rhythm modulation has been associated with inflammatory conditions of the endothelium and atherosclerosis, which can lead to coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction. Epigenetic processes are reversible through their association with environmental factors, enabling innovative preventive and therapeutic strategies for cardiovascular disease. Here, is a review of recent findings on how miRNAs modulate circadian rhythm desynchronization in cardiovascular disease. In the era of personalized medicine, the possibility of treatment with miRNA antagomirs should be time-dependent to correspond to chronotherapy and achieve the most significant efficacy.

Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a multi-etiological condition with a similar hemodynamic clinical sign and end result of right heart failure. Although its causes vary, a similar link across all the classifications is the presence of mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondria, as the powerhouse of the cells, hold a number of vital roles in maintaining normal cellular homeostasis, including the pulmonary vascular cells. As such, any disturbance in the normal functions of mitochondria could lead to major pathological consequences. The Warburg effect has been established as a major finding in PH conditions, but other mitochondria-related metabolic and oxidative stress factors have also been reported, making important contributions to the progression of pulmonary vascular remodeling that is commonly found in PH pathophysiology. In this review, we will discuss the role of the mitochondria in maintaining a normal vasculature, how it could be altered during pulmonary vascular remodeling, and the therapeutic options available that can treat its dysfunction.

Abstract
DNA damage response (DDR) signaling ensures genomic and proteomic homeostasis to maintain a healthy genome. Dysregulation either in the form of down- or upregulation in the DDR pathways correlates with various pathophysiological states, including cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Impaired DDR is studied as a signature mechanism for cancer; however, it also plays a role in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), inflammation, cardiovascular function, and aging, demonstrating a complex and intriguing relationship between cancer and pathophysiology of CVDs. Accordingly, there are increasing number of reports indicating higher incidences of CVDs in cancer patients. In the present review, we thoroughly discuss (1) different DDR pathways, (2) the functional cross talk among different DDR mechanisms, (3) the role of DDR in cancer, (4) the commonalities and differences of DDR between cancer and CVDs, (5) the role of DDR in pathophysiology of CVDs, (6) interventional strategies for targeting genomic instability in CVDs, and (7) future perspective.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT) exhibit deacetylation or ADP-ribosyltransferase activity and regulate a wide range of cellular processes in the nucleus, mitochondria and cytoplasm. The role of the only sirtuin that resides in the cytoplasm, SIRT2, in the development of heart failure (HF) and cardiac hypertrophy is not known. In this paper, we show that the hearts of mice with deletion of Sirt2 ( Sirt2 -/- ) display improved cardiac function after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and pressure overload (PO), suggesting that SIRT2 exerts maladaptive effects in the heart in response to stress. Similar results were obtained in mice with cardiomyocyte-specific Sirt2 deletion. Mechanistic studies suggest that SIRT2 modulates cellular levels and activity of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2), which results in reduced expression of antioxidant proteins. Deletion of Nrf2 in the hearts of Sirt2 -/- mice reversed protection after PO. Finally, treatment of mouse hearts with a specific SIRT2 inhibitors reduces cardiac size and attenuates cardiac hypertrophy in response to PO. These data indicate that SIRT2 has detrimental effects in the heart and plays a role in the progression of HF and cardiac hypertrophy, which makes this protein a unique member of the SIRT family. Additionally, our studies provide a novel approach for treatment of cardiac hypertrophy by targeting SIRT2 pharmacologically, providing a novel avenue for the treatment of this disorder.

Modulation of the miR-122/Sirt-6/ACE2 axis on experimentally-induced myocardial infarction. Chem Biol Interact 2023; 369:110276.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a progressive myocardial necrosis that can lead to a number of life-threatening complications. MiRNAs have a crucial role in the pathogenesis of many cardiovascular diseases. Remarkably, miR-122 targets the sirtuin-6 (Sirt-6) gene, which is an essential regulator of cardiovascular function and is considered a partial angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) activator. Modulation of this axis is supposed to contribute to MI pathogenesis. The current study aims to investigate the cardioprotective effects of xanthenone through targeting the miR-122/Sirt-6/ACE2 axis on experimentally-induced MI in rats. Xanthenone was administered for 14 days and isoprenaline was injected in the last 2 days of the experiment. Xanthenone treatment resulted in a significant downregulation of miR-122, which further upregulated Sirt-6 and thus activated the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). AMPK increases ACE2 levels and results in a decrease in the level of its substrate angiotensin II resulting in the normalization of the inflammatory cytokines and the cardiac biomarkers. Finally, by targeting the miR-122/Sirt-6/AMPK/ACE2 axis, xanthenone has the potential to be a promising cardioprotective agent against MI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MicroRNA (miR) therapeutics is a promising approach to manage coronary artery disease (CAD). Herein, this research was aimed to explore miR-181c-5p-related mechanisms in CAD through regulating SIRT1. METHODS A CAD mouse model was established by feeding a high-fat diet in 8-week-old ApoE-/- mice. miR-181c-5p, SIRT1, and acetylated p65 levels in mouse myocardial tissues were evaluated by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Hemodynamic parameters included the maximum rising rate of the left ventricular pressure (lv + dp/dtmax) and the time values from the onset of contraction to dp/dtmax (t-dp/dtmax), while hemorheological indices included whole blood viscosity (low shear, middle shear, or high shear), plasma viscosity, hematocrit, and platelet adhesion were measured. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and IL-6 were detected. Mouse pathological changes, degree of fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in myocardial tissues were assessed by HE, Masson, and TUNEL staining, respectively. The targeting relationship between miR-181c-5p and SIRT1 was verified by bioinformatics tools, dual luciferase reporter gene assay, and RNA pull-down assays. RESULTS In myocardial tissue of CAD mice, miR-181c-5p and acetylated p65 were upregulated while SIRT1 was downregulated. Downregulating miR-181c-5p or upregulating SIRT1 effectively ameliorated CAD by improving hemodynamics and hemorheology and reducing inflammation, pathological changes, degree of fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in myocardial tissues of mice. miR-181c-5p targeted SIRT1, and overexpression of SIRT1 relieved upregulated miR-181c-5p-induced injuries in CAD mice. Regulating miR-181c-5p and SIRT1 affected the acetylation of p65. CONCLUSION Downregulation of miR-181c-5p may ameliorate myocardial pathological changes and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in CAD by upregulating SIRT1 expression and decreasing acetylated p65 levels.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 108:154502.

Abstract
BACKGROUND TYHX-Tongyang Huoxue decoction has been used clinically for nearly 40 years. The ingredients of TYHX are Radix Astragali (Huangqi), Red Ginseng (Hongshen), Rehmannia Glutinosa (Dihuang), Common Yam Rhizome (Shanyao) and Cassia-bark-tree Bark (Rougui). Our previous experiments confirmed that TYHX can protect sinoatrial node cells. However, its mechanism of action is not completely understood yet. PURPOSE The present study aimed to determine the protective effects of TYHX against Sinus node cell injury under hypoxic stress and elucidate the underlying mechanisms of protection. METHODS Through RNA sequencing analysis and network pharmacology analysis, we found significant differences in mitochondrial-related genes before and after hypoxia-mimicking SNC, resolved the main regulatory mechanism of TYHX. Through the intervention of TYHX on SNC, a series of detection methods such as laser confocal, fluorescence co-localization, mitochondrial membrane potential and RT-PCR. The regulatory effect of TYHX on β-tubulin in sinoatrial node cells was verified by in vitro experiments. The mechanism of action of TYHX and its active ingredient quercetin to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis and protect sinoatrial node cells through mitophagy, mitochondrial fusion/fission and mitochondrial biosynthesis was confirmed. RESULTS Through RNA sequencing analysis, we found that there were significant differences in mitochondrial related genes before and after SNC was modeled by hypoxia. Through pharmacological experiments, we showed that TYHX could inhibit the migration of Drp1 to mitochondria, inhibit excessive mitochondrial fission, activate mitophagy and increase the mitochondrial membrane potential. These protective effects were mainly mediated by β-tubulin. Furthermore, the active component quercetin in TYHX could inhibit excessive mitochondrial fission through SIRT1, maintain mitochondrial energy metabolism and protect SNCs. Our results showed that protection of mitochondrial function through the maintenance of β-tubulin and activation of SIRT1 is the main mechanism by which TYHX alleviates hypoxic stress injury in SNCs. The regulatory effects of TYHX and quercetin on mitochondrial quality surveillance are also necessary. Our findings provide empirical evidence supporting the use of TYHX as a targeted treatment for sick sinus syndrome. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that TYHX exerts protective effects against sinus node cell injury under hypoxic stress, which may be associated with the regulation of mitochondrial quality surveillance (MQS) and inhibition of mitochondrial homeostasis-mediated apoptosis.

Abstract
Abnormal proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are essential for the development of hypertension. Insulin has been identified to promote VSMC proliferation and migration; resveratrol has been shown to have protective effects against cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to investigate the effect of resveratrol on insulin-induced VSMC proliferation and migration and its potential mechanism. VSMC proliferation was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), cell counting method, and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation assay. Cell migration was detected by wound healing assay and transwell method. Expression of silent information regulator of transcription 1 (SIRT1) and phosphorylation levels of signaling molecules, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (Akt), in VSMCs were detected by Western blotting. Resveratrol (25-150 μM) was found to inhibit insulin-induced VSMC proliferation. Pretreatment with 100 μM resveratrol reduced insulin (100 nM)-mediated VSMC migration. LY294002, an inhibitor of PI3K, inhibited the stimulatory effect of insulin (100 nM) on the proliferation of VSMCs. Treatment with resveratrol also decreased insulin-induced stimulatory effect on PI3K and Akt phosphorylation levels. Moreover, resveratrol treatment increased SIRT1 protein expression in VSMCs. A SIRT1 inhibitor, EX527, reversed the inhibitory effect of resveratrol on insulin-induced VSMC proliferation and migration and activation of PI3K and Akt phosphorylation levels. In conclusion, our study revealed that treatment with resveratrol inhibited insulin-mediated VSMC proliferation and migration, possibly by activating SIRT1 and downregulating the PI3K/AKT pathway.

Doxorubicin (DOX) is a chemotherapeutic drug widely used for cancer treatment, but its use is limited by cardiotoxicity. Although free radicals from redox cycling and free cellular iron have been predominant as the suggested primary pathogenic mechanism, novel evidence has pointed to topoisomerase II inhibition and resultant genotoxic stress as the more fundamental mechanism. Recently, a growing list of microRNAs (miRNAs) has been implicated in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC). This review summarizes miRNAs reported in the recent literature in the context of DIC. A particular focus is given to miRNAs that regulate cellular responses downstream to DOX-induced DNA damage, especially p53 activation, pro-survival signaling pathway inhibition (e.g., AMPK, AKT, GATA-4, and sirtuin pathways), mitochondrial dysfunction, and ferroptosis. Since these pathways are potential targets for cardioprotection against DOX, an understanding of how miRNAs participate is necessary for developing future therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise is an effective nonpharmacological strategy to alleviate diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) through poorly defined mechanisms. FGF21 (fibroblast growth factor 21), a peptide hormone with pleiotropic benefits on cardiometabolic homeostasis, has been identified as an exercise responsive factor. This study aims to investigate whether FGF21 signaling mediates the benefits of exercise on DCM, and if so, to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. METHODS The global or hepatocyte-specific FGF21 knockout mice, cardiomyocyte-selective β-klotho (the obligatory co-receptor for FGF21) knockout mice, and their wild-type littermates were subjected to high-fat diet feeding and injection of streptozotocin to induce DCM, followed by a 6-week exercise intervention and assessment of cardiac functions. Cardiac mitochondrial structure and function were assessed by electron microscopy, enzymatic assays, and measurements of fatty acid oxidation and ATP production. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes were used to investigate the receptor and postreceptor signaling pathways conferring the protective effects of FGF21 against toxic lipids-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. RESULTS Treadmill exercise markedly induced cardiac expression of β-klotho and significantly attenuated diabetes-induced cardiac dysfunction in wild-type mice, accompanied by reduced mitochondrial damage and increased activities of mitochondrial enzymes in hearts. However, such cardioprotective benefits of exercise were largely abrogated in mice with global or hepatocyte-selective ablation of FGF21, or cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of β-klotho. Mechanistically, exercise enhanced the cardiac actions of FGF21 to induce the expression of the mitochondrial deacetylase SIRT3 by AMPK-evoked phosphorylation of FOXO3, thereby reversing diabetes-induced hyperacetylation and functional impairments of a cluster of mitochondrial enzymes. FGF21 prevented toxic lipids-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress by induction of the AMPK/FOXO3/SIRT3 signaling axis in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. Adeno-associated virus-mediated restoration of cardiac SIRT3 expression was sufficient to restore the responsiveness of diabetic FGF21 knockout mice to exercise in amelioration of mitochondrial dysfunction and DCM. CONCLUSIONS The FGF21-SIRT3 axis mediates the protective effects of exercise against DCM by preserving mitochondrial integrity and represents a potential therapeutic target for DCM.

Abstract
We present an update of EpiFactors, a manually curated database providing information about epigenetic regulators, their complexes, targets, and products which is openly accessible at http://epifactors.autosome.org. An updated version of the EpiFactors contains information on 902 proteins, including 101 histones and protamines, and, as a main update, a newly curated collection of 124 lncRNAs involved in epigenetic regulation. The amount of publications concerning the role of lncRNA in epigenetics is rapidly growing. Yet, the resource that compiles, integrates, organizes, and presents curated information on lncRNAs in epigenetics is missing. EpiFactors fills this gap and provides data on epigenetic regulators in an accessible and user-friendly form. For 820 of the genes in EpiFactors, we include expression estimates across multiple cell types assessed by CAGE-Seq in the FANTOM5 project. In addition, the updated EpiFactors contains information on 73 protein complexes involved in epigenetic regulation. Our resource is practical for a wide range of users, including biologists, bioinformaticians and molecular/systems biologists.

Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, the neoplasm is one of the main reasons for morbidity and mortality worldwide. At the same time, application of cytostatic drugs like an independent type of cancer treatment and in combination with surgical methods, is often associated with the development of cardiovascular complications both in the early and in the delayed period of treatment. Doxorubicin (DOX) is the most commonly used cytotoxic anthracycline antibiotic. DOX can cause both acute and delayed side effects. The problem is still not solved, as evidenced by the continued activity of researchers in terms of developing approaches for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular complications. It is known, the heart muscle consists of cardiomyocytes connected by intercalated discs (ID), which ensure the structural, electrical, metabolic unity of the heart. Various defects in the ID proteins can lead to the development of cardiovascular diseases of various etiologies, including DOX-induced cardiomyopathy. The search for ways to influence the functioning of ID proteins of the cardiac muscle can become the basis for the creation of new therapeutic approaches to the treatment and prevention of cardiac pathologies. SIRT1 may be an interesting cardioprotective variant due to its wide functional significance. SIRT1 activation triggers nuclear transcription programs that increase the efficiency of cellular, mitochondrial metabolism, increases resistance to oxidative stress, and promotes cell survival. It can be assumed that SIRT1 can not only provide a protective effect at the cardiomyocytes level, leading to an improvement in mitochondrial and metabolic functions, reducing the effects of oxidative stress and inflammatory processes, but also have a protective effect on the functioning of IDs structures of the cardiac muscle.

Abstract
Objective Cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction was found in ischemic heart disease (IHD). Hence, this study determined the effects of exercise training (ET) on cardiac mitochondrial respiration and cardiac mitochondrial quality control in IHD. Methods A narrative synthesis was conducted after searching animal studies written in English in three databases (PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE) until December 2020. Studies that used aerobic exercise as an intervention for at least 3 weeks and had at least normal, negative (sedentary IHD), and positive (exercise-trained IHD) groups were included. The CAMARADES checklist was used to check the quality of the included studies. Results The 10 included studies (CAMARADES score: 6–7/10) used swimming or treadmill exercise for 3–8 weeks. Seven studies showed that ET ameliorated cardiac mitochondrial respiratory function as manifested by decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and increased complexes I-V activity, superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), respiratory control ratio (RCR), NADH dehydrogenase subunits 1 and 6 (ND1/6), Cytochrome B (CytB), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Ten studies showed that ET improved cardiac mitochondrial quality control in IHD as manifested by enhanced and/or controlled mitochondrial biogenesis, dynamics, and mitophagy. Four other studies showed that ET resulted in better cardiac mitochondrial physiological characteristics. Conclusion Exercise training could improve cardiac mitochondrial functions, including respiration, biogenesis, dynamics, and mitophagy in IHD.

Abstract
Treprostinil palmitil (TP), a long-acting inhaled pulmonary vasodilator prodrug of treprostinil (TRE), has beneficial effects in a Sugen5416/hypoxia (Su/Hx) rat model of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) that compare favorably to the oral phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor (PDE5) sildenafil. In this study in male Sprague-Dawley rats, a dry powder formulation of TP (TPIP) was compared with inhaled and intravenous TRE and oral selexipag to evaluate inhibition of hemodynamic and pathologic changes in the lungs and heart induced by Su/Hx challenge. Su (20 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously followed by 3 weeks of Hx (10% O2/balance N2) and then initiation of test article administration over 5 weeks with room air breathing. Hemodynamics and histopathology were measured at the end of the study. Su/Hx challenge approximately doubled the mean pulmonary arterial blood pressure (mPAP) and the Fulton index, decreased cardiac output (CO), doubled the wall thickness and muscularization of the small (10-50 μm) and medium (51-100 μm) sized pulmonary arteries, and increased the percentage of obliterated pulmonary blood vessels. Even though inhaled TRE (65 μg/kg, 4× daily), intravenous TRE (810 ng/kg/min), and oral selexipag (30 mg/kg, twice daily) provided some beneficial effects against the Su/Hx challenge, the overall benefit was generally greater with TPIP at high dose (117 μg/kg, once daily). These results demonstrate that TPIP compares favorably to inhaled and intravenous TRE and oral selexipag with respect to inhibition of the pathophysiological changes induced by Su/Hx challenge in rats. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Treprostinil palmitil (TP) is a long-acting pulmonary vasodilator prodrug of treprostinil (TRE) formulated for inhaled administration by dry powder [treprostinil palmitil inhalation powder (TPIP)]. Comparison of the activity of TPIP, inhaled and intravenous TRE, and oral selexipag in a Sugen5416/hypoxia (Su/Hx) rat model of pulmonary arterial hypertension demonstrated that each of these drugs exert protection against the hemodynamic and histopathological changes induced by the Su/Hx challenge, with the greatest effect on these changes produced by TPIP.

Abstract
Cardiac microvascular injury can be a fundamental pathological process that causes high incidence cardiovascular diseases such heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and hypertension. It is also an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Oxidative stress is a significant pathological process in which the body interferes with the balance of the endogenous antioxidant defense system by producing reactive oxygen species, leading to property changes and dysfunction. It has been demonstrated that oxidative stress is one of the major causes of cardiac microvascular disease. Therefore, additional investigation into the relationship between oxidative stress and cardiac microvascular injury will direct clinical management in the future. In order to give suggestions and support for future in-depth studies, we give a basic overview of the cardiac microvasculature in relation to physiopathology in this review. We also summarize the role of oxidative stress of mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial origin in cardiac microvascular injury and related drug studies.

MiRNAs are a large group of non-coding RNAs which participate in different cellular pathways like inflammation and oxidation through transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and epigenetic regulation. In the post-transcriptional regulation, miRNA interacts with the 3'-UTR of mRNAs and prevents their translation. This prevention or dysregulation can be a cause of pathological conditions like diabetic complications. A huge number of studies have revealed the association between miRNAs and diabetic complications, including diabetic nephropathy, cardiomyopathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, and delayed wound healing. To address this issue, recent studies have focused on the use of polyphenols as selective and safe drugs in the treatment of diabetes complications. In this article, we will review the involvement of miRNAs in diabetic complications' occurrence or development. Finally, we will review the latest findings on targeting miRNAs by polyphenols like curcumin, resveratrol, and quercetin for diabetic complications therapy.

Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker Irbesartan Enhanced SIRT1 longevity Signaling Replaces the Mitochondrial Biogenetic Survival Pathway to Attenuate Hypertension-Induced Heart Apoptosis. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2022; 9:jcdd9080266. [PMID: 36005430 PMCID: PMC9409657 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd9080266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2022] [Revised: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The present study investigated whether angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker irbesartan (ARB) and partial agonist of PPAR-γ prevents heart apoptosis by suppressing cardiac Fas/FasL-mediated to mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in the hearts of hypertensive rat model. Methods: Cardiac function using echocardiography, H&E staining, TUNEL assay, and Western blotting were measured in the excised hearts from three groups, i.e., an untreated hypertensive group (SHR), an ARB-treated hypertensive group (50 mg/kg/day, S.C., SHR-ARB), and untreated normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY). Results: Fas Ligand, Fas death receptors, FADD, active caspase-8, active caspase-3 (Fas/FasL-mediated apoptotic pathway), as well as Bax, cytochrome c, active caspase-9 and -3 (mitochondria-mediated apoptotic pathway), IGF-II, and p-JNK were decreased in SHR-ARB group when compared with the SHR group. SIRT1, PGC-1α, Bcl2, and Bcl-xL (SIRT1/PGC-1α pro-survival pathway) were increased in the SHR-ARB group when compared with the SHR group. Conclusions: Our findings suggested that the ARB might prevent cardiac Fas/FasL-mediated to mitochondria-mediated apoptosis pathway in the hypertensive model associated with IGF-II, p-JNK deactivation, and SIRT1/PGC-1α pro-survival pathway upregulation. ARB prevents hypertension-enhanced cardiac apoptosis via enhancing SIRT1 longevity signaling and enhances the mitochondrial biogenetic survival pathway.

Abstract
Hypoxia preconditioning is neuroprotective, but the therapeutic effects of intermittent hypoxia were not fully considered. The present study investigated the neuroprotective effect and mechanism of intermittent hypoxia on motor function after cerebral ischemia and explored alternative clinical treatment options. In total, 36 8-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to 60 min of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) and then randomly divided into a sham-operated group (SHAM), tMCAO-sedentary group (SED), and tMCAO-intermittent hypoxia group (IH). The intervention was performed 1 week after tMCAO and lasted 4 weeks. Rats in the IH group were placed in an animal hypoxic chamber (altitude 5000 m and oxygen concentration of 13%) for 4 h/day and 7 days/week, and rats in the SED group were placed in a normoxic environment for 4 weeks. Body weights, neurological deficit scores, cerebral infarction volume ratios, gait analyses, mitochondrial structure, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content and AMO-activated protein kinase (AMPK), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ co-activator-1α (PGC-1α), and silencing regulatory protein 3 (Sirt3) expression in the peri-ischemic region brain tissues were detected during the intervention. Compared with the SED group, the body weight of the IH group gradually recovered, and the neurological deficit scores were significantly reduced (P < 0.05). The gait analysis results showed that the pressure of the affected paw and the maximum content area, swing speed, stride length, and other parameters were significantly restored (P < 0.05). The cerebral infarction volume ratio was significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Mitochondrial morphological structure damage in the peri-ischemic region brain tissues recovered, the number was significantly increased (P < 0.05), and the expression of AMPK, PGC-1α, and Sirt3 proteins (P < 0.05), and ATP content were significantly increased (P < 0.05). Intermittent hypoxia may activate the AMPK-PGC-1α-Sirt3 signaling pathway, promote mitochondrial biogenesis, repair mitochondrial ultrastructural damage, and improve mitochondrial function to reduce brain damage and promote motor function recovery in rats with cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
Ketone bodies (KBs) and Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) have received increasing attention over the past two decades given their pivotal function in a variety of biological contexts, including transcriptional regulation, cell cycle progression, inflammation, metabolism, neurological and cardiovascular physiology, and cancer. As a consequence, the modulation of KBs and SIRT1 is considered a promising therapeutic option for many diseases. The direct regulation of gene expression can occur in vivo through histone modifications mediated by both SIRT1 and KBs during fasting or low-carbohydrate diets, and dietary metabolites may contribute to epigenetic regulation, leading to greater genomic plasticity. In this review, we provide an updated overview of the epigenetic interactions between KBs and SIRT1, with a particular glance at their central, synergistic roles for metabolic health.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is a key process in cardiac remodeling development, leading to ventricle enlargement and heart failure. Recently, studies show the complicated relation between cardiac hypertrophy and epigenetic modification. Post-translational modification of histone is an essential part of epigenetic modification, which is relevant to multiple cardiac diseases, especially in cardiac hypertrophy. There is a group of enzymes related in the balance of histone acetylation/deacetylation, which is defined as histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and histone deacetylase (HDAC). In this review, we introduce an important enzyme family HDAC, a key regulator in histone deacetylation. In cardiac hypertrophy HDAC I downregulates the anti-hypertrophy gene expression, including Kruppel-like factor 4 (Klf4) and inositol-5 phosphatase f (Inpp5f), and promote the development of cardiac hypertrophy. On the contrary, HDAC II binds to myocyte-specific enhancer factor 2 (MEF2), inhibit the assemble ability to HAT and protect against cardiac hypertrophy. Under adverse stimuli such as pressure overload and calcineurin stimulation, the HDAC II transfer to cytoplasm, and MEF2 can bind to nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) or GATA binding protein 4 (GATA4), mediating inappropriate gene expression. HDAC III, also known as SIRTs, can interact not only to transcription factors, but also exist interaction mechanisms to other HDACs, such as HDAC IIa. We also present the latest progress of HDAC inhibitors (HDACi), as a potential treatment target in cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
Numerous microRNAs (miRs) are abnormally expressed in response to hypoxia-induced myocardial damage. Herein, miR-34c-5p as a potential pharmaco-target was investigated in a mouse model of chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH)-induced myocardial damage. A mouse model of myocardial damage was established using CIH with 7% or 21% O2 alternating 60 s for 12 h/day, 21% O2 for 12 h/day. AntagomiR-34c-5p (20 nM/0.1 ml; once a week for 12 weeks) was used as a miR-34c-5p inhibitor in a mouse model with tail-vein injection. In another experiment, mice were administrated with Sirt1 activator SRT1720 (50 mg/kg/day) by intraperitoneal injection. Gene Expression Omnibus database showed a significant upregulation of miR-34c-5p expression in the ischemic myocardium of male mice. In CIH-stimulated mice, miR-34c-5p expression was also significantly increased compared with normal mice. Treatment of antagomiR-34c-5p significantly restrained CIH-triggered myocardial apoptosis. After administration of antagomiR-34c-5p or Sirt1 activator SRT1720, cardiac hypertrophy and oxidative stress were attenuated in CIH-stimulated mice. We also found sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) as a direct target of miR-34c-5p, which was able to mediate Sirt1 protein expression in cardiomyocytes. AntagomiR-34c-5p injection markedly elevated Sirt1 protein expression in CIH-stimulated mice. AntagomiR-34c-5p or Sirt1 activator SRT1720 administration exhibited the antioxidative activity and cardioprotective roles in CIH-stimulated mice.

Abstract
Sirtuins are a vast family of histone deacetylases, which are NAD+ dependent enzymes, consisting of seven members, namely SIRT 1, SIRT 6 and SIRT 7 located within the nucleus, SIRT 2 in the cytoplasm and SIRT 3, SIRT 4, and SIRT 5 in the mitochondria. They have vital roles in regulating various biological functions such as age-related metabolic disorders, inflammation, stress response, cardiovascular and neuronal functions. Delayed wound healing is one of the complication of diabetes, which can lead to lower limb amputation if not treated timely. SIRT 1, 3 and 6 are potent targets for diabetic wound healing. SIRT 1 deficiency reduces recruitment of fibroblasts, macrophages, mast cells, neutrophils to wound site and delays wound healing; negatively expressing MMP-9. The SIRT 1 mediated signalling pathway in diabetic wound healing is the SIRT 1-foxo-C-Myc pathway. On the contrary SIRT 3 deficiency, impairs proliferation and migration of fibroblasts and SIRT 6 deficiency impairs wound closure rate and interrupts the vascular remodelling. This review focuses on the role of sirtuins in improving delayed wound healing in diabetes and its natural modulators with their specific functions towards healing diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Acylcarnitines are fatty acid metabolites that play important roles in many cellular energy metabolism pathways. They have historically been used as important diagnostic markers for inborn errors of fatty acid oxidation and are being intensively studied as markers of energy metabolism, deficits in mitochondrial and peroxisomal β -oxidation activity, insulin resistance, and physical activity. Acylcarnitines are increasingly being identified as important indicators in metabolic studies of many diseases, including metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, depression, neurologic disorders, and certain cancers. The US Food and Drug Administration-approved drug L-carnitine, along with short-chain acylcarnitines (acetylcarnitine and propionylcarnitine), is now widely used as a dietary supplement. In light of their growing importance, we have undertaken an extensive review of acylcarnitines and provided a detailed description of their identity, nomenclature, classification, biochemistry, pathophysiology, supplementary use, potential drug targets, and clinical trials. We also summarize these updates in the Human Metabolome Database, which now includes information on the structures, chemical formulae, chemical/spectral properties, descriptions, and pathways for 1240 acylcarnitines. This work lays a solid foundation for identifying, characterizing, and understanding acylcarnitines in human biosamples. We also discuss the emerging opportunities for using acylcarnitines as biomarkers and as dietary interventions or supplements for many wide-ranging indications. The opportunity to identify new drug targets involved in controlling acylcarnitine levels is also discussed. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This review provides a comprehensive overview of acylcarnitines, including their nomenclature, structure and biochemistry, and use as disease biomarkers and pharmaceutical agents. We present updated information contained in the Human Metabolome Database website as well as substantial mapping of the known biochemical pathways associated with acylcarnitines, thereby providing a strong foundation for further clarification of their physiological roles.

Background Dilated cardiomyopathy remains a leading cause of heart failure worldwide. Immune inflammation response is recognized as a significant player in the progression of heart failure; however, immunomodulatory strategies remain a long-term challenge. Colchicine, a potent anti-inflammatory drug, has many benefits in ischemic cardiovascular events, but its role in nonischemic heart failure remains unclear. Methods and Results Doxorubicin administration was used to establish a murine dilated cardiomyopathy model, and colchicine or saline was orally given. At the end point, cardiac function and fibrosis were measured to investigate the effects of colchicine. Inflammatory cytokine levels, neutrophil recruitment, and NLRP3 (NOD-like receptor protein 3) inflammasome activation were detected to evaluate the inflammatory response. Furthermore, to examine the downstream target of colchicine, SIRT2 (Sirtuin 2) was pharmacologically inhibited in vitro; thus, changes in the NLRP3 inflammasome were detected by immunoblotting. These results showed that murine cardiac function was significantly improved and fibrosis was significantly alleviated after colchicine treatment. Moreover, the infiltration of neutrophils and the levels of inflammatory cytokines in the failing myocardium were both decreased by colchicine treatment. Mechanistically, colchicine upregulated the expression of SIRT2, leading to the inactivation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in an NLRP3 deacetylated manner. Conversely, the inhibition of SIRT2 attenuated the suppressive effect of colchicine on NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Conclusions This study indicated that colchicine could be a promising therapeutic candidate for dilated cardiomyopathy and other nonischemic heart failure associated with the inflammatory response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Limonin, a natural tetracyclic triterpenoid extract, exerts extensive pharmacological effects; however, its role in cardiac hypertrophy remains to be elucidated. We investigated the beneficial effects of limonin on cardiac hypertrophy and explored the potential mechanisms. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH C57/BL6 male mice were subjected to aortic banding (AB) surgery and neonatal rat cardiac myocytes (NRCMs) were stimulated with phenylephrine (PE) to evaluate the effects of limonin on cardiac hypertrophy. KEY RESULTS Limonin markedly improved the cardiac function and heart weight in AB operation mice. In addition, limonin-treated mice and NRCMs produced fewer cardiac hypertrophy markers than those treated with the vehicle in hypertrophic groups. Sustained AB- or PE-stimulation impaired cardiac sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) protein levels, which were partially rescued by limonin and subsequently enhanced the activity of PPARα, and Sirt6 siRNA inhibited the anti-hypertrophic effects of limonin in vitro. Interestingly, limonin did not influence Sirt6 mRNA levels, but controlled its ubiquitin levels. Thus, the protein biosynthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide (CHX), and proteasome inhibitor, MG-132, were used to determine SIRT6 protein expression levels. Under PE stimulation, limonin increased SIRT6 protein levels in the presence of CHX, but it didn't influence SIRT6 expression in the presence of MG-132, suggesting that limonin promotes SIRT6 abundance by inhibiting its ubiquitination degradation. Furthermore, limonin inhibited the degradation of SIRT6 by activating ubiquitin-specific peptidase (Cuspidi et al.)-10, while USP10 siRNA abrogated the beneficial effects of limonin. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Limonin mediates the ubiquitination and degradation of SIRT6 by activating USP10, providing an attractive therapeutic target for cardiac hypertrophy.

Delayed Impact of 2-Oxoadipate Dehydrogenase Inhibition on the Rat Brain Metabolism Is Linked to Protein Glutarylation. Front Med (Lausanne) 2022; 9:896263.

Abstract
Background The DHTKD1-encoded 2-oxoadipate dehydrogenase (OADH) oxidizes 2-oxoadipate—a common intermediate of the lysine and tryptophan catabolism. The mostly low and cell-specific flux through these pathways, and similar activities of OADH and ubiquitously expressed 2-oxoglutarate dehydrogenase (OGDH), agree with often asymptomatic phenotypes of heterozygous mutations in the DHTKD1 gene. Nevertheless, OADH/DHTKD1 are linked to impaired insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular disease risks, and Charcot-Marie-Tooth neuropathy. We hypothesize that systemic significance of OADH relies on its generation of glutaryl residues for protein glutarylation. Using pharmacological inhibition of OADH and the animal model of spinal cord injury (SCI), we explore this hypothesis. Methods The weight-drop model of SCI, a single intranasal administration of an OADH-directed inhibitor trimethyl adipoyl phosphonate (TMAP), and quantification of the associated metabolic changes in the rat brain employ established methods. Results The TMAP-induced metabolic changes in the brain of the control, laminectomized (LE) and SCI rats are long-term and (patho)physiology-dependent. Increased glutarylation of the brain proteins, proportional to OADH expression in the control and LE rats, represents a long-term consequence of the OADH inhibition. The proportionality suggests autoglutarylation of OADH, supported by our mass-spectrometric identification of glutarylated K155 and K818 in recombinant human OADH. In SCI rats, TMAP increases glutarylation of the brain proteins more than OADH expression, inducing a strong perturbation in the brain glutathione metabolism. The redox metabolism is not perturbed by TMAP in LE animals, where the inhibition of OADH increases expression of deglutarylase sirtuin 5. The results reveal the glutarylation-imposed control of the brain glutathione metabolism. Glutarylation of the ODP2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex at K451 is detected in the rat brain, linking the OADH function to the brain glucose oxidation essential for the redox state. Short-term inhibition of OADH by TMAP administration manifests in increased levels of tryptophan and decreased levels of sirtuins 5 and 3 in the brain. Conclusion Pharmacological inhibition of OADH affects acylation system of the brain, causing long-term, (patho)physiology-dependent changes in the expression of OADH and sirtuin 5, protein glutarylation and glutathione metabolism. The identified glutarylation of ODP2 subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex provides a molecular mechanism of the OADH association with diabetes.

Ferulic Acid, Pterostilbene, and Tyrosol Protect the Heart from ER-Stress-Induced Injury by Activating SIRT1-Dependent Deacetylation of eIF2α. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23126628.

Abstract
Disturbances in Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) homeostasis induce ER stress, which has been involved in the development and progression of various heart diseases, including arrhythmias, cardiac hypertrophy, ischemic heart diseases, dilated cardiomyopathy, and heart failure. A mild-to-moderate ER stress is considered beneficial and adaptative for heart functioning by engaging the pro-survival unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore normal ER function. By contrast, a severe or prolonged ER stress is detrimental by promoting cardiomyocyte apoptosis through hyperactivation of the UPR pathways. Previously, we have demonstrated that the NAD+-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 is cardioprotective in response to severe ER stress by regulating the PERK pathway of the UPR, suggesting that activation of SIRT1 could protect against ER-stress-induced cardiac damage. The purpose of this study was to identify natural molecules able to alleviate ER stress and inhibit cardiomyocyte cell death through SIRT1 activation. Several phenolic compounds, abundant in vegetables, fruits, cereals, wine, and tea, were reported to stimulate the deacetylase activity of SIRT1. Here, we evaluated the cardioprotective effect of ten of these phenolic compounds against severe ER stress using cardiomyoblast cells and mice. Among the molecules tested, we showed that ferulic acid, pterostilbene, and tyrosol significantly protect cardiomyocytes and mice heart from cardiac alterations induced by severe ER stress. By studying the mechanisms involved, we showed that the activation of the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway of the UPR was reduced by ferulic acid, pterostilbene, and tyrosol under ER stress conditions, leading to a reduction in cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The protection afforded by these phenolic compounds was not directly related to their antioxidant activity but rather to their ability to increase SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of eIF2α. Taken together, our results suggest that ferulic acid, pterostilbene, and tyrosol are promising molecules to activate SIRT1 to protect the heart from the adverse effects of ER stress.

Abstract
Heart failure caused by pressure overload is one of the leading causes of heart failure worldwide, but its pathological origin remains poorly understood. It remains critical to discover and find new improvements and treatments for pressure overload-induced heart failure. According to previous studies, mitochondrial dysfunction and myocardial interstitial fibrosis are important mechanisms for the development of heart failure. The oligopeptide Szeto-Schiller Compound 31 (SS31) can specifically interact with the inner mitochondrial membrane and affect the integrity of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Whether SS31 alleviates pressure overload-induced heart failure through the regulation of mitochondrial fusion has not yet been confirmed. We established a pressure-overloaded heart failure mouse model through TAC surgery and found that SS31 can significantly improve cardiac function, reduce myocardial interstitial fibrosis, and increase the expression of optic atrophy-associated protein 1 (OPA1), a key protein in mitochondrial fusion. Interestingly, the role of SS31 in improving heart failure and reducing fibrosis is inseparable from the presence of sirtuin3 (Sirt3). We found that in Sirt3KO mice and fibroblasts, the effects of SS31 on improving heart failure and improving fibroblast transdifferentiation were disappeared. Likewise, Sirt3 has direct interactions with proteins critical for mitochondrial fission and fusion. We found that SS31 failed to increase OPA1 expression in both Sirt3KO mice and fibroblasts. Thus, SS31 can alleviate pressure overload-induced heart failure through Sirt3-mediated mitochondrial fusion. This study provides new directions and drug options for the clinical treatment of heart failure caused by pressure overload.

Abstract
AIMS SIRT1 exerts effects on ageing and lifespan, as well cardiovascular (CV) disease risk. SIRT1 gene is very polymorph with a few tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) so far identified. Some SNPs, including rs7896005, were associated with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We aimed to ascertain whether this SNP may be associated with CV disease at baseline as well with these same outcomes and all-cause mortality over a 13-year follow-up. MATERIALS AND METHODS Genotypes of SIRT1 gene were determined using TaqMan SNP assay. RESULTS Out of 905 T2DM, 9.1% had the AA genotype, 43.2% the AG, and 47.7% the GG. Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium was met (minor allele frequency 0.306; p = 0.8899). At baseline, there was no difference across genotypes for sex, age, diabetes duration, CV risk factors, treatments, and microangiopathy. Major CV outcomes, myocardial infarction (MI), any coronary heart disease (CHD), and peripheral artery disease (PAD) were more frequent in GG than in AA/AG (p from 0.013 to 0.027), with no association with cerebrovascular events. By fully adjusted regression, GG remained independently related to major CV outcomes, MI, CHD, and PAD. Over follow-up, we recorded 258 major CV events (28.5%; AA/AG 25.2%, GG 32.2%; p = 0.014) with an adjusted hazard ratio (HR) of GG versus AA/AG of 1.296 (95% CI 1.007-1.668, p = 0.044); 169 coronary events (18.7%; AA/AG 15.4%, GG 22.2%; p = 0.006) with HR 1.522 (1.113-2.080, p = 0.008); 79 (8.7%) hospitalisation for heart failure (AA/AG 7.0%, GG 10.6%; p = 0.045) and HR 1.457 (0.919-2.309, p = 0.109); 36 PAD (4.0%; AA/AG 2.3%, GG 5.8%; p = 0.007) with HR 2.225 (1.057-4.684, p = 0.035). No association was found with cerebrovascular events, end stage renal disease, and all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS The rs7896005 SNP of SIRT1 might play a role in cardiovascular disease, mainly CHD risk in T2DM. Results call for larger association studies as well as studies to ascertain mechanisms by which this variant confers increased risk.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are described as NAD+-dependent deacetylases, also known as class III histone deacetylases. So far, seven sirtuin genes (SIRTS 1-7) have been identified and characterized in mammals and also known to occur in bacteria and eukaryotes. SIRTs are involved in various biological processes including endocrine system, apoptosis, aging and longevity, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, inflammation, etc. Among them, the best characterized one is SIRT1. Actually, small molecules seem to be the most effective SIRT modulators. Flavonoids have been reported to possess many positive effects favrable for human health, while a relatively less research has been reported so far on their funcions as SIRT modulation mechanisms. In this regard, we herein aimed to focus on modulatory effects of flavonoids on SIRTs as the most common secondary metabolites in natural products. Our literature survey covering the years of 2006-2021 pointed out that flavonoids frequently interact with SIRT1 and SIRT3 followed by SIRT6. It can be also concluded that some popular flavonoid derivatives, e.g. resveratrol, quercetin, and catechin derivatives came forward in terms of SIRT modulation.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) features include progressive hardening and reduced elasticity of arteries. AS is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality. An increasing amount of evidence showed that epigenetic modifications on genes serve are a main cause of several diseases, including AS. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) promote the deacetylation at lysine residues, thereby condensing the chromatin structures and further inhibiting the transcription of downstream genes. HDACs widely affect various physiological and pathological processes through transcriptional regulation or deacetylation of other non-histone proteins. In recent years, the role of HDACs in vascular systems has been revealed, and their effects on atherosclerosis have been widely reported. In this review, we discuss the members of HDACs in vascular systems, determine the diverse roles of HDACs in AS, and reveal the effects of HDAC inhibitors on AS progression. We provide new insights into the potential of HDAC inhibitors as drugs for AS treatment.

Abstract
The beneficial effects of caloric restriction (CR) against cardiac aging and for prevention of cardiovascular diseases are numerous. However, to our knowledge, there is no scientific evidence about how a high-calorie diet (HCD) background influences the mechanisms underlying CR in whole heart tissue (WHT) in experimental murine models. In the current study, CR-treated mice with different alimentary backgrounds were subjected to transthoracic echocardiographic measurements. WHT was then analyzed to determine cardiac energetics, telomerase activity, the expression of energy-sensing networks, tissue-specific adiponectin, and cardiac precursor/cardiac stem cell markers. Animals with a balanced diet consumption before CR presented marked cardiac remodeling with improved ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS), enhanced OXPHOS complex I, III, and IV, and CKMT2 enzymatic activity. Mice fed an HCD before CR presented moderate changes in cardiac geometry with diminished EF and FS values, but improved OXPHOS complex IV and CKMT2 activity. Differences in cardiac remodeling, left ventricular systolic/diastolic performance, and mitochondrial energetics, found in the CR-treated mice with contrasting alimentary backgrounds, were corroborated by inconsistencies in the expression of mitochondrial-biogenesis-related markers and associated regulatory networks. In particular, disruption of eNOS and AMPK -PGC-1α-mTOR-related axes. The impact of a past habit of caloric overload on the effects of CR in the WHT is a scarcely explored subject that requires deeper study in combination with analyses of other tissues and organs at higher levels of organization within the organ system. Such research will eventually lead to the development of preventative and therapeutic strategies to promote health and longevity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The intent of this paper is to review the data regarding the multipotential effects of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT 2) inhibitors, their cardiovascular protective effects, and their mechanism of action. AREAS COVERED The SGLT2 inhibitors exert their beneficial antidiabetic and cardioprotective effects through increased glucose excretion from the kidneys, blood pressure and weight lowering, vasodilation and other potential beneficial effects. They have been used for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) as well as in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), coronary artery disease (CAD),and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). In order to get a better understanding of their mechanism of action for their multiple cardiovascular protective effects, a Medline search of the English language literature was conducted between 2015 and February 2022 and 46 pertinent papers were selected. EXPERT OPINION The analysis of data clearly demonstrated that the use of the SGLT2 inhibitors besides their antidiabetic effects, provide additional protection against CVD, CAD, and HFrEF and HFpEF, and death, but not stroke, in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Therefore, they should be preferably used for the treatment of patients with T2DM with preexisting CVD, CAD, and HFrEF and HFpEF.

J Biochem Mol Toxicol 2022; 36:e23047. [PMID: 35297126 DOI: 10.1002/jbt.23047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2021] [Revised: 01/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT1-7) are distinct histone deacetylases (HDACs) whose activity is determined by cellular metabolic status andnicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) levels. HDACs of class III are the members of the SIRT's protein family. SIRTs are the enzymes that modulate mitochondrial activity and energy metabolism. SIRTs have been linked to a number of clinical and physiological operations, such as energy responses to low-calorie availability, aging, stress resistance, inflammation, and apoptosis. Mammalian SIRT2 orthologs have been identified as SIRT1-7 that are found in several subcellular sections, including the cytoplasm (SIRT1, 2), mitochondrial matrix (SIRT3, 4, 5), and the core (SIRT1, 2, 6, 7). For their deacetylase or ADP-ribosyl transferase action, all SIRTs require NAD+ and are linked to cellular energy levels. Evolutionarily, SIRT1 is related to yeast's SIRT2 as well as received primary attention in the circulatory system. An endogenous protein, SIRT1 is involved in the development of heart failure and plays a key role in cell death and survival. SIRT2 downregulation protects against ischemic-reperfusion damage. Increase in human longevity is caused by an increase in SIRT3 expression. Cardiomyocytes are also protected by SIRT3 from oxidative damage and aging, as well as suppressing cardiac hypertrophy. SIRT4 and SIRT5 perform their roles in the heart. SIRT6 has also been linked to a reduction in heart hypertrophy. SIRT7 is known to be involved in the regulation of stress responses and apoptosis in the heart.

Abstract
PURPOSE Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and metabolic complications often related to obesity, such as insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Sirtuins (SIRTs) are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases, which modulate protein post-translational modifications (PTMs), gene transcription, increase repairing activities of DNA, and regulate metabolic processes. The aim of our study was to measure the serum levels of SIRTs 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7, and evaluate correlations between SIRTs levels and cardiovascular risk factors in women with PCOS. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study included 54 women with PCOS and 33 healthy volunteers. Concentrations of SIRTs were measured by ELISA technique. RESULTS Mean serum levels of SIRTs did not differ significantly between PCOS and controls. SIRTs 1, 2, and 6 positively correlated with HDL, while SIRTs 2 and 6 negatively correlated with LDL cholesterol. Negative correlation between SIRT 3 and HOMA-IR and negative correlations of SIRT 1 and 2 with insulin 120' in oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were demonstrated. A positive correlation between BMI and SIRT 7 concentration, and a positive correlation between body weight and SIRT 7 concentration were verified in the study group. The observed correlations between concentrations of SIRTs and metabolic parameters may indicate the involvement of these factors in the development of cardiometabolic complications. CONCLUSIONS The results may indicate the involvement of SIRTs in the development of cardiometabolic complications. However, additional studies are required to validate this observation.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease seriously endangering human health, whose occurrence and development is related to many factors. Pyroptosis is a recently identified novel programmed cell death associated with an inflammatory response and involved in the formation and progression of AS by activating different signaling pathways. Protein modifications of the sirtuin family and microRNAs (miRNAs) can directly or indirectly affect pyroptosis-related molecules. It is important to link atherosclerosis, thermogenesis and molecular modifications. This article will systematically review the molecular pathways of pyroptosis in AS, which can provide a new perspective for AS prevention and treatment.

Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12020182. [PMID: 35207470 PMCID: PMC8878829 DOI: 10.3390/life12020182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2021] [Revised: 01/07/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Lipotoxicity causes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to cell apoptosis. Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) regulates gene transcription and cellular metabolism. In this study, we investigated the role of Sirt1 in palmitate-induced ER stress. Methods: Both H9c2 myoblasts and heart-specific Sirt1 knockout mice fed a palmitate-enriched high-fat diet were used. Results: The high-fat diet induced C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) expression in both Sirt1 knockout mice and controls. The Sirt1 knockout mice showed higher CHOP and ATF4 expression compared to those in the control. Palmitic acid (PA) induced ATF4 and CHOP expression in H9c2 cells. PA-treated H9c2 cells showed decreased cytosolic NAD+/NADH alongside reduced Sirt1′s activity. The H9c2 cells showed increased ATF4 and CHOP expression when transfected with plasmid encoding dominant negative mutant Sirt1. Sirt1 activator SRT1720 did not affect CHOP and ATF4 expression. Although SRT1720 enhanced the nuclear translocation of ATF4, the extent of the binding of ATF4 to the CHOP promoter did not increase in PA treated-H9c2 cells. Conclusion: PA-induced ER stress is mediated through the upregulation of ATF4 and CHOP. Cytosolic NAD+ concentration is diminished by PA-induced ER stress, leading to decreased Sirt1 activity. The Sirt1 activator SRT1720 promotes the nuclear translocation of ATF4 in PA-treated H9c2 cells.
