Abstract
CONTEXT Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe condition with limited effective therapeutics; nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) has been reported to exert anti-inflammatory activities. OBJECTIVE This study explores the potential mechanisms by which NMN ameliorates sepsis-induced ALI in vivo and in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cultured MH-S cells and a murine model were used to evaluate the effect of NMN on sepsis-induced ALI. MH-S cells were stimulated with LPS (1 μg/mL) and NMN (500 μM) for 12 h grouping as control, LPS, and LPS + NMN. Cell viability, apoptotic status, and M1/2 macrophage-related markers were detected. The mice were pretreated intraperitoneally with NMN (500 mg/kg) and/or EX-527 (5 mg/kg) 1 h before LPS injection and randomized into 7 groups (n = 8): control, LPS, LPS + NMN, NMN, LPS + NMN + EX-527 (a SIRT1 inhibitor), LPS + EX-527, and EX-527. After 12 h, lung histopathology, W/D ratio, MPO activity, NAD+ and ATP levels, M1/2 macrophage-related markers, and expression of the SIRT1/NF-κB pathway were detected. RESULTS In MH-S cells, NMN significantly decreased the apoptotic rate from 12.25% to 5.74%. In septic mice, NMN improved the typical pathologic findings in lungs and reduced W/D ratio and MPO activity, but increased NAD+ and ATP levels. Additionally, NMN suppressed M1 but promoted M2 polarization, and upregulated the expression of SIRT1, with inhibition of NF-κB-p65 acetylation and phosphorylation. Furthermore, inhibition of SIRT1 reversed the effects of NMN-induced M2 macrophage polarization. CONCLUSIONS NMN protects against sepsis-induced ALI by promoting M2 macrophage polarization via the SIRT1/NF-κB pathway, it might be an effective strategy for preventing or treating sepsis-induced ALI.

Caloric and time restriction diets improve acute kidney injury in experimental menopausal rats: role of silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 and transforming growth factor beta 1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Estrogen has a protective impact on acute kidney injury (AKI); moreover, reducing the daily intake of calories impedes developing diseases. The present study aimed to determine the effects of calorie restriction (CR) and time restriction (TR) diets on the expression of silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1), transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), and other indicators in the presence and absence of ovaries in AKI female rats. METHODS The female rats were divided into two groups, ovariectomized (OVX) and sham, and were placed on CR and TR diets for eight weeks; afterward, AKI was induced by injecting glycerol, and kidney injury indicators and biochemical parameters were measured before and after AKI. RESULTS After AKI, the levels of urine albumin excretion rate, urea, and creatinine in serum, and TGF-β1 increased, while creatinine clearance and SIRT1 decreased in kidney tissue. CR improved kidney indicators and caused a reduction in TGF-β1 and an increase in SIRT1 in ovary-intact rats. Moreover, CR prevented total antioxidant capacity (TAC) decrease and malondialdehyde (MDA) increase resulting from AKI. Before AKI, an increase in body weight, fasting blood sugar (FBS), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglyceride (TG), and total cholesterol (TC), and a decrease in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were observed in OVX rats compared to sham rats, but CR prevented these changes. The effects of TR were similar to those of CR in all indicators except for TGF-β1, SIRT1, urea, creatinine, and albumin. CONCLUSION The present study indicated that CR is more effective than TR in preventing AKI, probably by increasing SIRT1 and decreasing TGF-β1 in ovary-intact animals.

[PMID: 37949422 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2023.110797] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2023] [Revised: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
In light of the current industrial evolution, exposure to cadmium has become a significant public health concern. Cadmium accumulates in the renal tubular cells and causes nephrotoxicity largely through disruption of the redox homeostasis, induction of inflammation, and suppression of the histone deacetylase SIRT1 expression. The current work aimed at exploring the protective capability of bergenin, a naturally-occurring methyl gallic acid derivative, against the cadmium-evoked nephrotoxicity. Male Wistar rats were treated either with cadmium alone or with cadmium and bergenin for a 7-day experimental period followed by collection of kidney and blood specimens that were subjected to biochemical, molecular, and histological investigations. The results revealed the ability of bergenin to improve the renal functions in the cadmium-intoxicated rats as evidenced by increased glomerular filtration rate, and decreased serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen. Equally important, bergenin reduced the renal tissue injury and enhanced its redox homeostasis as indicated by decreased protein expression of the kidney injury marker KIM-1, reduced lipid peroxidation, and improved antioxidant potential and histopathological picture of the renal tissues. Mechanistically, bergenin reduced the renal tissue cadmium content, markedly up-regulated protein expression of SIRT1 that regulates inflammation and the redox status of the renal tissues. Additionally, it improved the expression of the major antioxidant transcription factor Nrf2 and its responsive gene products heoxygenase-1 and NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 in the cadmium-intoxicated rats. In the same context, bergenin down-regulated the acetylation and the nuclear translocation of the inflammatory transcription factor NF-κB and reduced levels of its responsive gene products TNF-α and IL-1β, as well as the activity of the inflammatory cell infiltration biomarker myeloperoxidase. Collectively, the current study underscores the ameliorating activity of bergenin against the cadmium-evoked nephrotoxicity and highlights modulation of SIRT1, Nrf2, and NF-κB signaling as potential underlining molecular mechanisms.

Secreted Cytokines within the Urine of AKI Patients Modulate TP53 and SIRT1 Levels in a Human Podocyte Cell Model. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24098228.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major kidney disease with a poor clinical outcome. It is a common complication, with an incidence of 10-15% of patients admitted to hospital. This rate even increases for patients who are admitted to the intensive care unit, with an incidence of >50%. AKI is characterized by a rapid increase in serum creatinine, decrease in urine output, or both. The associated symptoms include feeling sick or being sick, diarrhoea, dehydration, decreased urine output (although occasionally the urine output remains normal), fluid retention causing swelling in the legs or ankles, shortness of breath, fatigue and nausea. However, sometimes acute kidney injury causes no signs or symptoms and is detected by lab tests. Therefore, the identification of cytokines for the early detection and diagnosis of AKI is highly desirable, as their application might enable the prevention of the progression from AKI to chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this study, we analysed the secretome of the urine of an AKI patient cohort by employing a kidney-biomarker cytokine assay. Based on these results, we suggest ADIPOQ, EGF and SERPIN3A as potential cytokines that might be able to detect AKI as early as 24 h post-surgery. For the later stages, as common cytokines for the detection of AKI in both male and female patients, we suggest VEGF, SERPIN3A, TNFSF12, ANPEP, CXCL1, REN, CLU and PLAU. These cytokines in combination might present a robust strategy for identifying the development of AKI as early as 24 h or 72 h post-surgery. Furthermore, we evaluated the effect of patient and healthy urine on human podocyte cells. We conclude that cytokines abundant in the urine of AKI patients trigger processes that are needed to repair the damaged nephron and activate TP53 and SIRT1 to maintain the balance between proliferation, angiogenesis, and cell cycle arrest.

SerpinA3K Deficiency Reduces Oxidative Stress in Acute Kidney Injury. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24097815. [PMID: 37175519 PMCID: PMC10177890 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24097815] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
We previously showed that SerpinA3K is present in urine from rats and humans with acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the specific role of SerpinA3K during renal pathophysiology is unknown. To begin to understand the role of SerpinA3K on AKI, SerpinA3K-deficient (KOSA3) mice were studied 24 h after inducing ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) and compared to wild type (WT) mice. Four groups were studied: WT+S, WT+IR, KOSA3+S, and KOSA3+IR. As expected, I/R increased serum creatinine and BUN, with a GFR reduction in both genotypes; however, renal dysfunction was ameliorated in the KOSA3+IR group. Interestingly, the increase in UH2O2 induced by I/R was not equally seen in the KOSA3+IR group, an effect that was associated with the preservation of antioxidant enzymes' mRNA levels. Additionally, FOXO3 expression was initially greater in the KOSA3 than in the WT group. Moreover, the increase in BAX protein level and the decrease in Hif1a and Vegfa induced by I/R were not observed in the KOSA3+IR group, suggesting that these animals have better cellular responses to hypoxic injury. Our findings suggest that SerpinA3K is involved in the renal oxidant response, HIF1α/VEGF pathway, and cell apoptosis.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (oxidized form, NAD+) is a critical coenzyme, with functions ranging from redox reactions and energy metabolism in mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation to being a central player in multiple cellular signaling pathways, organ resilience, health, and longevity. Many of its cellular functions are executed via serving as a co-substrate for sirtuins (SIRTs), poly (ADP-ribose) polymerases (PARPs), and CD38. Kidney damage and diseases are common in the general population, especially in elderly persons and diabetic patients. While NAD+ is reduced in acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), mounting evidence indicates that NAD+ augmentation is beneficial to AKI, although conflicting results exist for cases of CKD. Here, we review recent progress in the field of NAD+, mainly focusing on compromised NAD+ levels in AKI and its effect on essential cellular pathways, such as mitochondrial dysfunction, compromised autophagy, and low expression of the aging biomarker αKlotho (Klotho) in the kidney. We also review the compromised NAD+ levels in renal fibrosis and senescence cells in the case of CKD. As there is an urgent need for more effective treatments for patients with injured kidneys, further studies on NAD+ in relation to AKI/CKD may shed light on novel therapeutics.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 101:154122. [PMID: 35490494 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.154122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 03/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/17/2022] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI), a common multidisciplinary diagnostic clinical critical illness, eventually causes end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Although many clinical measures have been taken to prevent or treat AKI, high morbidity and death rates were recorded. Therefore, in-depth pathogenesis study and search for new therapeutic targets are in demand. Interestingly, the suirtuins family showed a significant protective effect in AKI. Sirtuins (SIRT1-7) is a family of seven proteins with NAD+-dependent type III histone deacetylase activity. Sirtuins family members were involved by AKI, and regulation of sirtuins activities significantly improved AKI-induced renal injury. Therefore, the therapeutic role and molecular mechanisms of the sirtuins family in AKI has important research implications for clinical applications or basic research. PURPOSE This review summarizes recent advances in the roles and functions of the sirtuins family, discusses their therapeutic effects on AKI and related molecular mechanisms, and the mechanisms of action of small molecule specific activators or inhibitors sirtuins in the prevention and treatment of AKI were discussed. METHODS The data in this review were retrieved from various scientific databases (PubMed, Google scholar, Science Direct, and Web of Science), till December 2021. The keywords were used as follows: "Sirtuins", "Acute kidney injury", "AKI", "Sirtuins modulators" and "Histone deacetylation". The retrieved data followed PRISMA criteria (preferred reporting items for systematic review). RESULTS Growing evidence indicates that members of the sirtuins family regulate the development and progression of different renal diseases, including AKI, through anti-inflammation, antioxidation, anti-apoptotic, and maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis. The molecular mechanism of Sirtuins family on AKI mainly regulated NF-κB, JNK/ERK, and AMPK/mTOR signaling pathways, upregulated the expression of PGC-1α, HO-1, NRF2, Bcl-2, OPA1, and AMPK, and downregulated the expression of NRLP3, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, ROS, MFF, Drp1, Bax, ERK, and mTOR. In addition, the active ingredients of herbs (resveratrol, thujaplicins, huperzine, and curcumin) could activate the activity of SIRT1 or SIRT3, thereby improving AKI. Meanwhile, the synthetic Sirtuins inhibitor (AK-1) inhibited SIRT2 activity, thus alleviating AKI. In the future, more specific modulators will remain needed to enhance the clinical therapeutic role of the Sirtuins family in AKI. CONCLUSION The sirtuins family is a promising type III histone deacetylase for AKI treatment. This review will provide insight into sirtuins family's therapeutic role in AKI and promote the clinical use of sirtuins modulators in AKI.

Abstract
Objectives Lifestyle and eating habits affect the health and function of the body's organs, including the kidneys. The current study was carried out to determine the effects of two types of diet programs, including time restriction (TR) and calorie restriction (CR) on the histopathological changes and apoptotic molecules during acute kidney injury (AKI) in postmenopausal rats. Materials and Methods In this study the female rats were divided into two groups of ovariectomized (OVX) and ovary-intact (sham), then they were placed on TR and CR diets for 8 weeks; afterward, AKI was induced by injection of glycerol. Functional indices, histopathological changes, Bax, and Bcl2 were measured before and after AKI. Results After AKI, creatinine, serum urea, urinary albumin excretion, kidney tissue Bax, and Bax/Bcl2 ratio increased, while glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and kidney tissue Bcl2 decreased compared with before AKI. Histopathological indices (inflammation, cellular necrosis, cell vacuolization, tubular dilatation, intratubular cast, and congestion) also confirmed renal injury. TR and CR diets improved renal injury indices and prevented an increase in the Bax/Bcl2 ratio. However, in some indices, the effects of two diets on OVX animals were not observed. In addition, none of the diets could decrease kidney weight/body weight ratio (KW/BW). The histopathological finding also showed improvement of renal status in both groups, especially in the CR diet. Conclusion The results indicated that TR and CR diets had renoprotective effects against AKI by reducing the Bax/Bcl2 ratio and improving apoptosis. The effects of CR were more than TR.

Sirtuin 7 Deficiency Reduces Inflammation and Tubular Damage Induced by an Episode of Acute Kidney Injury. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23052573.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a public health problem worldwide. Sirtuins are a family of seven NAD+-dependent deacylases, Overexpression of Sirtuin 1, 3, and 5 protect against AKI. However, the role of Sirtuin 7 (Sirt7) in AKI is not known. Here, we analyzed how Sirt7 deficient mice (KO-Sirt7) were affected by AKI. As expected, wild-type and Sirt7 heterozygotes mice that underwent renal ischemia/reperfusion (IR) exhibited the characteristic hallmarks of AKI: renal dysfunction, tubular damage, albuminuria, increased oxidative stress, and renal inflammation. In contrast, the KO-Sirt7+IR mice were protected from AKI, exhibiting lesser albuminuria and reduction in urinary biomarkers of tubular damage, despite similar renal dysfunction. The renoprotection in the Sirt7-KO+IR group was associated with reduced kidney weight, minor expression of inflammatory cytokines and less renal infiltration of inflammatory cells. This anti-inflammatory effect was related to diminished p65 expression and in its active phosphorylation, as well as by a reduction in p65 nuclear translocation. Sirt7 deficient mice are protected from AKI, suggesting that this histone deacetylase promotes tubular damage and renal inflammation. Therefore, our findings indicate that Sirt7 inhibitors may be an attractive therapeutic target to reduce NFκB signaling.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a substantial worldwide public health concern with no specific and effective therapies in clinic. NAD+ is a pivotal determinant of cellular energy metabolism involved in the progression of AKI; however, its mechanism in kidney injury remains poorly understood. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is an NAD+‐dependent deacetylase associated with renal protection and acute stress resistance. In this study, we have investigated the role of NAD+ in AKI and the potential mechanism(s) involved in its renoprotective effect. NAD+ was notably decreased and negatively correlated with kidney dysfunction in AKI, restoring NAD+ with NMN significantly ameliorates LPS‐induced oxidative stress and apoptosis and attenuates renal damage. We also found that the protection of NAD+ is associated with SIRT1 expressions and performs in a SIRT1‐dependent manner. Inhibition of SIRT1 blunted the protective effect of NAD+ and up‐regulated the activity of glycogen synthase kinase‐3β (GSK‐3β) that was concomitant with mitigated Nrf2 nuclear accumulation, thereby exacerbates AKI. These findings suggest that NAD+/SIRT1/GSK‐3β/Nrf2 axis is an important mechanism that can protect against AKI which might be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of AKI.
