CNS Neurosci Ther 2024; 30:e14878. [PMID: 39097923 PMCID: PMC11298204 DOI: 10.1111/cns.14878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND This work elucidated the effect of honokiol (HKL) on hippocampal neuronal mitochondrial function in Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS APP/PS1 mice were used as AD mice models and exposed to HKL and 3-TYP. Morris water maze experiment was performed to appraise cognitive performance of mice. Hippocampal Aβ+ plaque deposition and neuronal survival was evaluated by immunohistochemistry and Nissl staining. Hippocampal neurons were dissociated from C57BL/6 mouse embryos. Hippocampal neuronal AD model was constructed by Aβ oligomers induction and treated with HKL, CsA and 3-TYP. Neuronal viability and apoptosis were detected by cell counting kit-8 assay and TUNEL staining. mRFP-eGFP-LC3 assay, MitoSOX Red, dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate, and JC-1 staining were performed to monitor neuronal autophagosomes, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), neuronal ROS, and mitochondrial membrane potential. Autophagy-related proteins were detected by Western blot. RESULTS In AD mice, HKL improved cognitive function, relieved hippocampal Aβ1-42 plaque deposition, promoted hippocampal neuron survival, and activated hippocampal SIRT3 expression and mitochondrial autophagy. These effects of HKL on AD mice were abolished by 3-TYP treatment. In hippocampal neuronal AD model, HKL increased neuronal activity, attenuated neuronal apoptosis and Aβ aggregation, activated SIRT3 and mitochondrial autophagy, reduced mitochondrial and neuronal ROS, and elevated mitochondrial membrane potential. CsA treatment and 3-TYP treatment abrogated the protection of HKL on hippocampal neuronal AD model. The promotion of mitochondrial autophagy by HKL in hippocampal neuronal AD model was counteracted by 3-TYP. CONCLUSIONS HKL activates SIRT3-mediated mitochondrial autophagy to mitigate hippocampal neuronal damage in AD. HKL may be effective in treating AD.

Gene Expression Profiling Reveals Fundamental Sex-Specific Differences in SIRT3-Mediated Redox and Metabolic Signaling in Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:3868. [PMID: 38612678 PMCID: PMC11012119 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25073868] [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: 02/27/2024] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Sirt-3 is an important regulator of mitochondrial function and cellular energy homeostasis, whose function is associated with aging and various pathologies such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, cardiovascular diseases, and cancers. Many of these conditions show differences in incidence, onset, and progression between the sexes. In search of hormone-independent, sex-specific roles of Sirt-3, we performed mRNA sequencing in male and female Sirt-3 WT and KO mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). The aim of this study was to investigate the sex-specific cellular responses to the loss of Sirt-3. By comparing WT and KO MEF of both sexes, the differences in global gene expression patterns as well as in metabolic and stress responses associated with the loss of Sirt-3 have been elucidated. Significant differences in the activities of basal metabolic pathways were found both between genotypes and between sexes. In-depth pathway analysis of metabolic pathways revealed several important sex-specific phenomena. Male cells mount an adaptive Hif-1a response, shifting their metabolism toward glycolysis and energy production from fatty acids. Furthermore, the loss of Sirt-3 in male MEFs leads to mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Since Sirt-3 knock-out is permanent, male cells are forced to function in a state of persistent oxidative and metabolic stress. Female MEFs are able to at least partially compensate for the loss of Sirt-3 by a higher expression of antioxidant enzymes. The activation of neither Hif-1a, mitochondrial stress response, nor oxidative stress response was observed in female cells lacking Sirt-3. These findings emphasize the sex-specific role of Sirt-3, which should be considered in future research.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative condition causing cognitive decline. Oxidative stress (OS) is believed to contribute to neuronal death and dysfunction in AD. We conducted a study to identify differentially expressed OS-related genes (DEOSGs) through bioinformatics analysis and experimental validation, aiming to develop a diagnostic model for AD. We analyzed the GSE33000 dataset to identify OS regulator expression profiles and create molecular clusters (C1 and C2) associated with immune cell infiltration using 310 AD samples. Cluster analysis revealed significant heterogeneity in immune infiltration. The 'WGCNA' algorithm identified cluster-specific and disease-specific differentially expressed genes (DGEs). Four machine learning models (random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), generalized linear model (GLM) and extreme gradient boosting (XGB)) were compared, with GLM performing the best (AUC = 0.812). Five DEOSGs (NFKBIA, PLCE1, CLIC1, SLCO4A1, TRAF3IP2) were identified based on the GLM model. AD subtype prediction accuracy was validated using nomograms and calibration curves. External datasets (GSE122063 and GSE106241) confirmed the expression levels and clinical significance of important genes. Experimental validation through RT-qPCR showed increased expression of NFKBIA, CLIC1, SLCO4A1, TRAF3IP2, and decreased expression of PLCE1 in the temporal cortex of AD mice. This study provides insights for AD research and treatment, particularly focusing on the five model-related DEOSGs.

Nutrients 2023; 15:2973.

Abstract
Oxidative stress has been identified as a major cause of cellular injury in a variety of neurodegenerative disorders. This study aimed to investigate the cytoprotective effects of piceatannol on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced pheochromocytoma-12 (PC-12) cell damage and explore the underlying mechanisms. Our findings indicated that piceatannol pre-treatment significantly attenuated H2O2-induced PC-12 cell death. Furthermore, piceatannol effectively improved mitochondrial content and mitochondrial function, including enhancing mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) elimination capacity and increasing mitochondrial transcription factor (TFAM), peroxisome-proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) and mitochondria Complex IV expression. Meanwhile, piceatannol treatment inhibited mitochondria-mediated autophagy as demonstrated by restoring mitochondrial membrane potential, reducing autophagosome formation and light chain 3B II/I (LC3B II/I) and autophagy-related protein 5 (ATG5) expression level. The protein expression level of SIRT3 was significantly increased by piceatannol in a concentration-dependent manner. However, the cytoprotective effect of piceatannol was dramatically abolished by sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) inhibitor, 3-(1H-1,2,3-Triazol-4-yl) pyridine (3-TYP), which led to an exacerbated mitochondrial dysfunction and autophagy in PC-12 cells under oxidative stress. In addition, the autophagy activator (rapamycin) abrogated the protective effects of piceatannol on PC-12 cell death. These findings demonstrated that piceatannol could alleviate PC-12 cell oxidative damage and mitochondrial dysfunction by inhibiting autophagy via the SIRT3 pathway.

Abstract
An NAD+-dependent deacetylase called Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) is involved in the metabolic processes of the mitochondria, including energy generation, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, and oxidative stress. Sirt3 activation can slow down or prevent mitochondrial dysfunction in response to neurodegenerative disorders, demonstrating a strong neuroprotective impact. The mechanism of Sirt3 in neurodegenerative illnesses has been elucidated over time; it is essential for neuron, astrocyte, and microglial function, and its primary regulatory factors include antiapoptosis, oxidative stress, and the maintenance of metabolic homeostasis. Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and multiple sclerosis (MS), may benefit from a thorough and in-depth investigation of Sirt3. In this review, we primarily cover Sirt3's role and its regulation in the nerve cells and the connection between Sirt3 and neurodegenerative disorders.

Salidroside reduces neuropathology in Alzheimer’s disease models by targeting NRF2/SIRT3 pathway. Cell Biosci 2022; 12:180.

Abstract
Background Neurite dystrophy is a pathologic hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, drug discovery targeting neurite protection in AD remains largely unexplored. Methods Aβ-induced neurite and mitochondrial damage assays were used to evaluate Aβ toxicity and the neuroprotective efficacy of a natural compound salidroside (SAL). The 5×FAD transgenic mouse model of AD was used to study the neuroprotective function of SAL. To verify the direct target of SAL, we used surface plasmon resonance and cellular thermal shift assays to analyze the drug-protein interaction. Results SAL ameliorates Aβ-mediated neurite damage in cell culture. We further reveal that SAL represses mitochondrial damage in neurites by promoting mitophagy and maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis, dependent on an NAD-dependent deacetylase SIRT3. In AD mice, SAL protects neurite morphology, mitigates Aβ pathology, and improves cognitive function, which are all SIRT3-dependent. Notably, SAL directly binds to transcription factor NRF2, inhibits its degradation by blocking its interaction with KEAP1 ubiquitin ligase, and then advances NRF2-mediated SIRT3 transcription. Conclusions Overall, we demonstrate that SAL, a potential anti-aging drug candidate, attenuates AD pathology by targeting NRF2/SIRT3 pathway for mitochondrial and neurite protection. Drug discovery strategies focusing on SAL may thus provide promising therapeutics for AD.

Spinal Sirtuin 3 Contributes to Electroacupuncture Analgesia in Mice with Chronic Constriction Injury–Induced Neuropathic Pain. Neuromodulation 2022; 26:563-576. [PMID: 36030144 DOI: 10.1016/j.neurom.2022.07.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Revised: 06/29/2022] [Accepted: 07/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Electroacupuncture (EA) is a traditional Chinese therapeutic technique that has a beneficial effect on neuropathic pain; however, the specific mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we investigated whether EA inhibits spinal Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKIIα) phosphorylation through Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) protein, thus relieving neuropathic pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS We used wild-type and SIRT3 knockout (SIRT3-/-) mice and used chronic constriction injury (CCI) as a pain model. We performed Western blotting, immunostaining, von Frey, and Hargreaves tests to gather biochemical and behavioral data. Downregulation and overexpression and spinal SIRT3 protein were achieved by intraspinal injection of SIRT3 small interfering RNA and intraspinal injection of lentivirus-SIRT3. To test the hypothesis that CaMKIIα signaling was involved in the analgesic effects of EA, we expressed CaMKIIα-specific designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADDs) in the spinal dorsal horn (SDH) of mice. RESULTS These results showed that the mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia induced by CCI was related to the decreased spinal SIRT3 expression in the SDH of mice. A significant reduction of mechanical and thermal thresholds was found in the SIRT3-/- mice. SIRT3 overexpression or EA treatment alleviated CCI-induced neuropathic pain and prevented the spinal CaMKIIα phosphorylation. Most importantly, EA increased the expression of spinal SIRT3 protein in the SDH. Downregulation of spinal SIRT3 or CaMKIIα Gq-DREADD activation inhibited the regulatory effect of EA on neuropathic pain. CONCLUSION Our results showed that CaMKIIα phosphorylation was inhibited by spinal SIRT3 in neuropathic pain and that EA attenuated CCI-induced neuropathic pain mainly by upregulating spinal SIRT3 expression in the SDH of mice.
