Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Compared to other types of lung cancer, small cell lung cancer (SCLC) exhibits aggressive characteristics that promote drug resistance. Despite platinum-etoposide chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy being the current standard treatment, the rapid development of drug resistance has led to unsatisfactory clinical outcomes. This review focuses on the mechanisms contributing to the chemotherapy resistance phenotype in SCLC, such as increased intra-tumoral heterogeneity, alterations in the tumor microenvironment, changes in cellular metabolism, and dysregulation of apoptotic pathways. A comprehensive understanding of these drug resistance mechanisms in SCLC is imperative for ushering in a new era in cancer research, which will promise revolutionary advancements in cancer diagnosis and treatment methodologies.

Abstract
Bladder cancer (BC) is a highly frequent neoplasm in correlation with significant rate of morbidity, mortality, and cost. The onset of BC is predominantly triggered by environmental and/or occupational exposures to carcinogens, such as tobacco. There are two distinct pathways by which BC can be developed, including non-muscle-invasive papillary tumors (NMIBC) and non-papillary (or solid) muscle-invasive tumors (MIBC). The Cancer Genome Atlas project has further recognized key genetic drivers of MIBC along with its subtypes with particular properties and therapeutic responses; nonetheless, NMIBC is the predominant BC presentation among the suffering individuals. Radical cystoprostatectomy, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy have been verified to be the common therapeutic interventions in metastatic tumors, among which chemotherapeutics are more conventionally utilized. Although multiple chemo drugs have been broadly administered for BC treatment, cisplatin is reportedly the most effective chemo drug against the corresponding malignancy. Notwithstanding, tumor recurrence is usually occurred following the consumption of cisplatin regimens, particularly due to the progression of chemo-resistant trait. In this framework, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), as abundant RNA transcripts arise from the human genome, are introduced to serve as crucial contributors to tumor expansion and cisplatin chemo-resistance in bladder neoplasm. In the current review, we first investigated the best-known ncRNAs, i.e. microRNAs (miRNAs), long ncRNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), correlated with cisplatin chemo-resistance in BC cells and tissues. We noticed that these ncRNAs could mediate the BC-related cisplatin-resistant phenotype through diverse cellular processes and signaling mechanisms, reviewed here. Eventually, diagnostic and prognostic potential of ncRNAs, as well as their therapeutic capabilities were highlighted in regard to BC management.

Abstract
A wealth of evidence has emerged that there is an association between aging, senescence and tumorigenesis. Senescence, a biological process by which cells cease to divide and enter a status of permanent cell cycle arrest, contributes to aging and aging-related diseases, including cancer. Aging populations have the higher incidence of cancer due to a lifetime of exposure to cancer-causing agents, reduction of repairing DNA damage, accumulated genetic mutations, and decreased immune system efficiency. Cancer patients undergoing cytotoxic therapies, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy, accelerate aging. There is growing evidence that p53/MDM2 (murine double minute 2) axis is critically involved in regulation of aging, senescence and oncogenesis. Therefore, in this review, we describe the functions and mechanisms of p53/MDM2-mediated senescence, aging and carcinogenesis. Moreover, we highlight the small molecular inhibitors, natural compounds and PROTACs (proteolysis targeting chimeras) that target p53/MDM2 pathway to influence aging and cancer. Modification of p53/MDM2 could be a potential strategy for treatment of aging, senescence and tumorigenesis.

[PMID: 38744970 PMCID: PMC11169469 DOI: 10.1038/s44319-024-00152-3] [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: 10/05/2023] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
The multifunctional RNA-binding protein hnRNPL is implicated in antibody class switching but its broader function in B cells is unknown. Here, we show that hnRNPL is essential for B cell activation, germinal center formation, and antibody responses. Upon activation, hnRNPL-deficient B cells show proliferation defects and increased apoptosis. Comparative analysis of RNA-seq data from activated B cells and another eight hnRNPL-depleted cell types reveals common effects on MYC and E2F transcriptional programs required for proliferation. Notably, while individual gene expression changes are cell type specific, several alternative splicing events affecting histone modifiers like KDM6A and SIRT1, are conserved across cell types. Moreover, hnRNPL-deficient B cells show global changes in H3K27me3 and H3K9ac. Epigenetic dysregulation after hnRNPL loss could underlie differential gene expression and upregulation of lncRNAs, and explain common and cell type-specific phenotypes, such as dysfunctional mitochondria and ROS overproduction in mouse B cells. Thus, hnRNPL is essential for the resting-to-activated B cell transition by regulating transcriptional programs and metabolism, at least in part through the alternative splicing of several histone modifiers.

Abstract
The p53 protein is the master regulator of cellular integrity, primarily due to its tumor-suppressing functions. Approximately half of all human cancers carry mutations in the TP53 gene, which not only abrogate the tumor-suppressive functions but also confer p53 mutant proteins with oncogenic potential. The latter is achieved through so-called gain-of-function (GOF) mutations that promote cancer progression, metastasis, and therapy resistance by deregulating transcriptional networks, signaling pathways, metabolism, immune surveillance, and cellular compositions of the microenvironment. Despite recent progress in understanding the complexity of mutp53 in neoplastic development, the exact mechanisms of how mutp53 contributes to cancer development and how they escape proteasomal and lysosomal degradation remain only partially understood. In this review, we address recent findings in the field of oncogenic functions of mutp53 specifically regarding, but not limited to, its implications in metabolic pathways, the secretome of cancer cells, the cancer microenvironment, and the regulating scenarios of the aberrant proteasomal degradation. By analyzing proteasomal and lysosomal protein degradation, as well as its connection with autophagy, we propose new therapeutical approaches that aim to destabilize mutp53 proteins and deactivate its oncogenic functions, thereby providing a fundamental basis for further investigation and rational treatment approaches for TP53-mutated cancers.

Abstract
Natural products have played a significant role throughout history in the prevention and treatment of numerous diseases, particularly cancers. As a natural product primarily derived from various medicinal plants in the Withania genus, withanolides have been shown in several studies to exhibit potential activities in cancer treatment. Consequently, understanding the molecular mechanism of withanolides could herald the discovery of new anticancer agents. Withanolides have been studied widely, especially in the last 20 years, and attracted the attention of numerous researchers. Currently, over 1200 withanolides have been classified, with approximately a quarter of them having been reported in the literature to be able to modulate the survival and death of cancer cells through multiple avenues. To what extent, though, has the anticancer effects of these compounds been studied? How far are they from being developed into clinical drugs? What are their potential, characteristic features, and challenges? In this review, we elaborate on the current knowledge of natural compounds belonging to this class and provide an overview of their natural sources, anticancer activity, mechanism of action, molecular targets, and implications for anticancer drug research. In addition, direct targets and clinical research to guide the design and implementation of future preclinical and clinical studies to accelerate the application of withanolides have been highlighted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Aging becomes the most predominant risk factor for all age-associated pathological conditions with the increase of life expectancy and the aggravation of social aging. Slowing down the speed of aging is considered an effective way to improve health, but so far, effective anti-aging methods are relatively lacking. METHODS Anemonin (ANE) was screened from eight existing small-molecule compounds by cell viability assay. The function of ANE was determined by the analysis of cell proliferation, β -galactosidase (SA-β -Gal) activity, cell cycle, SASP secretion, NAD+/NADH ratio, and other aging-related indicators. The targets of ANE were predicted by Drug Target Prediction System (DTPS) and Swiss Targe Prediction System. The effect of ANE on PARP-1-NAD+-SIRT1 signaling pathway was assessed by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), Western blot, PARP1, NAD+ and SIRT1 activity detection. RESULTS ANE can delay cell senescence; PARP1 is one of the targets of ANE and plays a crucial role in ANE anti-aging; ANE release more NAD+ by inhibiting PARP1 activity, thereby conversely promoting the function of SIRT1 and delay cell senescence. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that ANE can delay cellular senescence through the PARP1-NAD+-SIRT1 signaling pathway, which may be considered as an effective anti-aging strategy.

Abstract
Thrombosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with a complex and multifactorial pathogenesis. Recent studies have shown that SIRT1, a member of the sirtuin family of NAD + -dependent deacetylases, plays a crucial role in regulating thrombosis, modulating key pathways including endothelial activation, platelet aggregation, and coagulation. Furthermore, SIRT1 displays anti-inflammatory activity both in vitro, in vivo and in clinical studies, particularly via the reduction of oxidative stress. On these bases, several studies have investigated the therapeutic potential of targeting SIRT1 for the prevention of thrombosis. This review provides a comprehensive and critical overview of the main preclinical and clinical studies and of the current understanding of the role of SIRT1 in thrombosis.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been identified as a novel gasotransmitter and a substantial antioxidant that can activate various cellular targets to regulate physiological and pathological processes in mammals. However, under physiological conditions, it remains unclear whether it is involved in regulating cardiomyocyte (CM) proliferation during postnatal development in mice. This study mainly aimed to evaluate the role of H2S in postnatal CM proliferation and its regulating molecular mechanisms. We found that sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS, the most widely used H2S donor, 50-200 μM) increased neonatal mouse primary CM proliferation in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Consistently, exogenous administration of H2S also promoted CM proliferation and increased the total number of CMs at postnatal 7 and 14 days in vivo. Moreover, we observed that the protein expression of SIRT1 was significantly upregulated after NaHS treatment. Inhibition of SIRT1 with EX-527 or si-SIRT1 decreased CM proliferation, while enhancement of the activation of SIRT1 with SRT1720 promoted CM proliferation. Meanwhile, pharmacological and genetic blocking of SIRT1 repressed the effect of NaHS on CM proliferation. Taken together, these results reveal that H2S plays a promotional role in proliferation of CMs in vivo and in vitro and SIRT1 is required for H2S-mediated CM proliferation, which indicates that H2S may be a potential modulator for heart development in postnatal time window.

Abstract
The protective roles of extracellular vesicles derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells against oxazolone-induced damage in the immortalized human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT were investigated. The cells were pretreated with or without UCMSC-derived extracellular vesicles 24 h before oxazolone exposure. The pretreated UVMSC-EVs showed protective activity, elevating cell viability, reducing intracellular ROS, and reducing the changes in the mitochondrial membrane potential compared to the cells with a direct oxazolone treatment alone. The UCMSC-EVs exhibited anti-inflammatory activity via reducing the inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α. A mechanism study showed that the UCMSC-EVs increased the protein expression levels of SIRT1 and P53 and reduced P65 protein expression. It was concluded that UVMSC-EVs can induce the antioxidant defense systems of HaCaT cells and that they may have potential as functional ingredients in anti-aging cosmetics for skin care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy and anti-cancer action of a precision medicine approach involving a novel SIRT1-dependent pathway that, when disrupted, leads to the restoration of a functional p53 in human papillomavirus (HPV)-transformed cells. METHODS The anticancer potential of inhibiting SIRT1 was evaluated by examining the effects of the specific SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 (also known as Selisistat) or genetic silencing, either individually or in conjunction with standard chemotherapeutic agents, on a range of HPV+ cancer cells and a preclinical mouse model of HPV16-induced cancer. RESULTS We show that SIRT1 inhibition restores a transcriptionally active K382-acetylated p53 in HPV+ but not HPV- cell lines, which in turn promotes G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and inhibits clonogenicity specifically in HPV+ cells. Additionally, EX527 treatment increases the sensitivity of HPV+ cells to sublethal doses of standard genotoxic agents. The enhanced sensitivity to cisplatin as well as p53 restoration were also observed in an in vivo tumorigenicity assay using syngeneic C3.43 cells harbouring an integrated HPV16 genome, injected subcutaneously into C57BL/6J mice. CONCLUSIONS Our findings uncover an essential role of SIRT1 in HPV-driven oncogenesis, which may have direct translational implications for the treatment of this type of cancer.

Abstract
Persea americana Mill. (Lauraceae), commonly known as avocado, is a well-known food because of its nutrition and health benefits. The seeds of avocado are major byproducts, and thus their phytochemicals and bioactivities have been of interest for study. The chemical components of avocado seeds were investigated by using UPLC-qTOF-MS/MS-based molecular networking, resulting in the isolation of seven new oxindole alkaloids (1-7) and two new benzoxazinone alkaloids (8 and 9). The chemical structures of the isolated compounds were identified by the analysis of NMR data in combination with computational approaches, including NMR and ECD calculations. Bioactivities of the isolated compounds toward silent information regulation 2 homologue-1 (SIRT1) in HEK293 cells were assessed. The results showed that compound 1 had the most potent effect on SIRT1 activation with an elevated NAD+/NADH ratio with potential for further investigation as an anti-aging agent.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) will be the third leading cause of death worldwide by 2030. One of its components, emphysema, has been defined as a lung disease that irreversibly damages the lungs' alveoli. Treatment is currently unavailable for emphysema symptoms and complete cure of the disease. Hyaluronan (HA) and proteoglycan link protein 1 (HAPLN1), an HA-binding protein linking HA in the extracellular matrix to stabilize the proteoglycan structure, forms a bulky hydrogel-like aggregate. Studies on the biological role of the full-length HAPLN1, a simple structure-stabilizing protein, are limited. Here, we demonstrated for the first time that treating human alveolar epithelial type 2 cells with recombinant human HAPLN1 (rhHAPLN1) increased TGF-β receptor 1 (TGF-β RI) protein levels, but not TGF-β RII, in a CD44-dependent manner with concurrent enhancement of the phosphorylated Smad3 (p-Smad3), but not p-Smad2, upon TGF-β1 stimulation. Furthermore, rhHAPLN1 significantly increased sirtuins levels (i.e., SIRT1/2/6) without TGF-β1 and inhibited acetylated p300 levels that were increased by TGF-β1. rhHAPLN1 is crucial in regulating cellular senescence, including p53, p21, and p16, and inflammation markers such as p-NF-κB and Nrf2. Both senile emphysema mouse model induced via intraperitoneal rhHAPLN1 injections and porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE)-induced COPD mouse model generated via rhHAPLN1-containing aerosols inhalations showed a significantly potent efficacy in reducing alveolar spaces enlargement. Preclinical trials are underway to investigate the effects of inhaled rhHAPLN1-containing aerosols on several COPD animal models.

Abstract
SIRT1 is an NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase that has been shown to play a significant role in many biological pathways, such as insulin secretion, tumor formation, lipid metabolism, and neurodegeneration. There is great interest in understanding the regulation of SIRT1 to better understand SIRT1-related diseases and to better design therapeutic approaches that target SIRT1. There are many known protein and small molecule activators and inhibitors of SIRT1. One well-studied SIRT1 regulator, resveratrol, has historically been regarded as a SIRT1 activator, however, recent studies have shown that it can also act as an inhibitor depending on the identity of the peptide substrate. The inhibitory nature of resveratrol has yet to be studied in detail. Understanding the mechanism behind this dual behavior is crucial for assessing the potential side effects of STAC-based therapeutics. Here, we investigate the detailed mechanism of substrate-dependent SIRT1 regulation by resveratrol. We demonstrate that resveratrol alters the substrate recognition of SIRT1 by affecting the K M values without significantly impacting the catalytic rate (k cat). Furthermore, resveratrol destabilizes SIRT1 and extends its conformation, but the conformational changes differ between the activation and inhibition scenarios. We propose that resveratrol renders SIRT1 more flexible in the activation scenario, leading to increased activity, while in the inhibition scenario, it unravels the SIRT1 structure, compromising substrate recognition. Our findings highlight the importance of substrate identity in resveratrol-mediated SIRT1 regulation and provide insights into the allosteric control of SIRT1. This knowledge can guide the development of targeted therapeutics for diseases associated with dysregulated SIRT1 activity.

Abstract
The most common factor that contributes to aging is the loss of proteostasis, resulting in an excess amount of non-functional/damaged proteins. These proteins lead to various age-associated phenotypes such as cellular senescence and dysfunction in the nutrient-sensing pathways. Despite the various factors that can contribute to aging, it is still a process that can be changed. According to recent advances in the field of biology, the ability to alter the pathways that are involved in aging can improve the lifespan of a person. Autophagy is a process that helps in preserving survival during stressful situations, such as starvation. It is a common component of various anti-aging interventions, including those that target the insulin/IGF-1 and rapamycin signaling pathways. It has been shown that altered autophagy is a common feature of old age and its impaired regulation could have significant effects on the aging process. This review aims to look into the role of autophagy in aging and how it can be used to improve one's health.

Abstract
Chromatin structure plays a fundamental role in regulating gene expression, with histone modifiers shaping the structure of chromatin by adding or removing chemical changes to histone proteins. The p53 transcription factor controls gene expression, binds target genes, and regulates their activity. While p53 has been extensively studied in cancer research, specifically in relation to fundamental cellular processes, including gene transcription, apoptosis, and cell cycle progression, its association with histone modifiers has received limited attention. This review explores the interplay between histone modifiers and p53 in regulating gene expression. We discuss how histone modifications can influence how p53 binds to target genes and how this interplay can be disrupted in cancer cells. This review provides insights into the complex mechanisms underlying gene regulation and their implications for potential cancer therapy.

Abstract
The development and immune evasion of cancer stem cells (CSCs) limit the efficacy of currently available anticancer therapies. Recent studies have shown that epigenetic reprogramming regulates the expression of characteristic marker proteins and tumor plasticity associated with cancer cell survival and metastasis in CSCs. CSCs also possess unique mechanisms to evade external attacks by immune cells. Hence, the development of new strategies to restore dysregulated histone modifications to overcome cancer resistance to chemotherapy and immunotherapy has recently attracted attention. Restoring abnormal histone modifications can be an effective anticancer strategy to increase the therapeutic effect of conventional chemotherapeutic and immunotherapeutic drugs by weakening CSCs or by rendering them in a naïve state with increased sensitivity to immune responses. In this review, we summarize recent findings regarding the role of histone modifiers in the development of drug-resistant cancer cells from the perspectives of CSCs and immune evasion. In addition, we discuss attempts to combine currently available histone modification inhibitors with conventional chemotherapy or immunotherapy.

Abstract
The increased metabolism in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) malignant cells resulted in the production of high levels of free radicals, called oxidative stress conditions. To avoid this situation, malignant cells produce a considerable amount of antioxidant agents, which will lead to the release of a continuous low level of reactive oxygen species (ROS), causing genomic damage and subsequent clonal evolution. SIRT1 has a key role in driving the adaptation to this condition, mainly through the deacetylation of FOXO3a that affects the expression of oxidative stress resistance target genes such as Catalase and Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). The aim of this study is to simultaneously investigate the expression of SIRT1, FOXO3a, and free radical-neutralizing enzymes such as Catalase and MnSOD in AML patients and measure their simultaneous change in relation to each other. The gene expression was analyzed using Real Time-PCR in 65 AML patients and 10 healthy controls. Our finding revealed that expression of SIRT1, FOXO3a, MnSOD and Catalase was significantly higher in AML patients in comparison to healthy controls. Also, there was a significant correlation between the expression of SIRT1 and FOXO3a, as well as among the expression of FOXO3a, MnSOD and Catalase genes in patients. According to the results, the expression of genes involved in oxidative stress resistance was higher in AML patients, which possibly contributed to the development of malignant clones. Also, the correlation between the expression of SIRT1 and FOXO3a gene reflects the importance of these two genes in increased oxidative stress resistance of cancer cells.

Abstract
As the guardian of the genome, p53 is well known for its tumor suppressor function in humans, controlling cell proliferation, senescence, DNA repair and cell death in cancer through transcriptional and non-transcriptional activities. p53 is the most frequently mutated gene in human cancer, but how its mutation or depletion leads to tumorigenesis still remains poorly understood. Recently, there has been increasing evidence that p53 plays a vital role in regulating cellular metabolism as well as in metabolic adaptation to nutrient starvation. In contrast, mutant p53 proteins, especially those harboring missense mutations, have completely different functions compared to wild-type p53. In this review, we briefly summarize what is known about p53 mediating anabolic and catabolic metabolism in cancer, and in particular discuss recent findings describing how metabolites regulate p53 functions. To illustrate the variability and complexity of p53 function in metabolism, we will also review the differential regulation of metabolism by wild-type and mutant p53.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT) are a class of histone deacetylases that regulate important metabolic pathways and play a role in several disease processes. Of the seven mammalian homologs currently identified, sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is the best understood and most studied. It has been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases and cancers. As such, it has been further investigated as a therapeutic target in the treatment of disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), and Alzheimer's disease (AD). SIRT1 deacetylates histones such as H1 lysine 26, H3 lysine 9, H3 lysine 56, and H4 lysine 16 to regulate chromatin remodeling and gene transcription. The homolog has also been observed to express contradictory responses to tumor suppression and tumor promotion. Studies have shown that SIRT1 may have anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting the effects of NF-κB, as well as stimulating upregulation of autophagy. The SIRT1 activators resveratrol and cilostazol have been shown to improve Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-Cog) scores in AD patients. In this review, we aim to explore the various roles of SIRT1 with regard to neuroprotection and neurodegeneration.

Huang C, Lin ZJ, Chen JC, Zheng HJ, Lai YH, Huang HC. α-Viniferin-Induced Apoptosis through Downregulation of SIRT1 in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:ph16050727. [PMID: 37242510 DOI: 10.3390/ph16050727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Revised: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
α-Viniferin, a natural stilbene compound found in plants and a polymer of resveratrol, had demonstrated potential anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the specific mechanisms underlying its anti-cancer activity were not yet fully understood and required further investigation. This study evaluated the effectiveness of α-viniferin and ε-viniferin using MTT assay. Results showed that α-viniferin was more effective than ε-viniferin in reducing the viability of NCI-H460 cells, a type of non-small cell lung cancer. Annexin V/7AAD assay results provided further evidence that the decrease in cell viability observed in response to α-viniferin treatment was due to the induction of apoptosis in NCI-H460 cells. The present findings indicated that treatment with α-viniferin could stimulate apoptosis in cells by cleaving caspase 3 and PARP. Moreover, the treatment reduced the expression of SIRT1, vimentin, and phosphorylated AKT, and also induced AIF nuclear translocation. Furthermore, this research provided additional evidence for the effectiveness of α-viniferin as an anti-tumor agent in nude mice with NCI-H460 cell xenografts. As demonstrated by the TUNEL assay results, α-viniferin promoted apoptosis in NCI-H460 cells in nude mice.

KLF12 promotes the proliferation of breast cancer cells by reducing the transcription of p21 in a p53-dependent and p53-independent manner. Cell Death Dis 2023; 14:313.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women worldwide. Many genes are involved in the development of breast cancer, including the Kruppel Like Factor 12 (KLF12) gene, which has been implicated in the development and progression of several cancers. However, the comprehensive regulatory network of KLF12 in breast cancer has not yet been fully elucidated. This study examined the role of KLF12 in breast cancer and its associated molecular mechanisms. KLF12 was found to promote the proliferation of breast cancer and inhibit apoptosis in response to genotoxic stress. Subsequent mechanistic studies showed that KLF12 inhibits the activity of the p53/p21 axis, specifically by interacting with p53 and affecting its protein stability via influencing the acetylation and ubiquitination of lysine370/372/373 at the C-terminus of p53. Furthermore, KLF12 disrupted the interaction between p53 and p300, thereby reducing the acetylation of p53 and stability. Meanwhile, KLF12 also inhibited the transcription of p21 independently of p53. These results suggest that KLF12 might have an important role in breast cancer and serve as a potential prognostic marker and therapeutic target.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is known as one of the most prevalent malignancies globally and is not yet curable owing to its progressive nature. It has been well documented that Genetic and epigenetic alterations maintain mandatory roles in PCa development. Apoptosis, a form of programmed cell death, has been shown to be involved in a number of physiological processes. Apoptosis disruption is considered as one of the main mechanism involved in lots of pathological conditions, especially malignancy. There is ample of evidence in support of the fact that microRNAs (miRNAs) have crucial roles in several cellular biological processes, including apoptosis. Escaping from apoptosis is a common event in malignancy progression. Emerging evidence revealed miRNAs capabilities to act as apoptotic or anti-apoptotic factors by altering the expression levels of tumor inhibitor or oncogene genes. In the present narrative review, we described in detail how apoptosis dysfunction could be involved in PCa processes and additionally, the mechanisms behind miRNAs affect the apoptosis pathways in PCa. Identifying the mechanisms behind the effects of miRNAs and their targets on apoptosis can provide scientists new targets for PCa treatment.

Abstract
Cellular senescence within the cardiovascular system has, until recently, been understudied and unappreciated as a factor in the development of age-related cardiovascular diseases such as heart failure, myocardial infarction and atherosclerosis. This is in part due to challenges with defining senescence within post-mitotic cells such as cardiomyocytes. However, recent evidence has demonstrated senescent-like changes, including a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), in cardiomyocytes in response to ageing and cell stress. Other replicating cells, including fibroblasts and vascular smooth muscle cells, within the cardiovascular system have also been shown to undergo senescence and contribute to disease pathogenesis. These findings coupled with the emergence of senolytic therapies, to target and eliminate senescent cells, have provided fascinating new avenues for management of several age-related cardiovascular diseases with high prevalence. In this review, we discuss the role of senescent cells within the cardiovascular system and highlight the contribution of senescence cells to common cardiovascular diseases. We discuss the emerging role for senolytics in cardiovascular disease management while highlighting important aspects of senescence biology which must be clarified before the potential of senolytics can be fully realized.

Abstract
Accrued evidence has indicated that epigenetic mechanisms altered by alcohol have been implicated in the progression and development of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). SIRT1 plays an important role in ALD progression and has emerged as a promising therapeutic target for treating ALD. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of [11C]WL-1 for quantitative imaging of SIRT1 in mouse models of early-stage ALD. Positron emission tomography/computerized tomography (PET/CT) imaging was carried out 60 min following the injection of [11C]WL-1 in mouse models of early-stage ALD and normal control mice. The time-activity curves for ALD mouse livers showed remarkably decreased total uptake of [11C]WL-1 relative to that for control mouse livers. Moreover, compared with the normal control mice, decreased uptake in the cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum was also observed in early-stage ALD mice, while the uptake of [11C]WL-1 in amygdala showed no significant changes. Western blot analysis confirmed that the protein levels of SIRT1 in the brains of early-stage ALD mice were decreased significantly when compared to the normal control mouse brains. Collectively, PET imaging with [11C]WL-1 would facilitate future clinical studies, aiming to demonstrate the roles of SIRT1 in ALD.

Abstract
Mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type-c (MOTS-c) is the most unearthed peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). It is an important regulator of the nuclear genome during times of stress because it promotes an adaptive stress response to maintain cellular homeostasis. Identifying MOTS-c specific binding partners may aid in deciphering the complex web of mitochondrial and nuclear-encoded signals. Mitochondrial damage and dysfunction have been linked to aging and the accelerated cell death associated with many types of retinal degenerations. Furthermore, research on MOTS-c ability to revive oxidatively stressed RPE cells has revealed a significant protective role for the molecule. Evidence suggests that senescent cells play a role in the development of age-related retinal disorders. This review examines the links between MOTS-c, mitochondria, and age-related diseases of the retina. Moreover, the untapped potential of MOTS-c as a treatment for glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration is reviewed.

Abstract
Longevity is a hallmark of successful ageing and a complex trait with a significant genetic component. In this study, 43 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were chosen from the literature and genotyped in a Croatian oldest-old sample (85+ years, sample size (N) = 314), in order to determine whether any of these SNPs have a significant effect on reaching the age thresholds for longevity (90+ years, N = 212) and extreme longevity (95+ years, N = 84). The best models were selected for both survival ages using multivariate logistic regression. In the model for reaching age 90, nine SNPs explained 20% of variance for survival to that age, while the 95-year model included five SNPs accounting for 9.3% of variance. The two SNPs that showed the most significant association (p ≤ 0.01) with longevity were TERC rs16847897 and GHRHR rs2267723. Unweighted and weighted Genetic Longevity Scores (uGLS and wGLS) were calculated and their predictive power was tested. All four scores showed significant correlation with age at death (p ≤ 0.01). They also passed the ROC curve test with at least 50% predictive ability, but wGLS90 stood out as the most accurate score, with a 69% chance of accurately predicting survival to the age of 90.

Abstract
In the present study, an estuarine benthic fish, Mugilogobius chulae (M. chulae), was exposed to hypoxia, atorvastatin (ATV), a highly used and widely detected lipid-lowering drug in aquatic environment, and the combination of hypoxia and ATV for 7 days, respectively, so as to address and compare the effects of the combination of hypoxia and ATV exposure on M. chulae. The results showed that lipid metabolism in M. chulae was greatly affected: lipid synthesis was blocked and catabolism was enhanced, exhibiting that lipids content were heavily depleted. The combined exposure of hypoxia and ATV caused oxidative stress and induced massive inflammatory response in the liver of M. chulae. Signaling pathways involving in energy metabolism and redox responses regulated by key factors such as HIF, PPAR, p53 and sirt1 play important regulatory roles in hypoxia-ATV stress. Critically, we found that the response of M. chulae to ATV was more sensitive under hypoxia than normoxia. ATV exposure to aquatic non-target organisms under hypoxic conditions may make a great impact on the detoxification and energy metabolism, especially lipid metabolism, and aggravate the oxidative pressure of the exposed organisms.

Abstract
Cocoa, rich in polyphenols, has been reported to provide many health benefits due to its antioxidant properties. In this study, we investigated the effect of Cocoa polyphenols extract (CPE) against oxidative stress-induced cellular senescence using a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced cellular senescence model in three auditory cells lines derived from the auditory organ of a transgenic mouse: House Ear Institute-Organ of Corti 1 (HEI-OC1), Organ of Corti-3 (OC-k3), and Stria Vascularis (SV-k1) cells. Our results showed that CPE attenuated senescent phenotypes, including senescence-associated β-galactosidase expression, cell proliferation, alterations of morphology, oxidative DNA damage, mitochondrial dysfunction by inhibiting mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) generation, and related molecules expressions such as forkhead box O3 (FOXO3) and p53. In addition, we determined that CPE induces expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), and it has a protective role against cellular senescence by upregulation of SIRT1 and SIRT3. These data indicate that CPE protects against senescence through SIRT1, SIRT3, FOXO3, and p53 in auditory cells. In conclusion, these results suggest that Cocoa has therapeutic potential against age-related hearing loss (ARHL).

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs are a novel class of regulators in human cancers. It has been reported that small nucleolar RNA hostgene 7 (SNHG7) can sponge microRNAs to regulate colorectal cancer (CRC) progression. Given its important regulatory role in cancer biology, we wondered whether SNHG7 is involved in drug resistance to anlotinib (ATB) in CRC. To answer this, we quantified the expression of SNHG7 by quantitative real-time PCR. We performed the Cell Counting Kit-8 and Colony formation assay, flow cytometric analysis, RNA pull-down, RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation assay, and Luciferase reporter assay to confirm the interaction among SNHG7, miR-181a-5p, and GATA6. We found that SNHG7 was significantly upregulated in CRC tissues and cell lines and ATB-resistant cell lines, which was closely related to the poor overall survival of patients. Loss-of-function studies demonstrated that SNHG7 knockdown can inhibit CRC cell proliferation, increase apoptosis, and sensitize CRC cells to resist ATB. Mechanistic studies showed that SNHG7 acted as a competitive endogenous RNA to sponge miR-181a-5p to regulate the expression of GATA6, thereby promoting ATB resistance in ATB-resistant cell lines. In conclusion, SNHG7 plays an important role in ATB resistance, and it may be used to monitor ATB resistance in CRC.

Abstract
Background Prostate cancer (PCa) is among the most prevalent cancers in males with high biochemical recurrence risk. LINC00106 contributes to the carcinogenesis of Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, it is unclear how it affects PCa advancement. Here, we studied LINC00106's effects on PCa cells' ability to proliferate, invade, and metastasize. Methods The data of LINC00106 from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) in human PCa tissues were analyzed using TANRIC and survival analysis. In order to determine the expression levels of genes and proteins, we also performed reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blot analysis. The migration, invasion, colony formation, and proliferation (CCK-8) of PCa cells with LINC00106 knockdown were investigated. The impact of LINC00106 on cell proliferation and invasion was also analyzed in mice. LncRNA prediction software catRAPID omics v2.1 (catRAPID omics v2.0 (tartaglialab.com)) was used to predict proteins that might interact with LINC00106. The interactions were verified via RNA immunoprecipitation and RNA pull-down assays and finally, the interaction between LINC00106 and its target protein and the p53 signaling pathway was studied using a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results In PCa, LINC00106 was over-expressed in comparison to normal tissues, and it was linked to an unfavorableprognosis. In vitro and in vivo analyses showed that downregulating LINC00106 decreased PCa cells'ability to proliferate and migrate. A common regulatory axis generated by LINC00106 and RPS19BP1 prevents p53 activity. Conclusion Our experimental data indicate that LINC00106 functions as an oncogene in the onset of PCa, and the LINC00106/RPS19BP1/P53 axis canserve as a novel therapeutic target for PCa treatment.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are nicotine adenine dinucleotide(+)-dependent histone deacetylases regulating critical signaling pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and are involved in numerous biological processes. Currently, seven mammalian homologs of yeast Sir2 named SIRT1 to SIRT7 have been identified. Increasing evidence has suggested the vital roles of seven members of the SIRT family in health and disease conditions. Notably, this protein family plays a variety of important roles in cellular biology such as inflammation, metabolism, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, etc., thus, it is considered a potential therapeutic target for different kinds of pathologies including cancer, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and other conditions. Moreover, identification of SIRT modulators and exploring the functions of these different modulators have prompted increased efforts to discover new small molecules, which can modify SIRT activity. Furthermore, several randomized controlled trials have indicated that different interventions might affect the expression of SIRT protein in human samples, and supplementation of SIRT modulators might have diverse impact on physiological function in different participants. In this review, we introduce the history and structure of the SIRT protein family, discuss the molecular mechanisms and biological functions of seven members of the SIRT protein family, elaborate on the regulatory roles of SIRTs in human disease, summarize SIRT inhibitors and activators, and review related clinical studies.

Abstract
Cannabidiol (CBD), the major non-psychoactive phytocannabinoid of Cannabis sativa L., is one of the most studied compounds in pharmacotherapeutic approaches to treat oxidative stress-related diseases such as cardiovascular, metabolic, neurodegenerative, and neoplastic diseases. The literature data to date indicate the possibility of both antioxidant and pro-oxidative effects of CBD. Thus, the mechanism of action of this natural compound in the regulation of nuclear factor 2 associated with erythroid 2 (Nrf2), which plays the role of the main cytoprotective regulator of redox balance and inflammation under oxidative stress conditions, seems to be particularly important. Moreover, Nrf2 is strongly correlated with the cellular neoplastic profile and malignancy, which in turn is critical in determining the cellular response induced by CBD under pathophysiological conditions. This paper summarizes the CBD-mediated pathways of regulation of the Nrf2 system by altering the expression and modification of both proteins directly involved in Nrf2 transcriptional activity and proteins involved in the relationship between Nrf2 and the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) which is another redox-sensitive transcription factor.

Abstract
The growing worldwide burden of insulin resistance (IR) emphasizes the importance of early identification for improved management. Obesity, particularly visceral obesity, has been a key contributing factor in the development of IR. The obesity-associated chronic inflammatory state contributes to the development of obesity-related comorbidities, including IR. Adipocytokines, which are released by adipose tissue, have been investigated as possible indicators of IR. Visfatin was one of the adipocytokines that attracted attention due to its insulin-mimetic activity. It is released from a variety of sources, including visceral fat and macrophages, and it influences glucose metabolism and increases inflammation. The relationship between visfatin and IR in obesity is debatable. As a result, the purpose of this review was to better understand the role of visfatin in glucose homeostasis and to review the literature on the association between visfatin levels and IR, cardiovascular diseases, and renal diseases in obesity.

Abstract
Silent information regulators, sirtuins (SIRTs), are a family of enzymes which take part in major posttranslational modifications of proteins and contribute to multiple cellular processes, including metabolic and energetic transformations, as well as regulation of the cell cycle. Recently, SIRTs have gained increased attention as the object of research because of their multidirectional activity and possible role in the complex pathomechanisms underlying human diseases. The aim of this study was to review a current literature evidence of SIRTs' role in the physiology and pathology of the central nervous system (CNS). SIRTs have been demonstrated to be crucial players in the crosstalk between neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and metabolic alterations. The elucidation of SIRTs' role in the background of various CNS diseases offers a chance to define relevant markers of their progression and promising candidates for novel therapeutic targets. Possible diagnostic and therapeutic implications from SIRTs-related investigations are discussed, as well as their future directions and associated challenges.

Abstract
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women. The roles of the SIRT and FoxO proteins in tumor progression are known, but their roles in metastasis have not yet been clearly elucidated. In our study, we investigated the roles of SIRT and FoxO proteins their downstream pathways, proteins p21 and p53, in tumor progression and metastasis. We evaluated these proteins in vitro using metastatic 4TLM and 67NR cell lines, as well as their expression levels in tumor-bearing mice. In addition, the regulatory role of SIRT and FoxO proteins in different transduction cascades was examined by IPA core analysis, and clinicopathological evidence was investigated in the TCGA database. In primary tumors, the expression levels of SIRT1, p21, p53, E2F1 and FoxO proteins were higher in 67NR groups. In metastatic tissues, the expression levels of SIRT1, E2F1 and FoxO proteins were found to be enhanced, whereas the levels of p53 and p21 expression were noted to be reduced. IPA analysis also provided empirical evidence of the mechanistic involvement of SIRT and FoxO proteins in tumor progression and metastasis. In conclusion, SIRT1 was found to co-operate with FoxO proteins and to play a critical role in metastasis. Additional research is required to determine why overexpression of SIRT1 in metastatic tissues has oncogenic effects.

Abstract
Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved cellular process in which macromolecules undergo lysosomal degradation. It fulfills essential roles in quality controlling cellular constituents and in energy homeostasis. Basal autophagy is also widely accepted to provide a protective role in aging and aging-related disorders, and its decline with age might precipitate the onset of a variety of diseases. In this review, we discuss the role of basal autophagy in maintaining homeostasis, in part through the maintenance of stem cell populations and the prevention of cellular senescence. We also consider how stress-induced senescence, for example, during oncogene activation and in premalignant disease, might rely on autophagy, and the possibility that the age-associated decline in autophagy might promote tumour development through a variety of mechanisms. Ultimately, evidence suggests that autophagy is required for malignant cancer progression in a number of settings. Thus, autophagy appears to be tumour-suppressive during the early stages of tumorigenesis and tumour-promoting at later stages.

Abstract
As a result of ongoing breakthroughs in cancer therapy, cancer patients' survival rates have grown considerably. However, cardiotoxicity has emerged as the most dangerous toxic side effect of cancer treatment, negatively impacting cancer patients' prognosis. In recent years, the link between non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and cancer therapy-induced cardiotoxicity has received much attention and investigation. NcRNAs are non-protein-coding RNAs that impact gene expression post-transcriptionally. They include microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs). In several cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy-induced cardiotoxicity, ncRNAs play a significant role in the onset and progression of cardiotoxicity. This review focuses on the mechanisms of ncRNAs in cancer therapy-induced cardiotoxicity, including apoptosis, mitochondrial damage, oxidative stress, DNA damage, inflammation, autophagy, aging, calcium homeostasis, vascular homeostasis, and fibrosis. In addition, this review explores potential ncRNAs-based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies, which may help to convert ncRNAs research into clinical practice in the future for early detection and improvement of cancer therapy-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
Many proteins display conformational changes resulting from allosteric regulation. Often only a few residues are crucial in conveying these structural and functional allosteric changes. These regions that undergo a significant change in structure upon receiving an input signal, such as molecular recognition, are defined as switch-like regions. Identifying these key residues within switch-like regions can help elucidate the mechanism of allosteric regulation and provide guidance for synthetic regulation. In this study, we combine a novel computational workflow with biochemical methods to identify a switch-like region in the N-terminal domain of human SIRT1 (hSIRT1), a lysine deacetylase that plays important roles in regulating cellular pathways. Based on primary sequence, computational methods predicted a region between residues 186-193 in hSIRT1 to exhibit switch-like behavior. Mutations were then introduced in this region and the resulting mutants were tested for allosteric reactions to resveratrol, a known hSIRT1 allosteric regulator. After fine-tuning the mutations based on comparison of known secondary structures, we were able to pinpoint M193 as the residue essential for allosteric regulation, likely by communicating the allosteric signal. Mutation of this residue maintained enzyme activity but abolished allosteric regulation by resveratrol. Our findings suggest a method to predict switch-like regions in allosterically regulated enzymes based on the primary sequence. If further validated, this could be an efficient way to identify key residues in enzymes for therapeutic drug targeting and other applications.

Uterine-specific SIRT1 deficiency confers premature uterine aging and impairs invasion and spacing of blastocyst, and stromal cell decidualization, in mice. Mol Hum Reprod 2022; 28:gaac016. [PMID: 35536234 PMCID: PMC10689003 DOI: 10.1093/molehr/gaac016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2022] [Revised: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
A distinct age-related alteration in the uterine environment has recently been identified as a prevalent cause of the reproductive decline in older female mice. However, the molecular mechanisms that underlie age-associated uterine adaptability to pregnancy are not known. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a multifunctional NAD+-dependent deacetylase that regulates cell viability, senescence and inflammation during aging, is reduced in aged decidua. Thus, we hypothesize that SIRT1 plays a critical role in uterine adaptability to pregnancy and that uterine-specific ablation of Sirt1 gene accelerates premature uterine aging. Female mice with uterine ablation of Sirt1 gene using progesterone receptor Cre (PgrCre) exhibit subfertility and signs of premature uterine aging. These Sirt1-deficient mothers showed decreases in litter size from their 1st pregnancy and became sterile (25.1 ± 2.5 weeks of age) after giving birth to the third litter. We report that uterine-specific Sirt1 deficiency impairs invasion and spacing of blastocysts, and stromal cell decidualization, leading to abnormal placentation. We found that these problems traced back to the very early stages of hormonal priming of the uterus. During the window of receptivity, Sirt1 deficiency compromises uterine epithelial-stromal crosstalk, whereby estrogen, progesterone and Indian hedgehog signaling pathways are dysregulated, hampering stromal cell priming for decidualization. Uterine transcriptomic analyses also link these causes to perturbations of histone proteins and epigenetic modifiers, as well as adrenomedullin signaling, hyaluronic acid metabolism, and cell senescence. Strikingly, our results also identified genes with significant overlaps with the transcriptome of uteri from aged mice and transcriptomes related to master regulators of decidualization (e.g. Foxo1, Wnt4, Sox17, Bmp2, Egfr and Nr2f2). Our results also implicate accelerated deposition of aging-related fibrillar Type I and III collagens in Sirt1-deficient uteri. Collectively, SIRT1 is an important age-related regulator of invasion and spacing of blastocysts, as well as decidualization of stromal cells.

Reprod Biol 2022; 22:100638. [PMID: 35344846 DOI: 10.1016/j.repbio.2022.100638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Revised: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 03/12/2022] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a common gynecological disease. Autoimmunity is a common cause of POI. Icariin (ICA) plays a therapeutic role in many autoimmune diseases. This study aims to investigate the effect of ICA on autoimmune POI mice and its effect on immune regulation. Sixty-three female BALB/c mice were randomized into three groups (control, POI, POI + ICA). POI and POI + ICA group were hypodermically injected with zona pellucida three peptides (pZP3) to induce autoimmune POI. Then the POI + ICA group was gavaged with ICA. A vaginal smear was to observe estrous cycles, hematoxylin-eosin staining was to count follicles. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent analysis determined serum FSH, LH, AMH, and anti-zona pellucida antibody (AZPAb) levels. In addition, flow cytometry detected the expression of Th1 cells and Treg cells, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of Nuclear factor E2 related factor 2(Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and Sirtuin-1 (Sirt1) proteins. pZP3 treatment decreased serum AMH levels and increased FSH, LH, and AZPAb levels. Additionally, decreases in the number of healthy follicles at all stages and an increase in the number of atretic follicles. Abnormal ovarian structure and an arrested estrous cycle were also noted. However, ICA rescued POI through up-regulating Nrf2, HO-1, and Sirt1 expressions and up-regulating Treg expressions. ICA treatment improved the structure of the injured ovarian and its function in autoimmune POI mice. The mechanism is achieved by increasing the expression of Nrf2/HO-1/Sirt1 pathway in the ovary and increasing Treg cells' expression.

Abstract
In patients with kidney injury, muscle mass and strength decrease with altered muscle protein synthesis and degradation along with complications such as inflammation and low physical activity. A treatment strategy to maintain muscle metabolism in kidney injury is important. One of the proposed strategies in this regard is exercise, which in addition to inducing muscle hypertrophy, reducing plasma creatinine and urea and decreasing the severity of tubal injuries, can boost immune function and has anti-inflammatory effects. One of the molecules that have been considered as a target in the treatment of many diseases is silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1). Exercise increases the expression of SIRT1 and improves its activity. Therefore, studies that examined the effect of exercise on kidney injury considering the role of SIRT1 in this effect were reviewed to determine the direction of kidney injury research in future regarding to its prevalence, especially following diabetes, and lack of definitive treatment. In this review, we found that SIRT1 can be one of renoprotective target pathways of exercise. However, further studies are needed to determine the role of SIRT1 in different kidney injuries following exercise according to the type and severity of exercise, and the type of kidney injury.

Abstract
Pathways regulating cell senescence and cell cycle underlie many processes associated with ageing and age-related pathologies, and they also mediate cellular responses to exposure to stressors. Meanwhile, there are central mechanisms of the regulation of stress responses that induce/enhance or weaken the response of the whole organism, such as hormones of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, thymic hormones, and the pineal hormone melatonin. Although there are many analyses considering relationships between the HPA axis and organism ageing, we found no systematic analyses of relationships between the neuroendocrine regulators of stress and inflammation and intracellular mechanisms controlling cell cycle, senescence, and apoptosis. Here, we provide a review of the effects of neuroendocrine regulators on these mechanisms. Our analysis allowed us to postulate a multilevel system of central regulators involving neurotransmitters, glucocorticoids, melatonin, and the thymic hormones. This system finely regulates the cell cycle and metabolic/catabolic processes depending on the level of systemic stress, stage of stress response, and energy capabilities of the body, shifting the balance between cell cycle progression, cell cycle stopping, senescence, and apoptosis. These processes and levels of regulation should be considered when studying the mechanisms of ageing and the proliferation on the level of the whole organism.

Abstract
Exposure to potentially lethal high-dose ionizing radiation results in bone marrow suppression, known as the hematopoietic acute radiation syndrome (H-ARS), which can lead to pancytopenia and possible death from hemorrhage or infection. Medical countermeasures to protect from or mitigate the effects of radiation exposure are an ongoing medical need. We recently reported that 16,16 dimethyl prostaglandin E2 (dmPGE2) given prior to lethal irradiation protects hematopoietic stem (HSCs) and progenitor (HPCs) cells and accelerates hematopoietic recovery by attenuating mitochondrial compromise, DNA damage, apoptosis, and senescence. However, molecular mechanisms responsible for the radioprotective effects of dmPGE2 on HSCs are not well understood. In this report, we identify a crucial role for the NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) downstream of PKA and CREB in dmPGE2-dependent radioprotection of hematopoietic cells. We found that dmPGE2 increases Sirt1 expression and activity in hematopoietic cells including HSCs and pharmacologic and genetic suppression of Sirt1 attenuates the radioprotective effects of dmPGE2 on HSC and HPC function and its ability to reduce DNA damage, apoptosis, and senescence and stimulate autophagy in HSCs. DmPGE2-mediated enhancement of Sirt1 activity in irradiated mice is accompanied by epigenetic downregulation of p53 activation and inhibition of H3K9 and H4K16 acetylation at the promoters of the genes involved in DNA repair, apoptosis, and autophagy, including p53, Ku70, Ku80, LC3b, ATG7, and NF-κB. These studies expand our understanding of intracellular events that are induced by IR but prevented/attenuated by dmPGE2 and suggest that modulation of Sirt1 activity may facilitate hematopoietic recovery following hematopoietic stress.

Abstract
This study aimed to determine the effects of lidocaine on cell proliferation and cisplatin resistance in A431 human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) cells and elucidate the underlying mechanism. Cell proliferation, colony numbers, and cisplatin resistance were determined in A431 or cisplatin-resistant A431 (A431-R) cells that were first transfected with miR-30c-inhibitor or miR-30c-mimic, respectively, and then treated with different concentrations of lidocaine, cisplatin, or both. The expression levels of miR-30c and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in A431 and A431-R cells were determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. Lidocaine suppressed A431 cell proliferation and cisplatin resistance in a dose- and time-dependent manner via the miR-30c/SIRT1 pathway. MiR-30c overexpression also suppressed cell proliferation and cisplatin resistance in A431 cells by directly targeting and downregulating SIRT1, thus enhancing the protective effects of lidocaine. Conversely, SIRT1 upregulation or miR-30c inhibition antagonized the inhibitory effects of lidocaine. Our results suggest that lidocaine may suppress the progression of cSCC by activating the miR-30c/SIRT1 pathway, indicating its promising potential as a treatment strategy for cSCC.

Abstract
Sleep plays a major role in brain health, and cognition. Disrupted sleep is a well-described symptom of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, accumulating evidence suggests suboptimal sleep also increases AD risk. The deacetylase Sirtuin 1 (Sirt 1), encoded by the SIRT1 gene, impacts sleep via its relationship to wake-sleep neurotransmitters and somnogens. Evidence from animal and human studies supports a significant and complex relationship between sleep, Sirt 1/ SIRT1 and AD. Numerous hypotheses attempt to explain the critical impact of Sirt 1/ SIRT1 on wake- and sleep- promoting neurons, their related mechanisms and neurotransmitters. However, there is a paucity of studies assessing the interaction between sleep and Sirt 1/ SIRT1, as a principal component of sleep regulation, on AD pathology. In this review, we explore the potential association between Sirt 1/ SIRT1, sleep, and AD aetiology. Given sleep is a likely modifiable risk factor for AD, and recent studies suggest Sirt 1/ SIRT1 activation can be modulated by lifestyle or dietary approaches, further research in this area is required to explore its potential as a target for AD prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Owing to its presence in several biological processes, Sirt1 acts as a potential therapeutic target for many diseases. Here, we report the structure-based designing and synthesis of two distinct series of novel Sirt1 inhibitors, benzimidazole mono-peptides and amino-acid derived 5-pyrazolyl methylidene rhodanine carboxylic acid. The compounds were evaluated for in vitro enzyme-based and cell-based Sirt1 inhibition assay, and cytotoxic-activity in both liver and breast cancer cells. The tryptophan conjugates i.e.13h (IC50 = 0.66 μM, ΔGbind = −1.1 kcal mol−1) and 7d (IC50 = 0.77 μM, ΔGbind = −4.4 kcal mol−1) demonstrated the maximum efficacy to inhibit Sirt1. The MD simulation unveiled that electrostatic complementarity at the substrate-binding-site through a novel motif “SLxVxP(V/F)A” could be a cause of increased Sirt1 inhibition by 13h and 13l over Sirt2 in cell-based assay, as compared to the control Ex527 and 7d. Finally, this study highlights novel molecules 7d and 13h, along with a new key hot-spot in Sirt1, which could be used as a starting lead to design more potent and selective sirtuin inhibitors as a potential anticancer molecule. Owing to its presence in several biological processes, Sirt1 acts as a potential therapeutic target for many diseases.![]()

Abstract
Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a frequently studied catechin in green tea, has been shown involved in the anti-proliferation and apoptosis of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of the apoptotic effects of EGCG has not been fully investigated. Recent literature emphasized the importance of Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), an NAD+-dependent protein deacetylase, in regulating cellular stress responses, survival, and organismal lifespan. Herein, the study showed that EGCG could significantly inhibit cell proliferation and promote apoptosis of 2 NPC (CNE-2 and 5-8F) cell lines. Moreover, it was also found that SIRT1 is down-regulated by EGCG, and the SIRT1-p53 signaling pathway participates in the effects of EGCG on CNE-2 and 5-8 F cells. Taken together, the findings of this study provided evidence that EGCG could inhibit the growth of NPC cell lines and is linked with the inhibition of the SIRT1-p53 signaling pathway, suggesting the therapeutic potential of EGCG in human NPC.

Abstract
SIRT1 is a multifunctional deacetylase that participates in a variety of cellular physiological processes to cope with stress. The anticancer protein P53 is an important target of SIRT1. It has been found that SIRT1 is involved in apoptosis by regulating the activity and intracellular location of P53. Moreover, P53-dependent apoptosis is inseparable from the BCL-2 protein family. Among the members of this family, BAX’s switching dynamics may play a key role in apoptosis. Therefore, a challenging question arises: what effect does SIRT1 have on the BAX switch? To answer this question, we built a small-scale protein network model. Through computer simulation, the properties of SIRT1 that on the one hand promote and on the other inhibit apoptosis are revealed. We found that the opening time of the BAX switch will be delayed in the case of either SIRT1 excess or deficiency. Similarly, the stimulus threshold required for apoptosis will also increase in the above two scenarios. Thereby, we proposed that SIRT1 has an optimal content at which the probability of apoptosis is greatest. In addition, P53 oscillation requires the concentration of SIRT1 to be higher than the optimal value. This work may be helpful both experimentally and clinically.

Cellular senescence is associated with pleiotropic physiopathological processes, including aging and age-related diseases. The persistent DNA damage is a major stress leading to senescence, but the underlying molecular link remains elusive. Here, we identify La Ribonucleoprotein 7 (LARP7), a 7SK RNA binding protein, as an aging antagonist. DNA damage-mediated Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) activation triggers the extracellular shuttling and downregulation of LARP7, which dampens SIRT1 deacetylase activity, enhances p53 and NF-κB (p65) transcriptional activity by augmenting their acetylation, and thereby accelerates cellular senescence. Deletion of LARP7 leads to senescent cell accumulation and premature aging in rodent model. Furthermore, we show this ATM-LARP7-SIRT1-p53/p65 senescence axis is active in vascular senescence and atherogenesis, and preventing its activation substantially alleviates senescence and atherogenesis. Together, this study identifies LARP7 as a gatekeeper of senescence, and the altered ATM-LARP7-SIRT1-p53/p65 pathway plays an important role in DNA damage response (DDR)-mediated cellular senescence and atherosclerosis.
