Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 2023; 324:C1017-C1027. [PMID: 36878847 PMCID: PMC10110703 DOI: 10.1152/ajpcell.00459.2022] [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: 10/12/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023]
Abstract
Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent deacetylases with beneficial roles in conditions relevant to human health, including metabolic disease, type II diabetes, obesity, cancer, aging, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiac ischemia. Since ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels have cardioprotective roles, we investigated whether they are regulated by sirtuins. Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) was used to increase cytosolic NAD+ levels and to activate sirtuins in cell lines, isolated rat and mouse cardiomyocytes or insulin-secreting INS-1 cells. KATP channels were studied with patch clamping, biochemistry techniques, and antibody uptake experiments. NMN led to an increase in intracellular NAD+ levels and an increase in the KATP channel current, without significant changes in the unitary current amplitude or open probability. An increased surface expression was confirmed using surface biotinylation approaches. The rate of KATP channel internalization was diminished by NMN, which may be a partial explanation for the increased surface expression. We show that NMN acts via sirtuins since the increased KATP channel surface expression was prevented by blockers of SIRT1 and SIRT2 (Ex527 and AGK2) and mimicked by SIRT1 activation (SRT1720). The pathophysiological relevance of this finding was studied using a cardioprotection assay with isolated ventricular myocytes, in which NMN protected against simulated ischemia or hypoxia in a KATP channel-dependent manner. Overall, our data draw a link between intracellular NAD+, sirtuin activation, KATP channel surface expression, and cardiac protection against ischemic damage.

Abstract
Maternal aging can impair the quality and decrease the developmental competence of ovulated oocytes. In this study, compromised germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) was found in aged mice oocytes. Furthermore, we observed increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial Ca2+ levels, along with reduced mitochondrial temperature in aged oocytes. Maternal aging also changed the crotonylation level in oocytes. Forkhead box O3 (FoxO3a), a member of the forkhead protein family involved in the regulation of cell survival and life span reached a peak level in the metaphase II stage. Compared with a younger group, FoxO3a expression increased in aged oocytes. Intracellular localization of FoxO3a changed from the cytoplasm to chromatin in response to aging. The expression of the upstream regulator nicotinamide-phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt) peaked in the GVBD stage. Moreover, Nampt expression was increased in aged oocytes, and more intense staining of Nampt was found in aged mice ovary. To further study the role of Nampt in mitochondrial function, specific agonist P7C3 and inhibitor FK866 were applied to aged oocytes, and FK866 significantly decreased adenosine triphosphate and mitochondrial membrane potential. In conclusion, mitochondrial dysfunction in aged oocytes was associated with elevated FoxO3a, and suppression of Nampt could further impair mitochondrial function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) regulates cellular functions through the protein deacetylation activity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent sirtuins (SIRTs). SIRTs regulate functions of histones and none-histone proteins. The role of NAMPT/SIRT pathway in the regulation of maintenance and differentiation of human-induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells is not fully elucidated. METHODS We evaluated the effects of specific inhibitors of NAMPT or SIRT2 on the pluripotency, proliferation, survival, and hematopoietic differentiation of human iPS cells. We also studied the molecular mechanism downstream of NAMPT/SIRTs in iPS cells. RESULTS We demonstrated that NAMPT is indispensable for the maintenance, survival, and hematopoietic differentiation of iPS cells. We found that inhibition of NAMPT or SIRT2 in iPS cells induces p53 protein by promoting its lysine acetylation. This leads to activation of the p53 target, p21, with subsequent cell cycle arrest and induction of apoptosis in iPS cells. NAMPT and SIRT2 inhibition also affect hematopoietic differentiation of iPS cells in an embryoid body (EB)-based cell culture system. CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrate the essential role of the NAMPT/SIRT2/p53/p21 signaling axis in the maintenance and hematopoietic differentiation of iPS cells.

Abstract
Obesity is a serious chronic disease and a public health concern in both developing and developed countries. Managing obesity has been a great challenge for both health care professionals and patients alike. Among the various diet programs aimed at promoting weight loss, the ketogenic diet, a diet high in fat and low in carbohydrates, has been at the forefront recently and its mechanism in weight loss is much debated. Activation of Sirtuin 1 or SIRT1 is able to circumvent various diseases, including metabolic syndrome and obesity and is thought to be a potentially reliable treatment target for both of them. Augmentation of SIRT1 may be carried out using dietary means such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) supplementation and/or ketogenic diet. Although ketogenic diet may augment SIRT1 activation in people affected by obesity, recent studies have indicated that the relationship between SIRT1 and ketogenesis is unpredictable. The exact circumstances and mechanisms of SIRT1, NAD and ketogenesis in the clinical setting as an intervention tool in managing obesity remained uncertain. Although several recent literatures have documented significant weight-loss following ketogenic diet interventions, there were limitations with regards to duration of trial, choice and the number of trial subjects. Studies investigating the safety of ketogenic diet in the long term, beyond 46 weeks and related mechanism and pathways are still lacking and the sustainability of this diet remains to be determined. This review explores the recent progress on ketogenic diet and its relationships with SIRT1 as a tool in managing obesity and relevant clinical implications.

Abstract
Hematopoietic transcription factor LIM domain only 2 (LMO2), a member of the TAL1 transcriptional complex, plays an essential role during early hematopoiesis and is frequently activated in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) patients. Here, we demonstrate that LMO2 is activated by deacetylation on lysine 74 and 78 via the nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT)/sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) pathway. LMO2 deacetylation enables LMO2 to interact with LIM domain binding 1 and activate the TAL1 complex. NAMPT/SIRT2-mediated activation of LMO2 by deacetylation appears to be important for hematopoietic differentiation of induced pluripotent stem cells and blood formation in zebrafish embryos. In T-ALL, deacetylated LMO2 induces expression of TAL1 complex target genes HHEX and NKX3.1 as well as LMO2 autoregulation. Consistent with this, inhibition of NAMPT or SIRT2 suppressed the in vitro growth and in vivo engraftment of T-ALL cells via diminished LMO2 deacetylation. This new molecular mechanism may provide new therapeutic possibilities in T-ALL and may contribute to the development of new methods for in vitro generation of blood cells.

Abstract
Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) is the bottleneck enzyme of the NAD salvage pathway and thereby is a controller of intracellular NAD concentrations. It has been long known that the same enzyme can be secreted by a number of cell types and acts as a cytokine, although its receptor is at present unknown. Investigational compounds have been developed that target the enzymatic activity as well as the extracellular action (i.e. neutralizing antibodies). The present contribution reviews the evidence that links intracellular and extracellular NAMPT to myeloid biology, for example governing monocyte/macrophage differentiation, polarization and migration. Furthermore, it reviews the evidence that links this protein to some disorders in which myeloid cells have a prominent role (acute infarct, inflammatory bowel disease, acute lung injury and rheumatoid arthritis) and the data showing that inhibition of the enzymatic activity or the neutralization of the cytokine is beneficial in preclinical animal models.

Abstract
A paradigm shift is emerging within the FOXO field and accumulating evidence indicates that we need to reappreciate the role of FOXOs, at least in cancer development. Here, we discuss the possibility that FOXOs are both tumor suppressors as well as promoters of tumor progression. This is mostly dependent on the biological context. Critical to this dichotomous role is the notion that FOXOs are central in preserving cellular homeostasis in redox control, genomic stability, and protein turnover. From this perspective, a paradoxical role in both suppressing and enhancing tumor progression can be reconciled. As many small molecules targeting the PI3K pathway are developed by big pharmaceutical companies and/or are in clinical trial, we will discuss what the consequences may be for the context-dependent role of FOXOs in tumor development in treatment options based on active PI3K signaling in tumors.

Abstract
To explore the effect of microRNA-374a (miR-374a) on chemical hypoxia-induced pheochromocytoma (PC12) cell damage by mediating growth arrest and the DNA damage-45 alpha (GADD45α)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway. PC12 cells were divided into a Control group (no treatment), Model group (treated with CoCl2 for 24 h), negative control (NC) group (transfected with miR-374a negative control sequence and treated with CoCl2 for 24 h), and miR-374a mimic group (transfected with miR-374a mimics and treated with CoCl2 for 24 h). The viability and apoptosis of PC12 cells were determined by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry, while the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) content were assessed by Rh123 and dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) methods. The expression of miR-374a and GADD45α/JNK proteins was detected using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot. A significant decrease was found in the survival rate, MMP and miR-374a expression, while an increase was shown in the ROS content and GADD45α and p-JNK expression in hypoxic PC12 cells (all P < 0.05). A luciferase reporter gene assay demonstrated that GADD45α is the target gene of miR-374a. When transfected with miR-374a mimics, hypoxic PC12 cells showed an obvious elevation in survival rate and MMP but a great reduction in cell apoptosis and ROS content, as well as in the expression of GADD45α and p-JNK proteins (all P < 0.05). MiR-374a can protect PC12 cells against hypoxia-induced injury by inhibiting the GADD45α/JNK pathway, enhancing cell viability, suppressing oxidative stress, and inhibiting cell apoptosis, thereby becoming a potential therapeutic target for hypoxic damage.

Abstract
The FOXO3 and FOXM1 forkhead box transcription factors, functioning downstream of the essential PI3K-Akt, Ras-ERK and JNK/p38MAPK signalling cascades, are crucial for cell proliferation, differentiation, cell survival, senescence, DNA damage repair and cell cycle control. The development of resistance to both conventional and newly emerged molecularly targeted therapies is a major challenge confronting current cancer treatment in the clinic. Intriguingly, the mechanisms of resistance to ‘classical’ cytotoxic chemotherapeutics and to molecularly targeted therapies are invariably linked to deregulated signalling through the FOXO3 and FOXM1 transcription factors. This is owing to the involvement of FOXO3 and FOXM1 in the regulation of genes linked to crucial drug action-related cellular processes, including stem cell renewal, DNA repair, cell survival, drug efflux, and deregulated mitosis. A better understanding of the mechanisms regulating the FOXO3-FOXM1 axis, as well as their downstream transcriptional targets and functions, may render these proteins reliable and early diagnostic/prognostic factors as well as crucial therapeutic targets for cancer treatment and importantly, for overcoming chemotherapeutic drug resistance.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential coenzyme for various physiological processes including energy metabolism, DNA repair, cell growth, and cell death. Many of these pathways are typically dysregulated in cancer cells, making NAD+ an intriguing target for cancer therapeutics. NAD+ is mainly synthesized by the NAD+ salvage pathway in cancer cells, and not surprisingly, the pharmacological targeting of the NAD+ salvage pathway causes cancer cell cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. Several studies have described the precise consequences of NAD+ depletion on cancer biology, and have demonstrated that NAD+ depletion results in depletion of energy levels through lowered rates of glycolysis, reduced citric acid cycle activity, and decreased oxidative phosphorylation. Additionally, depletion of NAD+ causes sensitization of cancer cells to oxidative damage by disruption of the anti-oxidant defense system, decreased cell proliferation, and initiation of cell death through manipulation of cell signaling pathways (e.g., SIRT1 and p53). Recently, studies have explored the effect of well-known cancer therapeutics in combination with pharmacological depletion of NAD+ levels, and found in many cases a synergistic effect on cancer cell cytotoxicity. In this context, we will discuss the effects of NAD+ salvage pathway inhibition on cancer cell biology and provide insight on this pathway as a novel anti-cancer therapeutic target.

Abstract
FOXO3a and FOXM1 are two forkhead transcription factors with antagonistic roles in cancer and DNA damage response. FOXO3a functions like a typical tumour suppressor, whereas FOXM1 is a potent oncogene aberrantly overexpressed in genotoxic resistant cancers. FOXO3a not only represses FOXM1 expression but also its transcriptional output. Recent research has provided novel insights into a central role for FOXO3a and FOXM1 in DNA damage response. The FOXO3a-FOXM1 axis plays a pivotal role in DNA damage repair and the accompanied cellular response through regulating the expression of genes essential for DNA damage sensing, mediating, signalling and repair as well as for senescence, cell cycle and cell death control. In this manner, the FOXO3a-FOXM1 axis also holds the key to cell fate decision in response to genotoxic therapeutic agents and controls the equilibrium between DNA repair and cell termination by cell death or senescence. As a consequence, inhibition of FOXM1 or reactivation of FOXO3a in cancer cells could enhance the efficacy of DNA damaging cancer therapies by decreasing the rate of DNA repair and cell survival while increasing senescence and cell death. Conceptually, targeting FOXO3a and FOXM1 may represent a promising molecular therapeutic option for improving the efficacy and selectivity of DNA damage agents, particularly in genotoxic agent resistant cancer. In addition, FOXO3a, FOXM1 and their downstream transcriptional targets may also be reliable diagnostic biomarkers for predicting outcome, for selecting therapeutic options, and for monitoring treatments in DNA-damaging agent therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (Nampt) is the rate-limiting enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the mammalian nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) salvage pathway. Aberrant NAD metabolism was associated with oncogenic signal transduction, suggesting the critical roles of Nampt in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Additionally, Nampt can be secreted out of the cell, and this extracellular form of Nampt (eNampt) was shown to induce inflammation and angiogenesis due to its cytokine activity, which may also be involved in carcinogenesis. AREAS COVERED This article reviews recent advances in the studies of Nampt in carcinogenesis, with a special highlight on Nampt inhibitors and future clinical application, including cancer diagnosis, prognosis and therapy. Expert commentary: Nampt not only maintains the balance of cellular metabolism, but also has a profound influence on multiple aspects of carcinogenesis. Therefore, elucidation of these mechanisms opens the door for future clinical applications targeting this protein. Additional studies are needed to address important questions including the relationship between extracellular Nampt and carcinogenesis.

Changes in subcellular localization of visfatin in human colorectal HCT-116 carcinoma cell line after cytochalasin B treatment. Eur J Histochem 2014; 58:2408. [PMID: 25308845 PMCID: PMC4194393 DOI: 10.4081/ejh.2014.2408] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2014] [Revised: 06/23/2014] [Accepted: 06/24/2014] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of the study was to assess the expression and subcellular localization of visfatin in HCT-116 colorectal carcinoma cells after cytokinesis failure using Cytochalasin B (CytB) and the mechanism of apoptosis of cells after CytB. We observed translocation of visfatin’s antigen in cytB treated colorectal carcinoma HCT-116 cells from cytosol to nucleus. Statistical and morphometric analysis revealed significantly higher area-related numerical density visfatin-bound nano-golds in the nuclei of cytB-treated HCT-116 cells compared to cytosol. Reverse relation to visfatin subcellular localization was observed in un-treated HCT-116 cells. The total amount of visfatin protein and visfatin mRNA level in HCT-116 cells was also decreased after CytB treatment. Additionally, CytB significantly decreased cell survival, increased levels of G2/M fractions, induced bi-nuclei formation as well as increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) level in HCT-116 cells. CytB treatment showed cytotoxic effect that stem from oxidative stress and is connected with the changes in the cytoplasmic/nuclear amount of visfatin in HCT-116 cells.

Abstract
Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) regulates inflammation, aging (life span and health span), calorie restriction/energetics, mitochondrial biogenesis, stress resistance, cellular senescence, endothelial functions, apoptosis/autophagy, and circadian rhythms through deacetylation of transcription factors and histones. SIRT1 level and activity are decreased in chronic inflammatory conditions and aging, in which oxidative stress occurs. SIRT1 is regulated by a NAD(+)-dependent DNA repair enzyme, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1), and subsequent NAD(+) depletion by oxidative stress may have consequent effects on inflammatory and stress responses as well as cellular senescence. SIRT1 has been shown to undergo covalent oxidative modifications by cigarette smoke-derived oxidants/aldehydes, leading to posttranslational modifications, inactivation, and protein degradation. Furthermore, oxidant/carbonyl stress-mediated reduction of SIRT1 leads to the loss of its control on acetylation of target proteins including p53, RelA/p65, and FOXO3, thereby enhancing the inflammatory, prosenescent, and apoptotic responses, as well as endothelial dysfunction. In this review, the mechanisms of cigarette smoke/oxidant-mediated redox posttranslational modifications of SIRT1 and its roles in PARP1 and NF-κB activation, and FOXO3 and eNOS regulation, as well as chromatin remodeling/histone modifications during inflammaging, are discussed. Furthermore, we have also discussed various novel ways to activate SIRT1 either directly or indirectly, which may have therapeutic potential in attenuating inflammation and premature senescence involved in chronic lung diseases.

Abstract
Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is the most conserved mammalian NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylase that has emerged as a key metabolic sensor in various metabolic tissues. In response to different environmental stimuli, SIRT1 directly links the cellular metabolic status to the chromatin structure and the regulation of gene expression, thereby modulating a variety of cellular processes such as energy metabolism and stress response. Recent studies have shown that SIRT1 controls both glucose and lipid metabolism in the liver, promotes fat mobilization and stimulates brown remodeling of the white fat in white adipose tissue, controls insulin secretion in the pancreas, senses nutrient availability in the hypothalamus, influences obesity-induced inflammation in macrophages, and modulates the activity of circadian clock in metabolic tissues. This review focuses on the role of SIRT1 in regulating energy metabolism at different metabolic tissues.
