Epigenetic regulation of diverse regulated cell death modalities in cardiovascular disease: Insights into necroptosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis, and cuproptosis. Redox Biol 2024; 76:103321. [PMID: 39186883 PMCID: PMC11388786 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2024.103321] [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: 07/13/2024] [Revised: 08/17/2024] [Accepted: 08/18/2024] [Indexed: 08/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Cell death constitutes a critical component of the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases. A growing array of non-apoptotic forms of regulated cell death (RCD)-such as necroptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, and cuproptosis-has been identified and is intimately linked to various cardiovascular conditions. These forms of RCD are governed by genetically programmed mechanisms within the cell, with epigenetic modifications being a common and crucial regulatory method. Such modifications include DNA methylation, RNA methylation, histone methylation, histone acetylation, and non-coding RNAs. This review recaps the roles of DNA methylation, RNA methylation, histone modifications, and non-coding RNAs in cardiovascular diseases, as well as the mechanisms by which epigenetic modifications regulate key proteins involved in cell death. Furthermore, we systematically catalog the existing epigenetic pharmacological agents targeting novel forms of RCD and their mechanisms of action in cardiovascular diseases. This article aims to underscore the pivotal role of epigenetic modifications in precisely regulating specific pathways of novel RCD in cardiovascular diseases, thus offering potential new therapeutic avenues that may prove more effective and safer than traditional treatments.

Abstract
Pathogenic ACAD9 variants cause complex I deficiency. Patients presenting in infancy unresponsive to riboflavin have high mortality. A six-month-old infant presented with riboflavin unresponsive lactic acidosis and life-threatening cardiomyopathy. Treatment with high dose bezafibrate and nicotinamide riboside resulted in marked clinical improvement including reduced lactate and NT-pro-brain type natriuretic peptide levels, with stabilized echocardiographic measures. After a long stable period, the child succumbed from cardiac failure with infection at 10.5 months. Therapy was well tolerated. Peak bezafibrate levels exceeded its EC50. The clinical improvement with this treatment illustrates its potential, but weak PPAR agonist activity of bezafibrate limited its efficacy.

Abstract
Sirtuins, as NAD+-dependent deacetylases, are widely found in eubacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes, and they play key roles in regulating cellular functions. Among these, SIRT7 stands out as a member discovered relatively late and studied less extensively. It is localized within the nucleus and displays enzymatic activity as an NAD+-dependent deacetylase, targeting a diverse array of acyl groups. The role of SIRT7 in important cellular processes like gene transcription, cellular metabolism, cellular stress responses, and DNA damage repair has been documented in a number of studies conducted recently. These studies have also highlighted SIRT7's strong correlation with human diseases like aging, cancer, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, a variety of inhibitors against SIRT7 have been reported, indicating that targeting SIRT7 may be a promising strategy for inhibiting tumor growth. The purpose of this review is to thoroughly look into the structure and function of SIRT7 and to explore its potential value in clinical applications, offering an essential reference for research in related domains.

Abstract
Mitochondria are responsible for maintaining cellular energy levels, and play a major role in regulating homeostasis, which ensures physiological function from the molecular to whole animal. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is the major protein deacetylase of mitochondria. SIRT3 serves as a nutrient sensor; under conditions of mild metabolic stress, SIRT3 activity is increased. Within the mitochondria, SIRT3 regulates every complex of the electron transport chain, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) and urea cycles, as well as the mitochondria membrane potential, and other free radical scavengers. This article reviews the role of SIRT3 in regulating homeostasis, and thus physiological function. We discuss the role of SIRT3 in regulating reactive oxygen species (ROS), ATP, immunological function and mitochondria dynamics.

Abstract
Hearing loss is a health crisis that affects more than 60 million Americans. Currently, sodium thiosulfate is the only drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to counter hearing loss. Sirtuins were proposed as therapeutic targets in the search for new compounds or drugs to prevent or cure age-, noise-, or drug-induced hearing loss. Sirtuins are proteins involved in metabolic regulation with the potential to ameliorate sensorineural hearing loss. The mammalian sirtuin family includes seven members, SIRT1-7. This paper is a literature review on the sirtuins and their protective roles in sensorineural hearing loss. Literature search on the NCBI PubMed database and NUsearch included the keywords 'sirtuin' and 'hearing'. Studies on sirtuins without relevance to hearing and studies on hearing without relevance to sirtuins were excluded. Only primary research articles with data on sirtuin expression and physiologic auditory tests were considered. The literature review identified 183 records on sirtuins and hearing. After removing duplicates, eighty-one records remained. After screening for eligibility criteria, there were forty-eight primary research articles with statistically significant data relevant to sirtuins and hearing. Overall, SIRT1 (n = 29) was the most studied sirtuin paralog. Over the last two decades, research on sirtuins and hearing has largely focused on age-, noise-, and drug-induced hearing loss. Past and current studies highlight the role of sirtuins as a mediator of redox homeostasis. However, more studies need to be conducted on the involvement of SIRT2 and SIRT4-7 in hearing protection.

YZL-51N functions as a selective inhibitor of SIRT7 by NAD + competition to impede DNA damage repair. iScience 2024; 27:110014.

Abstract
The NAD+-dependent deacetylase SIRT7 is a pivotal regulator of DNA damage response (DDR) and a promising drug target for developing cancer therapeutics. However, limited progress has been made in SIRT7 modulator discovery. Here, we applied peptide-based deacetylase platforms for SIRT7 enzymatic evaluation and successfully identified a potent SIRT7 inhibitor YZL-51N. We initially isolated bioactive YZL-51N from cockroach (Periplaneta americana) extracts and then developed the de novo synthesis of this compound. Further investigation revealed that YZL-51N impaired SIRT7 enzymatic activities through occupation of the NAD+ binding pocket. YZL-51N attenuated DNA damage repair induced by ionizing radiation (IR) in colorectal cancer cells and exhibited a synergistic anticancer effect when used in combination with etoposide. Overall, our study not only identified YZL-51N as a selective SIRT7 inhibitor from insect resources, but also confirmed its potential use in combined chemo-radiotherapy by interfering in the DNA damage repair process.

Inhibition of SIRT7 overcomes sorafenib acquired resistance by suppressing ERK1/2 phosphorylation via the DDX3X-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome in hepatocellular carcinoma. Drug Resist Updat 2024; 73:101054.

Abstract
AIMS Sirtuin 7 (SIRT7) plays an important role in tumor development, and has been characterized as a potent regulator of cellular stress. However, the effect of SIRT7 on sorafenib acquired resistance remains unclear and a possible anti-tumor mechanism beyond this process in HCC has not been clarified. We examined the therapeutic potential of SIRT7 and determined whether it functions synergistically with sorafenib to overcome chemoresistance. METHODS Cancer Genome Atlas-liver HCC data and unbiased gene set enrichment analyses were used to identify SIRT7 as a potential effector molecule in sorafenib acquired resistance. Two types of SIRT7 chemical inhibitors were developed to evaluate its therapeutic properties when synergized with sorafenib. Mass spectrometry was performed to discover a direct target of SIRT7, DDX3X, and DDX3X deacetylation levels and protein stability were explored. Moreover, an in vivo xenograft model was used to confirm anti-tumor effect of SIRT7 and DDX3X chemical inhibitors combined with sorafenib. RESULTS SIRT7 inhibition mediated DDX3X depletion can re-sensitize acquired sorafenib resistance by disrupting NLRP3 inflammasome assembly, finally suppressing hyperactive ERK1/2 signaling in response to NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated IL-1β inhibition. CONCLUSIONS SIRT7 is responsible for sorafenib acquired resistance, and its inhibition would be beneficial when combined with sorafenib by suppressing hyperactive pro-cell survival ERK1/2 signaling.

Abstract
Regular quiescence and activation are important for the function of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSC), multipotent stem cells that are widely used in the clinic due to their capabilities in tissue repair and inflammatory disease treatment. TNF-α is previously reported to regulate BMMSC functions, including multilineage differentiation and immunoregulation. The present study demonstrates that TNF-α impedes quiescence and promotes the activation of BMMSC in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, the TNF-α-induced expression of KAT2A promotes the succinylation of VCP at K658, which inhibits the interaction between VCP and MFN1 and thus inhibits mitophagy. Furthermore, activated BMMSC exhibits stronger fracture repair and immunoregulation functions in vivo. This study contributes to a better understanding of the mechanisms of BMMSC quiescence and activation and to improving the effectiveness of BMMSC in clinical applications.

Loss of hepatic Sirt7 accelerates diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced formation of hepatocellular carcinoma by impairing DNA damage repair. BMB Rep 2024; 57:98-103. [PMID: 38303560 PMCID: PMC10910089] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The mammalian sirtuin family (SIRT1-SIRT7) has shown diverse biological roles in the regulation and maintenance of genome stability under genotoxic stress. SIRT7, one of the least studied sirtuin, has been demonstrated to be a key factor for DNA damage response (DDR). However, conflicting results have proposed that Sirt7 is an oncogenic factor to promote transformation in cancer cells. To address this inconsistency, we investigated properties of SIRT7 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) regulation under DNA damage and found that loss of hepatic Sirt7 accelerated HCC progression. Specifically, the number, size, and volume of hepatic tumor colonies in diethylnitrosamine (DEN) injected Sirt7-deficient liver were markedly enhanced. Further, levels of HCC progression markers and pro-inflammatory cytokines were significantly elevated in the absence of hepatic Sirt7, unlike those in the control. In chromatin, SIRT7 was stabilized and colocalized to damage site by inhibiting the induction of γH2AX under DNA damage. Together, our findings suggest that SIRT7 is a crucial factor for DNA damage repair and that hepatic loss-of-Sirt7 can promote genomic instability and accelerate HCC development, unlike early studies describing that Sirt7 is an oncogenic factor [BMB Reports 2024; 57(2): 98-103].

Ubiquitin ligase RNF20 coordinates sequential adipose thermogenesis with brown and beige fat-specific substrates. Nat Commun 2024; 15:940.

Abstract
In mammals, brown adipose tissue (BAT) and inguinal white adipose tissue (iWAT) execute sequential thermogenesis to maintain body temperature during cold stimuli. BAT rapidly generates heat through brown adipocyte activation, and further iWAT gradually stimulates beige fat cell differentiation upon prolonged cold challenges. However, fat depot-specific regulatory mechanisms for thermogenic activation of two fat depots are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF20 orchestrates adipose thermogenesis with BAT- and iWAT-specific substrates. Upon cold stimuli, BAT RNF20 is rapidly downregulated, resulting in GABPα protein elevation by controlling protein stability, which stimulates thermogenic gene expression. Accordingly, BAT-specific Rnf20 suppression potentiates BAT thermogenic activity via GABPα upregulation. Moreover, upon prolonged cold stimuli, iWAT RNF20 is gradually upregulated to promote de novo beige adipogenesis. Mechanistically, iWAT RNF20 mediates NCoR1 protein degradation, rather than GABPα, to activate PPARγ. Together, current findings propose fat depot-specific regulatory mechanisms for temporal activation of adipose thermogenesis.

Abstract
Aging is a chronic yet natural physiological decline of the body. Throughout life, humans are continuously exposed to a variety of exogenous and endogenous stresses, which engender various counteractive responses at the cellular, tissue, organ, as well as organismal levels. The compromised cellular and tissue functions that occur because of genetic factors or prolonged stress (or even the stress response) may accelerate aging. Over the last two decades, the sirtuin (SIRT) family of lysine deacylases has emerged as a key regulator of longevity in a variety of organisms. SIRT7, the most recently identified member of the SIRTs, maintains physiological homeostasis and provides protection against aging by functioning as a watchdog of genomic integrity, a dynamic sensor and modulator of stresses. SIRT7 decline disrupts metabolic homeostasis, accelerates aging, and increases the risk of age-related pathologies including cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, pulmonary and renal disorders, inflammatory diseases, and cancer, etc. Here, we present SIRT7 as the seventh key to unlock the mystery of aging, and its specific manipulation holds great potential to ensure healthiness and longevity.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is characterized by the development of intimal plaque, thrombosis, and stenosis of the vessel lumen causing decreased blood flow and hypoxia precipitating angina. Chronic inflammation in the stable plaque renders it unstable and rupture of unstable plaques results in the formation of emboli leading to hypoxia/ischemia to the organs by occluding the terminal branches and precipitate myocardial infarction and stroke. Such delibitating events could be controlled by the strategies that prevent plaque development or plaque stabilization. Despite the use of statins to stabilize plaques, there is a need for novel targets due to continuously increasing cases of cardiovascular events. Sirtuins (SIRTs), a family of signaling proteins, are involved in sustaining genome integrity, DNA damage response and repair, modulating oxidative stress, aging, inflammation, and energy metabolism. SIRTs play a critical role in modulating inflammation and involves in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. The role of SIRTs in relation to atherosclerosis and plaque vulnerability is scarcely discussed in the literature. Since SIRTs regulate oxidative stress, inflammation, and aging, they may also regulate plaque progression and vulnerability as these molecular mechanisms underlie the pathogenesis of plaque development, progression, and vulnerability. This review critically discusses the role of SIRTs in plaque progression and vulnerability and the possibility of targeting SIRTs to attenuate plaque rupture, focusing on the highlights in genomics, molecular pathways, and cell types involved in the underlying pathophysiology.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT1-7 in mammals) are a family of NAD+-dependent lysine deacetylases and deacylases that regulate diverse biological processes, including metabolism, stress responses, and aging. SIRT7 is the least well-studied member of the sirtuins, but accumulating evidence has shown that SIRT7 plays critical roles in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism by modulating many target proteins in white adipose tissue, brown adipose tissue, and liver tissue. This review focuses on the emerging roles of SIRT7 in glucose and lipid metabolism in comparison with SIRT1 and SIRT6. We also discuss the possible implications of SIRT7 inhibition in the treatment of metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and obesity.

Abstract
Cancer metabolism has emerged as a major target for cancer therapy, while the state of mitochondrial drugs has remained largely unexplored, partly due to an inadequate understanding of various mitochondrial functions in tumor contexts. Here, we report that HOMER3 is highly expressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is closely correlated with poor prognosis. Lung cancer cells with low levels of HOMER3 are found to show significant mitochondrial dysfunction, thereby suppressing their proliferation and metastasis in vivo and in vitro. At the mechanistic level, we demonstrate that HOMER3 and platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase 1b catalytic subunit 3 cooperate to upregulate the level of GA-binding protein subunit beta-1 (GABPB1), a key transcription factor involved in mitochondrial biogenesis, to control mitochondrial inner membrane genes and mitochondrial function. Concurrently, low levels of HOMER3 and its downstream target GABPB1 led to mitochondrial dysfunction and decreased proliferation and invasive activity of lung cancer cells, which raises the possibility that targeting mitochondrial synthesis is an important and promising therapeutic approach for NSCLC.

Abstract
The sirtuins are NAD+ -dependent lysine deacylases, comprising seven isoforms (SIRT1-7) in humans, which are involved in the regulation of a plethora of biological processes, including gene expression and metabolism. The sirtuins share a common hydrolytic mechanism but display preferences for different ϵ-N-acyllysine substrates. SIRT7 deacetylates targets in nuclei and nucleoli but remains one of the lesser studied of the seven isoforms, in part due to a lack of chemical tools to specifically probe SIRT7 activity. Here we expressed SIRT7 and, using small-angle X-ray scattering, reveal SIRT7 to be a monomeric enzyme with a low degree of globular flexibility in solution. We developed a fluorogenic assay for investigation of the substrate preferences of SIRT7 and to evaluate compounds that modulate its activity. We report several mechanism-based SIRT7 inhibitors as well as de novo cyclic peptide inhibitors selected from mRNA-display library screening that exhibit selectivity for SIRT7 over other sirtuin isoforms, stabilize SIRT7 in cells, and cause an increase in the acetylation of H3 K18.

Abstract
Differentiated cell nuclei can be reprogrammed after nuclear transfer (NT) to oocytes and the produced NT embryos can give rise to cloned animals. However, development of NT embryos is often hampered by recurrent reprogramming failures, including the incomplete activation of developmental genes, yet specific genes responsible for the arrest of NT embryos are not well understood. Here, we searched for developmentally important genes among the reprogramming-resistant H3K9me3-repressed genes and identified Alyref and Gabpb1 by siRNA screening. Gene knockout of Alyref and Gabpb1 by the CRISPR/Cas9 system resulted in early developmental arrest in mice. Alyref was needed for the proper formation of inner cell mass by regulating Nanog, whereas Gabpb1 deficiency led to apoptosis. The supplement of Alyref and Gabpb1 mRNA supported efficient preimplantation development of cloned embryos. Alyref and Gabpb1 were silenced in NT embryos partially because of the repressed expression of Klf16 by H3K9me3. Thus, our study shows that the H3K9me3-repressed genes contain developmentally required genes, and the incomplete activation of such genes results in preimplantation arrest of cloned embryos.

Abstract
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) play important roles in the regulation of protein function. Acetylation and deacetylation are among the most important PTMs. SIRT7 is a relatively understudied member of the sirtuin family, but recent studies have revealed that it plays a regulatory role in a variety of cellular activities, such as genome stabilization and repair, gene translation, ribosome production and other important processes. Here, we provide a list of the functions and mechanisms of SIRT7 in various organelles and show the important role of SIRT7 in maintaining normal cell function.

Abstract
Sirtuins are highly conserved proteins that perform very important functions in different cellular processes. Notably, SIRT7 is the least studied human sirtuin, but it is known to be involved in a wide variety of processes in both health and disease. In this way, SIRT7 activity-regulating molecules could be beneficial for the treatment of relevant diseases such as cardiovascular and bone diseases, where SIRT7 levels are reduced, or obesity and cancer, where they are increased. In this work, using bioinformatic methods, the sequence and structure of SIRT7 orthologs in a wide variety of organisms were analyzed. Thus, the catalytic domain was found to be quite conserved (83.23% identity) and key residues such as D118, Y119, R120, D170, H187, N189, C198, C225, C228, V273, G298, F239 and V237 were identified. Furthermore, a phylogenetic tree was constructed where SIRT7 orthologs from mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and arachnids were found to cluster in different groups. Finally, predicted three-dimensional structures showed a classic structure of the central catalytic region of most sirtuins, while the flanking N- and C-terminal regions were unique to each phylogenetic group. All this helps to understand a little more how SIRT7 works and gives clues for the future design and development of small molecules that benefit human and animal health.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Aging results in a decline in neural stem cells (NSCs), neurogenesis, and cognitive function, and evidence is emerging to demonstrate disrupted adult neurogenesis in the hippocampus of patients with several neurodegenerative disorders. Here, single-cell RNA sequencing of the dentate gyrus of young and old mice shows that the mitochondrial protein folding stress is prominent in activated NSCs/neural progenitors (NPCs) among the neurogenic niche, and it increases with aging accompanying dysregulated cell cycle and mitochondrial activity in activated NSCs/NPCs in the dentate gyrus. Increasing mitochondrial protein folding stress results in compromised NSC maintenance and reduced neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus, neural hyperactivity, and impaired cognitive function. Reducing mitochondrial protein folding stress in the dentate gyrus of old mice improves neurogenesis and cognitive function. These results establish the mitochondrial protein folding stress as a driver of NSC aging and suggest approaches to improve aging-associated cognitive decline.

Abstract
Macroautophagy (autophagy) utilizes a serial of receptors to specifically recognize and degrade autophagy cargoes, including damaged organelles, to maintain cellular homeostasis. Upstream signals spatiotemporally regulate the biological functions of selective autophagy receptors through protein post-translational modifications (PTM) such as phosphorylation. However, it is unclear how acetylation directly controls autophagy receptors in selective autophagy. Here, we report that an ER-phagy receptor FAM134B is acetylated by CBP acetyltransferase, eliciting intense ER-phagy. Furthermore, FAM134B acetylation promoted CAMKII-mediated phosphorylation to sustain a mode of milder ER-phagy. Conversely, SIRT7 deacetylated FAM134B to temper its activities in ER-phagy to avoid excessive ER degradation. Together, this work provides further mechanistic insights into how ER-phagy receptor perceives environmental signals for fine-tuning of ER homeostasis and demonstrates how nucleus-derived factors are programmed to control ER stress by modulating ER-phagy.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that regulate the deacetylation of numerous histone and non-histone proteins, thereby affecting a wide range of cellular processes. Deregulation of HDAC expression or activity is often associated with several pathologies, suggesting potential for targeting these enzymes for therapeutic purposes. For example, HDAC expression and activity are higher in dystrophic skeletal muscles. General pharmacological blockade of HDACs, by means of pan-HDAC inhibitors (HDACi), ameliorates both muscle histological abnormalities and function in preclinical studies. A phase II clinical trial of the pan-HDACi givinostat revealed partial histological improvement and functional recovery of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) muscles; results of an ongoing phase III clinical trial that is assessing the long-term safety and efficacy of givinostat in DMD patients are pending. Here we review the current knowledge about the HDAC functions in distinct cell types in skeletal muscle, identified by genetic and -omic approaches. We describe the signaling events that are affected by HDACs and contribute to muscular dystrophy pathogenesis by altering muscle regeneration and/or repair processes. Reviewing recent insights into HDAC cellular functions in dystrophic muscles provides new perspectives for the development of more effective therapeutic approaches based on drugs that target these critical enzymes.

Abstract
Acetyl-coenzyme A (Ac-CoA) is a core metabolite with essential roles throughout cell physiology. These functions can be classified into energetics, biosynthesis, regulation and acetylation of large and small molecules. Ac-CoA is essential for oxidative metabolism of glucose, fatty acids, most amino acids, ethanol, and of free acetate generated by endogenous metabolism or by gut bacteria. Ac-CoA cannot cross lipid bilayers, but acetyl groups from Ac-CoA can shuttle across membranes as part of carrier molecules like citrate or acetylcarnitine, or as free acetate or ketone bodies. Ac-CoA is the basic unit of lipid biosynthesis, providing essentially all of the carbon for the synthesis of fatty acids and of isoprenoid-derived compounds including cholesterol, coenzyme Q and dolichols. High levels of Ac-CoA in hepatocytes stimulate lipid biosynthesis, ketone body production and the diversion of pyruvate metabolism towards gluconeogenesis and away from oxidation; low levels exert opposite effects. Acetylation changes the properties of molecules. Acetylation is necessary for the synthesis of acetylcholine, acetylglutamate, acetylaspartate and N-acetyl amino sugars, and to metabolize/eliminate some xenobiotics. Acetylation is a major post-translational modification of proteins. Different types of protein acetylation occur. The most-studied form occurs at the epsilon nitrogen of lysine residues. In histones, lysine acetylation can alter gene transcription. Acetylation of other proteins has diverse, often incompletely-documented effects. Inborn errors related to Ac-CoA feature a broad spectrum of metabolic, neurological and other features. To date, a small number of studies of animals with inborn errors of CoA thioesters has included direct measurement of acyl-CoAs. These studies have shown that low levels of tissue Ac-CoA correlate with the development of clinical signs, hinting that shortage of Ac-CoA may be a recurrent theme in these conditions. Low levels of Ac-CoA could potentially disrupt any of its roles.

Abstract
Sirtuins are identified as NAD+-dependent class III histone deacetylases (HDAC) and are involved in a variety of cellular activities, including energy metabolism, DNA repair, epigenetics, gene expression, cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Using genetically modified model organisms, sirtuins are proved to be one of the most conserved aging-regulatory and longevity-promoting genes/pathways among species. Of the seven sirtuins, SIRT7 is the only sirtuin that localizes in the nucleolus. SIRT7 senses endogenous and environmental stress to maintain physiological homeostasis. Sirt7 deficient and transgenic mice provide a useful tool to understand the mechanisms of aging and related pathologies. In this chapter, we summarized the most widely applied methods to understand the physiopathological function of SIRT7 in mice.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can be ameliorated by calorie restriction, which leads to the suppressed somatotroph axis. Paradoxically, the suppressed somatotroph axis is associated with patients with NAFLD and is correlated with the severity of fibrosis. How the somatotroph axis becomes dysregulated and whether the repressed somatotroph axis impacts liver damage during the progression of NAFLD are unclear. Here, we identify a regulatory branch of the hepatic integrated stress response (ISR), which represses the somatotroph axis in hepatocytes through ATF3, resulting in enhanced cell survival and reduced cell proliferation. In mouse models of NAFLD, the ISR represses the somatotroph axis, leading to reduced apoptosis and inflammation but decreased hepatocyte proliferation and exacerbated fibrosis in the liver. NAD+ repletion reduces the ISR, rescues the dysregulated somatotroph axis, and alleviates NAFLD. These results establish that the hepatic ISR suppresses the somatotroph axis to control cell fate decisions and liver damage in NAFLD.

Abstract
Brown adipose tissue plays a central role in the regulation of the energy balance by expending energy to produce heat. NAD+-dependent deacylase sirtuins have widely been recognized as positive regulators of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis. However, here we reveal that SIRT7, one of seven mammalian sirtuins, suppresses energy expenditure and thermogenesis by regulating brown adipose tissue functions. Whole-body and brown adipose tissue-specific Sirt7 knockout mice have higher body temperature and energy expenditure. SIRT7 deficiency increases the protein level of UCP1, a key regulator of brown adipose tissue thermogenesis. Mechanistically, we found that SIRT7 deacetylates insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2, an RNA-binding protein that inhibits the translation of Ucp1 mRNA, thereby enhancing its inhibitory action on Ucp1. Furthermore, SIRT7 attenuates the expression of batokine genes, such as fibroblast growth factor 21. In conclusion, we propose that SIRT7 serves as an energy-saving factor by suppressing brown adipose tissue functions.

Abstract
Long-term alcohol use is a confirmed risk factor of liver cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis. Multiple mechanisms responsible for alcohol related tumorigenesis have been proposed, including toxic reactive metabolite production, oxidative stress and fat accumulation. However, mechanisms underlying alcohol-mediated liver cancer metastasis remain largely unknown. We have previously demonstrated that SIRT7 regulates chemosensitivity by altering a p53-dependent pathway in human HCC. In the current study, we further revealed that SIRT7 is a critical factor in promoting liver cancer metastasis. SIRT7 expression is associated with disease stage and high SIRT7 predicts worse overall and disease-free survival. Overexpression of SIRT7 promotes HCC cell migration and EMT while knockdown of SIRT7 showed opposite effects. Mechanistically, we found that SIRT7 suppresses E-Cadherin expression through FOXO3-dependent promoter binding and H3K18 deacetylation. Knockdown of FOXO3 abolished the suppressive effect of SIRT7 on E-cadherin transcription. More importantly, we identified that alcohol treatment upregulates SIRT7 and suppresses E-cadherin expression via a CYP2E/ROS axis in hepatocytes both in vitro and in vivo. Antioxidant treatment in primary hepatocyte or CYP2E1-/- mice fed with alcohol impaired those effects. Reducing SIRT7 activity completely abolished alcohol-mediated promotion of liver cancer metastasis in vivo. Taken together, our data reveal that SIRT7 is a pivotal regulator of alcohol-mediated HCC metastasis.

NMN ameliorated radiation induced damage in NRF2-deficient cell and mice via regulating SIRT6 and SIRT7. Free Radic Biol Med 2022; 193:342-353. [PMID: 36252808 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2022.10.267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Risk of cancer often increases with aging, and radiotherapy is an essential component of treatment. As for abdominal and pelvic cancer, radiotherapy always inevitably causes injury to intestines through direct DNA damage or overload of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) has been identified as a key protective factor against ionizing-radiation induced damage through promoting DNA damage repair and antioxidant modulation. However, the level of NRF2 always decreases with aging. Here, we demonstrated that NRF2 deficiency aggravated cellular DNA damage and the intestinal pathological lesion. Overexpression of SIRT6 or SIRT7 could improve cell proliferation and protect against radiation injury in NRF2 knock-out (KO) cells by modulating oxidative-stress and DNA damage repair. Consistently, supplement of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), the agonist of sirtuins, increased the level of SIRT6 and SIRT7 in NRF2 KO cells, concomitant with reduced cellular ROS level and ameliorated DNA damage. In vivo, long-term oral administration of NMN attenuated the radiation-induced injury of jejunum, increased the number of intestinal stem cells, and promoted the ability of intestinal proliferation in NRF2-/- mice. Together, our results indicated that SIRT6 and SIRT7 had involved in scavenging ROS and repairing DNA damage, and NMN could be a promising candidate for preventing radiation damage when NRF2 is lacking.

SIRT7 Deficiency Protects against Aging-Associated Glucose Intolerance and Extends Lifespan in Male Mice. Cells 2022; 11:cells11223609. [PMID: 36429037 PMCID: PMC9688483 DOI: 10.3390/cells11223609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT1-7 in mammals) are evolutionarily conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent lysine deacetylases/deacylases that regulate fundamental biological processes including aging. In this study, we reveal that male Sirt7 knockout (KO) mice exhibited an extension of mean and maximum lifespan and a delay in the age-associated mortality rate. In addition, aged male Sirt7 KO mice displayed better glucose tolerance with improved insulin sensitivity compared with wild-type (WT) mice. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) enhances insulin sensitivity and extends lifespan when it is overexpressed. Serum levels of FGF21 were markedly decreased with aging in WT mice. In contrast, this decrease was suppressed in Sirt7 KO mice, and the serum FGF21 levels of aged male Sirt7 KO mice were higher than those of WT mice. Activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) stimulates Fgf21 transcription, and the hepatic levels of Atf4 mRNA were increased in aged male Sirt7 KO mice compared with WT mice. Our findings indicate that the loss of SIRT7 extends lifespan and improves glucose metabolism in male mice. High serum FGF21 levels might be involved in the beneficial effect of SIRT7 deficiency.

Abstract
The redox coenzymes viz., oxidized β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) by way of generation of optimal reducing power and cellular energy currency (ATP), control a staggering array of metabolic reactions. The prominent cellular contenders for NAD+ utilization, inter alia, are sirtuins (SIRTs) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1), which have been significantly implicated in ischemic stroke (IS) pathogenesis. NAD+ and FAD are also two crucial epigenetic enzyme-required metabolites mediating histone deacetylation and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation through SIRTs and PARP-1 respectively, and demethylation through FAD-mediated lysine specific demethylase activity. These enzymes and post-translational modifications impinge on the components of neurovascular unit, primarily neurons, and elicit diverse functional upshots in an ischemic brain. These could be circumstantially linked with attendant cognitive deficits and behavioral outcomes in post-stroke epoch. Parsing out the contribution of NAD+/FAD-synthesizing and utilizing enzymes towards epigenetic remodeling in IS setting, together with their cognitive and behavioral associations, combined with possible therapeutic implications will form the crux of this review.

Abstract
Besides the canonical function in ribosome biogenesis, there have been significant recent advances towards the fascinating roles of the nucleolus in stress response, cell destiny decision and disease progression. Nucleolar stress, an emerging concept describing aberrant nucleolar structure and function as a result of impaired rRNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis under stress conditions, has been linked to a variety of signaling transductions, including but not limited to Mdm2-p53, NF-κB and HIF-1α pathways. Studies have uncovered that nucleolus is a stress sensor and signaling hub when cells encounter various stress conditions, such as nutrient deprivation, DNA damage and oxidative and thermal stress. Consequently, nucleolar stress plays a pivotal role in the determination of cell fate, such as apoptosis, senescence, autophagy and differentiation, in response to stress-induced damage. Nucleolar homeostasis has been involved in the pathogenesis of various chronic diseases, particularly tumorigenesis, neurodegenerative diseases and metabolic disorders. Mechanistic insights have revealed the indispensable role of nucleolus-initiated signaling in the progression of these diseases. Accordingly, the intervention of nucleolar stress may pave the path for developing novel therapies against these diseases. In this review, we systemically summarize recent findings linking the nucleolus to stress responses, signaling transduction and cell-fate decision, set the spotlight on the mechanisms by which nucleolar stress drives disease progression, and highlight the merit of the intervening nucleolus in disease treatment.

USP17L2-SIRT7 axis regulates DNA damage repair and chemoresistance in breast cancer cells. Breast Cancer Res Treat 2022; 196:31-44.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sirtuin7 (SIRT7), as a member of the sirtuin and NAD+-dependent protein-modifying enzyme family, plays an important role in regulating cellular metabolism, stress responses, tumorigenesis, and aging. Ubiquitination and deubiquitination are reversible post-translational modifications that regulate protein stability, enzyme activity, protein-protein interactions, and cellular signaling transduction. However, whether SIRT7 is regulated by deubiquitination signaling is unclear. This study aims to elucidate the molecular mechanism of SIRT7 via deubiquitination signaling. METHODS USP17L2 or SIRT7-targeting shRNAs were used to deplete USP17L2 or SIRT7. Western blot was applied to assess the effects of USP17L2 or SIRT7 depletion. A co-immunoprecipitation assay was used to detect the interaction relationship. Cell Counting Kit-8 assays were applied to assess the viability of breast cancer cells. An immunohistochemistry assay was employed to detect the protein level in samples from breast cancer patients, and the TCGA database was applied to analyze the survival rate of breast cancer patients. Statistical analyses were performed with the Student's t test (two-tailed unpaired) and χ2 test. RESULTS We find that the deubiquitinase USP17L2 interacts with and deubiquitinates SIRT7, thereby increasing SIRT7 protein stability. In addition, USP17L2 regulates DNA damage repair through SIRT7. Furthermore, SIRT7 polyubiquitination is increased by knocking down of USP17L2, which leads to cancer cells sensitizing to chemotherapy. In breast cancer patient samples, high expression of USP17L2 is correlated with increased levels of SIRT7 protein. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that the USP17L2-SIRT7 axis is the new regulator in DNA damage response and chemo-response, suggesting that USP17L2 may be a prognostic factor and a potential therapeutic target in breast cancer. CONCLUSION Our results highlighted that USP17L2 regulates the chemoresistance of breast cancer cells in a SIRT7-dependent manner. Moreover, the role of USP17L2 as a potential therapeutic target in breast cancer and a prognostic factor for patients was elucidated.

Abstract
Sirtuin-7 (Sirt7) is a nuclear NAD+-dependent deacetylase with a broad spectrum of biological functions. Sirt7 overexpression is linked to several pathological states and enhances anticancer drug resistance, making the enzyme a promising target for the development of novel therapeutics. Despite a plethora of reported in vivo functions, the biochemical characterization of recombinant Sirt7 remains inadequate for the development of novel drug candidates. Here, we conduct an extensive biochemical analysis of Sirt7 using newly developed binding and kinetic assays to reveal that the enzyme preferentially interacts with and is activated by nucleosomes. Sirt7 activation by nucleic acids alone is effective toward long-chain acylated hydrophobic substrates, while only nucleosome binding leads to 105-fold activation of the deacetylase activity. Using endogenous chromatin and recombinant acetylated nucleosomes, we reveal that Sirt7 is one of the most efficient deacetylases in the sirtuin family and that its catalytic activity is limited by the rate of dissociation from deacetylated nucleosomes.

Abstract
Lysine acetylation is a reversible and dynamic post-translational modification that play vital roles in regulating multiple cellular processes including aging. However, acetylome-wide analysis in the aging process remains poorly studied in mammalian tissues. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a hub metabolite, benefits healthspan at least in part due to the activation of Sirtuins, a family of NAD+-consuming deacetylases, indicating changes in acetylome. Here, we combine two antibodies for the enrichment of acetylated peptides and perform label-free quantitative acetylomic analysis of mouse livers during natural aging and upon the treatment of beta-nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a NAD+ booster. Our study describes previously unknown acetylation sites and reveals the acetylome-wide dynamics with age as well as upon the treatment of NMN. We discover protein acetylation events as potential aging biomarkers. We demonstrate that the life-beneficial effect of NMN could be partially reflected by the changes in age-related protein acetylation. Our quantitative assessment indicates that NMN has mild effects on acetylation sites previously reported as substrates of Sirtuins. Collectively, our data analyzes protein acetylation with age, laying critical foundation for the functional study of protein post-translational modification essential for healthy aging and perhaps disease conditions.

Abstract
Alterations in cellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) levels have been observed in multiple lifestyle and age-related medical conditions. This has led to the hypothesis that dietary supplementation with NAD+ precursors, or vitamin B3s, could exert health benefits. Among the different molecules that can act as NAD+ precursors, Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) has gained most attention due to its success in alleviating and treating disease conditions at the pre-clinical level. However, the clinical outcomes for NR supplementation strategies have not yet met the expectations generated in mouse models. In this review we aim to provide a comprehensive view on NAD+ biology, what causes NAD+ deficits and the journey of NR from its discovery to its clinical development. We also discuss what are the current limitations in NR-based therapies and potential ways to overcome them. Overall, this review will not only provide tools to understand NAD+ biology and assess its changes in disease situations, but also to decide which NAD+ precursor could have the best therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Sirtuins are an evolutionarily conserved family of regulatory proteins that function in an NAD+ -dependent manner. The mammalian family of sirtuins is composed of seven histone deacetylase and ADP-ribosyltransferase proteins (SIRT1-SIRT7) that are found throughout the different cellular compartments of the cell. Sirtuins in the brain have received considerable attention in cognition due to their role in a plethora of metabolic and age-related diseases and their ability to induce neuroprotection. More recently, sirtuins have been shown to play a role in normal physiological cognitive function, and aberrant sirtuin function is seen in pathological cellular states. Sirtuins are believed to play a role in cognition through enhancing synaptic plasticity, influencing epigenetic regulation, and playing key roles in molecular pathways involved with oxidative stress affecting mitochondrial function. This review aims to discuss recent advances in the understanding of the role of mammalian sirtuins in cognitive function and the therapeutic potential of targeting sirtuins to ameliorate cognitive deficits in neurological disorders.

Abstract
O-linked N-acetyl-glucosamine glycosylation (O-GlcNAcylation) of intracellular proteins is a dynamic process broadly implicated in age-related disease, yet it remains uncharacterized whether and how O-GlcNAcylation contributes to the natural aging process. O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and the opposing enzyme O-GlcNAcase (OGA) control this nutrient-sensing protein modification in cells. Here, we show that global O-GlcNAc levels are increased in multiple tissues of aged mice. In aged liver, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) is among the most heavily O-GlcNAcylated proteins. CPS1 O-GlcNAcylation is reversed by calorie restriction and is sensitive to genetic and pharmacological manipulations of the O-GlcNAc pathway. High glucose stimulates CPS1 O-GlcNAcylation and inhibits CPS1 activity. Liver-specific deletion of OGT potentiates CPS1 activity and renders CPS1 irresponsive to further stimulation by a prolonged fasting. Our results identify CPS1 O-GlcNAcylation as a key nutrient-sensing regulatory step in the urea cycle during aging and dietary restriction, implying a role for mitochondrial O-GlcNAcylation in nutritional regulation of longevity.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic or metabolic associated fatty liver disease (NAFLD/MAFLD) is a hepatic reflection of metabolic derangements characterized by excess fat deposition in the hepatocytes. Identifying metabolic regulatory nodes in fatty liver pathology is essential for effective drug targeting. Fatty liver is often associated with circadian rhythm disturbances accompanied with alterations in physical and feeding activities. In this regard, both sirtuins and clock machinery genes have emerged as critical metabolic regulators in maintaining liver homeostasis. Knockouts of either sirtuins or clock genes result in obesity associated with the fatty liver phenotype. Sirtuins (SIRT1-SIRT7) are a highly conserved family of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases, protecting cells from metabolic stress by deacetylating vital proteins associated with lipid metabolism. Circadian rhythm is orchestrated by oscillations in expression of master regulators (BMAL1 and CLOCK), which in turn regulate rhythmic expression of clock-controlled genes involved in lipid metabolism. The circadian metabolite, NAD+ , serves as a crucial link connecting clock genes to sirtuin activity. This is because, NAMPT which is a rate limiting enzyme in NAD+ biosynthesis is transcriptionally regulated by the clock genes and NAD+ in turn is a cofactor regulating the deacetylation activity of sirtuins. Intriguingly, on one hand the core circadian clock regulates the sirtuin activity and on the other hand the activated sirtuins regulate the acetylation status of clock proteins thereby affecting their transcriptional functions. Thus, the Clock-NAD+-Sirtuin connection represents a novel "feedback loop" circuit that regulates the metabolic machinery. The current review underpins the importance of NAD+ on the sirtuin and clock connection in preventing fatty liver disorder.

Abstract
Aging is the result of the accumulation of a wide variety of molecular and cellular damage over time. This has been associated with a number of features termed hallmarks of aging, including genomic instability, loss of proteostasis, telomere attrition, dysregulated nutrient sensing, mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, stem cell exhaustion, and impaired intercellular communication. On the other hand, sirtuins are enzymes with an important role in aging and life extension, of which humans have seven paralogs (SIRT1 to SIRT7). SIRT7 is the least studied sirtuin to date, but it has been reported to serve important functions, such as promoting ribosomal RNA expression, aiding in DNA damage repair, and regulating chromatin compaction. Several studies have established a close relationship between SIRT7 and age-related processes, but knowledge in this area is still scarce. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to analyze how SIRT7 is associated with each of the hallmarks of aging, as well as with some of age-associated diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, obesity, osteoporosis, and cancer.

Abstract
Angiogenesis plays a pivotal role in the recovery of neurological function after ischemia stroke. Herein, we investigated the effect of trilobatin (TLB) on angiogenesis after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI). The effect of TLB on angiogenesis after CIRI were investigated in mouse brain microvascular endothelium bEnd.3 cells and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)-induced CIRI rat model. The cell proliferation and angiogenesis were observed using immunofluorescence staining. The cell cycle, expressions of cell cycle-related proteins and SIRT 1-7 were determined by flow cytometry and western blot, respectively. The binding affinity of TLB with SIRT7 was predicted by molecular docking. The results showed that TLB concentration-dependently promoted bEnd.3 cell proportion in the S-phase. TLB significantly increased the protein expressions of SIRT6, SIRT7, and VEGFA, but not affected SIRT1-SIRT5 protein expressions. Moreover, TLB not only dramatically alleviated neurological impairment after CIRI, but also enhanced post-stroke neovascularization and newly formed functional vessels in cerebral ischemic penumbra. Furthermore, TLB up-regulated the protein expressions of CDK4, cyclin D1, VEGFA and its receptor VEGFR-2. Intriguingly, TLB not only directly bound to SIRT7, but also increased SIRT7 expression at day 28. Our findings reveal that TLB promotes cerebral microvascular endothelial cells proliferation, and facilitates angiogenesis after CIRI via mediating SIRT7/VEGFA signaling pathway in rats. Therefore, TLB might be a novel restorative agent to rescue ischemia stroke.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disorders and associated renal diseases account for the main cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, necessitating the development of novel effective approaches for the prevention and treatment of cardiorenal diseases. Mammalian sirtuins (SIRTs) function as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent protein/histone deacetylases. Seven members of SIRTs share a highly invariant catalytic core domain responsible for the specific enzymatic activity. Intriguingly, the broad distribution of SIRTs and alternative isoforms implicate its distinct functions in diverse cardiac and renal cells and tissue types. Notably, SIRT7 has been shown to exert beneficial effects in cardiorenal physiology and pathophysiology via modulation of senescence, DNA damage repair, ribosomal RNA synthesis, protein biosynthesis, angiogenesis, apoptosis, superoxide generation, cardiorenal metabolism, and dysfunction. Furthermore, SIRT7 has emerged as a critical modulator of a broad range of cellular activities including oxidative stress, inflammation response, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and mitochondrial homeostasis, which are all of great significance in postponing the progression of cardiorenal diseases. More importantly, SIRT7 has been implicated in cardiorenal hypertrophy, fibrosis, remodeling, heart failure, atherosclerosis as well as renal acid-base and electrolyte homeostasis as an essential regulator. In this review, we focus on the involvement in cardiorenal physiology and pathophysiology, diverse actions and underlying mechanisms of the SIRT7 signaling, highlighting its updated research progress in heart failure, atherosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy and other cardiorenal diseases. Targeting SIRT7 signaling could be potentially exploited as a therapeutic strategy aiming to prevent and treat cardiorenal diseases.

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

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT1-7) are distinct histone deacetylases (HDACs) whose activity is determined by cellular metabolic status andnicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ ) levels. HDACs of class III are the members of the SIRT's protein family. SIRTs are the enzymes that modulate mitochondrial activity and energy metabolism. SIRTs have been linked to a number of clinical and physiological operations, such as energy responses to low-calorie availability, aging, stress resistance, inflammation, and apoptosis. Mammalian SIRT2 orthologs have been identified as SIRT1-7 that are found in several subcellular sections, including the cytoplasm (SIRT1, 2), mitochondrial matrix (SIRT3, 4, 5), and the core (SIRT1, 2, 6, 7). For their deacetylase or ADP-ribosyl transferase action, all SIRTs require NAD+ and are linked to cellular energy levels. Evolutionarily, SIRT1 is related to yeast's SIRT2 as well as received primary attention in the circulatory system. An endogenous protein, SIRT1 is involved in the development of heart failure and plays a key role in cell death and survival. SIRT2 downregulation protects against ischemic-reperfusion damage. Increase in human longevity is caused by an increase in SIRT3 expression. Cardiomyocytes are also protected by SIRT3 from oxidative damage and aging, as well as suppressing cardiac hypertrophy. SIRT4 and SIRT5 perform their roles in the heart. SIRT6 has also been linked to a reduction in heart hypertrophy. SIRT7 is known to be involved in the regulation of stress responses and apoptosis in the heart.

Abstract
Aging is typified by a progressive decline in mitochondrial activity and stress resilience. Here, we review how mitochondrial stress pathways have pleiotropic effects on cellular and systemic homeostasis, which can comprise protective or detrimental responses during aging. We describe recent evidence arguing that defects in these conserved adaptive pathways contribute to aging and age-related diseases. Signaling pathways regulating the mitochondrial unfolded protein response, mitochondrial membrane dynamics, and mitophagy are discussed, emphasizing how their failure contributes to heteroplasmy and de-regulation of key metabolites. Our current understanding of how these processes are controlled and interconnected explains how mitochondria can widely impact fundamental aspects of aging.

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

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction causes severe congenital cardiac abnormalities and prenatal/neonatal lethality. The lack of sufficient knowledge regarding how mitochondrial abnormalities affect cardiogenesis poses a major barrier for the development of clinical applications that target mitochondrial deficiency-induced inborn cardiomyopathies. Mitochondrial morphology, which is regulated by fission and fusion, plays a key role in determining mitochondrial activity. Dnm1l encodes a dynamin-related GTPase, Drp1, which is required for mitochondrial fission. To investigate the role of Drp1 in cardiogenesis during the embryonic metabolic shift period, we specifically inactivated Dnm1l in second heart field-derived structures. Mutant cardiomyocytes in the right ventricle (RV) displayed severe defects in mitochondrial morphology, ultrastructure and activity. These defects caused increased cell death, decreased cell survival, disorganized cardiomyocytes and embryonic lethality. By characterizing this model, we reveal an AMPK-SIRT7-GABPB axis that relays the reduced cellular energy level to decrease transcription of ribosomal protein genes in cardiomyocytes. We therefore provide the first genetic evidence in mouse that Drp1 is essential for RV development. Our research provides further mechanistic insight into how mitochondrial dysfunction causes pathological molecular and cellular alterations during cardiogenesis.

Abstract
Optimal therapeutic strategies for liver cancer patients remain challenging due to the high recurrence rate after surgical resection and chemotherapy resistance. Emerging evidence has shown that epigenetic factor SIRT7 is involved in various aspects of cancer biology, while inactive SIRT7 reverses human cancer phenotype and suppresses tumor growth. In the present study, we predicted the SIRT7 structure by using the fold recognition (or threading) method and performed structure-based virtual screening to develop specific SIRT7 inhibitor by docking 939319 structurally diverse compounds with SIRT proteins. Compounds with high affinities to SIRT7 but low affinities to other SIRT proteins were chosen as candidates of specific SIRT7 inhibitor. Our leading compounds 2800Z and 40569Z showed strong interaction with SIRT7 protein, and specifically inhibited SIRT7 deacetylation activity in vitro. Our docking results also revealed that ARG-120, TRP-126, and HIS-187 were critical sites responsible for interaction of SIRT7 with small molecules. Mutations in the aforementioned sites significantly abolished interaction and inhibitory effects of compounds to SIRT7. In addition, in vivo data indicated that compounds 2800Z and 40569Z were able to induce apoptosis and increase chemosensitivity to sorafenib in human liver cancer. Our findings demonstrated targeting SIRT7 may offer novel therapeutic options for cancer management, and the value of compounds 2800Z and 40569Z as chemical probes for the study of SIRT7 biological functions as well as starting leads for the development of new therapeutic options against liver cancer.

Abstract
Infertility is rarely life threatening, however, it poses a serious global health issue posing far-reaching socio-economic impacts affecting 12–15% of couples worldwide where male factor accounts for 70%. Functional spermatogenesis which is the result of several concerted coordinated events to produce sperms is at the core of male fertility, Alternative splicing and microRNA (miRNA) mediated RNA silencing (RNAi) constitute two conserved post-transcriptional gene (re)programming machinery across species. The former by diversifying transcriptome signature and the latter by repressing target mRNA activity orchestrate a spectrum of testicular events, and their dysfunctions has several implications in male infertility. This review recapitulates the knowledge of these mechanistic events in regulation of spermatogenesis and testicular homoeostasis. In addition, miRNA payload in sperm, vulnerable to paternal inputs, including unhealthy diet, infection and trauma, creates epigenetic memory to initiate intergenerational phenotype. Naive zygote injection of sperm miRNAs from stressed father recapitulates phenotypes of offspring of stressed father. The epigenetic inheritance of paternal pathologies through miRNA could be a tantalizing avenue to better appreciate ‘Paternal Origins of Health and Disease’ and the power of tiny sperm.

Abstract
Insulin resistance is a cornerstone of obesity-related complications such as type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. A high rate of lipolysis is known to be associated with insulin resistance, and inhibiting adipose tissue lipolysis improves obesity-related insulin resistance. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT]) signaling through serotonin receptor 2B (HTR2B) in adipose tissues ameliorates insulin resistance by reducing lipolysis in visceral adipocytes. Chronic high-fat diet (HFD) feeding increased Htr2b expression in epididymal white adipose tissue, resulting in increased HTR2B signaling in visceral white adipose tissue. Moreover, HTR2B expression in white adipose tissue was increased in obese humans and positively correlated with metabolic parameters. We further found that adipocyte-specific Htr2b-knockout mice are resistant to HFD-induced insulin resistance, visceral adipose tissue inflammation, and hepatic steatosis. Enhanced 5-HT signaling through HTR2B directly activated lipolysis through phosphorylation of hormone-sensitive lipase in visceral adipocytes. Moreover, treatment with a selective HTR2B antagonist attenuated HFD-induced insulin resistance, visceral adipose tissue inflammation, and hepatic steatosis. Thus, adipose HTR2B signaling could be a potential therapeutic target for treatment of obesity-related insulin resistance.
