Abstract
Ageing is an inevitable phenomenon which affects the cellular to the organism level in the progression of the time. Oxidative stress and inflammation are now widely regarded as the key processes involved in the aging process, which may then cause significant harm to mitochondrial DNA, leading to apoptosis. Normal circulatory function is a significant predictor of disease-free life expectancy. Indeed, disorders affecting the cardiovascular system, which are becoming more common, are the primary cause of worldwide morbidity, disability, and mortality. Cardiovascular aging may precede or possibly underpin overall, age-related health decline. Numerous studies have foundmitochondrial mechanistc approachplays a vital role in the in the onset and development of aging. The D-galactose (D-gal)-induced aging model is well recognized and commonly used in the aging study. In this review we redeposit the association of the previous and current studies on mitochondrial homeostasis and its underlying mechanisms in D-galactose cardiovascular ageing. Further we focus the novel and the treatment strategies to combat the major complication leading to the cardiovascular ageing.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intermittent fasting (IF) has been shown to induce a well-organized adaptive defense against stress inside the cells, which increases the production of anti-oxidant defenses, repair of DNA, biogenesis of mitochondria, and genes that combat inflammation. So, the goal of the current investigation was to identify the effects of IF on rats with adriamycin (ADR)-induced nephropathy and any potential underlying mechanisms. METHODS Four groups of 40 mature Sprague-Dawley male rats were allocated as follow; control, fasting, ADR, and ADR plus fasting. After 8 weeks of ADR administration urine, blood samples and kidneys were taken for assessment of serum creatinine (Cr), BUN, urinary proteins, indicators of oxidative damage (malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH) and Catalase (CAT) levels), histopathological examinations, immunohistochemical examinations for caspase-3, Sirt1, aquaporin2 (AQP2) and real time PCR for antioxidant genes; Nrf2, HO-1 in kidney tissues. RESULTS IF significantly improved serum creatinine, BUN and urinary protein excretion, oxidative stress (low MDA with high CAT and GSH), in addition to morphological damage to the renal tubules and glomeruli as well as caspase-3 production during apoptosis. Moreover, IF stimulates significantly the expression of Sirt1 and Nrf2/HO-1 and AQP2. CONCLUSION AQP2, Sirt1, Nrf2/HO-1 signaling may be upregulated and activated by IF, which alleviates ADR nephropathy. Enhancing endogenous antioxidants, reducing apoptosis and tubulointerstitial damage, and maintaining the glomerular membrane's integrity are other goals.

Abstract
Because most DNA-binding transcription factors (dbTFs), including the architectural regulator CTCF, bind RNA and exhibit di-/multimerization, a central conundrum is whether these distinct properties are regulated post-transcriptionally to modulate transcriptional programs. Here, investigating stress-dependent activation of SIRT1, encoding an evolutionarily-conserved protein deacetylase, we show that induced phosphorylation of CTCF acts as a rheostat to permit CTCF occupancy of low-affinity promoter DNA sites to precisely the levels necessary. This CTCF recruitment to the SIRT1 promoter is eliciting a cardioprotective cardiomyocyte transcriptional activation program and provides resilience against the stress of the beating heart in vivo . Mice harboring a mutation in the conserved low-affinity CTCF promoter binding site exhibit an altered, cardiomyocyte-specific transcriptional program and a systolic heart failure phenotype. This transcriptional role for CTCF reveals that a covalent dbTF modification regulating signal-dependent transcription serves as a previously unsuspected component of the oxidative stress response.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a serious clinical syndrome and a serious development or advanced stage of various heart diseases. Aging is an independent factor that causes pathological damage in cardiomyopathy and participates in the occurrence of HF at the molecular level by affecting mechanisms such as telomere shortening and mitochondrial dysfunction. Epigenetic changes have a significant impact on the aging process, and there is increasing evidence that genetic and epigenetic changes are key features of aging and aging-related diseases. Epigenetic modifications can affect genetic information by changing the chromatin state without changing the DNA sequence. Most of the genetic loci that are highly associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are located in non-coding regions of the genome; therefore, the epigenetic mechanism of CVD has attracted much attention. In this review, we focus on the molecular mechanisms of HF during aging and epigenetic modifications mediating aging-related HF, emphasizing that epigenetic mechanisms play an important role in the pathogenesis of aging-related CVD and can be used as potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers, as well as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Mitochondria are cellular organelles critical for ATP production and are particularly relevant to cardiovascular diseases including heart failure, atherosclerosis, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and cardiomyopathies. With advancing age, even in the absence of clinical disease, mitochondrial homeostasis becomes disrupted (e.g., redox balance, mitochondrial DNA damage, oxidative metabolism, and mitochondrial quality control). Mitochondrial dysregulation leads to the accumulation of damaged and dysfunctional mitochondria, producing excessive reactive oxygen species and perpetuating mitochondrial dysfunction. In addition, mitochondrial DNA, cardiolipin, and N-formyl peptides are potent activators of cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic inflammatory pathways. These age-related mitochondrial changes contribute to the development of cardiovascular diseases. This review covers the impact of aging on mitochondria and links these mechanisms to therapeutic implications for age-associated cardiovascular diseases.

Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:860. [PMID: 38255934 PMCID: PMC10815439 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020860] [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: 12/06/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
A hypercaloric fatty diet predisposes an individual to metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular complications. Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) belongs to the class III histone deacetylase family and sustains anabolism, mitochondrial biogenesis, and fat distribution. Epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT) is involved in inflammation, whilst interscapular brown adipose tissue (iBAT) drives metabolism in obese rodents. Melatonin, a pineal indoleamine, acting as a SIRT1 modulator, may alleviate cardiometabolic damage. In the present study, we morphologically characterized the heart, eWAT, and iBAT in male heterozygous SIRT1+/- mice (HET mice) on a high-fat diet (60%E lard) versus a standard rodent diet (8.5% E fat) and drinking melatonin (10 mg/kg) for 16 weeks. Wild-type (WT) male C57Bl6/J mice were similarly fed for comparison. Cardiomyocyte fibrosis and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response worsened in HET mice on a high-fat diet vs. other groups. Lipid peroxidation, ER, and mitochondrial stress were assessed by 4 hydroxy-2-nonenal (4HNE), glucose-regulated protein78 (GRP78), CCAA/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein (CHOP), heat shock protein 60 (HSP60), and mitofusin2 immunostainings. Ultrastructural analysis indicated the prevalence of atypical inter-myofibrillar mitochondria with short, misaligned cristae in HET mice on a lard diet despite melatonin supplementation. Abnormal eWAT adipocytes, crown-like inflammatory structures, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), and iBAT whitening characterized HET mice on a hypercaloric fatty diet and were maintained after melatonin supply. All these data suggest that melatonin's mechanism of action is strictly linked to full SIRT1 expression, which is required for the exhibition of effective antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MicroRNA-30a-5p (miR-30a-5p) has been identified as a marker of heart failure; however, its functional mechanisms in chronic heart failure (CHF) remain unknown. We aim to investigate the role of miR-30a-5p targeting sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) in myocardial remodeling in CHF via the nuclear factor-κB/NOD-like receptor 3 (NF-κB/NLRP3) signaling pathway. METHODS CHF rat models were established using aortic coarctation. The expression of miR-30a-5p, SIRT1, and the NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway-related factors in CHF rats was determined. The CHF rats were then respectively treated with altered miR-30a-5p or SIRT1 to explore their roles in cardiac function, myocardial function, inflammatory response, pathological changes, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The binding relation between miR-30a-5p and SIRT1 was confirmed. RESULTS MiR-30a-5p was upregulated whereas SIRT1 was downregulated in myocardial tissues of CHF rats. MiR-30a-5p inhibition or SIRT1 overexpression improved cardiac and myocardial function, and suppressed the inflammatory response, alleviated pathological changes and inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis in CHF rats. MiR-30a-5p targeted SIRT1 to regulate the NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway. In CHF rats, downregulated miR-30a-5p and silenced SIRT1 could reverse the beneficial effects of downregulated miR-30a-5p. CONCLUSION Inhibited miR-30a-5p inhibits CHF progression via the SIRT1-mediated NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Aging-related cardiovascular disease is influenced by multiple factors, with oxidative stress being a key contributor. Aging-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress exacerbates oxidative stress by impairing mitochondrial function. Furthermore, a decline in antioxidants, including peroxiredoxins (PRDXs), augments the oxidative stress during aging. To explore if ER stress leads to PRDX degradation during aging, young adult (3 mo.) and aged (24 mo.) male mice were studied. Treatment with 4-phenylbutyrate (4-PBA) was used to alleviate ER stress in young adult and aged mice. Aged hearts showed elevated oxidative stress levels compared to young hearts. However, treatment with 4-PBA to attenuate ER stress reduced oxidative stress in aged hearts, indicating that ER stress contributes to increased oxidative stress in aging. Moreover, aging resulted in reduced levels of peroxiredoxin 3 (PRDX3) in mitochondria and peroxiredoxin 4 (PRDX4) in myocardium. While 4-PBA treatment improved PRDX3 content in aged hearts, it did not restore PRDX4 content in aged mice. These findings suggest that ER stress not only leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and increased oxidant stress but also impairs a vital antioxidant defense through decreased PRDX3 content. Additionally, the results suggest that PRDX4 may contribute an upstream role in inducing ER stress during aging.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are a nicotinic adenine dinucleotide (+) -dependent histone deacetylase that regulates critical signaling pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Studies have identified seven mammalian homologs of the yeast SIRT silencing message regulator 2, namely, SIRT1-SIRT7. Recent in vivo and in vitro studies have successfully demonstrated the involvement of SIRTs in key pathways for cell biological function in physiological and pathological processes of the cardiovascular system, including processes including cellular senescence, oxidative stress, apoptosis, DNA damage, and cellular metabolism. Emerging evidence has stimulated a significant evolution in preventing and treating cardiovascular disease (CVD). Here, we review the important roles of SIRTs for the regulatory pathways involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases and their molecular targets, including novel protein post-translational modifications of succinylation. In addition, we summarize the agonists and inhibitors currently identified to target novel specific small molecules of SIRTs. A better understanding of the role of SIRTs in the biology of CVD opens new avenues for therapeutic intervention with great potential for preventing and treating CVD.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a dynamic organelle and a reliable performer for precisely folded proteins. To maintain its function and integrity, arrays of sensory and quality control systems enhance protein folding fidelity and resolve the highest error-prone areas. Yet numerous internal and external factors disrupt its homeostasis and trigger ER stress responses. Cells try to reduce the number of misfolded proteins via the UPR mechanism, and ER-related garbage disposals systems like ER-associated degradation (ERAD), ER-lysosome-associated degradation (ERLAD), ER-Associated RNA Silencing (ERAS), extracellular chaperoning, and autophagy systems, which activates and increase the cell survival rate by degrading misfolded proteins, prevent the aggregated proteins and remove the dysfunctional organelles. Throughout life, organisms must confront environmental stress to survive and develop. Communication between the ER & other organelles, signaling events mediated by calcium, reactive oxygen species, and inflammation are linked to diverse stress signaling pathways and regulate cell survival or cell death mechanisms. Unresolved cellular damages can cross the threshold limit of their survival, resulting in cell death or driving for various diseases. The multifaceted ability of unfolded protein response facilitates the therapeutic target and a biomarker for various diseases, helping with early diagnosis and detecting the severity of diseases.

However, its role in heart failure still remains unclear. In this study, we explored the effects of selenium on heart failure and its possible mechanism. The heart failure models were induced by aortic banding and isoproterenol. H&E, TUNEL and PSR staining were performed to detect the degree of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, apoptosis rates and heart fibrosis, respectively. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect different mRNA levels, and western blot was applied to assess the expressions of relative proteins. Immunofluorescence staining was used to evaluate α-SMA density. We first found that treatment of selenium alleviated heart fibrosis and the development of heart failure but not cardiomyocyte cross sectional areas. Besides, selenium improved heart levels of superoxide dismutase2 (SOD2), glutathione peroxidase (Gpx) and glutathione (GSH) and the activity of SOD, accompanied by decreased apoptosis rate. In addition, our in vitro study has shown that selenium reduced mRNA levels of collagen Ⅰ and collagen III, expressions of a-SMA, p-AKT/AKT and p-GSK-3β/ GSK-3β, apoptosis rates and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in H9C2 cardio-myoblasts treated with TGF-β1. Moreover, the level of Sirt1 was found to be up-regulated by selenium which effects were weakened after the administration of small interfering RNA (siRNA)-Sirt1 or EX527 (inhibitor of Sirt1). Our current results have demonstrated that the protective effects of selenium on heart hypertrophy is through the regulation of Sirt1 and AKT/GSK-3β pathway.

Abstract
By definition, heart failure (HF) is a human pathological condition affecting the structure and function of all organs in the body, and the brain is not an exception to that. Failure of the heart to pump enough blood centrally and peripherally is at the foundation of HF patients' inability to attend even the most ordinary daily activities and progressive deterioration of their cognitive capacity. What is more, between heart and brain exists a bidirectional relationship that goes well beyond hemodynamics and concerns bioelectric and endocrine signaling. This increasingly consolidated evidence makes the scenario even more complex. Studies have mainly chased how HF impairs cognition without focusing much on preventive measures, notably cardio-cerebral health proxies. Here, we aim to provide a brief account of known and hypothetical factors that may explain how exercise can help obviate cognitive dysfunction associated with HF in its different forms. As we shall see, there is a stringent need for a deeper grasp of such mechanisms. Indeed, gaining this new knowledge will automatically shed new light on the inner workings of HF itself, thus resulting in more effective prevention and treatment of this escalating syndrome.

Abstract
The incidence and prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) continue to increase worldwide remaining as a major public health burden. CKD eventually progresses to end-stage kidney failure and patients with CKD have high morbidity and mortality. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a NAD+-dependent deacetylases, has significant renal protective effects through its regulation of fibrosis, apoptosis, and senescence, oxidative stress, inflammation and aging process. The renal protective effects of Sirt1 have been described in many kidney diseases such as diabetic kidney disease and HIV-related kidney disease. SIRT1 also has protective effects against vascular calcification and therefore could be developed as a therapy for both CKD and CKD complications. In this narrative review, we will give an overview of the recent progress on the role of SIRT1 and its downstream pathways in CKD. We will also discuss potential therapeutic approach by activating SIRT1-related pathway in patients with CKD. The purpose is to hope to provide some insights on the future direction of the research in the field of SIRT1 for CKD.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) represents a major public health concern with increasing prevalence among aging populations, with multifactorial pathophysiology including inflammation, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and fibrosis, among others. Lately, the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, originally destined for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, have revolutionized the treatment of HF. In this review article, we provide the milestones and the latest mechanistic evidence of SGLT2 inhibition in HF. Owing to the results of experimental studies, several pleiotropic effects of SGLT2 inhibitors have been proposed, including the restoration of autophagy which may be significant in the reversal of the aforementioned HF pathophysiology according to a latest hypotheses. Additional mechanisms consist of the regulation of inflammatory, oxidative, and fibrotic pathways, together with the improvement of endothelial function and reduction of epicardial adipose tissue. Other than their role as antidiabetic agents, a reduction in heart failure hospitalizations has been noted following their use in clinical trials, irrespective of DM status and degree of systolic dysfunction. Upcoming randomized trials are expected to additional clinical and mechanistic evidence regarding the diverse effects of SGLT2 inhibition across the spectrum of heart failure.

Abstract
Heart aging is the main susceptible factor to coronary heart disease and significantly increases the risk of heart failure, especially when the aging heart is suffering from ischemia-reperfusion injury. Numerous studies with NAD+ supplementations have suggested its use in anti-aging treatment. However, systematic reviews regarding the overall role of NAD+ in cardiac aging are scarce. The relationship between NAD+ signaling and heart aging has yet to be clarified. This review comprehensively summarizes the current studies on the role of NAD+ signaling in delaying heart aging from the following aspects: the influence of NAD+ supplementations on the aging heart; the relationship and cross-talks between NAD+ signaling and other cardiac aging-related signaling pathways; Importantly, the therapeutic potential of targeting NAD+ in delaying heart aging will be discussed. In brief, NAD+ plays a vital role in delaying heart aging. However, the abnormalities such as altered glucose and lipid metabolism, oxidative stress, and calcium overload could also interfere with NAD+ function in the heart. Therefore, the specific physiopathology of the aging heart should be considered before applying NAD+ supplementations. We believe that this article will help augment our understanding of heart aging mechanisms. In the meantime, it provides invaluable insights into possible therapeutic strategies for preventing age-related heart diseases in clinical settings.

Lingbao Huxin Pill Alleviates Apoptosis and Inflammation at Infarct Border Zone through SIRT1-Mediated FOXO1 and NF- κ B Pathways in Rat Model of Acute Myocardial Infarction. Chin J Integr Med 2022; 28:330-338. [PMID: 34826042 DOI: 10.1007/s11655-021-2881-0] [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] [Accepted: 08/04/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether Lingbao Huxin Pill (LBHX) protects against acute myocardial infarction (AMI) at the infarct border zone (IBZ) of myocardial tissue by regulating apoptosis and inflammation through the sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)-mediated forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) and nuclear factor-κ B (NF-κ B) signaling pathways. METHODS Six-week-old Wistar rats with normal diet were randomized into the sham, the model, Betaloc (0.9 mg/kg daily), LBHX-L (0.45 mg/kg daily), LBHX-M (0.9 mg/kg daily), LBHX-H (1.8 mg/kg daily), and LBHX+EX527 (0.9 mg/kg daily) groups according to the method of random number table, 13 in each group. In this study, left anterior descending coronary artery (LADCA) ligation was performed to induce an AMI model in rats. The myocardial infarction area was examined using a 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride solution staining assay. A TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay was conducted to assess cardiomyocyte apoptosis in the IBZ. The histopathology of myocardial tissue at the IBZ was assessed with Heidenhain, Masson and hematoxylineosin (HE) staining assays. The expression levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1 β, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). The mRNA expressions of SIRT1 and FOXO1 were detected by real-time qPCR (RT-qPCR). The protein expressions of SIRT1, FOXO1, SOD2, BAX and NF- κ B p65 were detected by Western blot analysis. RESULTS The ligation of the LADCA successfully induced an AMI model. The LBHX pretreatment reduced the infarct size in the AMI rats (P<0.01). The TUNEL assay revealed that LBHX inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis at the IBZ. Further, the histological examination showed that the LBHX pretreatment decreased the ischemic area of myocardial tissue (P<0.05), myocardial interstitial collagen deposition (P<0.05) and inflammation at the IBZ. The ELISA results indicated that LBHX decreased the serum levels of inflammatory cytokines in the AMI rats (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Furthermore, Western blot analysis revealed that the LBHX pretreatment upregulated the protein levels of SIRT1, FOXO1 and SOD2 (P<0.05) and downregulated NF- κ B p65 and BAX expressions (P<0.05). The RT-qPCR results showed that LBHX increased the SIRT1 mRNA and FOXO1 mRNA levels (P<0.05). These protective effects, including inhibiting apoptosis and alleviating inflammation in the IBZ, were partially abolished by EX527, an inhibitor of SIRT1. CONCLUSION LBHX could protect against AMI by suppressing apoptosis and inflammation in AMI rats and the SIRT1-mediated FOXO1 and NF- κ B signaling pathways were involved in the cardioprotection effect of LBHX.

Abstract
Medical advances and the availability of diagnostic tools have considerably increased life expectancy and, consequently, the elderly segment of the world population. As age is a major risk factor in cardiovascular disease (CVD), it is critical to understand the changes in cardiac structure and function during the aging process. The phenotypes and molecular mechanisms of cardiac aging include several factors. An increase in oxidative stress is a major player in cardiac aging. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is an important mechanism for maintaining physiological processes; its generation is regulated by a system of antioxidant enzymes. Oxidative stress occurs from an imbalance between ROS production and antioxidant defenses resulting in the accumulation of free radicals. In the heart, ROS activate signaling pathways involved in myocyte hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis, contractile dysfunction, and inflammation thereby affecting cell structure and function, and contributing to cardiac damage and remodeling. In this manuscript, we review recent published research on cardiac aging. We summarize the aging heart biology, highlighting key molecular pathways and cellular processes that underlie the redox signaling changes during aging. Main ROS sources, antioxidant defenses, and the role of dysfunctional mitochondria in the aging heart are addressed. As metabolism changes contribute to cardiac aging, we also comment on the most prevalent metabolic alterations. This review will help us to understand the mechanisms involved in the heart aging process and will provide a background for attractive molecular targets to prevent age-driven pathology of the heart. A greater understanding of the processes involved in cardiac aging may facilitate our ability to mitigate the escalating burden of CVD in older individuals and promote healthy cardiac aging.

Abstract
Background: Lipotoxicity causes endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, leading to cell apoptosis. Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) regulates gene transcription and cellular metabolism. In this study, we investigated the role of Sirt1 in palmitate-induced ER stress. Methods: Both H9c2 myoblasts and heart-specific Sirt1 knockout mice fed a palmitate-enriched high-fat diet were used. Results: The high-fat diet induced C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) expression in both Sirt1 knockout mice and controls. The Sirt1 knockout mice showed higher CHOP and ATF4 expression compared to those in the control. Palmitic acid (PA) induced ATF4 and CHOP expression in H9c2 cells. PA-treated H9c2 cells showed decreased cytosolic NAD+/NADH alongside reduced Sirt1′s activity. The H9c2 cells showed increased ATF4 and CHOP expression when transfected with plasmid encoding dominant negative mutant Sirt1. Sirt1 activator SRT1720 did not affect CHOP and ATF4 expression. Although SRT1720 enhanced the nuclear translocation of ATF4, the extent of the binding of ATF4 to the CHOP promoter did not increase in PA treated-H9c2 cells. Conclusion: PA-induced ER stress is mediated through the upregulation of ATF4 and CHOP. Cytosolic NAD+ concentration is diminished by PA-induced ER stress, leading to decreased Sirt1 activity. The Sirt1 activator SRT1720 promotes the nuclear translocation of ATF4 in PA-treated H9c2 cells.

Abstract
Dietary restriction (DR) exerts healthy benefits, including heart functions. However, the cardioprotective role of DR is till controversial among researchers due to the variation of DR conditions. The present study focuses on the protective effect of early-onset DR on cardiac injury using mitochondrial structure and expression of protein associated with mitochondrial homeostasis, autophagy and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) function as measures. METHODS Two-month-old mice were fed with a breeding diet ad libitum (AL) or DR (60% of AL) for 3 (Young) or 20 (Aged) months. RESULTS Body weight increased with aging, whereas DR treatment kept body weight consistent. DR mice exhibited a higher relative heart weight than AL mice. DR mice displayed lower plasma glucose levels, compared with AL groups. Furthermore, Aged-AL, but not Aged-DR mice, had increased collagen content and morphological distortions in the left ventricle (LV). Aged-DR mice had a higher ATP and lower TBARS in the LV than Aged-AL mice. Mitochondrial morphology was detected by electron microscopy; Aged-AL mice had increased abnormal morphology of mitochondria. Treatment with DR reduced abnormal mitochondrial accumulation. Aging elevated the protein expressions of mitochondrial functions and ER-induced apoptosis. Aging downregulated autophagy-related proteins and chaperones in the heart. Dietary restriction reversed those protein expressions. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrated a beneficial effect of early onset DR on cardiac aging. The age-dependent mitochondrial dysfunction and protein quality control dysregulation was significantly reversed by long-term DR, demonstrating a concordance with the beneficial effect in the heart.

Abstract
Chagas disease is a neglected tropical disease caused by the flagellated protozoa Trypanosoma cruzi that affects several million people mainly in Latin American countries. Chagas disease has two phases, which are acute and chronic, both separated by an indeterminate time period in which the infected individual is relatively asymptomatic. The acute phase extends for 40-60 days with atypical and mild symptoms; however, about 30% of the infected patients will develop a symptomatic chronic phase, which is characterized by either cardiac, digestive, neurological, or endocrine problems. Cardiomyopathy is the most important and severe result of Chagas disease, which leads to left ventricular systolic dysfunction, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. Most deaths are due to heart failure (70%) and sudden death (30%) resulting from cardiomyopathy. During the chronic phase, T. cruzi-infected macrophages respond with the production of proinflammatory cytokines and production of superoxide and nitric oxide by the NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) enzymes, respectively. During the chronic phase, myocardial changes are produced as a result of chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, fibrosis, and cell death. The cellular inflammatory response is mainly the result of activation of the NF-κB-dependent pathway, which activates gene expression of inflammatory cytokines, leading to progressive tissue damage. The persisting production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is the result of mitochondrial dysfunction in the cardiomyocytes. In this review, we will discuss inflammation and oxidative damage which is produced in the heart during the chronic phase of Chagas disease and recent evidence on the role of macrophages and the production of proinflammatory cytokines during the acute phase and the origin of macrophages/monocytes during the chronic phase of Chagas disease. We will also discuss the contributing factors and mechanisms leading to the chronic inflammation of the cardiac tissue during the chronic phase of the disease as well as the innate and adaptive host immune response. The contribution of genetic factors to the progression of the chronic inflammatory cardiomyopathy of chronic Chagas disease is also discussed. The secreted extracellular vesicles (exosomes) produced for both T. cruzi and infected host cells can play key roles in the host immune response, and those roles are described. Lastly, we describe potential treatments to attenuate the chronic inflammation of the cardiac tissue, designed to improve heart function in chagasic patients.

Eur J Pharmacol 2021; 910:174498. [PMID: 34506778 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2021.174498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/06/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphodiesterase inhibitors can be used to enhance second messenger signaling to regulate intracellular Ca2+ cycling. This study investigated whether ITI-214, a selective phosphodiesterase-1 inhibitor, modulates intracellular Ca2+ regulation, resulting in a positive inotropic effect in sirtuin 1 (Sirt1)-deficient cardiomyocytes. METHODS Mice with cardiac-specific Sirt1 knockout (Sirt1-/-) were used, with Sirt1flox/flox mice serving as controls. Electromechanical analyses of ventricular tissues were conducted, and we monitored intracellular Ca2+ using Fluo-3 as well as reactive oxygen species production in isolated cardiomyocytes. RESULTS Sirt1-/- ventricles showed prolonged action potential duration at 90% repolarization and increased contractile force after treatment with ITI-214. The rates and sustained durations of burst firing in ventricles were higher and longer, respectively, in Sirt1-/- ventricles than in controls. ITI-214 treatment decreased the rates and shortened the durations of burst firing in Sirt1-/- mice. Sirt1-/- cardiomyocytes showed reduced Ca2+ transient amplitudes and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ stores compared to those in control cardiac myocytes, which was reversed after ITI-214 treatment. SR Ca2+ leakage was larger in Sirt1-/- cardiac myocytes than in control myocytes. ITI-214 reduced SR Ca2+ leakage in Sirt1-/- cardiac myocytes. Increased levels of reactive oxygen species in Sirt1-/- cardiomyocytes compared to those in controls were reduced after ITI-214 treatment. Levels of Ca2+ regulatory proteins, including ryanodine receptor 2, phospholamban, and sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2a were not affected by ITI-214 administration. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that ITI-214 improves intracellular Ca2+ regulation, which in turn exerts inotropic effects and suppresses arrhythmic events in Sirt1-deficient ventricular myocytes.

Abstract
Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a histone deacetylase belonging to the family of Sirtuins, a class of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent enzymes with multiple metabolic functions. SIRT1 localizes in the nucleus and cytoplasm, and is implicated in the regulation of cell survival in response to several stimuli, including metabolic ones. The expression of SIRT1 is associated with lifespan and is reduced with aging both in animal models and in humans, where the lack of SIRT1 is regarded as a potential mediator of age-related cardiovascular diseases. In this review, we will summarize the extensive evidence linking SIRT1 functional and quantitative defects to cellular senescence and aging, with particular regard to their role in determining endothelial dysfunction and consequent cardiovascular diseases. Ultimately, we outline the translational perspectives for this topic, in order to highlight the missing evidence and the future research steps.

Dexmedetomidine inhibits endoplasmic reticulum stress to suppress pyroptosis of hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced intestinal epithelial cells via activating the SIRT1 expression. J Bioenerg Biomembr 2021; 53:655-664.

Abstract
Dexmedetomidine (Dex) can protect the intestine against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced injury. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) pathway, which could be activated by Dex, was reported to inhibit I/R injury. Pyroptosis plays an important role in intestinal diseases. We aimed to investigate whether Dex could attenuate pyroptosis of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced intestinal epithelial cells via activating SIRT1. The intestinal epithelial cell line IEC-6 with or without SIRT1 knockdown after H/R treatment was exposed to Dex, then cell viability, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), apoptosis, pyroptosis, inflammatory cytokines production and SIRT1 expression were detected. Results showed that Dex treatment had no significant effect on IEC-6 cell viability but rescued the H/R-reduced cell viability. The expression of proteins involved in ERS including Grp78, Gadd153 and caspase 12 was enhanced upon H/R stimulation, but was reversely reduced by Dex. The cell apoptosis increased by H/R was also decreased by Dex. Additionally, Dex inhibited pyroptosis and inflammation, which were markedly promoted upon H/R stimulation. The expression of SIRT1, which was reduced after H/R treatment was also partially rescued by Dex. Finally, the above effects of Dex were all blocked by SIRT1 knockdown. In conclusion, Dex could inhibit H/R-induced intestinal epithelial cells ERS, apoptosis and pyroptosis via activating SIRT1 expression.

Abstract
The poultry ovary is used as a classic model to study ovarian biology and ovarian cancer. Stress factors induced oxidative stress to cause follicle atresia, which may be a fundamental reason for the reduction in fertility in older laying hens or in aging women. In the present study, we set out to characterize the relationships between oxidative stress and ovarian function. Layers (62 weeks of age; BW = 1.42 ± 0.12 kg) were injected with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (tBHP) at 0 (CON) and 800 μmol/kg BW (oxidative stress group, OS) for 24 days and the role of melatonin (Mel) on tBHP-induced ovary oxidative stress was assessed through ovary culture in vitro. The OS (800 μmol/kg BW tert-butyl hydroperoxide) treatment decreased the reproduction performance and ovarian follicle numbers. OS decreased the expression of SIRT1 and increased the P53 and FoxO1 expression of the ovary. A decreased Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes ratio, enriched Marinifilaceae (family), Odoribacter (genus) and Bacteroides_plebeius (species) were observed in the cecum of the OS group. Using Mel in vitro enhanced the follicle numbers and decreased the ovary cell apoptosis induced by tBHP. In addition, it increased the expression of SIRT1 and decreased the P53 and FoxO1 expression. These findings indicated that oxidative stress could decrease the laying performance, ovarian function and influence gut microbiota and body metabolites in the layer model, while the melatonin exerts an amelioration the ovary oxidative stress through SIRT1-P53/FoxO1 pathway.

Spermidine inhibits vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease through modulation of SIRT1 signaling pathway. Aging Cell 2021; 20:e13377. [PMID: 33969611 PMCID: PMC8208796 DOI: 10.1111/acel.13377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2020] [Revised: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 04/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Vascular calcification is a common pathologic condition in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and aging individuals. It has been established that vascular calcification is a gene‐regulated biological process resembling osteogenesis involving osteogenic differentiation. However, there is no efficient treatment available for vascular calcification so far. The natural polyamine spermidine has been demonstrated to increase life span and protect against cardiovascular disease. It is unclear whether spermidine supplementation inhibits vascular calcification in CKD. Alizarin red staining and quantification of calcium content showed that spermidine treatment markedly reduced mineral deposition in both rat and human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) under osteogenic conditions. Additionally, western blot analysis revealed that spermidine treatment inhibited osteogenic differentiation of rat and human VSMCs. Moreover, spermidine treatment remarkably attenuated calcification of rat and human arterial rings ex vivo and aortic calcification in rats with CKD. Furthermore, treatment with spermidine induced the upregulation of Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in VSMCs and resulted in the downregulation of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling components, such as activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) and CCAAT/enhancer‐binding protein homologous protein (CHOP). Both pharmacological inhibition of SIRT1 by SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 and knockdown of SIRT1 by siRNA markedly blocked the inhibitory effect of spermidine on VSMC calcification. Consistently, EX527 abrogated the inhibitory effect of spermidine on aortic calcification in CKD rats. We for the first time demonstrate that spermidine alleviates vascular calcification in CKD by upregulating SIRT1 and inhibiting ER stress, and this may develop a promising therapeutic treatment to ameliorate vascular calcification in CKD.

Abstract
The two primary molecular regulators of lifespan are sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) and mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). Each plays a central role in two highly interconnected pathways that modulate the balance between cellular growth and survival. The activation of SIRT1 [along with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator (PGC-1α) and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)] and the suppression of mTORC1 (along with its upstream regulator, Akt) act to prolong organismal longevity and retard cardiac ageing. Both activation of SIRT1/PGC-1α and inhibition of mTORC1 shifts the balance of cellular priorities so as to promote cardiomyocyte survival over growth, leading to cardioprotective effects in experimental models. These benefits may be related to direct actions to modulate oxidative stress, organellar function, proinflammatory pathways, and maladaptive hypertrophy. In addition, a primary shared benefit of both SIRT1/PGC-1α/AMPK activation and Akt/mTORC1 inhibition is the enhancement of autophagy, a lysosome-dependent degradative pathway, which clears the cytosol of dysfunctional organelles and misfolded proteins that drive the ageing process by increasing oxidative and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Autophagy underlies the ability of SIRT1/PGC-1α/AMPK activation and Akt/mTORC1 suppression to extend lifespan, mitigate cardiac ageing, alleviate cellular stress, and ameliorate the development and progression of cardiomyopathy; silencing of autophagy genes abolishes these benefits. Loss of SIRT1/PGC-1α/AMPK function or hyperactivation of Akt/mTORC1 is a consistent feature of experimental cardiomyopathy, and reversal of these abnormalities mitigates the development of heart failure. Interestingly, most treatments that have been shown to be clinically effective in the treatment of chronic heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction have been reported experimentally to exert favourable effects to activate SIRT1/PGC-1α/AMPK and/or suppress Akt/mTORC1, and thereby, to promote autophagic flux. Therefore, the impairment of autophagy resulting from derangements in longevity gene signalling is likely to represent a seminal event in the evolution and progression of cardiomyopathy. ![]()

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Ginseng is a kind of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, known as "king of herbs" and widely used in China, South Korea, and other Asian countries. Ginsenosides are one of active components of Panax ginseng Meyer, which have many pharmacological effects, such as enhancing memory, improving immunity and cardiovascular system, delaying aging, and preventing cancer. AIMS OF THE REVIEW This review aims to summarize the recent findings for ginsenosides targeting Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) signaling pathway for the prevention and treatment of a series of diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS An up-to-August 2020 search was carried out in databases such as PubMed, ScienceDirect, Google Scholar, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and classic books of traditional Chinese medicine using the keywords: "SIRT1", and/or paired with "ginseng", and "ginsenosides". RESULTS SIRT1 is a class-III histone deacetylase (HDAC), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent enzyme, which is deeply involved in a series of pathological processes. Based on specific intracellular localization, SIRT1 has various cytoplasmic and nuclear targets and plays a potential role in energy metabolism, oxidative stress, inflammation, tumorigenesis, and aging. Ginsenosides are generally classified into three groups and microbially transformed to final metabolites. Among of them, most ginsenosides have been reported as SIRT1 activators, especially those ginsenosides with two glucopyranosyl groups on the C-3 position. Importantly, many ginsenosides can be used to prevent and treat oxidative stress, inflammation, aging, tumorigenesis, depression, and others by targeting SIRT1 signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS This paper reviews recent evidences of ginsenosides targeting SIRT1 for the first time, which could provide new insights on the preclinical and clinical researches for ginsenosides against multiple disorders.

Abstract
Ethanol-induced myocardial injury involves multiple pathophysiological processes including apoptosis. Empagliflozin (EMPA), is a novel hypoglycaemic drug which possesses multiple pharmacologically relevant protective effects, including anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. However, whether EMPA treatment has a protective effect on ethanol-induced myocardial injury has not been assessed, to the best of our knowledge. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of EMPA treatment on ethanol-induced myocardial injury and the underlying mechanism. An ethanol-induced myocardial injury model was established by culturing H9c2 cells treated with 200 mmol/L ethanol for 24 hours, and additional groups of ethanol treated cells were also treated with EMPA with or without SIRT1 inhibitors prior to ethanol treatment. Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed using a CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The expression of apoptosis-related proteins was assessed using western blotting. The results showed that EMPA pretreatment resulted in increased cell viability and a decrease in LDH activity. Moreover, EMPA pretreatment significantly reduced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes, and reduced the expression of cleaved caspase 3. Furthermore, EMPA increased the expression of SIRT1, increased the phosphorylation levels of Akt, and reduced the expression of PTEN. EMPA also reduced ethanol-induced mitochondrial apoptosis, increasing the Bcl-2/Bax ratio and the mitochondrial membrane potential. However, the cardioprotective effects of EMPA were abrogated when cells were pretreated with a SIRT1 inhibitor. In conclusion, EMPA can alleviate ethanol-induced myocardial injury by inhibiting mitochondrial apoptosis via the SIRT1/PTEN/Akt pathway. Therefore, EMPA may be a novel target for treatment of ethanol-induced myocardial injury.

Abstract
Inonotus obliquus (IO) is an edible fungus that exerts various biological functions, including anti‑inflammatory, antitumor and immunomodulatory effects. The present study was designed to investigate the role of IO extract (IOE) in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) and determine the exact molecular mechanisms. The left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated to establish the MI/R injury model in rats. IOE exhibited a novel cardioprotective effect, as shown by improvement in cardiac function and decrease in infarct size. Pretreatment with IOE activated antioxidant enzymes in cardiomyocytes, including glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase. IOE pretreatment also induced the upregulation of NAD‑dependent protein deacetylase sirtuin‑1 (SIRT1) and downregulation of glucose‑regulated protein 78, phosphorylated (p‑) protein kinase R‑like endoplasmic reticulum kinase, p‑eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit α, C/EBP homologous protein and caspase‑12. Furthermore, IOE alleviated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress‑induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes by decreasing the mRNA levels of caspase‑12. IOE inhibited apoptosis induced by overexpression of pro‑caspase‑9 and pro‑caspase‑3. In summary, IOE pretreatment protects the heart against MI/R injury through attenuating oxidative damage and suppressing ER stress‑induced apoptosis, which may be primarily due to SIRT1 activation.

Abstract
AIMS The objectives of this study were to explore physiological and pathological changes in the corneas of diabetic rats by intervening in the expression of silent information regulator 1 (Sirt1) and to investigate whether Sirt1 can regulate the activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) while influencing corneal epithelial cell apoptosis under high glucose conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using 8-week old Sprague-Dawley rats, we established a model of type 1 diabetes, with or without Sirt1 intervention. Clinical evaluation was performed once per week. Primary rat corneal epithelial cells (RCECs) were cultured by combining Sirt1 intervention under high glucose conditions. Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), apoptosis, and the expression of Sirt1 and ERS-related proteins were evaluated in rat corneal tissues and RCECs. KEY FINDINGS During the intervention, clinical evaluation of the ocular surface, ROS generation, apoptosis, and protein expression of ERS-related proteins in corneal tissue and cultured RCECs were altered with Sirt1expression levels. SIGNIFICANCE Sirt1 expression influences the pathological progression of diabetic keratopathy, plays an important role in regulating the ERS pathway, and decreases corneal epithelial cell apoptosis.

Packer M. Cardioprotective Effects of Sirtuin-1 and Its Downstream Effectors: Potential Role in Mediating the Heart Failure Benefits of SGLT2 (Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter 2) Inhibitors. Circ Heart Fail 2020; 13:e007197.

Abstract
The cardioprotective effects of SGLT2 (sodium-glucose cotransporter 2) inhibitors may be related to their ability to induce a fasting-like paradigm, which triggers the activation of nutrient deprivation pathways to promote cellular homeostasis. The most distinctive metabolic manifestations of this fasting mimicry are enhanced gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis, which are not seen with other antihyperglycemic drugs. The principal molecular stimulus to gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis is activation of SIRT1 (sirtuin-1) and its downstream mediators: PGC-1α (proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha) and FGF21 (fibroblast growth factor 21). These three nutrient deprivation sensors exert striking cardioprotective effects in a broad range of experimental models. This benefit appears to be related to their actions to alleviate oxidative stress and promote autophagy-a lysosome-dependent degradative pathway that disposes of dysfunctional organelles that are major sources of cellular injury. Nutrient deprivation sensors are suppressed in states of perceived energy surplus (ie, type 2 diabetes mellitus and chronic heart failure), but SGLT2 inhibitors activate SIRT1/PGC-1α/FGF21 signaling and promote autophagy. This effect may be related to their action to trigger the perception of a system-wide decrease in environmental nutrients, but SGLT2 inhibitors may also upregulate SIRT1, PGC-1α, and FGF21 by a direct effect on the heart. Interestingly, metformin-induced stimulation of AMP-activated protein kinase (a nutrient deprivation sensor that does not promote ketogenesis) has not been shown to reduce heart failure events in clinical trials. Therefore, promotion of ketogenic nutrient deprivation signaling by SGLT2 inhibitors may explain their cardioprotective effects, even though SGLT2 is not expressed in the heart.

Abstract
Melatonin has been shown to improve in vitro fertilization and offspring survival after bacterial infection, but its role in regulating maternal-fetal communication during early pregnancy has not been investigated. Results of this study demonstrated expression of abundant melatonin receptors in conceptus and endometrium during early pregnancy. In gilts, expression of melatonin receptor 1A (MTNR1A or MT1) and melatonin receptor 1B (MTNR1B or MT2) increased in trophectoderm (Tr) and uterine luminal epithelium (LE) with advancing days during early pregnancy in a different manner. Melatonin increased proliferation and migration of porcine trophectoderm (pTr) cell, the percent pTr cells in the G2 phase of the cell cycle, and the expression of implantation-related genes by pTr cells and endometrial luminal epithelium (pLE). Melatonin also attenuated the production of LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines and tunicamycin-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-sensing proteins. The expression of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) as a potential target of melatonin increased between Days 9 and 14 of gestation. Co-treatment with SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 and melatonin restored cell-cell interactions through PI3K and MAPK signaling. Knockdown of SIRT1 decreased the expression of implantation-related genes, as well as migration of pTr and pLE cells. The expression of microRNAs regulated by SIRT1 was suppressed in response to melatonin. Furthermore, melatonin significantly increased lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-reduced fertilization and embryogenesis in zebrafish model. These results suggest that melatonin may improve the uterine-conceptus interactions via the regulation of SIRT1 during early pregnancy.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an evolutionarily conserved adaptive response that contributes to deal with the misfolded or unfolded protein in the lumen of the ER and restore the ER homeostasis. However, excessive and prolonged ER stress can trigger the cell-death signaling pathway which causes cell death, usually in the form of apoptosis. It is generally accepted that inappropriate cellular apoptosis and a series of the subsequent inflammatory response and oxidative stress can cause disturbance of normal physiological functions and organ damage. A lot of evidence shows that the excessive activation of the ER stress contributes to the pathogenesis of many kinds of diseases and inhibiting the inappropriate stress is of great significance for maintaining the normal physiological function. In recent years, Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) has become a research hotspot on ER stress. As a master regulator of ER stress, increasing evidence suggests that SIRT1 plays a positive role in a variety of ER stress-induced organ damage via multiple mechanisms, including inhibiting cellular apoptosis and promoting autophagy. Furthermore, a lot of factors have shown effective regulation of SIRT1, which indicates the feasibility of treating SIRT1 as a target for the treatment of ER stress-related diseases. We summarize and reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying the protective effect of SIRT1 in multiple ER stress-mediated organ damage in this review. We also summed up the possible adjustment mechanism of SIRT1, which provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of ER stress-related diseases.

Abstract
Aging impairs the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), especially in interfibrillar mitochondria (IFM). Mitochondria are in close contact with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Induction of ER stress leads to ETC injury in adult heart mitochondria. We asked if ER stress contributes to the mitochondrial dysfunction during aging. Subsarcolemmal mitochondria (SSM) and IFM were isolated from 3, 18, and 24 mo. C57Bl/6 mouse hearts. ER stress progressively increased with age, especially in 24 mo. mice that manifest mitochondrial dysfunction. OXPHOS was decreased in 24 mo. IFM oxidizing complex I and complex IV substrates. Proteomic analysis showed that the content of multiple complex I subunits was decreased in IFM from 24 mo. hearts, but remained unchanged in in 18 mo. IFM without a decrease in OXPHOS. Feeding 24 mo. old mice with 4-phenylbutyrate (4-PBA) for two weeks attenuated the ER stress and improved mitochondrial function. These results indicate that ER stress contributes to the mitochondrial dysfunction in aged hearts. Attenuation of ER stress is a potential approach to improve mitochondrial function in aged hearts.

Abstract
This study addressed the hypothesis that cardiac Sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) deficiency alters cardiomyocyte Ca2+ and Na+ regulation, leading to cardiac dysfunction and arrhythmogenesis. We used mice with cardiac‐specific Sirt1 knockout (Sirt1−/−). Sirt1flox/flox mice were served as control. Sirt1−/− mice showed impaired cardiac ejection fraction with increased ventricular spontaneous activity and burst firing compared with those in control mice. The arrhythmic events were suppressed by KN93 and ranolazine. Reduction in Ca2+ transient amplitudes and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ stores, and increased SR Ca2+ leak were shown in the Sirt1−/− mice. Electrophysiological measurements were performed using patch‐clamp method. While L‐type Ca2+ current (ICa, L) was smaller in Sirt1−/− myocytes, reverse‐mode Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) current was larger compared with those in control myocytes. Late Na+ current (INa, L) was enhanced in the Sirt1−/− mice, alongside with elevated cytosolic Na+ level. Increased cytosolic and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) were shown in Sirt1−/− mice. Sirt1−/− cardiomyocytes showed down‐regulation of L‐type Ca2+ channel α1c subunit (Cav1.2) and sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2a (SERCA2a), but up‐regulation of Ca2+/calmodulin‐dependent protein kinase II and NCX. In conclusions, these findings suggest that deficiency of Sirt1 impairs the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ and Na+ in cardiomyocytes, thereby provoking cardiac dysfunction and arrhythmogenesis.

Abstract
Polyamines have been shown to delay cellular and organismal aging and to provide cardiovascular protection in humans. Because age-related cardiovascular dysfunction is often accompanied by impaired mitochondrial biogenesis and function, we explored the ability of spermidine (SPD), a major mammalian polyamine, to attenuate cardiac aging through activation of mitochondrial biogenesis. Cardiac polyamine levels were reduced in aged (24-month-old) rats. Six-week SPD supplementation restored cardiac polyamine content, preserved myocardial ultrastructure, and inhibited mitochondrial dysfunction. Immunoblotting showed that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and SPD/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT) were downregulated and upregulated, respectively, in the myocardium of older rats. These changes were paralleled by age-dependent downregulation of components of the sirtuin-1/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator alpha (SIRT1/PGC-1α) signaling pathway, an important regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis. SPD administration increased SIRT1, PGC-1α, nuclear respiratory factors 1 and 2 (NRF1, NRF2), and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) expression; decreased ROS production; and improved OXPHOS performance in senescent (H2O2-treated) cardiomyocytes. Inhibition of polyamine biosynthesis or SIRT1 activity abolished these effects. PGC-1α knockdown experiments confirmed that SPD activated mitochondrial biogenesis through SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of PGC-1α. These data provide new insight into the antiaging effects of SPD, and suggest potential applicability to protect against deterioration of cardiac function with aging.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases have become the leading cause of human death. Aging is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Cardiac aging is associated with maladaptation of cellular metabolism, dysfunction (or senescence) of cardiomyocytes, a decrease in angiogenesis, and an increase in tissue scarring (fibrosis). These events eventually lead to cardiac remodeling and failure. Senescent cardiomyocytes show the hallmarks of DNA damage, endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondria dysfunction, contractile dysfunction, hypertrophic growth, and senescence-associated secreting phenotype (SASP). Metabolism within cardiomyocytes is essential not only to fuel the pump function of the heart but also to maintain the functional homeostasis and participate in the senescence of cardiomyocytes. The senescence of cardiomyocyte is also regulated by the non-myocytes (endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells) in the local microenvironment. On the other hand, the senescent cardiomyocytes alter their phenotypes and subsequently affect the non-myocytes in the local microenvironment and contribute to cardiac aging and pathological remodeling. In this review, we first summarized the hallmarks of the senescence of cardiomyocytes. Then, we discussed the metabolic switch within senescent cardiomyocytes and provided a discussion of the cellular communications between dysfunctional cardiomyocytes and non-myocytes in the local microenvironment. We also addressed the functions of metabolic regulators within non-myocytes in modulating myocardial microenvironment. Finally, we pointed out some interesting and important questions that are needed to be addressed by further studies.

Abstract
Diabetes is constantly increasing at a rate that outpaces genetic variation and approaches to pandemic magnitude. Skin cells physiology and the cutaneous healing response are progressively undermined in diabetes which predisposes to lower limb ulceration, recidivism, and subsequent lower extremities amputation as a frightened complication. The molecular operators whereby diabetes reduces tissues resilience and hampers the repair mechanisms remain elusive. We have accrued the notion that diabetic environment embraces preconditioning factors that definitively propel premature cellular senescence, and that ulcer cells senescence impair the healing response. Hyperglycemia/oxidative stress/mitochondrial and DNA damage may act as major drivers sculpturing the senescent phenotype. We review here historical and recent evidences that substantiate the hypothesis that diabetic foot ulcers healing trajectory, is definitively impinged by a self-expanding and self-perpetuative senescent cells society that drives wound chronicity. This society may be fostered by a diabetic archetypal secretome that induces replicative senescence in dermal fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and keratinocytes. Mesenchymal stem cells are also susceptible to major diabetic senescence drivers, which accounts for the inability of these cells to appropriately assist in diabetics wound healing. Thus, the use of autologous stem cells has not translated in significant clinical outcomes. Novel and multifaceted therapeutic approaches are required to pharmacologically mitigate the diabetic cellular senescence operators and reduce the secondary multi-organs complications. The senescent cells society and its adjunctive secretome could be an ideal local target to manipulate diabetic ulcers and prevent wound chronification and acute recidivism. This futuristic goal demands harnessing the diabetic wound chronicity epigenomic signature.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the changes of ischemic myocardial cells apoptosis in rats following intervention with Xuefu Zhuyu Oral Liquid (, XFZY), as well as changes of protein expression of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) and SIRT1 pathway-related genes. METHODS H9c2 rat myocardial cells were divided into 6 groups: control group, oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) group, SIRT1 siRNA group, OGD+SIRT1 siRNA group, OGD+XFZY group, and OGD+SIRT1 siRNA+XFZY group. Quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blot were used to detect the concentration variations of SIRT1 and its pathway-related genes and corresponding protein expression after XFZY intervention and SIRT1 transfection. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the mRNA and protein expressions of SIRT1 were decreased obviously, while the mRNA and protein levels of P53, FoxO1, FoxO3, FoxO4 and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-ΚB) were increased in the OGD group, SIRT1 siRNA group, and OGD+SIRT1 siRNA group (P<0.01). Compared with the OGD group and OGD+SIRT1 siRNA group, the treatment of XFZY inhibited the decline in SIRT1 mRNA and protein expressions (P<0.01), and down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of P53, FoxO1, FoxO3, FoxO4 and NF-ΚB, respectively (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION XFZY could prevent myocardial cells apoptosis probably by increasing the mRNA and protein expressions of SIRT1 and inhibiting the mRNA and protein expressions of P53, NF- K B, FoxO1, FoxO3 and FoxO4.

Abstract
AIMS Pediatric heart failure is a common cardiovascular disease in clinical pediatrics. CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF), a novel transcriptional repressor, was reported to participate in the occurrence of various cardiovascular diseases. The present study focuses on exploring the effects of CTCF on tunicamycin (TM)-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and investigating the underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHOD Expression of CTCF in blood samples of heart failure children and TM-induced cardiomyocytes were evaluated by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Apoptotic rate of cardiomyocytes was detected by Annexin v assay. Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were applied to examine the effect of CTCF on ER stress. Co-immunoprecipitation and western blotting were devoted to explore the mechanism by which CTCF contributes to ER stress. KEY FINDINGS We proved that CTCF was lowly expressed in blood samples of heart failure children and TM-induced cardiomyocytes, and overexpression of CTCF weaken the TM-induced ER stress. Using co-immunoprecipitation and protein blots, we demonstrated that CTCF upregulates RYR2 by inhibiting S100A1, thus mediating the PERK signaling pathway and regulating ER stress. SIGNIFICANCE Our data revealed that CTCF protects cardiomyocytes from ER stress through S100A1-RYR2 axis, and can be applied as a therapeutic target for the treatment of pediatric heart failure in future.

Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients with chronic kidney disease, so there is an urgent need to identify therapeutic targets to control the progression of cardiovascular disease. Apoptosis of aortic smooth muscle cells can promote cardiovascular disease, but the role of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and sirtuin 1 in the pathophysiology of apoptosis is still unclear. Methods: Cultured human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) were stimulated with 10–6, 10–8, or 10–10 mol/L PTH for different days, apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry and sirtuin 1 and Bcl-2 protein levels in cell extracts were analyzed by western blotting. HASMCs were stimulated with PTH (10–8 mol/L) and 50 or 100 μmol/L RES for 3 d, apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry and sirtuin 1 and Bcl-2 protein levels in cell extracts were analyzed by western blotting. Results: We found that PTH decreased the expression of sirtuin 1 and Bcl-2, inducing apoptosis (p<.05). Resveratrol (RES), a sirtuin 1 agonist, inhibited PTH-induced apoptosis and restored Bcl-2 expression (p<.05). Conclusions: PTH induces apoptosis in HASMCs. Resveratrol inhibits PTH-induced apoptosis in HASMCs.

Abstract
Cardiac disease is still the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, despite some exciting and innovative improvements in clinical management. In particular, atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure show a steep increase in incidence and healthcare costs due to the ageing population. Although research revealed novel insights in pathways driving cardiac disease, the exact underlying mechanisms have not been uncovered so far. Emerging evidence indicates that derailed proteostasis (i.e., the homeostasis of protein expression, function and clearance) is a central component driving cardiac disease. Within proteostasis derailment, key roles for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondrial stress have been uncovered. Here, we describe the concept of ER and mitochondrial stress and the role of interactions between the ER and mitochondria, discuss how imbalance in the interactions fuels cardiac ageing and cardiac disease (including AF), and finally assess the potential of drugs directed at conserving the interaction as an innovative therapeutic target to improve cardiac function.

Exploring the role of orexin B-sirtuin 1-HIF-1α in diabetes-mellitus induced vascular endothelial dysfunction and associated myocardial injury in rats. Life Sci 2019; 254:117041.

Abstract
AIM The present study explored the role and possible interrelationship between orexin B-sirtuin 1-HIF-1α signaling pathways in diabetes-mellitus induced vascular dysfunction and enhancement in myocardial injury. MATERIAL AND METHODS Streptozotocin (60 mg/kg) was employed to induce diabetes mellitus in male Wistar albino rats, which were kept for eight weeks. The vascular function was noted by assessing acetylcholine-induced relaxation in norepinephrine precontracted mesenteric arteries. The hearts were subjected to ischemia-reperfusion injury on the Langendorff apparatus. Myocardial injury was assessed by noting the release of CK-MB, cardiac troponin and measuring myocardial infarction. The levels of orexin B, sirtuin 1 and HIF-1α were measured. YNT-185 (orexin B type 2 receptor agonist), STR2104 (sirtuin 1 agonist) and EX527 (sirtuin 1 antagonist) were employed as pharmacological tools. RESULTS Diabetes led to significant development of vascular dysfunction and enhanced ischemia-reperfusion injury in isolated hearts. There was a significant decrease in the levels of orexin B, sirtuin 1 and HIF-1α in diabetic animals. Treatment with YNT-185 and/or STR2104 significantly attenuated the diabetes-induced increase in myocardial injury and vascular dysfunction. Co-administration of EX527 abolished the effects of YNT-185 suggesting orexin B-mediated effects may be through activation of sirtuin 1. Moreover, YNT-185-induced increase in the expression of sirtuin 1 and HIF-1α was also abolished in the presence of EX527. CONCLUSION Diabetes-induced significant decline in orexin B levels in the plasma along with a decrease in the expression of sirtuin 1 and HIF-1α in the heart following ischemia-reperfusion injury may possibly contribute in exacerbating the myocardial injury and vascular dysfunction.

Abstract
Heart failure is associated with profound alterations of energy metabolism thought to play a major role in the progression of this syndrome. SIRT1 is a metabolic sensor of cellular energy and exerts essential functions on energy metabolism, oxidative stress response, apoptosis, or aging. Importantly, SIRT1 deacetylates the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma co-activator 1α (PGC-1α), the master regulator of energy metabolism involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and fatty acid utilization. However, the exact role of SIRT1 in controlling cardiac energy metabolism is still incompletely understood and conflicting results have been obtained. We generated a cardio-specific inducible model of Sirt1 gene deletion in mice (Sirt1ciKO) to decipher the role of SIRT1 in control conditions and following cardiac stress induced by pressure overload. SIRT1 deficiency induced a progressive cardiac dysfunction, without overt alteration in mitochondrial content or properties. Sixteen weeks after Sirt1 deletion an increase in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and a higher rate of oxidative damage were observed, suggesting disruption of the ROS production/detoxification balance. Following pressure overload, cardiac dysfunction and alteration in mitochondrial properties were exacerbated in Sirt1ciKO mice. Overall the results demonstrate that SIRT1 plays a cardioprotective role on cardiac energy metabolism and thereby on cardiac function.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Advancing age is a major risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease because of the lifelong exposure to cardiovascular risk factors and specific alterations affecting the heart and the vasculature during ageing. Indeed, the ageing heart is characterized by structural and functional changes that are caused by alterations in fundamental cardiomyocyte functions. In particular, the myocardium is heavily dependent on mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and is especially susceptible to mitochondrial dysfunction. Indeed, primary alterations in mitochondrial function, which are subsequently amplified by defective quality control mechanisms, are considered to be major contributing factors to cardiac senescence. In this Review, we discuss the mechanisms linking defective mitochondrial quality control mechanisms (that is, proteostasis, biogenesis, dynamics, and autophagy) to organelle dysfunction in the context of cardiac ageing. We also illustrate relevant molecular pathways that might be exploited for the prevention and treatment of age-related heart dysfunction.

Abstract
Dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)α/γ agonists that were developed to target hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes patients, caused cardiac dysfunction or other adverse effects. We studied the mechanisms that underlie the cardiotoxic effects of a dual PPARα/γ agonist, tesaglitazar, in wild type and diabetic (leptin receptor deficient - db/db) mice. Mice treated with tesaglitazar-containing chow or high fat diet developed cardiac dysfunction despite lower plasma triglycerides and glucose levels. Expression of cardiac peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC1α), which promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, had the most profound reduction among various fatty acid metabolism genes. Furthermore, we observed increased acetylation of PGC1α, which suggests PGC1α inhibition and lowered sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) expression. This change was associated with lower mitochondrial abundance. Combined pharmacological activation of PPARα and PPARγ in C57BL/6 mice reproduced the reduction of PGC1α expression and mitochondrial abundance. Resveratrol-mediated SIRT1 activation attenuated tesaglitazar-induced cardiac dysfunction and corrected myocardial mitochondrial respiration in C57BL/6 and diabetic mice but not in cardiomyocyte-specific Sirt1-/- mice. Our data shows that drugs, which activate both PPARα and PPARγ lead to cardiac dysfunction associated with PGC1α suppression and lower mitochondrial abundance likely due to competition between these two transcription factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress and inflammation are major drivers of myocardial hypertrophy in chronic kidney disease (CKD). The silent information regulator gene 1 (Sirt1) is a fundamental mediator of the response to oxidative stress and inflammation and promotes myocardial growth under stress conditions; therefore, it may contribute to myocardial hypertrophy and concentric remodeling of the left ventricle (LV) in CKD. METHODS We investigated the cross-sectional and longitudinal relationship between three candidate polymorphisms in the Sirt1 gene and LV parameters in two cohorts of CKD patients including 235 stage G5D patients and 179 stages G1-5 patients, respectively. RESULTS In both cohorts, the C allele of the Sirt1 rs7069102 polymorphism associated with the posterior wall thickness in separate and combined analyses (beta = 0.15, P = 2 × 10) but was unrelated with the LV volume and the LV mass index indicating a peculiar association of this allele with LV concentric remodeling. Accordingly, the same allele was linked with the LV mass-to-volume ratio in separate and combined (beta = 0.14, P = 2 × 10) analyses in the same cohorts. Furthermore, in longitudinal analyses patients harboring the C allele showed a more pronounced increase in LV mass-to-volume ratio over time than patients without such an allele (regression coefficient = 0.14, 95% confidence interval: 0.05-0.23; P = 3 × 10 in the combined analysis). CONCLUSION The rs7069102 polymorphism in the Sirt1 gene is associated with LV concentric remodeling in two independent cohorts of stages G5D and G1-5 CKD patients. These results offer a genetic basis to the hypothesis that the Sirt1 gene plays a causal role in myocardial hypertrophy and LV concentric remodeling in these patients.
