Abstract
The morbidity and mortality of cancer are rising rapidly worldwide and immunotherapy has become an effective means to curb the progress of cancer. Sirtuin-1(SIRT1) is a NAD+ -dependent deacetylase that plays a key role in cancer development and immune regulation through mediating a variety of signaling pathways. Targeting SIRT1 in immunotherapy could enhance or erod immune responses against cancer cells, while SIRT1 activator and inhibitors are being developed as potential antineoplastic agents with important implications in clinic. This review summarizes the impact of SIRT1 in different types of immune cells and mechanism of SIRT1-mediated immune responses in tumor progression as well as its therapeutic perspectives.

Abstract
Silent information regulator type-1 (SIRT1), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide+-dependent deacetylase, is a member of the sirtuins family and has unique protein deacetylase activity. SIRT1 participates in physiological as well as pathophysiological processes by targeting a wide range of protein substrates and signalings. In this review, we described the latest progress of SIRT1 in pulmonary diseases. We have introduced the basic information and summarized the prominent role of SIRT1 in several lung diseases, such as acute lung injury, acute respiratory distress syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer, and aging-related diseases.

Abstract
Due to its role in apoptosis, differentiation, cell cycle arrest, and DNA damage repair in stress responses (oxidative stress, hypoxia, chemotherapeutic drugs, and UV irradiation or radiotherapy), FOXO3a is considered a key tumor suppressor that determines radiotherapeutic and chemotherapeutic responses in cancer cells. Mutations in the FOXO3a gene are rare, even in cancer cells. Post-translational regulations are the main mechanisms for inactivating FOXO3a. The subcellular localization, stability, transcriptional activity, and DNA binding affinity for FOXO3a can be modulated via various post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, acetylation, and interactions with other transcriptional factors or regulators. This review summarizes how proteins that interact with FOXO3a engage in cancer progression.

Delivery of SIRT1 by cancer-associated adipocyte-derived extracellular vesicles regulates immune response and tumorigenesis of ovarian cancer cells. Clin Transl Oncol 2024; 26:190-203. [PMID: 37311988 DOI: 10.1007/s12094-023-03240-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study intends to investigate the possible molecular mechanism of immune response and tumorigenesis in ovarian cancer cells, mediated by sirtuin 1 (SIRT1)-containing extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from cancer-associated adipocytes (CAAs) (CAA-EVs). METHODS Differentially expressed genes in EVs from CAAs were screened by RNA transcriptome sequencing, and the downstream pathway was predicted in silico. The binding between SIRT1 and CD24 was investigated by luciferase activity and ChIP-PCR assays. EVs were extracted from human ovarian cancer tissue-isolated CAAs, and the internalization of CCA-EVs by ovarian cancer cells was characterized. The ovarian cancer cell line was injected into mice to establish an animal model. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze the proportions of M1 and M2 macrophages, CD8+ T, T-reg, and CD4+ T cells. TUNEL staining was used to detect cell apoptosis in the mouse tumor tissues. ELISA detection was performed on immune-related factors in the serum of mice. RESULTS CAA-EVs could deliver SIRT1 to ovarian cancer cells, thereby affecting the immune response of ovarian cancer cells in vitro and promoting tumorigenesis in vivo. SIRT1 could transcriptionally activate the expression of CD24, and CD24 could up-regulate Siglec-10 expression. CAA-EVs-SIRT1 activated the CD24/Siglec-10 axis and promoted CD8+ T cell apoptosis, thereby promoting tumorigenesis in mice. CONCLUSION CAA-EVs-mediated transfer of SIRT1 regulates the CD24/Siglec-10 axis to curb immune response and promote tumorigenesis of ovarian cancer cells.

Abstract
High levels of the estrogen receptor β (ERβ) predict poor prognosis following platinum-containing adjuvant chemotherapies in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the precise role of ERβ remains elusive. In this study, we demonstrated that targeting ERβ could significantly increase the cytotoxicity of cisplatin both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, cisplatin directly binds to ERβ, which facilitates its homodimerization and nuclear translocation. ERβ activation transcriptionally represses the expression of DCAF8, an adaptor of CRL4 E3 ubiquitin ligase, which in turn attenuates the proteasomal degradation of ERβ, leading to ERβ accumulation; this positive feedback loop results in Akt activation and eventually cisplatin resistance in NSCLC through PTEN inhibition. Moreover, low expression of DCAF8 and high expression of ERβ are associated with treatment resistance in patients receiving cisplatin-containing adjuvant chemotherapy. The present results provide insights into the underlying mechanism of ERβ-induced cisplatin resistance and offer an alternative therapeutic strategy to improve the efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
Currently, immunotherapy based on PD-1/PD-L1 pathway blockade has improved survival of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, differential responses have been observed by sex, where men appear to respond better than women. Additionally, adverse effects of immunotherapy are mainly observed in women. Studies in some types of hormone-dependent cancer have revealed a role of sex hormones in anti-tumor response, tumor microenvironment and immune evasion. Estrogens mainly promote immune tolerance regulating T-cell function and modifying tumor microenvironment, while androgens attenuate anti-tumor immune responses. The precise mechanism by which sex and sex hormones may modulate immune response to tumor, modify PD-L1 expression in cancer cells and promote immune escape in NSCLC is still unclear, but current data show how sexual differences affect immune therapy response and prognosis. This review provides update information regarding anti-PD-1/PD-L immunotherapeutic efficacy in NSCLC by sex, analyzing potential roles for sex hormones on PD-L1 expression, and discussing a plausible of sex and sex hormones as predictive response factors to immunotherapy.

Abstract
Aging entails the inevitable loss of the structural and functional integrity of cells and tissues during the lifetime. It is a highly hormone-dependent process; although, the exact mechanism of hormone involvement, including sex hormones, is unclear. The marked suppression of estradiol synthesis during menopause suggests that the hormone may be crucial in maintaining cell lifespan and viability in women. Recent studies also indicate that the same may be true for men. Similar anti-aging features are attributed to sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), which may possibly be linked at the molecular level with estradiol. This finding may be valuable for understanding the aging process, its regulation, and possible prevention against unhealthy aging. The following article summarizes the initial studies published in this field with a focus on age-associated diseases, like cancer, cardiovascular disease and atherogenic metabolic shift, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and muscle damage, as well as neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the world's most common and deadly cancers. The two main types of lung cancer are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and small cell lung cancer (SCLC). More than 85% of lung cancers are NSCLC. Genetic factors play a significant role in the risk of NSCLC. Growing studies focus on studying risk factors at the molecular level. The aim of the study is to build a pipeline to integrate Genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) and transcriptomics data with machine learning to effectively identify genetic risk factors of NSCLC. GWAS datasets and GWAS summary data were downloaded from GWAS catalog, which include lung carcinoma genetic variants among the European population. Then, with the GWAS summary, data functional analysis of significant SNPs was performed using a webserver called FUMAGWAS. The transcriptomics data of NSCLC and non-NSCLC people were used to build a machine learning model to identify the key genes that help predict the NSCLC. The top up-regulation and down-regulation genes were identified by the BART cancer webserver, and the mechanistic roles of the genes were validated by literature review. By performing integrative analysis of GWAS and transcriptomics analysis using machine learning, we identified multiple SNPs and genes that related to NSCLC. The computational pipeline may facilitate the biomarker discovery for NSCLC and other diseases.

Abstract
The prevalence of lung cancer in women currently merits our attentions. However, cigarette exposure alone does not tell the whole story that lung cancer is more prevalent among non-smoking women. Since female lung cancer is closely linked to estrogen levels, many of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs), as the substances similar to estrogen, affect hormone levels and become a potential risk of female lung cancer. Additionally, the combined toxicity of EDCs in daily environment has only been discussed on a limited scale. Consequently, this study explored the cancer-promoting effect of two representative substances of EDCs namely Bisphenol A (BPA) and Di(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) after their exposure alone or in combination, using a rat pulmonary tumor model published previously, combining bioinformatics analysis based on The Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD) and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) databases. It demonstrated that BPA and DEHP enhanced the promotion of pulmonary tumor in female rats, either alone or in combination. Mechanistically, BPA and DEHP mainly directly bound and activated ESR2 protein, phosphorylated CREB protein, activated HDAC6 transcriptionally, induced the production of the proto-oncogene c-MYC, and accelerated the formation of pulmonary tumor in female rats. Remarkably, BPA, rather than DEHP, exhibited a much more critical effect in female lung cancer. Additionally, the transcription factor ESR2 was most affected in carcinogenesis, causing genetic disruption. Furthermore, the TCGA database revealed that ESR2 could enhance the promotion and progression of non-small cell lung cancer in females via activating the WNT/β-catenin pathway. Finally, our findings demonstrated that BPA and DEHP could enhance the promotion of pulmonary carcinoma via ESR2 in female rats and provide a potential and valuable insight into the causes and prevention of lung cancer in non-smoking women due to EDCs exposure.
