Abstract
As an element with metalloid properties, arsenic is pervasively present in the environment and is recognized as a potent carcinogen. Consequently, the issue of human arsenic exposure has become a significant concern within the global public health sector. Numerous studies have indicated that arsenic induces cellular senescence through various mechanisms, including triggering epigenetic alterations, inducing the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), promoting telomere shortening, and causing mitochondrial dysfunction. This article collates and summarizes the latest research advancements on the involvement of cellular senescence in arsenic toxicity and explores the mechanisms of arsenic-induced toxicity. This study aims to provide new perspectives and directions for future research on arsenic toxicity and the development of prevention and treatment strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoporosis poses a substantial public health challenge due to an ageing population and the lack of adequate treatment options. The condition is marked by a reduction in bone mineral density, resulting in an elevated risk of fractures. The reduction in bone density and strength, as well as musculoskeletal issues that come with aging, present a significant challenge for individuals impacted by these conditions, as well as the healthcare system worldwide. METHODS Literature survey was conducted until May 2023 using databases such as Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. RESULT Sirtuins 1-7 (SIRT1-SIRT7), which are a group of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases, possess remarkable capabilities to increase lifespan and combat diseases related to aging. Research has demonstrated that these proteins play an important role in regular skeletal development and maintenance by directly impacting bone cells. Their dysfunction could be a factor in various bone conditions. Studies conducted on animals before clinical trials have shown that administering Sirtuins agonists to mice provides a safeguard against osteoporosis resulting from aging, menopause, and immobilization. These findings imply that Sirtuins may be a viable target for addressing the irregularity in bone remodeling and treating osteoporosis and other skeletal ailments. CONCLUSION The purpose of this review was to present a thorough and current evaluation of the existing knowledge on Sirtuins biology, with a particular emphasis on their involvement in maintaining bone homeostasis and contributing to osteoporosis. Additionally, the review examines potential pharmacological interventions targeting Sirtuins for the treatment of osteoporosis.

[PMID: 38673851 PMCID: PMC11050352 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25084265] [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: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Neutrophil elastase (NE) is taken up by macrophages, retains intracellular protease activity, and induces a pro-inflammatory phenotype. However, the mechanism of NE-induced pro-inflammatory polarization of macrophages is not well understood. We hypothesized that intracellular NE degrades histone deacetylases (HDAC) and Sirtuins, disrupting the balance of lysine acetylation and deacetylation and resulting in nuclear to cytoplasmic translocation of a major alarmin, High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1), a pro-inflammatory response in macrophages. Human blood monocytes were obtained from healthy donors or from subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Monocytes were differentiated into blood monocyte derived macrophages (BMDMs) in vitro. Human BMDMs were exposed to NE or control vehicle, and the abundance of HDACs and Sirtuins was determined by Western blotting of total cell lysates or nuclear extracts or determined by ELISA. HDAC, Sirtuin, and Histone acetyltransferase (HAT) activities were measured. NE degraded most HDACs and Sirtuin (Sirt)1, resulting in decreased HDAC and sirtuin activities, with minimal change in HAT activity. We then evaluated whether the NE-induced loss of Sirt activity or loss of HDAC activities would alter the cellular localization of HMGB1. NE treatment or treatment with Trichostatin A (TSA), a global HDAC inhibitor, both increased HMGB1 translocation from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, consistent with HMGB1 activation. NE significantly degraded Class I and II HDAC family members and Sirt 1, which shifted BMDMs to a pro-inflammatory phenotype.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease characterised by articular cartilage destruction, and its complex aetiology contributes to suboptimal clinical treatment outcomes. A close association exists between glucose metabolism dysregulation and OA pathogenesis. Owing to the unique environment of low oxygen and glucose concentrations, chondrocytes rely heavily on their glycolytic capacity, exhibiting distinct spatiotemporal differences. However, under pathological stimulation, chondrocytes undergo excessive glycolytic activity while mitochondrial respiration and other branches of glucose metabolism are compromised. This metabolic change induces cartilage degeneration by reprogramming the inflammatory responses. Sirtuins, a highly conserved family of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases, regulate glucose metabolism in response to energy fluctuations in different cellular compartments,alleviating metabolic stress. SIRT1, the most extensively studied sirtuin, participates in maintaining glucose homeostasis in almost all key metabolic tissues. While actively contributing to the OA progression and displaying diverse biological effects in cartilage protection, SIRT1's role in regulating glucose metabolism in chondrocytes has not received sufficient attention. This review focuses on discussing the beneficial role of SIRT1 in OA progression from a metabolic regulation perspective based on elucidating the primary characteristics of chondrocyte glucose metabolism. We also summarise the potential mechanisms and therapeutic strategies targeting SIRT1 in chondrocytes to guide clinical practice and explore novel therapeutic directions.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation (IR) triggers an overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), disrupting the normal function of both immune and metabolic systems, leading to inflammation and metabolic disturbances. To address the pressing requirement for protection against IR, fucoxanthin (FX), a naturally occurring compound extracted from algae, was utilized as an efficient radioprotective agent in macrophages. In this study, we cultured murine RAW 264.7 macrophages and treated them with FX, along with agents influencing the activity of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and estrogen receptor α (ERα), to investigate their impact on IR-induced cellular responses. FX significantly attenuated IR-induced upregulation of pro-inflammatory genes (Il1b, Tnf, and Ccl2) and inhibited macrophage polarization toward the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype. Additionally, FX regulated IR-induced metabolic genes mediating glycolysis and mitochondrial biogenesis. The ability of FX to mitigate IR-induced inflammation and glycolysis was ascribed to the expression and activity of SIRT1 and ERα in macrophages. This study not only uncovers the underlying mechanisms of FX's radioprotective properties but also highlights its potential as a protective agent against the detrimental effects of IR, thus offering new opportunities for enhancing radiation protection in the future.

J Orthop 2023; 46:70-77. [PMID: 37942217 PMCID: PMC10630756 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2023.10.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The MAKO Robotic-Arm system is a cutting-edge technology which combines both computed tomography (CT) scanning and three-dimensional planning to determine the ideal size and orientation of implants prior to bone resection. It is typically utilized within a general orthopedic setting for joint replacement procedures, such as total joint arthroplasties. However, its use within orthopedic oncology, which contains a much more compromised patient population and more complex surgical treatment, is not well documented within the literature. Question/purposes To determine the patient outcomes of those who underwent a total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA) at Morristown Medical Center using the MAKO Robotic-Arm System. Particularly, we aspired to delve into the use of the MAKO in an orthopedic oncology setting for patients with a degenerative hip or knee and a history of cancer or other orthopedic tumor, impending pathological fracture, PVNS, chondromatosis, radiation therapy, or other oncological related conditions. Patients and methods Our institution monitored twenty-five individuals with unique orthopedic oncology conditions that underwent MAKO robotic-assisted total hip and knee arthroplasty. This was performed between 2020 and 2022 at Morristown Medical Center in New Jersey. During this time period, 52% (13/25) of the operations were performed on knees and 48% (12/25) were performed on hips. Data regarding patient demographics, body mass index (BMI), medications, hemoglobin, hematocrit, comorbidities, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Class, operative data, the length of stay (LOS), readmission rates due to infection or periprosthetic fractures, and complications were collected retrospectively. All confidence intervals were calculated at the 95% confidence level. Results Postoperatively, the average LOS was 3.2 days, and there were no complications after any of the MAKO-assisted joint arthroplasty procedures. Additionally, there were no readmissions at any of our recorded intervals - 1-30, 1-60, 1-90, and 1 year - however one patient presented to the emergency department after falling 4 days post-operatively. X-ray imaging ultimately revealed no periprosthetic fracture or malalignment of the prosthesis. Conclusions The utilization of the MAKO Robotic-Arm System for joint arthroplasty procedures (THAs and TKAs) on orthopedic oncology patients yielded exceptional outcomes, with no complications or readmissions directly attributed to the use of this innovative robotic technology. Thus, this newly emerging surgical system holds great promise, potentially revolutionizing the approach for selected orthopedic oncology patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty compared to the traditional manual techniques. It further demonstrates that its use in an orthopedic oncology setting - where the cohort of patients are often compromised, leading to more intricate surgeries with heightened risks - elicits safety and provides optimal outcomes for patients. Nevertheless, its role within the field is evolving, and in the coming years, as it gains further popularity and sees broader application by orthopedic oncology surgeons, its potential will become clearer. To solidify its position, future clinical investigations and prospective research should be conducted to support the preference of the MAKO system over traditional manual techniques. This will help provide the necessary evidence to advocate for its widespread adoption and continued advancements in orthopedic oncology procedures.

Abstract
Although the height of the proliferating layer that was suppressed in the growth plate has been recognized as an adverse effect of cisplatin in pediatric cancer survivors, the detailed pathological mechanism has not been elucidated. Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) has been reported as an essential modulator of cartilage homeostasis, but its role in cisplatin-induced damage of chondrocytes remains unclear. In this study, we examined how cisplatin affected the expression of SIRT1 and cell viability. Next, we showed downregulation of SIRT1 after cisplatin treatment resulted in suppression of Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator (PGC-1α), leading to inhibition of Nrf2 nuclear translocation and subsequently decreased Heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) and NAD(P)H Quinone Dehydrogenase 1(NQO-1) expression. Blockage of the SIRT1/ PGC-1α axis not only increased oxidative stress with lower antioxidant SOD and GSH, but also contributed to mitochondrial dysfunction evidenced by the collapse of membrane potential and repression of mitochondrial DNA copy number and ATP. We also found that Cisplatin up-regulated the p38 phosphorylation, pro-inflammatory events and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in chondrocytes through the SIRT1-modulated antioxidant manner. Collectively, our findings suggest that preservation of SIRT1 in chondrocytes may be a potential target to ameliorate growth plate dysfunction for cisplatin-receiving pediatric cancer survivors.

Abstract
Background and purpose MAPKs are among the most relevant signalling pathways involved in coordinating cell responses to different stimuli. This group includes p38MAPKs, constituted by 4 different proteins with a high sequence homology: MAPK14 (p38α), MAPK11 (p38β), MAPK12 (p38γ) and MAPK13 (p38δ). Despite their high similarity, each member shows unique expression patterns and even exclusive functions. Thus, analysing protein-specific functions of MAPK members is necessary to unequivocally uncover the roles of this signalling pathway. Here, we investigate the possible role of MAPK11 in the cell response to ionizing radiation (IR). Materials and methods We developed MAPK11/14 knockdown through shRNA and CRISPR interference gene perturbation approaches and analysed the downstream effects on cell responses to ionizing radiation in A549, HCT-116 and MCF-7 cancer cell lines. Specifically, we assessed IR toxicity by clonogenic assays; DNA damage response activity by immunocytochemistry; apoptosis and cell cycle by flow cytometry (Annexin V and propidium iodide, respectively); DNA repair by comet assay; and senescence induction by both X-Gal staining and gene expression of senescence-associated genes by RT-qPCR. Results Our findings demonstrate a critical role of MAPK11 in the cellular response to IR by controlling the associated senescent phenotype, and without observable effects on DNA damage response, apoptosis, cell cycle or DNA damage repair. Conclusion Our results highlight MAPK11 as a novel mediator of the cellular response to ionizing radiation through the control exerted onto IR-associated senescence.

Abstract
Tributyltin (TBT) is known as an endocrine-disrupting chemical. This study investigated the effects and possible mechanisms of TBT exposure on inducing human articular chondrocyte senescence in vitro at the human-relevant concentrations of 0.01-0.5 μM and mouse articular cartilage aging in vivo at the doses of 5 and 25 μg/kg/day, which were 5 times lower than the established no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) and equal to NOAEL, respectively. TBT significantly increased the senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity and the protein expression levels of senescence markers p16, p53, and p21 in chondrocytes. TBT induced the protein phosphorylation of both p38 and JNK mitogen-activated protein kinases in which the JNK signaling was a main pathway to be involved in TBT-induced chondrocyte senescence. The phosphorylation of both ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and histone protein H2AX (termed γH2AX) was also significantly increased in TBT-treated chondrocytes. ATM inhibitor significantly inhibited the protein expression levels of γH2AX, phosphorylated p38, phosphorylated JNK, p16, p53, and p21. TBT significantly stimulated the mRNA expression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP)-related factors, including IL-1β, TGF-β, TNF-α, ICAM-1, CCL2, and MMP13, and the protein expression of GATA4 and phosphorylated NF-κB-p65 in chondrocytes. Furthermore, TBT by oral gavage for 4 weeks in mice significantly enhanced the articular cartilage aging and abrasion. The protein expression of phosphorylated p38, phosphorylated JNK, GATA4, and phosphorylated NF-κB-p65, and the mRNA expression of SASP-related factors were enhanced in the mouse cartilages. These results suggest that TBT exposure can trigger human chondrocyte senescence in vitro and accelerating mouse articular cartilage aging in vivo.

P38 MAPK and Radiotherapy: Foes or Friends? Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15030861. [PMID: 36765819 PMCID: PMC9913882 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15030861] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Over the last 30 years, the study of the cellular response to ionizing radiation (IR) has increased exponentially. Among the various signaling pathways affected by IR, p38 MAPK has been shown to be activated both in vitro and in vivo, with involvement in key processes triggered by IR-mediated genotoxic insult, such as the cell cycle, apoptosis or senescence. However, we do not yet have a definitive clue about the role of p38 MAPK in terms of radioresistance/sensitivity and its potential use to improve current radiotherapy. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on this family of MAPKs in response to IR as well as in different aspects related to radiotherapy, such as their role in the control of REDOX, fibrosis, and in the radiosensitizing effect of several compounds.

Abstract
The increased use of proton therapy has led to the need of better understanding the cellular mechanisms involved. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects induced by the accelerated proton beam in hepatocarcinoma cells. An existing facility in IFIN-HH, a 3 MV Tandetron™ accelerator, was used to irradiate HepG2 human hepatocarcinoma cells with doses between 0 and 3 Gy. Colony formation was used to assess the influence of radiation on cell long-term replication. Also, the changes induced at the mitochondrial level were shown by increased ROS and ATP levels as well as a decrease in the mitochondrial membrane potential. An increased dose has induced DNA damages and G2/M cell cycle arrest which leads to caspase 3/7 mediated apoptosis and senescence induction. Finally, the morphological and ultrastructural changes were observed at the membrane level and the nucleus of the irradiated cells. Thus, proton irradiation induces both morphological and functional changes in HepG2 cells.

Abstract
Trauma to the knee joint is associated with significant cartilage degeneration and erosion of subchondral bone, which eventually leads to osteoarthritis (OA), resulting in substantial morbidity and healthcare burden. With no disease-modifying drugs in clinics, the current standard of care focuses on symptomatic relief and viscosupplementation. Modulation of autophagy and targeting senescence pathways are emerging as potential treatment strategies. Rapamycin has shown promise in OA disease amelioration by autophagy upregulation, yet its clinical use is hindered by difficulties in achieving therapeutic concentrations, necessitating multiple weekly injections. Rapamycin-loaded in poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microparticles (RMPs) induced autophagy, prevented senescence, and sustained sulphated glycosaminoglycans production in primary human articular chondrocytes from OA patients. RMPs were potent, nontoxic, and exhibited high retention time (up to 35 days) in mice joints. Intra-articular delivery of RMPs effectively mitigated cartilage damage and inflammation in surgery-induced OA when administered as a prophylactic or therapeutic regimen. Together, the study demonstrates the feasibility of using RMPs as a potential clinically translatable therapy to prevent the progression of post-traumatic OA.

Abstract
Previous research has identified an association between external radiation and disc degeneration, but the mechanism was poorly understood. This study explores the effects of ionizing radiation (IR) on inducing cellular senescence of annulus fibrosus (AF) in cell culture and in an in vivo mouse model. Exposure of AF cell culture to 10–15 Gy IR for 5 min followed by 5 days of culture incubation resulted in almost complete senescence induction as evidenced by SA-βgal positive staining of cells and elevated mRNA expression of the p16 and p21 senescent markers. IR-induced senescent AF cells exhibited increased matrix catabolism, including elevated matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and -3 protein expression and aggrecanolysis. Analogous results were seen with whole body IR-exposed mice, demonstrating that genotoxic stress also drives disc cellular senescence and matrix catabolism in vivo. These results have important clinical implications in the potential adverse effects of ionizing radiation on spinal health.

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

Abstract
During the last three decades, recombinant DNA technology has produced a wide range of hematopoietic and neurotrophic growth factors, including erythropoietin (EPO), which has emerged as a promising protein drug in the treatment of several diseases. Cumulative studies have recently indicated the neuroprotective role of EPO in preclinical models of acute and chronic neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative illnesses in the elderly, characterized by the accumulation of extracellular amyloid-ß (Aß) plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), which serve as the disease's two hallmarks. Unfortunately, AD lacks a successful treatment strategy due to its multifaceted and complex pathology. Various clinical studies, both in vitro and in vivo, have been conducted to identify the various mechanisms by which erythropoietin exerts its neuroprotective effects. The results of clinical trials in patients with AD are also promising. Herein, it is summarized and reviews all such studies demonstrating erythropoietin's potential therapeutic benefits as a pleiotropic neuroprotective agent in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), an NAD+ -dependent histone/protein deacetylase, has multifaceted functions in various biological events such as inflammation, aging, and energy metabolism. The role of SIRT1 in carcinogenesis, however, is still under debate. Recent studies have indicated that aberrant overexpression of SIRT1 is correlated with metastasis and poor prognosis in several types of malignancy, including colorectal cancer. In the present study, we found that both SIRT1 and SIRT1 phosphorylated on serine 27 were coordinately upregulated in colon cancer patients' tissues and human colon cancer cell lines. This prompted us to investigate a role of phospho-SIRT1 in the context of colon cancer progression. A phosphorylation-defective mutant form of SIRT1, in which serine 27 was substituted by alanine (SIRT1-S27A), exhibited lower protein stability compared to that of wild-type SIRT1. Notably, human colon cancer (HCT-116) cells harboring the SIRT1-S27A mutation showed decreased cell proliferation and reduced capability to form xenograft tumor in athymic nude mice, which was accompanied by diminished transcriptional activity of Snail. HCT-116 cells carrying SIRT1-S27A were less capable of deacetylating the Snail protein, with a concomitant decrease in the levels of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 mRNA transcripts. Taken together, these observations suggest that SIRT1 stabilized through phosphorylation on serine 27 exerts oncogenic effects at least partly through deacetylation-dependent activation of Snail and subsequent transcription of IL-6 and IL-8 in human colon cancer cells.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), the most common arthritis worldwide, is a degenerative joint disease characterized by progressive cartilage breakdown, subchondral remodeling, and synovial inflammation. Although conventional pharmaceutical therapies aimed to prevent further cartilage loss and joint dysfunction, there are no ideal strategies that target the pathogenesis of OA. Melatonin exhibits a variety of regulatory properties by binding to specific receptors and downstream molecules and exerts a myriad of receptor-independent actions via intracellular targets as a chondrocyte protector, an anti-inflammation modulator, and a free radical scavenger. Melatonin also modulates cartilage regeneration and degradation by directly/indirectly regulating the expression of main circadian clock genes, such as transcriptional activators [brain and muscle aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator-like protein (Bmal) and circadian locomotor output cycles kaput (Clock)], transcriptional repressors [period circadian regulator (Per)1/2, cryptochrome (Cry)1/2, and Dec2], and nuclear hormone receptors [Rev-Erbs and retinoid acid-related orphan receptors (Rors)]. Owing to its effects on cartilage homeostasis, we propose a potential role for melatonin in the prevention and therapy of OA via the modulation of circadian clock genes, mitigation of chondrocyte apoptosis, anti-inflammatory activity, and scavenging of free radicals.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is an important method for the treatment of malignant tumors. It can directly or indirectly lead to the formation of free radicals and DNA damage, resulting in a series of biological effects, including tumor cell death and normal tissue damage. These radiation effects are typically accompanied by the abnormal expression of sirtuin 1 (Sirt1), which deacetylates histones and non-histones. These Sirt1 substrates, including transcription factors and some catalytic enzymes, play a crucial role in anti-oxidative stress, DNA damage repair, autophagy regulation, anti-senescence, and apoptosis, which are closely related to triggering cell defense and survival in radiation-induced damage. In this article, we review the mechanisms underlying cellular responses to ionizing radiation and the role of Sirt1 in the process, with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for protection against radiation by Sirt1 as well as novel targets for developing radioprotective agents.

Du K, Fang X, Li Z. Ferulic acid suppresses interleukin-1β-induced degeneration of chondrocytes isolated from patients with osteoarthritis through the SIRT1/AMPK/PGC-1α signaling pathway. IMMUNITY INFLAMMATION AND DISEASE 2021; 9:710-720. [PMID: 34078001 PMCID: PMC8342228 DOI: 10.1002/iid3.424] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2021] [Revised: 03/08/2021] [Accepted: 03/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Background Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) is involved in osteoarthritis pathogenesis and mediates a series of toxic processes including the production of matrix metalloproteinase and inflammatory regulators which are suppressed by activation of silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1). We aimed to determine the effects of ferulic acid (FA) on IL‐1β‐induced osteoarthritis chondrocyte degeneration. Methods We examined the effects of FA on osteoarthritis chondrocyte viability and SIRT1 activation. The impact of FA on IL‐1β‐induced osteoarthritis chondrocyte toxicity was determined by prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), nitrite, IL‐6, components of the extracellular matrix, and markers of oxidative stress. Finally, we determined whether these effects were mediated through SIRT1 by inhibiting SIRT1 activity using SIRT1 inhibitor Sirtinol. Results We found that FA activated SIRT1/AMPK/PGC‐1α signaling pathway and attenuated IL‐1β‐induced osteoarthritis chondrocyte degeneration by suppressing the production of IL‐6, PGE2, nitrite, Collagen I, Runx‐2, MMP‐1, MMP‐3, and MMP‐13, enhancing Collagen II and Aggrecan expression and inhibiting oxidative stress. Inhibition of SIRT1 by Sirtinol attenuated the protective effects of FA. Conclusion Our findings reveal that FA prevents IL‐1β‐induced osteoarthritis chondrocyte toxicity, which suggests that FA may be a potential therapy for osteoarthritis and warrants further investigation for its clinical application.

Alveolar epithelial inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4 deficiency associated with senescence-regulated apoptosis by air pollution. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2021; 278:116863. [PMID: 33735794 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2021.116863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Revised: 02/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4 (ITIH4) is a type II acute-phase protein; however, the role of pulmonary ITIH4 after exposure to air pollution remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of ITIH4 in the lungs in response to air pollution. ITIH4 expression in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) of 47 healthy human subjects and of Sprague-Dawley rats whole-body exposed to air pollution was determined, and the underlying antiapoptotic and matrix-stabilizing pathways in alveolar epithelial A549 cells induced by diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) as well as ITIH4-knockdown were investigated. We found that an interquartile range (IQR) increase in PM2.5 was associated with a decrease of 2.673 ng/mL in ITIH4, an increase of 1.104 pg/mL of 8-isoprostane, and an increase of 6.918 pg/mL of interleukin (IL)-6 in human BAL. In rats, increases in 8-isoprostane, IL-6, and p53 and a decrease in sirtuin-1 (Sirt1) in the lungs and decreases in ITIH4 in the BAL, lungs, and serum were observed after PM2.5 and gaseous exposure. ITIH4 levels in lung lysates were correlated with levels in BAL samples (r = 0.377, p < 0.01), whereas ITIH4 levels in BAL were correlated with IL-6 levels (r = -0.420, p < 0.01). ITIH4 expression was significantly reduced in alveolar epithelial A549 cells by DEP in a dose-dependent manner. A decrease in Sirt1 and increases in phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (p-ERK) and caspase-3 were observed after DEP exposure and ITIH4-knockdown. In conclusion, air pollution decreased ITIH4 expression in the lungs, which was associated with alveolar epithelial cell senescence and apoptosis. ITIH4 could be a vital protein in regulating alveolar cell destruction and its inhibition after exposure to air pollution.

Abstract
Radiation enteritis (RE) is the most common radiotherapy complication, and effective RE treatments are lacking. Resveratrol exerts beneficial effects on radiation injury. However, the effect of resveratrol in radiation-induced intestinal injury and the underlying mechanism remain unclear. Here, a C57BL/6 mouse model of RE was established and an intestinal epithelial cell line was used to evaluate the protective effects of resveratrol against radiation-induced intestinal injury and the underlying mechanisms. Resveratrol improved radiation-induced oxidative stress and cell apoptosis via upregulating antioxidant enzymes and downregulating p53 acetylation. In vivo, resveratrol-treated mice exhibited longer survival; longer villi; more intestinal crypt cells; upregulated expression of Ki67, catalase, and superoxide dismutase 2; and fewer inflammatory proteins and apoptotic cells. These protective effects were suppressed by inhibition of SIRT1. These results demonstrate that resveratrol can reduce radiation-induced intestinal injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and apoptosis via the SIRT1/FOXO3a and PI3K/AKT pathways.

Abstract
The decline in bone mass and bone strength and musculoskeletal problems associated with aging constitute a major challenge for affected individuals and the healthcare system globally. Sirtuins 1-7 (SIRT1-SIRT7) are a family of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylases with remarkable abilities to promote longevity and counteract age-related diseases. Sirtuin knockout and transgenic models have provided novel insights into the function and signaling of these proteins in bone homeostasis. Studies have revealed that sirtuins play a critical role in normal skeletal development and homeostasis through their direct action on bone cells and that their dysregulation might contribute to different bone diseases. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that mice treated with sirtuin agonists show protection against age-related, postmenopausal, and immobilization-induced osteoporosis. These findings suggest that sirtuins could be potential targets for the modulation of the imbalance in bone remodeling and treatment of osteoporosis and other bone disorders. The aim of this review was to provide a comprehensive updated review of the current knowledge on sirtuin biology, focusing specifically on their roles in bone homeostasis and osteoporosis, and potential pharmacological interventions targeting sirtuins for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
While radiation nephropathy is a major problem associated with radiotherapy, the exact mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis and the mediators involved in kidney deterioration remain to be elucidated. In view of the finding that senescence is typically increased post‑irradiation, the present study examined whether ionizing radiation may cause kidney injury by enhancing premature senescence. The present study explored the relevance of the aging suppressor, Klotho, which has anti‑aging activity and is highly expressed in murine renal cells/kidney tissues, under irradiation conditions. Firstly, the effects of radiation on mouse inner medullary collecting duct‑3 (mIMCD‑3) cells and kidney tissues of mice were assessed. Subsequently, the mRNA expression levels of Klotho, TNF‑α and ADAM metallopeptidase domain (ADAM)9/10/17 were analyzed by reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR following exposure to radiation. In addition, the levels of these proteins were measured by western blotting or ELISA. The results revealed that irradiation of mIMCD‑3 cells clearly triggered cellular senescence. Notably, Klotho gene expression was considerably decreased in radiation‑exposed mIMCD‑3 cells and in the kidney tissues of irradiated BALB/c mice, and the corresponding translated protein was consistently expressed following radiation exposure. Moreover, expression of TNF‑α, a negative regulator of Klotho, was significantly increased, whereas ADAM9/10/17, an ectodomain shedding enzyme of Klotho, was decreased in irradiated mIMCD‑3 cells and in the kidney tissues of BALB/c mice. Collectively, these data suggested that TNF‑α‑mediated inhibition of Klotho expression and blockage of soluble Klotho formation via decreased ADAM expression following irradiation may contribute to the development of renal dysfunction through acceleration of radiation‑induced cellular senescence.

Cartilage -specific knockout of Sirt1 significantly reduces bone quality and catch-up growth efficiency. Bone 2020; 138:115468.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spontaneous catch-up (CU) growth occurs when a growth-restricting factor is resolved. However, its efficiency is sometimes inadequate and growth deficits remain permanent. The therapeutic toolbox for short stature is currently very limited, thus, finding new regulatory pathways is important for the development of novel means of treatment. Our previous studies using a nutrition-induced CU growth model showed that the level of sirtuin-1 (Sirt1) was significantly increased in food-restricted animals and decreased during CU growth. AIM This study sought to investigate the role of Sirt1 in modulating the response of the epiphyseal growth plate (EGP) to nutritional manipulation. METHOD Collagen type II-specific Sirt1 knockout (CKO) mice were tested for response to our CU growth model consisting of a period of food restriction followed by re-feeding. RESULTS The transgenic CKO mice weighed more than the control (CTL) mice, their EGP was higher and less organized, specifically at the resting and proliferative zones, leading to shorter bones. Ablation of Sirt1 in the chondrocytes was found to have a dramatic effect on bone mineralization on micro-CT analysis. The CKO mice were less responsive to the nutritional manipulation, and their CU growth was less efficient. They remained shorter than the CTL mice who corrected the food restriction-induced growth deficit during the re-feeding period. CONCLUSIONS Sirt1 appears to be important for normal regulation of the EGP. In its absence, the EGP is less organized and CU growth is less efficient. These results suggest that SIRT1 may serve as a novel therapeutic target for short stature.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common degenerative joint diseases that affects millions of people worldwide, mainly the aging population. Despite numerous published reports, little is known about the pathology of this disease, and no feasible treatment plan exists to stop OA progression. Recently, extensive basic and clinical studies have shown that adipokines play a key role in OA development. Moreover, some drugs associated with adipokines have shown chondroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects on OA. Visfatin has been shown to play a detrimental role in the progression of OA. It increases the production of matrix metalloproteinases and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS), induces the production of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α, affects the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells to adipocytes, and induces osteophyte formation by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. Although some side effects of chemical visfatin inhibitors have been reported, they were shown to be successful in the treatment of diabetes, cancer, and other diseases that can utilize Chinese herbs, further suggesting that similar therapeutic strategies could be used in OA prevention and treatment. Here, we describe the pathophysiological mechanism of visfatin in OA and discuss some potential pharmacological interventions using Chinese herbs.

Abstract
Continued improvements in cancer therapies have increased the number of long-term cancer survivors. Radiation therapy remains one of the primary treatment modalities with about 60% of newly diagnosed cancer patients receiving radiation during the course of their disease. While radiation therapy has dramatically improved patient survival in a number of cancer types, the late effects remain a significant factor affecting the quality of life particularly in pediatric patients. Radiation-induced brain injury can result in cognitive dysfunction, including hippocampal-related learning and memory dysfunction that can escalate to dementia. In this article, we review the current understanding of the mechanisms behind radiation-induced brain injury focusing on the role of neuroinflammation and reduced hippocampal neurogenesis. Approaches to prevent or ameliorate treatment-induced side effects are also discussed along with remaining challenges in the field.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence implies a pivotal role of sirtuin-1 (Sirt1) in chondrocyte function and homeostasis; however, its underlying mechanisms mediating chondrogenesis, which is an essential process for physiological skeletal growth, are still poorly understood. In the current study, we generated TamCartSirt1-/- [Sirt1 conditional knockout (cKO)] mice to explore the role of Sirt1 during postnatal endochondral ossification. Compared with control mice, cKO mice exhibited growth retardation associated with inhibited chondrocyte proliferation and hypertrophy, as well as activated apoptosis. These effects were regulated by hyperactivation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling, and thereby inhibition of autophagy and induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress in growth plate chondrocytes. IP injection of the mTORC1 inhibitor rapamycin to mice with Sirt1 deletion partially neutralized such inhibitory effects of Sirt1 ablation on longitudinal bone growth, indicating the causative link between SIRT1 and mTORC1 signaling in the growth plate. Mechanistically, SIRT1 interacted with tuberous sclerosis complex 2 (TSC2), a key upstream negative regulator of mTORC1 signaling, and loss of Sirt1 inhibited TSC2 expression, resulting in hyperactivated mTORC1 signaling in chondrocytes. In conclusion, our findings suggest that loss of Sirt1 may trigger mTORC1 signaling in growth plate chondrocytes and contributes to growth retardation, thus indicating that SIRT1 is an important regulator during chondrogenesis and providing new insights into the clinical potential of SIRT1 in bone development.

Arsenic induces human chondrocyte senescence and accelerates rat articular cartilage aging. Arch Toxicol 2019; 94:89-101. [PMID: 31734849 DOI: 10.1007/s00204-019-02607-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2019] [Accepted: 10/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Arsenic-contaminated drinking water is known to be a serious human health problem. A previous epidemiological study has indicated that arsenic levels in blood were higher in arthritis patients compared to age-matched control subjects. Bone is known as an important arsenic store compartment in the body. Arsenic exposure has been suggested to promote senescence in human mesenchymal stem cells that may affect the balance of adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation. The toxicological effect and mechanism of arsenic exposure on articular chondrocytes still remain unclear. Here, we investigated the arsenic-induced senescence in cultured human articular chondrocytes and long-term arsenic-exposed rat articular cartilage. Arsenic trioxide (As2O3; 1-5 μM) significantly induced senescence in human articular chondrocytes by increasing senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) activity and protein expression of p16, p53, and p21. Arsenic induced the phosphorylation of p38 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) proteins. The inhibitors of p38 and JNK significantly reversed the arsenic-induced chondrocyte senescence. Arsenic could also trigger the induction of GATA4-NF-κB signaling and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) by increasing IL-1α, IL-1β, TGF-β, TNF-α, CCL2, PAI-1, and MMP13 mRNA expression. The increased cartilage senescence and abrasion were also observed in a rat model long-term treatment with arsenic (0.05 and 0.5 ppm) in drinking water for 36 weeks as compared to age-matched control rats. The phosphorylation of p38 and JNK and the induction of GATA4-NF-κB signaling and SASP were enhanced in the rat cartilages. Taken together, these findings suggest that arsenic exposure is capable of inducing chondrocyte senescence and accelerating rat articular cartilage aging and abrasion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by cartilage degeneration resulting from hypertrophic changes in chondrocytes caused by altered gene expression. The involvement of Ras homolog enriched in brain (RHEB) in OA regulation is unclear. METHODS Human knee articular cartilage samples - were analyzed for structural and biological changes by histology, immunohistochemistry, real time PCR and western blotting. OA-mouse model developed by surgical destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) were treated with adenovirus harboring Rheb gene to analyze onset and progression of OA. Histological scoring, immunohistochemistry, and TUNEL assay was performed to assess cartilage damage across the entire joint. RESULTS Human and mouse OA cartilage is degenerated and has markedly reduced levels of RHEB. Human OA-degenerated chondrocytes (DC) exhibited a fibroblastic phenotype and 80 % of degenerative cartilage were senescent, with higher levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Gene expression analysis of DC revealed almost no COL2A1 expression and reduced SOX9 and RHEB expression. Transient transfection of RHEB rescued the DC phenotype and reduced senescence and ROS levels markedly. RHEB overexpression also increased COL2A1 and SOX9 expression. In an OA-mouse model, the Rheb protein level decreased as the severity of OA increased. Ectopic expression of Rheb using adenovirus in mouse-OA cartilage suppressed surgically-induced OA pathogenesis accompanied by modulation of Adamts5, Mmp 13, Col 10, and Col2a1 expression. Rheb induction significantly reduced apoptosis in OA-cartilage. CONCLUSION RHEB plays an important role in maintaining the chondrogenic characteristics of chondrocytes, and has potential in preventing progression of OA in the destabilize the medial meniscus (DMM) mouse model of OA.

The role of sirtuin 1 and its activator, resveratrol in osteoarthritis. Biosci Rep 2019; 39:BSR20190189.

Abstract
Osteoarthitis (OA) is the most common aging-related joint pathology; the aging process results in changes to joint tissues that ultimately contribute to the development of OA. Articular chondrocytes exhibit an aging-related decline in their proliferative and synthetic capacity. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT 1), a longevity gene related to many diseases associated with aging, is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent protein deacetylase and master metabolic regulator. Along with its natural activator resveratrol, SIRT 1 actively participates in the OA pathological progress. SIRT 1 expression in osteoarthritic cartilage decreases in the disease progression of OA; it appears to play a predominantly regulatory role in OA. SIRT 1 can regulate the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM)-related proteins; promote mesenchymal stem cell differentiation; play anti-catabolic, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress, and anti-apoptosis roles; participate in the autophagic process; and regulate bone homeostasis in OA. Resveratrol can activate SIRT 1 in order to inhibit OA disease progression. In the future, activating SIRT 1 via resveratrol with improved bioavailability may be an appropriate therapeutic approach for OA.

Abstract
Human aging-related changes are exacerbated in cases of disease and cancer, and conversely aging is a catalyst for the occurrence of disease and multimorbidity. For example, old age is the most significant risk factor for cancer and among people who suffer from cancer, >60% are above the age of 65. Oxidative stress and DNA damage, leading to genomic instability and telomere dysfunction, are prevalent in aging and radiation-induced damage and are major cellular events that lead to senescence. Human exposures from nuclear fallout, cosmic radiation and clinical radiotherapy (RT) are some common sources of irradiation that affect bone tissue. RT has been used to treat malignant tumors for over a century, but the effects of radiation damage on tumor-adjacent normal tissue has largely been overlooked. There is an increase in the percent survivorship among patients post-RT, and it is in older survivors where the deleterious synergy between aging and radiation exposure conspires to promote tissue deterioration and dysfunction which then negatively impacts their quality of life. Thus, an aging skeleton is already pre-disposed to architectural deterioration, which is further worsened by radiation-induced bone damage. Effects of senescence and the senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP) have been implicated in age-associated bone loss, but their roles in radiation-associated bone damage are still elusive. RT is used in treatment for a variety of cancers and in different anatomical locations, the sequelae of which include long-term morbidity and lifelong discomfort. Therefore, consideration of the growing evidence that implicates the role of senescence in radiation-induced bone damage argues in favor of exploiting current senotherapeutic approaches as a possible prevention or treatment.

Stress-induced precocious aging in PD-patient iPSC-derived NSCs may underlie the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease. Cell Death Dis 2019; 10:105.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is an aging-related degenerative disorder arisen from the loss of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra. Although many genetic mutations have been implicated to be genetically linked to PD, the low incidence of familial PD carried with mutations suggests that there must be other factors such as oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, accumulation of misfolded proteins, and enhanced inflammation, which are contributable to the pathophysiology of PD. The major efforts of current research have been devoted to unravel the toxic effect of multiple factors, which directly cause the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in adulthood. Until recently, several studies have demonstrated that NSCs had compromised proliferation and differentiation capacity in PD animal models or PD patient-derived iPS models, suggesting that the pathology of PD may be rooted in some cellular aberrations at early developmental stage but the mechanism remains to be elusive. Based on the early-onset PD patient-specific iPSCs, we found that PD-patient iPSC-derived NSCs were more susceptible to stress and became functionally compromised by radiation or oxidative insults. We further unraveled that stress-induced SIRT1 downregulation leading to autophagic dysfunction, which were responsible for these deficits in PD-NSCs. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that stress-induced activation of p38 MAPK suppressed SIRT1 expression, which in turn augmented the acetylation of multiple ATG proteins of autophagic complex and eventually led to autophagic deficits. Our studies suggest that early developmental deficits may, at least partially, contribute to the pathology of PD and provide a new avenue for developing better therapeutic interventions to PD.

Abstract
Background:Radiotherapy is a treatment modality for cancer. For better therapeutic efficiency, it could be used in combination with surgery, chemotherapy or immunotherapy. In addition to its beneficial therapeutic effects, exposure to radiation leads to several toxic effects on normal tissues. Also, it may induce some changes in genomic expression of tumor cells, thereby increasing the resistance of tumor cells. These changes lead to the appearance of some acute reactions in irradiated organs, increased risk of carcinogenesis, and reduction in the therapeutic effect of radiotherapy.Discussion:So far, several studies have proposed different targets such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), some toll-like receptors (TLRs), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) etc., for the amelioration of radiation toxicity and enhancing tumor response. NADPH oxidase includes five NOX and two dual oxidases (DUOX1 and DUOX2) subfamilies that through the production of superoxide and hydrogen peroxide, play key roles in oxidative stress and several signaling pathways involved in early and late effects of ionizing radiation. Chronic ROS production by NOX enzymes can induce genomic instability, thereby increasing the risk of carcinogenesis. Also, these enzymes are able to induce cell death, especially through apoptosis and senescence that may affect tissue function. ROS-derived NADPH oxidase causes apoptosis in some organs such as intestine and tongue, which mediate inflammation. Furthermore, continuous ROS production stimulates fibrosis via stimulation of fibroblast differentiation and collagen deposition. Evidence has shown that in contrast to normal tissues, the NOX system induces tumor resistance to radiotherapy through some mechanisms such as induction of hypoxia, stimulation of proliferation, and activation of macrophages. However, there are some contradictory results. Inhibition of NADPH oxidase in experimental studies has shown promising results for both normal tissue protection and tumor sensitization to ionizing radiation.Conclusion:In this article, we aimed to review the role of different subfamilies of NADPH oxidase in radiation-induced early and late normal tissue toxicities in different organs.

Abstract
Articular cartilage is a specialized connective tissue, predominately composed of water, collagen, and proteoglycans, that provides a smooth, lubricated surface for articulation in joints. It has long been considered radioinsensitive and therefore unaffected by exposure to radiation in medical settings. Due to the increased amount of yearly radiation exposure through radiotherapy and ionizing radiation diagnostic procedures, there has been a renewed interest in how radioinsensitive articular cartilage actually is. Despite this renewed interest, the majority of these studies do not focus on articular cartilage as their primary goal, but rather, have observed the effects of total body irradiation. Since many of these studies do not report the type of irradiation used, the rate of exposure, or use consistent models, there are inconsistencies in these studies, which make comparing and translating the results difficult. Previous literature reviews have found less than 60 studies discussing the effects of radiation on articular cartilage and its components both in vitro and in vivo. However, despite the inconsistencies, these reviews and studies have drawn the same overall conclusion that this research needs to be continued and broadened in order to make a consistent conclusion on the radioinsensitivity of articular cartilage. Therefore, the goal of this review is to categorize and summarize current findings in literature discussing the effects of radiation on articular cartilage.

Abstract
Radiotherapy continues to be one of the most accepted medical treatments for cancer. Localized irradiation is the most common treatment for prostate, pancreatic, rectal, cervical and endometrial malignancies. Conventional localized fractions are total doses of 30-62Gy at 1.8-2Gy per fraction, with administration of ~60Gy often used for tumor ablation. However, even the lowest dose of localized irradiation exposure can result in adverse complications to adjacent organs, tissues, and vessels, which absorb a portion of the treatment. Skeletal complications are common amongst cancer patients undergoing these localized treatments. Irradiation exposure causes deterioration to the overall quantity and quality of bone by interfering with the trabecular architecture through increased osteoclast activity and decreased osteoblast activity. Irradiation-induced bone damage parallels adipocyte infiltration of the bone marrow (BM) resulting in compositional alterations of the microenvironment that may further affect bone quality and disease state. There may also be direct effects of irradiation on the BM adipocyte/pre-adipocyte, although in vitro findings do not always agree and cellular response is dependent on irradiation dosage. Hematopoietic cells also become apoptotic upon irradiation, which causes a range of skeletal effects. Bone loss leaves patients at a greater risk for osteopenia, osteoporosis, osteonecrosis, and skeletal fractures that drastically reduce quality of life. Osteoanabolic agents stimulate bone formation and reduce fracture risk in patients with low bone density; thus, osteoanabolic or anti-resorptive agents may be useful co-treatments with irradiation. This review discusses these topics and proposes further research directions using novel or combination therapies to enhance bone health during irradiation.

Abstract
Purpose Data on the response of chondrocytes differentiated from hiPSCs (hiPSC-DCHs) to ionizing radiation (IR) are lacking. The aim of present study was to assess DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms of IR-treated hiPSC-DCHs. Methods and materials The following IR-response characteristics in irradiated hiPSC-DCHs were assessed: 1) the kinetics of DNA DSB formation; 2) activation of major DNA repair mechanisms; 3) cell cycle changes and 4) reactive oxygen species (ROS), level of key markers of apoptosis and senescence. Results DNA DSBs were observed in 30% of the hiPSC-DCHs overall, and in 60% after high-dose (> 2 Gy) IR. Nevertheless, these cells displayed efficient DNA repair mechanisms, which reduced the DSBs over time until it reached 30% by activating key genes involved in homologous recombination and non-homologous end joining mechanisms. As similar to mature chondrocytes, irradiated hiPSC-DCH cells revealed accumulation of cells in G2 phase. Overall, the hiPSC-DCH cells were characterized by low levels of ROS, cPARP and high levels of senescence. Conclusions The chondrocyte-like cells derived from hiPSC demonstrated features characteristic of both mature chondrocytes and “parental” hiPSCs. The main difference between hiPSC-derived chondrocytes and hiPSCs and mature chondrocytes appears to be the more efficient DDR mechanism of hiPSC-DCHs. The unique properties of these cells suggest that they could potentially be used safely in regenerative medicine if these preliminary findings are confirmed in future studies.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation-exposure induces a variety of cellular reactions, such as senescence and apoptosis. Senescence is a permanent arrest state of the cell division, which can be beneficial or detrimental for normal tissue via an inflammatory response and senescence-associated secretion phenotype. Damage to healthy cells and their microenvironment is considered as an important source of early and late complications with an increased risk of morbidity in patients after radiotherapy (RT). In addition, the benefit/risk ratio may depend on the radiation technique/dose used for cancer eradication and the irradiated volume of healthy tissues. For radiation-induced fibrosis risk, the knowledge of mechanisms and potential prevention has become a crucial point to determining radiation parameters and patients' intrinsic radiosensitivity. This review summarizes our understanding of ionizing radiation-induced senescent cell in fibrogenesis. This mechanism may provide new insights for therapeutic modalities for better risk/benefit ratios after RT in the new era of personalized treatments.

Abstract
Intervertebral discs (IVDs) are the joints of the spine, mainly consisting of extracellular matrix (ECM) with a low number of cells embedded therein. Low cellularity stems from nutrient deprivation due to the lack of blood supply, as well as from the hypoxic and hyperosmotic conditions prevailing in the tissue. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) has been firmly connected with low back pain, a major age-related disease, whereas degenerated discs have been characterized by increased proteolytic activity and accumulation of senescent cells. While the catabolic phenotype of senescent IVD cells has been documented, whether this phenotype is preserved under the harsh conditions met in the IVD milieu has never been investigated. Here we showed that a combination of low glucose, hypoxia, high osmolality and absence of serum is anti-proliferative for young disc cells. In addition, we demonstrated for the first time that classical senescence markers, namely p16INK4a, p21WAF1 and ICAM-1, remain up-regulated in senescent cells under these conditions. Finally, up-regulation of the main senescence-associated ECM degrading enzymes, i.e. MMP-1, -2 and -3 was maintained in this strict environment. Conservation of IVD cells' senescent phenotype under the actual conditions these cells are confronted with in vivo further supports their possible implication in IDD.

Abstract
The NAD+-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) has emerged as an important regulator of chondrogenesis and cartilage homeostasis, processes that are important for physiological skeletal growth and that are dysregulated in osteoarthritis. However, the functional role and underlying mechanism by which SIRT1 regulates chondrogenesis remain unclear. Using cultured rat metatarsal bones and chondrocytes isolated from rat metatarsal rudiments, here we studied the effects of the SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 or of SIRT1 siRNA on chondrocyte proliferation, hypertrophy, and apoptosis. We show that EX527 or SIRT1 siRNA inhibits chondrocyte proliferation and hypertrophy and induces apoptosis. We also observed that SIRT1 inhibition mainly induces the PERK-eIF-2α-CHOP axis of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response in growth-plate chondrocytes. Of note, EX527- or SIRT1 siRNA-mediated inhibition of metatarsal growth and growth-plate chondrogenesis were partly neutralized by phenylbutyric acid, a chemical chaperone that attenuates ER stress. Moreover, EX527-mediated impairment of chondrocyte function (i.e. of chondrocyte proliferation, hypertrophy, and apoptosis) was partly reversed in CHOP-/- cells. We also present evidence that SIRT1 physically interacts with and deacetylates PERK. Collectively, our findings indicate that SIRT1 deacetylates PERK and attenuates the PERK-eIF-2α-CHOP axis of the unfolded protein response pathway and thereby promotes growth-plate chondrogenesis and longitudinal bone growth.

Abstract
Excessive DNA damage induced by ionising radiation (IR) to normal tissue cells is known to trigger cellular senescence, a process termed stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS). SIPS is often accompanied by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and this is reported to be important for the initiation and maintenance of SIPS. However, the source of ROS during SIPS after IR and their significance in radiation-induced normal tissue damage remain elusive. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that the NADPH oxidase (NOX) family of proteins mediates ROS production in SIPS-induced cells after IR and plays a role in SIPS-associated biological events. X-irradiation of primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) resulted in cellular senescence and the concomitant increase of intracellular ROS. Among all six murine NOX isoforms (NOX1-4 and DUOX1/2), only NOX4 was detectable under basal conditions and was upregulated following IR. In addition, radiation-induced ROS production was diminished by genetic or pharmacological inhibition of NOX4. Meanwhile, NOX4 deficiency did not affect the induction of cellular senescence after IR. Furthermore, the migration of human monocytic U937 cells to the culture medium collected from irradiated MEFs was significantly reduced by NOX4 inhibition, suggesting that NOX4 promotes the recruitment of inflammatory cells. Collectively, our findings imply that NOX4 mediates ROS production in radiation-induced senescent cells and contributes to normal tissue damage after IR via the recruitment of inflammatory cells and the exacerbation of tissue inflammation.

Abstract
Aging and exposure to stress would determine the chondrocyte phenotype in osteoarthritis (OA). In particular, chronic inflammation may contribute to stress-induced senescence of chondrocytes and cartilage degeneration during OA progression. Recent studies have shown that adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exert paracrine effects protecting against degenerative changes in chondrocytes. We have investigated whether the conditioned medium (CM) from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells may regulate senescence features induced by inflammatory stress in OA chondrocytes. Our results indicate that CM down-regulated senescence markers induced by interleukin-1β including senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity, accumulation of γH2AX foci and morphological changes with enhanced formation of actin stress fibers. Treatment of chondrocytes with CM also decreased the production of oxidative stress, the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases, and the expression of caveolin-1 and p21. The effects of CM were related to the reduction in p53 acetylation which would be dependent on the enhancement of Sirtuin 1 expression. Therefore, CM may exert protective effects in degenerative joint conditions by countering the premature senescence of OA chondrocytes induced by inflammatory stress.

O-GlcNAcylation of SIRT1 enhances its deacetylase activity and promotes cytoprotection under stress. Nat Commun 2017; 8:1491.

Abstract
SIRT1 is the most evolutionarily conserved mammalian sirtuin, and it plays a vital role in the regulation of metabolism, stress responses, genome stability, and ageing. As a stress sensor, SIRT1 deacetylase activity is significantly increased during stresses, but the molecular mechanisms are not yet fully clear. Here, we show that SIRT1 is dynamically modified with O-GlcNAc at Ser 549 in its carboxy-terminal region, which directly increases its deacetylase activity both in vitro and in vivo. The O-GlcNAcylation of SIRT1 is elevated during genotoxic, oxidative, and metabolic stress stimuli in cellular and mouse models, thereby increasing SIRT1 deacetylase activity and protecting cells from stress-induced apoptosis. Our findings demonstrate a new mechanism for the activation of SIRT1 under stress conditions and suggest a novel potential therapeutic target for preventing age-related diseases and extending healthspan. SIRT1 is a stress sensor whose deacetylase activity is increased during cellular stress, but the molecular mechanism is unclear. Here, the authors show that O-GlcNAcylation of SIRT1 is elevated upon different stress stimuli and increases SIRT1 deacetylase activity, protecting cells from stress-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
The past decade has witnessed many advances in the understanding of sirtuin biology and related regulatory circuits supporting the capacity of these proteins to serve as energy-sensing molecules that contribute to healthspan in various tissues, including articular cartilage. Hence, there has been a significant increase in new investigations that aim to elucidate the mechanisms of sirtuin function and their roles in cartilage biology, skeletal development, and pathologies such as osteoarthritis (OA), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and intervertebral disc degeneration (IVD). The majority of the work carried out to date has focused on SIRT1, although SIRT6 has more recently become a focus of some investigations. In vivo work with transgenic mice has shown that Sirt1 and Sirt6 are essential for maintaining cartilage homeostasis and that the use of sirtuin-activating molecules such as resveratrol may have beneficial effects on cartilage anabolism. Current thinking is that SIRT1 exerts positive effects on cartilage by encouraging chondrocyte survival, especially under stress conditions, which may provide a mechanism supporting the use of sirtuin small-molecule activators (STACS) for future therapeutic interventions in OA and other degenerative pathologies of joints, especially those that involve articular cartilage.

Abstract
Simvastatin is a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor widely used to lower plasma cholesterol and to protect against cardiovascular risk factors. The aim of this study was to investigate whether simvastatin attenuates ionizing radiation-induced damage in the mouse thymus and to elucidate the possible mechanisms invovled. For this purpose, male C57BL/6J mice aged 6 weeks were used and exposed to 4 Gy 60Co γ-radiation with or without simvastatin (20 mg/kg/day, for 14 days). Apoptosis was determined by terminal deoxynucle-otidyltransferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay or transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examination. Thymocytes were also isolated and incubated in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS at 37°C and exposed to 8 Gy 60Co γ-radiation with or without simvastatin (20 µM). The expression levels of Bcl-2, p53, p-p53, AKT, sirtuin 1 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) were determined by western blot analysis. TUNEL and TEM examination revealed that simvastatin treatment significantly mitigated ionizing radiation-induced apoptosis in the mouse thymus. It was also found that simvastatin treatment increased AKT/sirtuin 1 expression following exposure to ionizing radiation in vivo and in vitro. In the in vivo model, but not in the in vitro model, Bcl-2 and PARP expression was augmented and that of p53/p-p53 decreased following treatment with simvastatin. On the whole, our findings indicate that simvastatin exerts a protective effect against ionizing radiation-induced damage in the mouse thymus, which may be partially attributed to the activation of the AKT/sirtuin 1 pathway.
