Mitochondrial protein deacetylation by SIRT3 in osteoclasts promotes bone resorption with aging in female mice. Mol Metab 2024; 88:102012. [PMID: 39154858 PMCID: PMC11399565 DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2024.102012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The mitochondrial deacetylase sirtuin-3 (SIRT3) is necessary for the increased bone resorption and enhanced function of mitochondria in osteoclasts that occur with advancing age; how SIRT3 drives bone resorption remains elusive. METHODS To determine the role of SIRT3 in osteoclast mitochondria, we used mice with conditional loss of Sirt3 in osteoclast lineage and mice with germline deletion of either Sirt3 or its known target Pink1. RESULTS SIRT3 stimulates mitochondrial quality in osteoclasts in a PINK1-independent manner, promoting mitochondrial activity and osteoclast maturation and function, thereby contributing to bone loss in female but not male mice. Quantitative analyses of global proteomes and acetylomes revealed that deletion of Sirt3 dramatically increased acetylation of osteoclast mitochondrial proteins, particularly ATPase inhibitory factor 1 (ATPIF1), an essential protein for mitophagy. Inhibition of mitophagy via mdivi-1 recapitulated the effect of deletion of Sirt3 or Atpif1 in osteoclast formation and mitochondrial function. CONCLUSIONS Decreasing mitophagic flux in osteoclasts may be a promising pharmacotherapeutic approach to treat osteoporosis in older adults.

Abstract
Owing to its tyrosinase inhibitory activity, α-arbutin has been added to several skin care products as a skin-lightening agent. However, the protective effect of α-arbutin against ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced photoaging has not been well investigated. The present study was designed to investigate the photoprotective effect and mechanism of α-arbutin against UVA-induced photoaging. In vitro experiments, HaCaT cells were treated with UVA at a dose of 3 J/cm2 to evaluate the anti-photoaging effect of α-arbutin. α-Arbutin was found to exhibit a strong antioxidant effect by increasing glutathione (GSH) level and inhibiting reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Meanwhile, α-arbutin markedly improved the expression of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1 α (PGC-1α) proteins, initiating downstream signaling to increase mitochondrial membrane potential and mediate mitochondrial biogenesis, and improve mitochondrial structure significantly. In vivo analysis, the mice with shaved back hair were irradiated with a cumulative UVA dose of 10 J/cm2 and a cumulative ultraviolet B (UVB) dose of 0.63 J/cm2. The animal experiments demonstrated that α-arbutin increased the expression of SIRT3 and PGC-1α proteins in the back skin of mice, thereby reducing UV-induced skin damage. In conclusion, α-arbutin protects HaCaT cells and mice from UVA damage by regulating SIRT3/PGC-1α signaling pathway.

Abstract
Several metabolites have been shown to have independent and at times unexpected biological effects outside of their metabolic pathways. These include succinate, lactate, fumarate, and 2-hydroxyglutarate. 2-Hydroxybutyrate (2HB) is a byproduct of endogenous cysteine synthesis, produced during periods of cellular stress. 2HB rises acutely after exercise; it also rises during infection and is also chronically increased in a number of metabolic disorders. We show here that 2HB inhibits branched-chain aminotransferase enzymes, which in turn triggers a SIRT4-dependent shift in the compartmental abundance of protein ADP-ribosylation. The 2HB-induced decrease in nuclear protein ADP-ribosylation leads to a C/EBPβ-mediated transcriptional response in the branched-chain amino acid degradation pathway. This response to 2HB exposure leads to an improved oxidative capacity in vitro. We found that repeated injection with 2HB can replicate the improvement to oxidative capacity that occurs following exercise training. Together, we show that 2-HB regulates fundamental aspects of skeletal muscle metabolism.

Abstract
The sirtuin family comprises seven NAD+-dependent enzymes which catalyze protein lysine deacylation and mono ADP-ribosylation. Sirtuins act as central regulators of genomic stability and gene expression and control key processes, including energetic metabolism, cell cycle, differentiation, apoptosis, and aging. As a result, all sirtuins play critical roles in cellular homeostasis and organism wellness, and their dysregulation has been linked to metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological diseases. Furthermore, sirtuins have shown dichotomous roles in cancer, acting as context-dependent tumor suppressors or promoters. Given their central role in different cellular processes, sirtuins have attracted increasing research interest aimed at developing both activators and inhibitors. Indeed, sirtuin modulation may have therapeutic effects in many age-related diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Moreover, isoform selective modulators may increase our knowledge of sirtuin biology and aid to develop better therapies. Through this review, we provide critical insights into sirtuin pharmacology and illustrate their enzymatic activities and biological functions. Furthermore, we outline the most relevant sirtuin modulators in terms of their modes of action, structure-activity relationships, pharmacological effects, and clinical applications.

Abstract
Cadmium (Cd) is a neurotoxic contaminant that induces cognitive decline similar to that observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Autophagic flux dysfunction is attributed to the pathogenesis of AD, and this study aimed to investigate the effect of autophagy on environmental Cd-induced AD progression and the underlying mechanism. Here, Cd exposure inhibited autophagosome-lysosome fusion and impaired lysosomal function, leading to defects in autophagic clearance and then to APP accumulation and nerve cell death. Proteomic analysis coupled with Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) identified SIRT5 as an essential molecular target in Cd-impaired autophagic flux. Mechanistically, Cd exposure hampered the expression of SIRT5, thus increasing the succinylation of RAB7A at lysine 31 and inhibiting RAB7A activity, which contributed to autophagic flux blockade. Importantly, SIRT5 overexpression led to the restoration of autophagic flux blockade, the alleviation of Aβ deposition and memory deficits, and the desuccinylation of RAB7A in Cd-exposed FAD4T mice. Additionally, SIRT5 levels decrease mainly in neurons but not in other cell clusters in the brains of AD patients according to single-nucleus RNA sequencing data from the public dataset GSE188545. This study reveals that SIRT5-catalysed RAB7A desuccinylation is an essential adaptive mechanism for the amelioration of Cd-induced autophagic flux blockade and AD-like pathogenesis.

Abstract
This review systematizes information about the metabolic features of breast cancer directly related to oxidative stress. It has been shown those redox changes occur at all levels and affect many regulatory systems in the human body. The features of the biochemical processes occurring in breast cancer are described, ranging from nonspecific, at first glance, and strictly biochemical to hormone-induced reactions, genetic and epigenetic regulation, which allows for a broader and deeper understanding of the principles of oncogenesis, as well as maintaining the viability of cancer cells in the mammary gland. Specific pathways of the activation of oxidative stress have been studied as a response to the overproduction of stress hormones and estrogens, and specific ways to reduce its negative impact have been described. The diversity of participants that trigger redox reactions from different sides is considered more fully: glycolytic activity in breast cancer, and the nature of consumption of amino acids and metals. The role of metals in oxidative stress is discussed in detail. They can act as both co-factors and direct participants in oxidative stress, since they are either a trigger mechanism for lipid peroxidation or capable of activating signaling pathways that affect tumorigenesis. Special attention has been paid to the genetic and epigenetic regulation of breast tumors. A complex cascade of mechanisms of epigenetic regulation is explained, which made it possible to reconsider the existing opinion about the triggers and pathways for launching the oncological process, the survival of cancer cells and their ability to localize.

Abstract
The sirtuin (SIRT) family is well-known as a group of deacetylase enzymes that rely on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Among them, mitochondrial SIRTs (SIRT3, SIRT4, and SIRT5) are deacetylases located in mitochondria that regulate the acetylation levels of several key proteins to maintain mitochondrial function and redox homeostasis. Mitochondrial SIRTs are reported to have the Janus role in tumorigenesis, either tumor suppressive or oncogenic functions. Although the multi-faceted roles of mitochondrial SIRTs with tumor-type specificity in tumorigenesis, their critical functions have aroused a rising interest in discovering some small-molecule compounds, including inhibitors and activators for cancer therapy. Herein, we describe the molecular structures of mitochondrial SIRTs, focusing on elucidating their regulatory mechanisms in carcinogenesis, and further discuss the recent advances in developing their targeted small-molecule compounds for cancer therapy. Together, these findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the crucial roles of mitochondrial SIRTs in cancer and potential new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Skin aging is characterized by wrinkle formation and increased frailty and laxity, leading to the risk of age-related skin diseases. Keratinocyte is an important component of the epidermis in skin structure, and keratinocyte senescence has been identified as a pivotal factor in skin aging development. Because epigenetic pathways play a vital role in the regulation of skin aging, we evaluated human skin samples for DNA hydroxymethylation (5-hydroxymethylcytosine; 5-hmC) and SIRT4 expressions. Results found that both 5-hmC and SIRT4 showed a significant decrease in aged human skin samples. To test the results in vitro, human keratinocytes were cultured in H2O2, which modulates skin aging in vivo. However, H2O2-induced keratinocytes showed senescence-associated protein expression and significant downregulation of 5-hmC and SIRT4 expressions. Moreover, 5-hmC-converting enzymes ten eleven translocation 2 (TET2) showed a decrease and enhanced TET2 acetylation level in H2O2-induced keratinocytes. However, the overexpression of SIRT4 in keratinocytes alleviates the senescence phenotype, such as senescence-associated protein expression, decreases the TET2 acetylation, but increases TET2 and 5-hmC expressions. Our results provide a novel relevant mechanism whereby the epigenetic regulation of keratinocytes in skin aging may be correlated with SIRT4 expression and TET2 acetylation in 5-hmC alteration. Our study may provide a potential strategy for antiskin aging, which targets the SIRT4/TET2 axis involving epigenetic modification in keratinocyte senescence.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Mounting evidence suggests that cytochrome P450 epoxygenase-derived metabolites of docosahexaenoic acid, called epoxydocosapentaenoic acids (EDPs), limit mitochondrial damage after cardiac injury. In particular, the 19,20-EDP regioisomer has demonstrated potent cardioprotective action. Thus, we investigated our novel synthetic 19,20-EDP analog SA-22 for protection against cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Isolated C57BL/6J mouse hearts were perfused through Langendorff apparatus for 20 minutes to obtain baseline function, followed by 30 minutes of global ischemia. Hearts were then treated with vehicle, 19,20-EDP, SA-22, or SA-22 with the pan-sirtuin inhibitor nicotinamide or the SIRT3-selective inhibitor 3-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) pyridine (3-TYP) at the start of 40 minutes reperfusion (N = 5-8). We assessed IR injury-induced changes in recovery of myocardial function, using left ventricular developed pressure and systolic and diastolic pressure change. Tissues were assessed for electron transport chain function, SIRT1 and SIRT3, optic atrophy type 1, and caspase-1. We also used H9c2 cells in an in vitro model of hypoxia/reoxygenation injury (N = 3-6). Hearts perfused with SA-22 had significantly improved postischemic left ventricular developed pressure, systolic and diastolic recovery (64% of baseline), compared with vehicle control (15% of baseline). In addition, treatment with SA-22 led to better catalytic function observed in electron transport chain and SIRT enzymes. The protective action of SA-22 resulted in reduced activation of pyroptosis in both hearts and cells after injury. Interestingly, although nicotinamide cotreatment worsened functional outcomes, cell survival, and attenuated sirtuin activity, it failed to completely attenuate SA-22-induced protection against pyroptosis, possibly indicating EDPs exert cytoprotection through pleiotropic mechanisms. In short, these data demonstrate the potential of our novel synthetic 19,20-EDP analog, SA-22, against IR/hypoxia-reoxygenation injury and justify further development of therapeutic agents based on 19,20-EDP.

Abstract
Mitochondria are important organelles in cells responsible for energy production and regulation. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Oligomycin sensitivity-conferring protein (OSCP), a component of the inner mitochondrial membrane, has been studied for a long time. OSCP is a component of the F1Fo-ATP synthase in mitochondria and is closely related to the regulation of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). Studies have shown that OSCP plays an important role in cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders, and tumor development. This review summarizes the localization, structure, function, and regulatory mechanisms of OSCP and outlines its role in cardiovascular disease, neurological disease, and tumor development. In addition, this article reviews the research on the interaction between OSCP and mPTP. Finally, the article suggests future research directions, including further exploration of the mechanism of action of OSCP, the interaction between OSCP and other proteins and signaling pathways, and the development of new treatment strategies for mitochondrial dysfunction. In conclusion, in-depth research on OSCP will help to elucidate its importance in cell function and disease and provide new ideas for the treatment and prevention of related diseases.

Abstract
Metabolic reprogramming is a common hallmark of cancers and involves alterations in many metabolic pathways during tumor initiation and progression. However, the cancer-specific modulation of metabolic reprogramming requires further elucidation. Succinylation, a newly identified protein posttranslational modification (PTM), participates in many cellular processes by transferring a succinyl group to a residue of the target protein, which is related to various pathological disorders including cancers. In recent years, there has been a gradual increase in the number of studies on the regulation of tumors by protein succinylation. Notably, accumulating evidence suggests that succinylation can mediate cancer cell metabolism by altering the structure or activity of metabolism-related proteins and plays vital roles in metabolic reprogramming. Furthermore, some antitumor drugs have been linked to succinylation-mediated tumor-associated metabolism. To better elucidate lysine succinylation mediated tumor metabolic reprogramming, this review mainly summarizes recent studies on the regulation and effects of protein succinylation in tumors, focusing on the metabolic regulation of tumorigenesis and development, which will provide new directions for cancer diagnosis as well as possible therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the complex phenotypes of coronary artery disease, which results from the interaction of multiple genetic and environmental factors. Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) is an important cofactor regulating metabolic homeostasis and a rate-limiting substrate for sirtuin (SIRT) deacetylase. Numerous NAD+ studies have shown that it can be used as an anti-MI treatment. However, there have been few systematic reviews of the overall role of NAD+ in treating MI. MI, which has long been a global health problem, still lacks effective treatment till now, and the discovery of NAD+ provides a new perspective on its adjuvant treatment. This review summarizes the role of NAD+ signaling in SIRTs in alleviating MI.

Abstract
Cancer cells show increased glutamine consumption. The glutaminase (GLS) enzyme controls a limiting step in glutamine catabolism. Breast tumors, especially the triple-negative subtype, have a high expression of GLS. Our recent study demonstrated that GLS activity and ammonia production are inhibited by sirtuin 5 (SIRT5). We developed MC3138, a selective SIRT5 activator. Treatment with MC3138 mimicked the deacetylation effect mediated by SIRT5 overexpression. Moreover, GLS activity was regulated by inorganic phosphate (Pi). Considering the interconnected roles of GLS, SIRT5 and Pi in cancer growth, our hypothesis is that activation of SIRT5 and reduction in Pi could represent a valid antitumoral strategy. Treating cells with MC3138 and lanthanum acetate, a Pi chelator, decreased cell viability and clonogenicity. We also observed a modulation of MAP1LC3B and ULK1 with MC3138 and lanthanum acetate. Interestingly, inhibition of the mitophagy marker BNIP3 was observed only in the presence of MC3138. Autophagy and mitophagy modulation were accompanied by an increase in cytosolic and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). In conclusion, our results show how SIRT5 activation and/or Pi binding can represent a valid strategy to inhibit cell proliferation by reducing glutamine metabolism and mitophagy, leading to a deleterious accumulation of ROS.

Abstract
SIRT5 has been implicated in various physiological processes and human diseases, including cancer. Development of new highly potent, selective SIRT5 inhibitors is still needed to investigate disease-related mechanisms and therapeutic potentials. We here report new ε-N-thioglutaryllysine derivatives, which were designed according to SIRT5-catalysed deacylation reactions. These ε-N-thioglutaryllysine derivatives displayed potent SIRT5 inhibition, of which the potential photo-crosslinking derivative 8 manifested most potent inhibition with an IC50 value of 120 nM to SIRT5, and low inhibition to SIRT1-3 and SIRT6. The enzyme kinetic assays revealed that the ε-N-thioglutaryllysine derivatives inhibit SIRT5 by lysine-substrate competitive manner. Co-crystallographic analyses demonstrated that 8 binds to occupy the lysine-substate binding site by making hydrogen-bonding and electrostatic interactions with SIRT5-specific residues, and is likely positioned to react with NAD+ and form stable thio-intermediates. Compound 8 was observed to have low photo-crosslinking probability to SIRT5, possibly due to inappropriate position of the diazirine group as observed in SIRT5:8 crystal structure. This study provides useful information for developing drug-like inhibitors and cross-linking chemical probes for SIRT5-related studies.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third most common cause of death from cancer worldwide. Therapeutic strategies are still challenging due to the high relapse rate after surgery and multidrug resistance (MDR). It is essential to better understand the mechanisms for HCC progression and MDR for the development of new therapeutic strategies. Mammalian sirtuins (SIRTs), a family of seven members, are related to tumor progression, MDR and prognosis and were proposed as potential prognostic markers, as well as therapeutic targets for treating cancer. SIRT1 is the most studied member and is overexpressed in HCC, playing an oncogenic role and predicting poor prognosis. Several manuscripts describe the role of SIRTs2-7 in HCC; most of them report an oncogenic role for SIRT2 and -7 and a suppressive role for SIRT3 and -4. The scenario is more confusing for SIRT5 and -6, since information is contradictory and scarce. For SIRT1 many inhibitors are available and they seem to hold therapeutic promise in HCC. For the other members the development of specific modulators has just started. This review is aimed to describe the features of SIRTs1-7 in HCC, and the role they play in the onset and progression of the disease. Also, when possible, we will depict the information related to the SIRTs modulators that have been tested in HCC and their possible implication in MDR. With this, we hope to clarify the role of each member in HCC and to shed some light on the most successful strategies to overcome MDR.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is an early event in the pathogenesis of neurologic disorders and aging. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) regulates mitochondrial function in response to the cellular environment through the reversible deacetylation of proteins involved in metabolism and reactive oxygen species detoxification. As the primary mitochondrial deacetylase, germline, or peripheral tissue-specific deletion of SIRT3 produces mitochondrial hyperacetylation and the accelerated development of age-related diseases. Given the unique metabolic demands of neurons, the role of SIRT3 in the brain is only beginning to emerge. Using mass spectrometry-based acetylomics, high-resolution respirometry, video-EEG, and cognition testing, we report targeted deletion of SIRT3 from select neurons in the cortex and hippocampus produces altered neuronal excitability and metabolic dysfunction in female mice. Targeted deletion of SIRT3 from neuronal helix-loop-helix 1 (NEX)-expressing neurons resulted in mitochondrial hyperacetylation, female-specific superoxide dismutase-2 (SOD2) modification, increased steady-state superoxide levels, metabolic reprogramming, altered neuronal excitability, and working spatial memory deficits. Inducible neuronal deletion of SIRT3 likewise produced female-specific deficits in spatial working memory. Together, the data demonstrate that deletion of SIRT3 from forebrain neurons selectively predisposes female mice to deficits in mitochondrial and cognitive function.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Mitochondrial SIRT3 is an enzyme shown to regulate energy metabolism and antioxidant function, by direct deacetylation of proteins. In this study, we show that neuronal SIRT3 deficiency renders female mice selectively vulnerable to impairment in redox and metabolic function, spatial memory, and neuronal excitability. The observed sex-specific effects on cognition and neuronal excitability in female SIRT3-deficient mice suggest that mitochondrial dysfunction may be one factor underlying comorbid neuronal diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy. Furthermore, the data suggest that SIRT3 dysfunction may predispose females to age-related metabolic and cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein 2 (HINT2) is a dimeric protein that belongs to the histidine triad protein superfamily, predominantly expressed in the liver, pancreas, and adrenal gland, and localised to the mitochondrion. HINT2 binds nucleotides and catalyses the hydrolysis of nucleotidyl substrates. Moreover, HINT2 has been identified as a key regulator of multiple biological processes, including mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, mitochondrial protein acetylation, and steroidogenesis. Genetic manipulation has provided new insights into the physiological roles of HINT2 in several processes, such as inhibition of cancer progression, regulation of hepatic lipid metabolism, and protective effects on the cardiovascular system. The current review outlines the background and functions of HINT2. In addition, it summarises research progress on the correlation between HINT2 and human malignancies, hepatic metabolic diseases, and cardiovascular diseases, with an attempt to provide new research directions emerging in this field and to unveil the therapeutic value of HINT2 as a target in the combat of human diseases.

Abstract
Sirtiun 5 (SIRT5) is a NAD+-dependent protein lysine deacylase. It is emerging as a promising target for the development of drugs to treat cancer and metabolism-related diseases. In this study, we screened 5000 compounds and identified a hit compound 14 bearing a pyrazolone functional group as a novel SIRT5-selective inhibitor. Structure-based optimization of 14 resulted in compound 47 with an IC50 value of 0.21 ± 0.02 μM and a 100-fold improved potency. Compound 47 showed substantial selectivity for SIRT5 over SIRT1-3 and SIRT6. Biochemical studies suggest that 47 does not occupy the NAD + -binding pocket and acts as a substrate-competitive inhibitor. The identified potent and selective SIRT5 inhibitors allow further studies as research tools and therapeutic agents.

Abstract
The gradual ageing of the world population has been accompanied by a dramatic increase in the prevalence of obesity and metabolic diseases, especially type 2 diabetes. The adipose tissue dysfunction associated with ageing and obesity shares many common physiological features, including increased oxidative stress and inflammation. Understanding the mechanisms responsible for adipose tissue dysfunction in obesity may help elucidate the processes that contribute to the metabolic disturbances that occur with ageing. This, in turn, may help identify therapeutic targets for the treatment of obesity and age-related metabolic disorders. Because oxidative stress plays a critical role in these pathological processes, antioxidant dietary interventions could be of therapeutic value for the prevention and/or treatment of age-related diseases and obesity and their complications. In this chapter, we review the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which obesity predisposes individuals to accelerated ageing. Additionally, we critically review the potential of antioxidant dietary interventions to counteract obesity and ageing.

Abstract
Mitochondrial sirtuins have diverse role specifically in aging, metabolism and cancer. In cancer, these sirtuins play dichotomous role as tumor suppressor and promoter. Previous studies have reported the involvement of sirtuins in different cancers. However, till now no study has been published with respect to mitochondrial sirtuins and glioma risks. Present study was purposed to figure out the expression level of mitochondrial sirtuins (SIRT3, SIRT4, SIRT5) and related genes (GDH, OGG1-2α, SOD1, SOD2, HIF1α and PARP1) in 153 glioma tissue samples and 200 brain tissue samples from epilepsy patients (taken as controls). To understand the role of selected situins in gliomagenesis, DNA damage was measured using the comet assay and oncometabolic role (oxidative stress level, ATP level and NAD level) was measured using the ELISA and quantitative PCR. Results analysis showed significant down-regulation of SIRT4 (p = 0.0337), SIRT5 (p<0.0001), GDH (p = 0.0305), OGG1-2α (p = 0.0001), SOD1 (p<0.0001) and SOD2 (p<0.0001) in glioma patients compared to controls. In case of SIRT3 (p = 0.0322), HIF1α (p = 0.0385) and PARP1 (p = 0.0203), significant up-regulation was observed. ROC curve analysis and cox regression analysis showed the good diagnostic and prognostic value of mitochondrial sirtuins in glioma patients. Oncometabolic rate assessment analysis showed significant increased ATP level (p<0.0001), NAD+ level [(NMNAT1 (p<0.0001), NMNAT3 (p<0.0001) and NAMPT (p<0.04)] and glutathione level (p<0.0001) in glioma patients compared to controls. Significant increased level of damage ((p<0.04) and decrease level of antioxidant enzymes include superoxide dismutase (SOD, p<0.0001), catalase (CAT, p<0.0001) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx, p<0.0001) was observed in patients compared to controls. Present study data suggest that variation in expression pattern of mitochondrial sirtuins and increased metabolic rate may have diagnostic and prognostic significance in glioma patients.

Abstract
The incidence of low back pain caused by lumbar disc degeneration is high, and it can lead to loss of work ability and impose heavy social and economic burdens. The pathogenesis of low back pain is unclear, and there are no effective treatments. With age, the deposition of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in intervertebral disc (IVD) gradually increases and is accelerated by diabetes and a high-AGEs diet, leading to destruction of the annulus fibrosus (AF), nucleus pulposus (NP), and cartilage endplate (CEP) and finally intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Reducing the accumulation of AGEs in IVD and blocking the transmission of downstream signals caused by AGEs have a significant effect on alleviating IDD. In this review, we summarize the mechanism by which AGEs induce IDD and potential treatment strategies.

Abstract
This study was designed to determine the effects and underlying mechanism of honokiol (HNK) on traumatic brain injury (TBI). A rat TBI model was constructed using the modified Feeney free-fall percussion method and treatment with HNK via intraperitoneal injection. The brain tissues of the rats in each group were assessed using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay to detect the level of neuronal apoptosis. Western blots were used to detect the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins (Bcl-2 and Bax), and ELISAs were used to measure the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-18 and IL-1β) and the activity of caspase-1. In addition, the mitochondrial membrane potential, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) were also measured. Western blots and qRT-PCRs were used to determine the relative expression levels of the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt)-related proteins and mRNAs. Based on the experimental results, treatment with HNK was associated with a decrease in the number of TUNEL-positive cells, downregulated Bax expression levels, elevated Bcl-2 expression levels, and inhibition of neuronal apoptosis in the brain tissue of TBI rats. HNK also suppressed neuroinflammation by decreasing IL-1β and IL-18 levels and caspase-1 activity. Additionally, HNK lowered the mitochondrial membrane potential and ROS levels, increased ATP levels, and improved mitochondrial dysfunction in neural cells. Furthermore, in the investigation of the mechanism of HNK on TBI, we observed that HNK could activate UPRmt by upregulating the mRNA and protein expression levels of HSPA9, CLPP, and HSP60 in the brain tissues of TBI rats. Collectively, HNK reduced mitochondrial dysfunction, inhibited the apoptosis of nerve cells, and attenuated inflammation in the brains of TBI rats. The protective effect of HNK may be achieved through the activation of UPRmt.

Nicotinamide Mononucleotide Supplementation Improves Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Rescues Cellular Senescence by NAD +/Sirt3 Pathway in Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232314739. [PMID: 36499074 PMCID: PMC9738479 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232314739] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
In vitro expansion-mediated replicative senescence has severely limited the clinical applications of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Accumulating studies manifested that nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) depletion is closely related to stem cell senescence and mitochondrial metabolism disorder. Promoting NAD+ level is considered as an effective way to delay aging. Previously, we have confirmed that nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), a precursor of NAD+, can alleviate NAD+ deficiency-induced MSC senescence. However, whether NMN can attenuate MSC senescence and its underlying mechanisms are still incompletely clear. The present study herein showed that late passage (LP) MSCs displayed lower NAD+ content, reduced Sirt3 expression and mitochondrial dysfunction. NMN supplementation leads to significant increase in intracellular NAD+ level, NAD+/ NADH ratio, Sirt3 expression, as well as ameliorated mitochondrial function and rescued senescent MSCs. Additionally, Sirt3 over-expression relieved mitochondrial dysfunction, and retrieved senescence-associated phenotypic features in LP MSCs. Conversely, inhibition of Sirt3 activity via a selective Sirt3 inhibitor 3-TYP in early passage (EP) MSCs resulted in aggravated cellular senescence and abnormal mitochondrial function. Furthermore, NMN administration also improves 3-TYP-induced disordered mitochondrial function and cellular senescence in EP MSCs. Collectively, NMN replenishment alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction and rescues MSC senescence through mediating NAD+/Sirt3 pathway, possibly providing a novel mechanism for MSC senescence and a promising strategy for anti-aging pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Sirtuins are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent lysine deacylases and deacetylases that participate in a variety of cellular processes, including transcriptional activity, energy metabolism, DNA damage response, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, and oxidative stress. As a result, sirtuins are linked to multiple pathophysiological processes, such as cardiovascular diseases, metabolic diseases, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, and respiratory diseases. Asthma is the most common respiratory disease, which is characterized by airway inflammation and airway remodeling. Accumulating evidence has indicated that sirtuins are involved in the pathogenesis of asthma. Furthermore, some studies have suggested that sirtuin modulators are potential agents for the treatment of asthma via alteration of the expression or activity of sirtuins. In this review, we illustrate the role of sirtuins in asthma, discuss related molecular mechanisms, and evaluate the sirtuins-targeted therapy for asthma.

SIRT5 alleviates hepatic ischemia and reperfusion injury by diminishing oxidative stress and inflammation via elevating SOD1 and IDH2 expression. Exp Cell Res 2022; 419:113319.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, a common and unavoidable pathophysiological process during liver transplantation or resection operation, may impede postoperative liver function recovery, and its mechanism and targeted therapy remain largely unknown. SIRT5 is a well-known deacetylase and participates in the regulation of many physiological and pathological processes, including I/R. The role of SIRT5 in I/R is controversial or tissue-specific, restricting I/R progression in the heart while deteriorating injury in the kidney and brain, while its effect on hepatic I/R remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the function of SIRT5 in hepatic I/R using AAV8 and lentivirus to overexpress SIRT5 in vivo and in vitro. The data showed that SIRT5 overexpression alleviated liver I/R injury in mice and hypoxia/reoxygenation treated AML-12 cells. Moreover, gain- and loss-of-function of SIRT5, SOD1 and IDH2 experiments in AML-12 were performed. Our results demonstrated that SOD1 and IDH2 knockdown abolished the effect of SIRT5 on restraining oxidative stress and inflammation. Therefore, our work revealed that SIRT5 may alleviates hepatic I/R injury by diminishing oxidative stress and inflammation via up-regulating the SOD1 and IDH2 expression, which enriches the theory and therapeutic strategies of hepatic I/R injury.

Abstract
Germ cell quality is a key prerequisite for successful fertilization and early embryo development. The quality is determined by the fine regulation of transcriptomic and proteomic profiles, which are prone to alteration by assisted reproduction technology (ART)-introduced in vitro methods. Gaining evidence shows the ART can influence preset epigenetic modifications within cultured oocytes or early embryos and affect their developmental competency. The aim of this review is to describe ART-determined epigenetic changes related to the oogenesis, early embryogenesis, and further in utero development. We confront the latest epigenetic, related epitranscriptomic, and translational regulation findings with the processes of meiotic maturation, fertilization, and early embryogenesis that impact the developmental competency and embryo quality. Post-ART embryo transfer, in utero implantation, and development (placentation, fetal development) are influenced by environmental and lifestyle factors. The review is emphasizing their epigenetic and ART contribution to fetal development. An epigenetic parallel among mouse, porcine, and bovine animal models and human ART is drawn to illustrate possible future mechanisms of infertility management as well as increase the awareness of the underlying mechanisms governing oocyte and embryo developmental complexity under ART conditions.

Development of hetero-triaryls as a new chemotype for subtype-selective and potent Sirt5 inhibition. Eur J Med Chem 2022; 240:114594.

Abstract
In contrast to other sirtuins (NAD+-dependent class III lysine deacylases), inhibition of Sirt5 is poorly investigated, yet. Our present work is based on the recently identified Sirt5 inhibitor balsalazide, an approved drug with negligible bioavailability after oral administration. After gaining first insights into its structure-activity relationship in previous work, we were able to now develop heteroaryl-triaryls as a novel chemotype of drug-like, potent and subtype-selective Sirt5 inhibitors. The unfavourable azo group of the lead structure was modified in a systematic and comprehensive manner, leading us to a few open-chained and, most importantly, five-membered heteroaromatic substitutes (isoxazole CG_209, triazole CG_220, pyrazole CG_232) with very encouraging in vitro activities (IC50 on Sirt5 in the low micromolar range, <10 μM). These advanced inhibitors were free of cytotoxicity and showed favourable pharmacokinetic properties, as confirmed by permeability into mitochondria using live cell imaging experiments. Furthermore, results from calculations of the relative free binding affinities of the analogues compared to balsalazide as reference compound agreed well with the trends for inhibitory activities obtained in the in vitro experiments. Therefore, this method can be used to predict the affinity of closely related future potential Sirt5 inhibitors. Encouraged by our findings, we employed chemoproteomic selectivity profiling to confirm Sirt5 as main target of balsalazide and one of its improved analogues. An immobilised balsalazide-analogue specifically pulled down Sirt5 from whole cell lysates and competition experiments identified glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase (GCDH) and nucleotide diphosphate kinase (NME4) as potential off-targets, once again confirming the selectivity of the novel balsalazide-derived Sirt5 inhibitors. In summary, a combination of targeted chemical synthesis, biological work, and computational studies led to a new generation of tailored Sirt5 inhibitors, which represent valuable chemical tools for the investigation of the physiological role of Sirt5, but could also serve as advanced lead structures for drug candidates for systemic use.

Abstract
Reprogramming of cellular energy metabolism is considered an emerging feature of cancer. Mitochondrial metabolism plays a crucial role in cancer cell proliferation, survival, and metastasis. As a major mitochondrial NAD+-dependent deacetylase, sirtuin3 (SIRT3) deacetylates and regulates the enzymes involved in regulating mitochondrial energy metabolism, including fatty acid oxidation, the Krebs cycle, and the respiratory chain to maintain metabolic homeostasis. In this article, we review the multiple roles of SIRT3 in various cancers, and systematically summarize the recent advances in the discovery of its activators and inhibitors. The roles of SIRT3 vary in different cancers and have cell- and tumor-type specificity. SIRT3 plays a unique function by mediating interactions between mitochondria and intracellular signaling. The critical functions of SIRT3 have renewed interest in the development of small molecule modulators that regulate its activity. Delineation of the underlying mechanism of SIRT3 as a critical regulator of cell metabolism and further characterization of the mitochondrial substrates of SIRT3 will deepen our understanding of the role of SIRT3 in tumorigenesis and progression and may provide novel therapeutic strategies for cancer targeting SIRT3.

Abstract
Efforts in precision medicine to combat aberrant epigenome have led to the development of epigenetic targeting drugs. We have previously reported the capability of the BZD9L1 epigenetic modulator to impede colorectal tumour growth in vitro and in vivo through sirtuin (SIRT) inhibition. Although most benzimidazole derivatives are commonly less toxic, their effects on SIRTs and cytochrome P450 (CYP) regulations have not been explored alongside toxicity assessments. SIRTs are histone deacetylases that are crucial in maintaining metabolic homeostasis, whereas CYP is essential in drug metabolism. This study aims to determine the toxicology profile of BZD9L1 through oral acute and repeated dose toxicity evaluations, along with molecular analyses of SIRT, CYP and relevant toxicity markers through western blot and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). BZD9L1 demonstrated no sign of acute toxicity at the limit dose (2000 mg/kg). The 28-day toxicity study highlighted the tolerability of repeated dose administration without adverse effects. BZD9L1 showed a sex-divergent regulation of hepatic SIRT1-7, CYP2A5 and CYP2D proteins. Furthermore, BZD9L1 did not induce the expression of organ injury proteins or alter the gene expression of cellular function indicators in mouse liver and kidneys, hence demonstrating, at least in part, the safety of BZD9L1 in short-term evaluations. The present study cautions for personalised strategies when employing benzimidazole-derived epigenetic therapeutics.

Sirtuins (SIRTs) are a family of class III histone deacetylases (HDACs) consisting of seven members, widely expressed in mammals. SIRTs mainly participate in metabolic homeostasis, DNA damage repair, cell survival, and differentiation, as well as other cancer-related biological processes. Growing evidence shows that SIRTs have pivotal roles in chronic degenerative diseases, including colorectal cancer (CRC), the third most frequent malignant disease worldwide. Metabolic alterations are gaining attention in the context of CRC development and progression, with mitochondrion representing a crucial point of complex and intricate molecular mechanisms. Mitochondrial SIRTs, SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT4 and SIRT5, control mitochondrial homeostasis and dynamics. Here, we provide a comprehensive review on the latest advances on the role of mitochondrial SIRTs in the initiation, promotion and progression of CRC. A deeper understanding of the pathways by which mitochondrial SIRTs control CRC metabolism may provide new molecular targets for future innovative strategies for CRC prevention and therapy.

Abstract
Acetylation is one of the most important methods of modification that lead to a change in the function of proteins. In humans, metabolic enzymes commonly undergo acetylation, which regulates the activities of metabolic enzymes and metabolic pathways. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is a prominent deacetylase that participates in mitochondrial metabolism, redox balance, and mitochondrial dynamics by regulating mitochondrial protein acetylation, thereby protecting mitochondria from damage. Normal mitochondrial function is essential for maintaining the metabolism and function of the heart. Therefore, mitochondrial dysfunction caused by SIRT3 consumption and defects leads to the development of a variety of cardiovascular diseases. A comprehensive understanding of the role of SIRT3 in cardiovascular disease is critical for developing new therapeutic strategies. Herein, we summarize the function of SIRT3 in mitochondria, the complex mechanisms mediating cardiovascular diseases, and the potential value of SIRT3 small-molecule agonists in future clinical treatments.

Abstract
Purpose: The present study was designed to understand the role of expression variations of mitochondrial imported sirtuins in brain tumorigenesis. The expression levels of mitochondrial imported sirtuins were further analyzed for biomarker potential. Methods: Samples from 200 brain tumors and 200 healthy control tissues were used for expression analysis using qPCR and for DNA damage using LORD-Q analysis. Results: Significant deregulation of SIRT3 (p = 0.002), SIRT4 (p = 0.03) and SIRT5 (p = 0.006) was observed in brain tumors versus controls. Co-expression analysis showed a significant correlation between the mitochondrial imported sirtuins versus apoptotic genes. LORD-Q analysis showed a significantly increased frequency of lesions/10 kb of mitochondrial imported sirtuins (p < 0.0001) in brain tumor tissue versus controls. Conclusion: The present study showed a correlation between variations of mitochondrial imported sirtuins and increased brain tumor risk.

Overexpression of NMNAT3 improves mitochondrial function and enhances anti-oxidative stress of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells via the NAD+-Sirt3 pathway. Biosci Rep 2022; 42:230593.

Abstract
Oxidative stress damage is a common problem in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) transplantation. Under stress conditions, the mitochondrial function of BMSCs is disrupted, which accelerates senescence and apoptosis of BMSCs, ultimately leading to poor efficacy. Therefore, improving mitochondrial function and enhancing the anti-oxidative stress capacity of BMSCs may be an effective way of improving the survival rate and curative effect of BMSCs. In this study, we have confirmed that overexpression of nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyl transferase 3 (NMNAT3) improves mitochondrial function and resistance to stress-induced apoptosis in BMSCs. We further revealed the mechanism of NMNAT3-mediated resistance to stress-induced apoptosis in BMSCs. We increased the level of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) by overexpressing NMNAT3 in BMSCs and found that it could significantly increase the activity of silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 3 (Sirt3) and significantly decrease the acetylation levels of Sirt3-dependent deacetylation-related proteins isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (Idh2) and Forkhead-box protein O3a (FOXO3a). These findings show that NMNAT3 may increase the activity of Sirt3 by increasing NAD+ levels. Our results confirm that the NMNAT3-NAD+-Sirt3 axis is a potential mechanism for improving mitochondrial function and enhancing anti-oxidative stress of BMSCs. In this study, we take advantage of the role of NMNAT3 in inhibiting stress-induced apoptosis of BMSCs and provide new methods and ideas for breaking through the bottleneck of transplantation efficacy of BMSCs in the clinic.

Abstract
Human sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) plays pivotal roles in metabolic pathways and other biological processes, and is involved in several human diseases including cancer. Development of new potent and selective SIRT5 inhibitors is currently desirable to provide potential therapeutics for related diseases. Herein, we report a series of new 3-thioureidopropanoic acid derivatives, which were designed to mimic the binding features of SIRT5 glutaryl-lysine substrates. Structure-activity relationship studies revealed several compounds with low micromolar inhibitory activities to SIRT5. Computational and biochemical studies indicated that these compounds exhibited competitive SIRT5 inhibition with respect to the glutaryl-lysine substrate rather than nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide cofactor. Moreover, they showed high selectivity for SIRT5 over SIRT1-3 and 6 and could stabilize SIRT5 proteins as revealed by thermal shift analyses. This work provides an effective substrate-mimicking strategy for future inhibitor design, and offers new inhibitors to investigate their therapeutic potentials in SIRT5-associated disease models.

Abstract
Ischemic preconditioning induced by brief periods of coronary occlusion and reperfusion protects the heart from a subsequent prolonged ischemic insult. In this study we investigated whether a short-term nonischemic stimulation of hypertrophy renders the heart resistant to subsequent ischemic injury. Male mice were subjected to transient transverse aortic constriction (TAC) for 3 days followed aortic debanding on D4 (T3D4), as well as ligation of the left coronary artery to induce myocardial infarction (MI). The TAC preconditioning mice showed markedly improved contractile function and significantly reduced myocardial fibrotic area and apoptosis following MI. We revealed that TAC preconditioning significantly reduced MI-induced oxidative stress, evidenced by increased NADPH/NADP ratio and GSH/GSSG ratio, as well as decreased mitochondrial ROS production. Furthermore, TAC preconditioning significantly increased the expression and activity of SIRT3 protein following MI. Cardiac-specific overexpression of SIRT3 gene through in vivo AAV-SIRT3 transfection partially mimicked the protective effects of TAC preconditioning, whereas genetic ablation of SIRT3 in mice blocked the protective effects of TAC preconditioning. Moreover, expression of an IDH2 mutant mimicking deacetylation (IDH2 K413R) in cardiomyocytes promoted myocardial IDH2 activation, quenched mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), and alleviated post-MI injury, whereas expression of an acetylation mimic (IDH2 K413Q) in cardiomyocytes inactivated IDH2, exacerbated mitochondrial ROS overload, and aggravated post-MI injury. In conclusion, this study identifies TAC preconditioning as a novel strategy for induction of an endogenous self-defensive and cardioprotective mechanism against cardiac injury. Therapeutic strategies targeting IDH2 are promising treatment approaches for cardiac ischemic injury.

Abstract
Antioxidants are involved in the process of cellular damage prevention, which is considered as an avenue for cancer development. Free radicals are produced in the body upon exposure to stress, cigarette smoke, alcohol, toxins found in personal care products, pesticides in foods, radiation from the sun, viruses, germs or fungi etc. CCND1/CyclinD1 protein was found to be overexpressed in Oral squamous cell carcinoma. One hundred patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma were recruited along with hundred controls for this study from MNJ institute of Oncology with the approval of Ethics Committee, 5 ml blood samples were collected from each patient and centrifuged to collect serum for various assays. The antioxidant enzymes like catalase, SOD, GPX and GST were estimated using enzymatic assays. Results were expressed as unit of activity for mg of protein. Insilco analysis is performed using STRING v 11 Protein interaction tool. The patients with oral cancer had significantly reduced activities of SOD, GST and GPX (1.49 ± 0.49, 3.97 ± 0.86 and 10.7 ± 0.73 respectively) compared to healthy controls (4.37 ± 1.43, 6.10 ± 1.12 and 13.8 ± 1.25 respectively) (p < 0.005). However no significant difference was observed with regard to catalase activity (2.71 ± 6.51 and 4.03 ± 1.48) (p = 0.28). The proteins interaction PPI enrichment p-value was found to be 3.22e-10 predicted significantly more interactions. Our research findings shown that there was a decline in activity of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione s transferase in addition, personal habits like smoking play a major role in the development and progression of oral carcinogenesis and based on Insilco analysis results CCND1/Cyclin D1 could be the potential therapeutic target in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Abstract
Maintaining metabolic homeostasis is essential for cellular and organismal health throughout life. Of the multiple signaling pathways that regulate metabolism, such as PI3K/AKT, mTOR, AMPK, and sirtuins, mammalian sirtuins also play unique roles in aging. By understanding how sirtuins regulate metabolic processes, we can start to understand how they slow down or accelerate biological aging. Here, we review the biology of SIRT3, SIRT4, and SIRT5, known as the mitochondrial sirtuins due to their localization in the mitochondrial matrix. First, we will focus on canonical pathways that regulate metabolism more broadly and how these are integrated with aging regulation. Then, we will summarize the current knowledge about functional differences between SIRT3, SIRT4, and SIRT5 in metabolic control and integration in signaling networks. Finally, we will discuss how mitochondrial sirtuins regulate processes associated with aging and oxidative stress, calorie restriction and disease.

Abstract
Mitochondrial sirtuins (SIRT3, SIRT4, SIRT5) are post-translational modifiers that regulate energy production, body homeostasis and mitochondrial activities via different substrates in response to environmental stressors. The present study aimed at assessing the expression of SIRT3, SIRT4, and SIRT5 in the semen of infertile men. Expression analysis was performed using q-RT PCR. All mitochondrial sirtuin genes were significantly down-regulated in the semen of infertile men compared to fertile men. Mitochondrial sirtuin genes expression levels were correlated with mitochondrial HSP90 expression. HSP90 expression was positively correlated with SIRT3, SIRT4 and SIRT5 expression in the semen of fertile men, while a negative correlation was observed between HSP90 in the semen of infertile men and mitochondrial sirtuin genes in the semen of fertile men. These data suggest that dysregulation of mitochondrial sirtuin genes causes mitochondrial dysfunction due to stress, which appears to be associated with human male infertility by compromising functional and structural sperm integrity.

Abstract
The mammalian sirtuins are a group of posttranslational modification enzymes that remove acyl modifications from lysine residues in an NAD+-dependent manner. Although initially proposed as histone deacetylases (HDACs), they are now known to target other cellular enzymes and proteins as well. Sirtuin-catalyzed simple amide hydrolysis has profound biological consequences including suppression of gene expression, promotion of DNA damage repair, and regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism. Human sirtuins have been intensively pursued by both academia and industry as potential therapeutic targets for the treatment of diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration. To gain a better understanding of their roles in various cellular events, innovative chemical probes are highly sought after. This current study focuses on the development of activity-based chemical probes (ABPs) for the profiling of sirtuin activity in biological samples. Cyclooctyne-containing and azido-containing probes were synthesized to enable the subsequent copper-free "click" conjugation to either a fluorophore or biotin. The two groups of structurally related ABPs demonstrated different labeling efficiency and selectivity: the cyclooctyne-containing probes failed to label recombinant sirtuins to any appreciable level, while the azido-containing ABPs showed good isoform selectivity. The azido-containing ABPs were further analyzed for their ability to label an individual sirtuin isoform in protein mixtures and cell lysates. These biocompatible ABPs allow the study of dynamic cellular protein activity change to become possible.

Abstract
Cutaneous melanoma remains the most lethal skin cancer, and ranks third among all malignancies in terms of years of life lost. Despite the advent of immune checkpoint and targeted therapies, only roughly half of patients with advanced melanoma achieve a durable remission. Sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) is a member of the sirtuin family of protein deacylases that regulates metabolism and other biological processes. Germline Sirt5 deficiency is associated with mild phenotypes in mice. Here we showed that SIRT5 was required for proliferation and survival across all cutaneous melanoma genotypes tested, as well as uveal melanoma, a genetically distinct melanoma subtype that arises in the eye and is incurable once metastatic. Likewise, SIRT5 was required for efficient tumor formation by melanoma xenografts and in an autochthonous mouse Braf Pten-driven melanoma model. Via metabolite and transcriptomic analyses, we found that SIRT5 was required to maintain histone acetylation and methylation levels in melanoma cells, thereby promoting proper gene expression. SIRT5-dependent genes notably included MITF, a key lineage-specific survival oncogene in melanoma, and the c-MYC proto-oncogene. SIRT5 may represent a druggable genotype-independent addiction in melanoma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sirtuins, NAD-dependent protein deacetylases, require NAD+ for enzymatic activity. Recent research has indicated that sirtuins have a key role in the regulation of gene expression, the cell cycle, apoptosis, neurodegeneration and several age-related diseases. In mammals, there are seven sirtuin isoforms (SIRT-1-7) that catalyze specific lysine substrate deacetylation. AREAS COVERED This review explains the current information on the structure, function and importance of sirtuin modulators. It also explores the possible therapeutic applications of sirtuin modulators and related small molecules in the context of various diseases. EXPERT OPINION Sirtuin's modulators open a new area of research for targeting pathological conditions. Sirtuin modulators, through their targeted function, may provide a possible tool for the amelioration of various diseases. However, the search of activators/inhibitors for sirtuins needs further research. The structural elucidation of sirtuins will create an understanding for the development of isoform-specific selective modulators. This could be a useful tool to determine the functions of individual sirtuins as potential therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are widely used nanomaterials in both commercial and clinical biomedical applications, but the molecular mechanisms underlying their activity remain elusive. In this study we profiled proteomics and redox proteomics changes induced by AgNPs in two lung cancer cell lines: AgNPs-sensitive Calu-1 and AgNPs-resistant NCI-H358. We show that AgNPs induce changes in protein abundance and reversible oxidation in a time and cell-line-dependent manner impacting critical cellular processes such as protein translation and modification, lipid metabolism, bioenergetics, and mitochondrial dynamics. Supporting confocal microscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) data further emphasize mitochondria as a target of AgNPs toxicity differentially impacting mitochondrial networks and morphology in Calu-1 and NCI-H358 lung cells. Proteomics data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD021493. AgNP-sensitive cells experience broader changes in protein abundance. Redox proteomics reveals increased reversible oxidation in AgNP-sensitive cells. AgNPs alter protein translation, lipid metabolism, and bioenergetics. Mitochondria is identified as key target underlying AgNP toxicity.

Abstract
SIRT1 is the most extensively studied human sirtuin with a broad spectrum of endogenous targets. It has been implicated in the regulation of a myriad of cellular events, such as gene transcription, mitochondria biogenesis, insulin secretion as well as glucose and lipid metabolism. From a mechanistic perspective, nicotinamide (NAM), a byproduct of a sirtuin-catalyzed reaction, reverses a reaction intermediate to regenerate NAD+ through "base exchange", leading to the inhibition of the forward deacetylation. NAM has been suggested as a universal sirtuin negative regulator. Sirtuins have evolved different strategies in response to NAM regulation. Here, we report the detailed kinetic analysis of SIRT1-catalyzed reactions using endogenous substrate-based synthetic peptides. A novel substrate-dependent sensitivity of SIRT1 to NAM inhibition was observed. Additionally, SIRT1 demonstrated pH-dependent deacetylation with normal solvent isotope effects (SIEs), consistent with proton transfer in the rate-limiting step. Base exchange, in contrast, was insensitive to pH changes with no apparent SIEs, indicative of lack of proton transfer in the rate-limiting step. Consequently, NAM inhibition was attenuated at a high pH in proteated buffers. Our study provides new evidence for "activation by de-repression" as an effective sirtuin activation strategy.

SIRT3-mediated deacetylation of NLRC4 promotes inflammasome activation. Theranostics 2021; 11:3981-3995.

Abstract
Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) infection of macrophage induces NLRC4 inflammasome-mediated production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β. Post-translational modifications on NLRC4 are critical for its activation. Sirtuin3 (SIRT3) is the most thoroughly studied mitochondrial nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) -dependent deacetylase. We wondered whether SIRT3 mediated-deacetylation could take part in NLRC4 inflammasome activation. Methods: We initially tested IL-1β production and pyroptosis after cytosolic transfection of flagellin or S. typhimurium infection in wild type and SIRT3-deficient primary peritoneal macrophages via immunoblotting and ELISA assay. These results were confirmed in SIRT3-deficient immortalized bone marrow derived macrophages (iBMDMs) which were generated by CRISPR-Cas9 technology. In addition, in vivo experiments were conducted to confirm the role of SIRT3 in S. typhimurium-induced cytokines production. Then NLRC4 assembly was analyzed by immune-fluorescence assay and ASC oligomerization assay. Immunoblotting, ELISA and flow cytometry were performed to clarify the role of SIRT3 in NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasomes activation. To further investigate the mechanism of SIRT3 in NLRC4 activation, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), we did immunoblot, cellular fractionation and in-vitro deacetylation assay. Finally, to clarify the acetylation sites of NLRC4, we performed liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and immunoblotting analysis. Results: SIRT3 deficiency led to significantly impaired NLRC4 inflammasome activation and pyroptosis both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, SIRT3 promotes NLRC4 inflammasome assembly by inducing more ASC speck formation and ASC oligomerization. However, SIRT3 is dispensable for NLRP3 and AIM2 inflammasome activation. Moreover, SIRT3 interacts with and deacetylates NLRC4 to promote its activation. Finally, we proved that deacetylation of NLRC4 at Lys71 or Lys272 could promote its activation. Conclusions: Our study reveals that SIRT3 mediated-deacetylation of NLRC4 is pivotal for NLRC4 activation and the acetylation switch of NLRC4 may aid the clearance of S. typhimurium infection.

Abstract
Mammalian cells use a specialized and complex machinery for the removal of altered proteins or dysfunctional organelles. Such machinery is part of a mechanism called autophagy. Moreover, when autophagy is specifically employed for the removal of dysfunctional mitochondria, it is called mitophagy. Autophagy and mitophagy have important physiological implications and roles associated with cellular differentiation, resistance to stresses such as starvation, metabolic control and adaptation to the changing microenvironment. Unfortunately, transformed cancer cells often exploit autophagy and mitophagy for sustaining their metabolic reprogramming and growth to a point that autophagy and mitophagy are recognized as promising targets for ongoing and future antitumoral therapies. Sirtuins are NAD+ dependent deacylases with a fundamental role in sensing and modulating cellular response to external stresses such as nutrients availability and therefore involved in aging, oxidative stress control, inflammation, differentiation and cancer. It is clear, therefore, that autophagy, mitophagy and sirtuins share many common aspects to a point that, recently, sirtuins have been linked to the control of autophagy and mitophagy. In the context of cancer, such a control is obtained by modulating transcription of autophagy and mitophagy genes, by post translational modification of proteins belonging to the autophagy and mitophagy machinery, by controlling ROS production or major metabolic pathways such as Krebs cycle or glutamine metabolism. The present review details current knowledge on the role of sirtuins, autophagy and mitophagy in cancer to then proceed to discuss how sirtuins can control autophagy and mitophagy in cancer cells. Finally, we discuss sirtuins role in the context of tumor progression and metastasis indicating glutamine metabolism as an example of how a concerted activation and/or inhibition of sirtuins in cancer cells can control autophagy and mitophagy by impinging on the metabolism of this fundamental amino acid.

Identification of the subtype-selective Sirt5 inhibitor balsalazide through systematic SAR analysis and rationalization via theoretical investigations. Eur J Med Chem 2020; 206:112676. [PMID: 32858418 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2020.112676] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2020] [Revised: 07/17/2020] [Accepted: 07/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
We report here an extensive structure-activity relationship study of balsalazide, which was previously identified in a high-throughput screening as an inhibitor of Sirt5. To get a closer understanding why this compound is able to inhibit Sirt5, we initially performed docking experiments comparing the binding mode of a succinylated peptide as the natural substrate and balsalazide with Sirt5 in the presence of NAD+. Based on the evidence gathered here, we designed and synthesized 13 analogues of balsalazide, in which single functional groups were either deleted or slightly altered to investigate which of them are mandatory for high inhibitory activity. Our study confirms that balsalazide with all its given functional groups is an inhibitor of Sirt5 in the low micromolar concentration range and structural modifications presented in this study did not increase potency. While changes on the N-aroyl-β-alanine side chain eliminated potency, the introduction of a truncated salicylic acid part minimally altered potency. Calculations of the associated reaction paths showed that the inhibition potency is very likely dominated by the stability of the inhibitor-enzyme complex and not the type of inhibition (covalent vs. non-covalent). Further in-vitro characterization in a trypsin coupled assay determined that the tested inhibitors showed no competition towards NAD+ or the synthetic substrate analogue ZKsA. In addition, investigations for subtype selectivity revealed that balsalazide is a subtype-selective Sirt5 inhibitor, and our initial SAR and docking studies pave the way for further optimization.
