Abstract
Sirtuins are a class of enzymes that deacylate protein lysine residues using NAD+ as a cosubstrate. Sirtuin deacylase activity has been historically regarded as protective; loss of sirtuin deacylase activity potentially increases susceptibility to aging-related disease development. However, which factors may inhibit sirtuins during aging or disease is largely unknown. Increased oxidant and inflammatory byproduct production damages cellular proteins. Previously, we and others found that sirtuin deacylase activity is inhibited by the nitric oxide (NO)-derived cysteine post-translational modification S-nitrosation. However, the comparative ability of the NO-derived oxidant peroxynitrite (ONOO-) to affect human sirtuin activity had not yet been assessed under uniform conditions. Here, we compare the ability of ONOO- (donated from SIN-1) to post-translationally modify and inhibit SIRT1, SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT5, and SIRT6 deacylase activity. In response to SIN-1 treatment, inhibition of SIRT1, SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT5, and SIRT6 deacylase activity correlated with increased tyrosine nitration. Mass spectrometry identified multiple novel tyrosine nitration sites in SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT5, and SIRT6. As each sirtuin isoform has at least one tyrosine nitration site within the catalytic core, nitration may result in sirtuin inhibition. ONOO- can also react with cysteine residues, resulting in sulfenylation; however, only SIRT1 showed detectable peroxynitrite-mediated cysteine sulfenylation. While SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT5, and SIRT6 showed no detectable sulfenylation, SIRT6 likely undergoes transient sulfenylation, quickly resolving into an intermolecular disulfide bond. These results suggest that the aging-related oxidant peroxynitrite can post-translationally modify and inhibit sirtuins, contributing to susceptibility to aging-related disease.

Abstract
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), a member of the SIRT family, plays essential roles in the regulation of metabolism, inflammation, aging, DNA repair, and cancer development, making it a promising anticancer drug target. Herein, we present our use of proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology to formulate a series of highly potent and selective SIRT6 degraders. One of the degraders, SZU-B6, induced the near-complete degradation of SIRT6 in both SK-HEP-1 and Huh-7 cell lines and more potently inhibited hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell proliferation than the parental inhibitors. In preliminary mechanistic studies, SZU-B6 hampered DNA damage repair, promoting the cellular radiosensitization of cancer cells. Our SIRT6 degrader SZU-B6 displayed promising antitumor activity, particularly when combined with the well-known kinase inhibitor sorafenib or irradiation in an SK-HEP-1 xenograft mouse model. Our results suggest that these PROTACs might constitute a potent therapeutic strategy for HCC.

Abstract
Cellular aging is considered as one of the main factors implicated in female infertility. We evaluated the expression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) markers and additional molecular factors in an in vitro model of cellular aging. We induced genotoxic stress (UVB/UVA ray irradiation) in primary human endometrial cells obtained from female subjects of young reproductive age (<35 years of age). We assessed the expression levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-1α, MMP3, SIRT-1, SIRT-6, TERF-1, and CALR at the mRNA level by RT-qPCR and at the protein level by immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy in primary human endometrial cells upon induction of genotoxic stress and compared them to untreated cells. Statistically significant differences were found for the expression of SIRT-1, SIRT-6, and TERF, which were found to be decreased upon induction of cell senescence through genotoxic stress, while IL-6, IL-8, IL-1α, MMP3, and p16 were found to be increased in senescent cells. We propose that these molecules, in addition to SAS-linked factors, could represent novel markers, and eventually potential therapeutic targets, for the aging-associated dysfunction of the female reproductive system.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Local hyperthermia at 44°C can clear multiple human papillomavirus (HPV)-infected skin lesions (warts) by targeting a single lesion, which is considered as a success of inducing antiviral immunity in the human body. However, approximately 30% of the patients had a lower response to this intervention. To identify novel molecular targets for anti-HPV immunity induction to improve local hyperthermia efficacy, we conducted a lysine succinylome assay in HaCaT cells (subjected to 44°C and 37°C water baths for 30 min). Methods The succinylome analysis was conducted on HaCaT subjected to 44°C and 37°C water bath for 30 min using antibody affinity enrichment together with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The results were validated by western blot (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP). Then, bioinformatic analysis including Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment, motif characterization, secondary structure, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) was performed. Results A total of 119 proteins with 197 succinylated sites were upregulated in 44°C-treated HaCaT cells. GO annotation demonstrated that differential proteins were involved in the immune system process and viral transcription. Succinylation was significantly upregulated in annexin A2. We found that hyperthermia upregulated the succinylated level of global proteins in HaCaT cells by downregulating the desuccinylase sirtuin7 (SIRT7), which can interact with annexin A2. Conclusions Taken together, these data indicated that succinylation of annexin A2 may serve as a new drug target, which could be intervened in combination with local hyperthermia for better treatment of cutaneous warts.

Abstract
Obesity has become a major global health problem and the effect on bone formation has received increasing attention. However, the interaction between obesity and bone metabolism is complex and still not fully understood. Here, we show that caveolin-1 (Cav1), a membrane scaffold protein involved in regulating a variety of cellular processes, plays a key regulatory role as a bridge connecting obesity and bone metabolism. High-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese C57BL/6J mouse displayed a significant increase in Cav1 expression and lower osteogenic activity; In vitro treatment of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells with 1 mM free fatty acids (FFA) significantly promoted Cav1 expression and PINK1/Parkin regulated mitophagy, but inhibited the expression of osteogenic marker genes. Conversely, reduced expression of the Cav1 gene prevented these effects. Both endogenous oxidative stress and Sirt1 pathway were also significantly reduced after Cav1 knockdown in FFA-treated cells. Finally, Cav1-Sirt1 docking and co-immunoprecipitation results showed that Cav1 interacted with Sirt1 and FFA enhanced the interaction. Taken together, these results suggest that obesity impairs bone development and formation through up-regulation of the Cav1 gene, which lead to inhibition of Sirt1/FOXO1 and Sirt1/PGC-1α signaling pathways through interacting with Sirt1 molecule, and an increase of mitophagy level.

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

Abstract
The nucleolus has core functions in ribosome biosynthesis, but also acts as a regulatory hub in a plethora of non-canonical processes, including cellular stress. Upon DNA damage, several DNA repair factors shuttle between the nucleolus and the nucleoplasm. Yet, the molecular mechanisms underlying such spatio-temporal protein dynamics remain to be deciphered. Here, we present a novel imaging platform to investigate nucleolar-nucleoplasmic protein shuttling in living cells. For image acquisition, we used a commercially available automated fluorescence microscope and for image analysis, we developed a KNIME workflow with implementation of machine learning-based tools. We validated the method with different nucleolar proteins, i.e., PARP1, TARG1 and APE1, by monitoring their shuttling dynamics upon oxidative stress. As a paradigm, we analyzed PARP1 shuttling upon H2O2 treatment in combination with a range of pharmacological inhibitors in a novel reporter cell line. These experiments revealed that inhibition of SIRT7 results in a loss of nucleolar PARP1 localization. Finally, we unraveled specific differences in PARP1 shuttling dynamics after co-treatment with H2O2 and different clinical PARP inhibitors. Collectively, this work delineates a highly sensitive and versatile bioimaging platform to investigate swift nucleolar-nucleoplasmic protein shuttling in living cells, which can be employed for pharmacological screening and in-depth mechanistic analyses.

Abstract
Introduction Group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) are enriched in the intestinal mucosa and play important roles in host defense against infection and inflammatory diseases. Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)- dependent deacetylase and has been shown to control intestinal epithelial cell differentiation and survival. However, the role of SIRT6 in ILC3s remains unknown. Methods To investigate the role of SIRT6 in gut ILC3s, we generated SIRT6 conditional knockout mice by crossing Rorccre and Sirt6flox/flox mice. Cell number and cytokine production was examined using flow cytometry. Citrobacter rodentium infection and dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis models were used to determine the role of SIRT6 in gut defense. RT-qPCR, flow cytometry and immunohistochemistry were used to assess the intestinal inflammatory responses. Results Here we show that SIRT6 inhibits IL-22 expression in intestinal ILC3s in a cell-intrinsic manner. Deletion of SIRT6 in ILC3s does not affect the cell numbers of total ILC3s and subsets, but results in increased IL-22 production. Furthermore, ablation of SIRT6 in ILC3s protects mice against Citrobacter rodentium infection and dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis. Our results suggest that SIRT6 may play a role in ILC3 function by regulating gut immune responses against bacterial infection and inflammation. Discussion Our finding provided insight into the relation of epigenetic regulators with IL-22 production and supplied a new perspective for a potential strategy against inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
Sirtuin 5 (SIRT5) is increasingly recognized as a key regulator of cellular metabolism, which is commonly dysregulated in cancer cells, resulting in enhanced proliferation and tumor progression. To investigate the clinicopathologic implications of SIRT5 dysregulation in glioblastoma, we performed comprehensive analyses of transcriptomic data and functional verifications using in vitro and in vivo glioblastoma models. We found that higher SIRT5 expression levels were associated with a favorable prognosis in glioma patients. Knockdown of SIRT5 significantly enhanced glioblastoma cell growth. Our data suggest its potential role in regulating mitochondrial metabolism in gliomas. Furthermore, SIRT5 is also significantly correlated with synaptic remodeling pathways. Our findings indicate a tumor-suppressive role for SIRT5 that extends beyond regulating cancer metabolism, by which it may function through modulating neuroplasticity. Understanding these cellular interactions provides nuanced insights into the multifaceted role of SIRT5 and the broader therapeutic implications of this for the development of novel treatment strategies.

Abstract
Sirtuins are the NAD + -dependent class III lysine deacylases (KDACs). Members of this family have been linked to longevity and a wide array of different diseases, motivating the pursuit of sirtuin modulator compounds. Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is a primarily nuclear KDAC that deacetylates histones to facilitate gene repression. In addition to this canonical post-translational modification (PTM) "eraser" function, SIRT6 can use NAD + instead to "write" mono-ADP-ribosylation (mARylation) on target proteins. This enzymatic function has been primarily associated with SIRT6's role in the DNA damage response. This modification has been challenging to study because it is not clear under what precise cellular contexts it occurs, only a few substrates are known, and potential interference from other ADP-ribosyltransferases in cells, among other reasons. In this work, we used commercially available ADP-ribosylation detection reagents to investigate the mARylation activity of SIRT6 in a reconstituted system. We observed that SIRT6 is activated in its mARylation activity by binding to dsDNA ends. We further identified a surprising target motif within biochemical substrates of SIRT6, polyhistidine (polyHis) repeat tracts, that are present in several previously identified SIRT6 mARylation substrates and binding partners. This work provides important context for SIRT6 mARylation activity, in contrast to its KDAC activity, and proposes that SIRT6 is a histidine mARyltransferase enzyme.

Abstract
Sirtuins are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent protein lysine deacylases regulating metabolism and stress responses; however, characterization of the removed acyl groups and their downstream metabolic fates remains incomplete. Here we employed untargeted comparative metabolomics to reinvestigate mitochondrial sirtuin biochemistry. First, we identified N-glutarylspermidines as metabolites downstream of the mitochondrial sirtuin SIR-2.3 in Caenorhabditis elegans and demonstrated that SIR-2.3 functions as a lysine deglutarylase and that N-glutarylspermidines can be derived from O-glutaryl-ADP-ribose. Subsequent targeted analysis of C. elegans, mouse and human metabolomes revealed a chemically diverse range of N-acylspermidines, and formation of N-succinylspermidines and/or N-glutarylspermidines was observed downstream of mammalian mitochondrial sirtuin SIRT5 in two cell lines, consistent with annotated functions of SIRT5. Finally, N-glutarylspermidines were found to adversely affect C. elegans lifespan and mammalian cell proliferation. Our results indicate that N-acylspermidines are conserved metabolites downstream of mitochondrial sirtuins that facilitate annotation of sirtuin enzymatic activities in vivo and may contribute to sirtuin-dependent phenotypes.

Abstract
The NAD+-dependent lysine deacylase sirtuin 2 (Sirt2) is involved in multiple pathological conditions such as cancer. Targeting Sirt2 has thus received an increased interest for therapeutic purposes. Furthermore, the orthologue from Schistosoma mansoni (SmSirt2) has been considered for the potential treatment of the neglected tropical disease schistosomiasis. We previously identified a 1,2,4-oxadiazole-based scaffold from the screening of the "Kinetobox" library as a dual inhibitor of human Sirt2 (hSirt2) and SmSirt2. Herein, we describe the structure-activity studies on 1,2,4-oxadiazole-based analogues, which are potent inhibitors of human Sirt2 deacetylation. As proposed by docking studies, a substrate-competitive and cofactor-noncompetitive binding mode of inhibition could be determined in vitro via binding assays and kinetic analysis and further confirmed by a crystal structure of an oxadiazole inhibitor in complex with hSirt2. Optimized analogues reduced cell viability and inhibited prostate cancer cell migration, in correlation with Sirt2 deacetylase inhibition both in vitro and in cells.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is one of the main causes of low back pain, which affects the patients' quality of life and health and imposes a significant socioeconomic burden. Despite great efforts made by researchers to understand the pathogenesis of IDD, effective strategies for preventing and treating this disease remain very limited. Sirtuins are a highly conserved family of (NAD+)-dependent deacetylases in mammals that are involved in a variety of metabolic processes in vivo. In recent years, sirtuins have attracted much attention owing to their regulatory roles in IDD on physiological activities such as inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, aging, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial function. At the same time, many studies have explored the therapeutic effects of sirtuins-targeting activators or micro-RNA in IDD. This review summarizes the molecular pathways of sirtuins involved in IDD, and summarizes the therapeutic role of activators or micro-RNA targeting Sirtuins in IDD, as well as the current limitations and challenges, with a view to provide possible solutions for the treatment of IDD.

Abstract
Excitotoxicity, characterized by over-activation of glutamate receptors, is a major contributor to spinal cord injury (SCI) pathophysiology, resulting in neuronal death and loss of locomotor function. In our previous in vitro studies, we showed that excitotoxicity induced by the glutamate analogue kainate (KA) leads to a significant reduction in the number of neurons, providing a model for SCI. Our current objective was to assess the neuroprotective role of resveratrol (RESV), a natural polyphenol, following KA-induced SCI. In vivo excitotoxicity was induced by intraspinal injection of KA immediately followed by RESV administration to Balb/C adult male mice. In neonatal mouse spinal cord preparations, excitotoxicity was transiently induced by bath-applied KA, either with or without RESV. KA administration resulted in a significant deterioration in hindlimb motor coordination and balance during locomotion, which was partially reverted by RESV. Additionally, RESV preserved neurons in both dorsal and ventral regions. Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) immunoreactive signal was increased by RESV, while the selective SIRT1 inhibitor 6-chloro-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1H-carbazole-1-carboxamide (EX-527) attenuated RESV neuroprotective effects. These findings suggest that RESV attenuation of excitotoxic-induced neuronal loss and locomotor deficits is mediated, at least in part, through the activation of SIRT1, potentially involving SIRT2 as well. Indeed, our results highlight the potential use of RESV to enhance neuroprotective strategies for SCI.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) can be described as a global health emergency imploring possible prevention strategies. Although the pathogenesis of CVDs has been extensively studied, the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in CVD development has yet to be investigated. Diabetic cardiomyopathy, ischemic-reperfusion injury, and heart failure are some of the CVDs resulting from mitochondrial dysfunction Recent evidence from the research states that any dysfunction of mitochondria has an impact on metabolic alteration, eventually causes the death of a healthy cell and therefore, progressively directing to the predisposition of disease. Cardiovascular research investigating the targets that both protect and treat mitochondrial damage will help reduce the risk and increase the quality of life of patients suffering from various CVDs. One such target, i.e., nuclear sirtuin SIRT6 is strongly associated with cardiac function. However, the link between mitochondrial dysfunction and SIRT6 concerning cardiovascular pathologies remains poorly understood. Although the Role of SIRT6 in skeletal muscles and cardiomyocytes through mitochondrial regulation has been well understood, its specific role in mitochondrial maintenance in cardiomyocytes is poorly determined. The review aims to explore the domain-specific function of SIRT6 in cardiomyocytes and is an effort to know how SIRT6, mitochondria, and CVDs are related.

Abstract
An important mechanism of gene expression regulation is the epigenetic modification of histones. The cofactors and substrates for these modifications are often intermediary metabolites, and it is becoming increasingly clear that the metabolic and nutritional state of cells can influence these marks. These connections between the balance of metabolites, histone modifications and downstream transcriptional changes comprise a metabolic signaling program that can enable cells to adapt to changes in nutrient availability. Beyond acetylation, there is evidence now that histones can be modified by other acyl groups. In this Cell Science at a Glance article and the accompanying poster, we focus on these histone acylation modifications and provide an overview of the players that govern these acylations and their connections with metabolism.

Abstract
Mitochondria, with their intricate networks of functions and information processing, are pivotal in both health regulation and disease progression. Particularly, mitochondrial dysfunctions are identified in many common pathologies, including cardiovascular diseases, neurodegeneration, metabolic syndrome, and cancer. However, the multifaceted nature and elusive phenotypic threshold of mitochondrial dysfunction complicate our understanding of their contributions to diseases. Nonetheless, these complexities do not prevent mitochondria from being among the most important therapeutic targets. In recent years, strategies targeting mitochondrial dysfunction have continuously emerged and transitioned to clinical trials. Advanced intervention such as using healthy mitochondria to replenish or replace damaged mitochondria, has shown promise in preclinical trials of various diseases. Mitochondrial components, including mtDNA, mitochondria-located microRNA, and associated proteins can be potential therapeutic agents to augment mitochondrial function in immunometabolic diseases and tissue injuries. Here, we review current knowledge of mitochondrial pathophysiology in concrete examples of common diseases. We also summarize current strategies to treat mitochondrial dysfunction from the perspective of dietary supplements and targeted therapies, as well as the clinical translational situation of related pharmacology agents. Finally, this review discusses the innovations and potential applications of mitochondrial transplantation as an advanced and promising treatment.

Abstract
The sirtuin family is a heterogeneous group of proteins that play a critical role in many cellular activities. Several degenerative diseases have recently been linked to aberrant sirtuin expression and activity because of the involvement of sirtuins in maintaining cell longevity and their putative antiaging function. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and progressive pulmonary fibrosis associated with systemic autoimmune disorders are severe diseases characterized by premature and accelerated exhaustion and failure of alveolar type II cells combined with aberrant activation of fibroblast proliferative pathways leading to dramatic destruction of lung architecture. The mechanisms underlying alveolar type II cell exhaustion in these disorders are not fully understood. In this review, we have focused on the role of sirtuins in the pathogenesis of idiopathic and secondary pulmonary fibrosis and their potential as biomarkers in the diagnosis and management of fibrotic interstitial lung diseases.

Abstract
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD), a primary microvascular complication arising from diabetes, may result in end-stage renal disease. Epigenetic regulation of endothelial mesenchymal transition (EndMT) has been recently reported to exert function in metabolic memory and DKD. Here, we investigated the mechanism which Sirt7 modulated EndMT in human glomerular endothelial cells (HGECs) in the occurrence of metabolic memory in DKD. Lower levels of SDC1 and Sirt7 were noted in the glomeruli of both DKD patients and diabetes-induced renal injury rats, as well as in human glomerular endothelial cells (HGECs) with high blood sugar. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) was sustained despite the normalization of glycaemic control. We also found that Sirt7 overexpression associated with glucose normalization promoted the SDC1 expression and reversed EndMT in HGECs. Furthermore, the sh-Sirt7-mediated EndMT could be reversed by SDC1 overexpression. The ChIP assay revealed enrichment of Sirt7 and H3K18ac in the SDC1 promoter region. Furthermore, hypermethylated in cancer 1 (HIC1) was found to be associated with Sirt7. Overexpression of HIC1 with normoglycaemia reversed high glucose-mediated EndMT in HGECs. The knockdown of HIC1-mediated EndMT was reversed by SDC1 upregulation. In addition, the enrichment of HIC1 and Sirt7 was observed in the same promoter region of SDC1. The overexpressed Sirt7 reversed EndMT and improved renal function in insulin-treated diabetic models. This study demonstrated that the hyperglycaemia-mediated interaction between Sirt7 and HIC1 exerts a role in the metabolic memory in DKD by inactivating SDC1 transcription and mediating EndMT despite glucose normalization in HGECs.

Abstract
Both silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 (sirt1) and forkhead box transcription factor 1 (foxO1) are crucial transcription factors involved in glucolipid metabolism and energy regulation. The presnt study aimed to understand their regulatory roles in glucose metabolism. Molecular cloning and sequencing of sirt1 gene of Megalobrama amblycephala (masirt1) was conducted and cellular localization of both the factors were analysed. Their effects and action patterns in the glucose metabolism of Megalobrama amblycephala (M. amblycephala) were investigated through acute and long-term glucose tolerance assays. The results revealed that the full-length masirt1 cDNA sequence was 2350 bp and closely related to Sinocyclocheilus rhinocerous. Sirt1 and foxO1 were found to be mutually dependent and localized in the nucleus. Acute glucose tolerance tests revealed that the expression levels of both factors in the liver of M. amblycephala showed an initial increase followed by a decrease. Plasma glucose levels in M. amblycephala significantly increased at 2 and 12 h (P < 0.05). In a long-term breeding experiment with high-sugar feeding, the expressions of the sirt1 and foxO1 genes in the kidney and intestine of M. amblycephala exhibited synergistic changes. The 51WS groups had significantly higher levels of sirt1 and foxO1 gene expression in the kidney and intestine compared to the 0WS and 17WS groups (P < 0.05). Overall, masirt1 is evolutionarily highly conserved, and the interaction site of sirt1 and foxO1 is located in the nucleus. In long-term hyperglycemic regulation, sirt1 and foxO1 exhibit synergistic regulatory effects in the kidney and intestine of M. amblycephala. This study provides insights into how sirt1 and foxO1 regulate glucose metabolism in M. amblycephala.

Abstract
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a progressive cardiovascular disorder involving multiple pathogenesis. Effective pharmacological therapies are currently unavailable. Sirtuin6 (SIRT6) has been shown to protect against aortic valve calcification in CAVD. The exact regulatory mechanism of SIRT6 in osteoblastic differentiation remains to be determined, although it inhibits osteogenic differentiation of aortic valve interstitial cells. We demonstrated that SIRT6 was markedly downregulated in calcific human aortic valves. Mechanistically, SIRT6 suppressed osteogenic differentiation in human aortic valve interstitial cells (HAVICs), as confirmed by loss- and gain-of-function experiments. SIRT6 directly interacted with Runx2, decreased Runx2 acetylation levels, and facilitated Runx2 nuclear export to inhibit the osteoblastic phenotype transition of HAVICs. In addition, the AKT signaling pathway acted upstream of SIRT6. Together, these findings elucidate that SIRT6-mediated Runx2 downregulation inhibits aortic valve calcification and provide novel insights into therapeutic strategies for CAVD.

Abstract
Aging and cancer seem to be closely associated, such that cancer is generally considered a disease of the elderly in both humans and dogs. Additionally, cancer is a metabolic shift in itself towards aerobic glycolysis. Larger dog breeds with shorter lifespans, and increased glycolytic cellular metabolic rates, die of cancer more often than smaller breeds. The tumor suppressor p53 factor is a key suppressor oncogene, and the p53 pathway arrests cellular proliferation and prevents DNA mutations from accumulating during cellular stress. The p53 pathway is also associated with the control of cellular metabolism to prevent cellular metabolic shifts common to cancerous phenotypes. SIRT1 deacetylates the p53 tumor suppressor protein, downregulating p53 via effects on stability and activity during stress. Here, we used primary fibroblast cells from small and large puppies and old dogs. Using UV radiation to upregulate the p53 system (100 J/m2), control cells and UV-treated cells were used to measure aerobic and glycolytic metabolic rates using a Seahorse XFe96 oxygen flux analyzer. We also quantified p53 expression and SIRT1 concentration in canine primary fibroblasts before and after UV treatment. We demonstrate that, due to a higher p53 nuclear to cytoplasmic ratio in large breed dogs after UV treatment, p53 could have a more regulatory effect on large breed dogs' metabolism compared with smaller breeds. Thus, there may be a link between p53 upregulation and inhibition of glycolysis in large breed dogs during times of cellular stress compared with small breed dogs. However, SIRT1 concentrations decrease with age in domestic dogs of both size classes, suggesting a possible release of inhibition of p53 through the SIRT1 pathway with age. This may lead to increased incidences of cancer, especially due to the more pronounced upregulation of p53 with cellular stress.

Abstract
Advances in modern healthcare in developed countries make it possible to extend the human lifespan, which is why maintaining active longevity is becoming increasingly important. After the sirtuin (SIRT) protein family was discovered, it started to be considered as a significant regulator of the physiological processes associated with aging. SIRT has deacetylase, deacylase, and ADP-ribosyltransferase activity and modifies a variety of protein substrates, including chromatin components and regulatory proteins. This multifactorial regulatory system affects many processes: cellular metabolism, mitochondrial functions, epigenetic regulation, DNA repair and more. As is expected, the activity of sirtuin proteins affects the manifestation of classic signs of aging in the body, such as cellular senescence, metabolic disorders, mitochondrial dysfunction, genomic instability, and the disruption of epigenetic regulation. Changes in the SIRT activity in human cells can also be considered a marker of aging and are involved in the genesis of various age-dependent disorders. Additionally, experimental data obtained in animal models, as well as data from population genomic studies, suggest a SIRT effect on life expectancy. At the same time, the diversity of sirtuin functions and biochemical substrates makes it extremely complicated to identify cause-and-effect relationships and the direct role of SIRT in controlling the functional state of the body. However, the SIRT influence on the epigenetic regulation of gene expression during the aging process and the development of disorders is one of the most important aspects of maintaining the homeostasis of organs and tissues. The presented review centers on the diversity of SIRT in humans and model animals. In addition to a brief description of the main SIRT enzymatic and biological activity, the review discusses its role in the epigenetic regulation of chromatin structure, including the context of the development of genome instability associated with aging. Studies on the functional connection between SIRT and longevity, as well as its effect on pathological processes associated with aging, such as chronic inflammation, fibrosis, and neuroinflammation, have been critically analyzed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is one of the etiologic factors of degenerative spinal diseases, which can lead to a variety of pathological spinal conditions such as disc herniation, spinal stenosis, and scoliosis. IVDD is a leading cause of lower back pain, the prevalence of which increases with age. Recently, Sirtuins/SIRTs and their related activators have received attention for their activity in the treatment of IVDD. In this paper, a comprehensive systematic review of the literature on the role of SIRTs and their activators on IVDD in recent years is presented. The molecular pathways involved in the regulation of IVDD by SIRTs are summarized, and the effects of SIRTs on senescence, inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction in myeloid cells are discussed with a view to suggesting possible solutions for the current treatment of IVDD. PURPOSE This paper focuses on the molecular mechanisms by which SIRTs and their activators act on IVDD. METHODS A literature search was conducted in Pubmed and Web of Science databases over a 13-year period from 2011 to 2024 for the terms "SIRT", "Sirtuin", "IVDD", "IDD", "IVD", "NP", "Intervertebral disc degeneration", "Intervertebral disc" and "Nucleus pulposus". RESULTS According to the results, SIRTs and a large number of activators showed positive effects against IVDD.SIRTs modulate autophagy, myeloid apoptosis, oxidative stress and extracellular matrix degradation. In addition, they attenuate inflammatory factor-induced disc damage and maintain homeostasis during disc degeneration. Several clinical studies have reported the protective effects of some SIRTs activators (e.g., resveratrol, melatonin, honokiol, and 1,4-dihydropyridine) against IVDD. CONCLUSION The fact that SIRTs and their activators play a hundred different roles in IVDD helps to better understand their potential to develop further treatments for IVDD. NOVELTY This review summarizes current information on the mechanisms of action of SIRTs in IVDD and the challenges and limitations of translating their basic research into therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a common neurological trauma that can lead to cognitive impairment. The sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1)/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) pathway has been reported to have neuroprotective effects in rats with craniocerebral injury. We evaluated potential mechanisms underlying electroacupuncture-mediated recovery of cognitive function after mTBI, focusing on the SIRT-1/PGC-1α/mitochondrial pathway. METHODS We included forty 6-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats in this study. Rats were randomly divided into four groups: controlled cortical impactor (CCI, n = 10), sham operation (sham, n = 10), electroacupuncture-treated CCI (CCI+EA, n = 10), and electroacupuncture-treated sham (sham+EA, n = 10) group. Randomization was performed by assigning a random number to each rat and using a random number table. The mTBI rat model was established using a controllable cortical impactor. Electroacupuncture therapy was performed on the back of rats, by inserting acupuncture needles to the specific acupoints and setting appropriate parameters for treatment. We evaluated spatial learning and memory functions with the Morris water maze test. We performed quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), western blotting, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) determination, and mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I (MRCC I) determination on rat hippocampal tissue. We analyzed SIRT-1/PGC-1α expression levels and the results of mitochondrial function assays, and compared differences between groups using bilateral Student's t -tests. RESULTS Compared with the sham group, SIRT-1/PGC-1α expression was downregulated in the hippocampus of CCI group ( P <0.01). Although this expression was upregulated following electroacupuncture, it did not reach the levels observed in the sham group ( P <0.05). Compared with the sham group, MRCC I and ATP levels in the CCI group were significantly reduced, and increased after electroacupuncture ( P <0.01). In the Morris water maze, electroacupuncture reduced the incubation period of rats and increased average speed and number of crossing platforms ( P <0.05). CONCLUSION Electroacupuncture may improve cognitive function in the mTBI rat model by regulating the SIRT-1/PGC-1α/mitochondrial pathway.

Abstract
Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent protein deacylases and key metabolic regulators, coupling the cellular energy state with selective lysine deacylation to regulate many downstream cellular processes. Humans encode seven sirtuin isoforms (Sirt1-7) with diverse subcellular localization and deacylase targets. Sirtuins are considered protective anti-aging proteins since increased sirtuin activity is canonically associated with lifespan extension and decreased activity with developing aging-related diseases. However, sirtuins can also assume detrimental cellular roles where increased activity contributes to pathophysiology. Modulation of sirtuin activity by activators and inhibitors thus holds substantial potential for defining the cellular roles of sirtuins in health and disease and developing therapeutics. Instead of being comprehensive, this review discusses the well-characterized sirtuin activators and inhibitors available to date, particularly those with demonstrated selectivity, potency, and cellular activity. This review also provides recommendations regarding the best-in-class sirtuin activators and inhibitors for practical research as sirtuin modulator discovery and refinement evolve.

Abstract
Over 400 different types of post-translational modifications (PTMs) have been reported and over 200 various types of PTMs have been discovered using mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics. MS-based proteomics has proven to be a powerful method capable of global PTM mapping with the identification of modified proteins/peptides, the localization of PTM sites and PTM quantitation. PTMs play regulatory roles in protein functions, activities and interactions in various heart related diseases, such as ischemia/reperfusion injury, cardiomyopathy and heart failure. The recognition of PTMs that are specific to cardiovascular pathology and the clarification of the mechanisms underlying these PTMs at molecular levels are crucial for discovery of novel biomarkers and application in a clinical setting. With sensitive MS instrumentation and novel biostatistical methods for precise processing of the data, low-abundance PTMs can be successfully detected and the beneficial or unfavorable effects of specific PTMs on cardiac function can be determined. Moreover, computational proteomic strategies that can predict PTM sites based on MS data have gained an increasing interest and can contribute to characterization of PTM profiles in cardiovascular disorders. More recently, machine learning- and deep learning-based methods have been employed to predict the locations of PTMs and explore PTM crosstalk. In this review article, the types of PTMs are briefly overviewed, approaches for PTM identification/quantitation in MS-based proteomics are discussed and recently published proteomic studies on PTMs associated with cardiovascular diseases are included.

Abstract
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is an NAD+-dependent histone H3 deacetylase that is prominently found associated with chromatin, attenuates transcriptionally active promoters and regulates DNA repair, metabolic homeostasis and lifespan. Unlike other sirtuins, it has low affinity to free histone tails but demonstrates strong binding to nucleosomes. It is poorly understood how SIRT6 docking on nucleosomes stimulates its histone deacetylation activity. Here, we present the structure of human SIRT6 bound to a nucleosome determined by cryogenic electron microscopy. The zinc finger domain of SIRT6 associates tightly with the acidic patch of the nucleosome through multiple arginine anchors. The Rossmann fold domain binds to the terminus of the looser DNA half of the nucleosome, detaching two turns of the DNA from the histone octamer and placing the NAD+ binding pocket close to the DNA exit site. This domain shows flexibility with respect to the fixed zinc finger and moves with, but also relative to, the unwrapped DNA terminus. We apply molecular dynamics simulations of the histone tails in the nucleosome to show that in this mode of interaction, the active site of SIRT6 is perfectly poised to catalyze deacetylation of the H3 histone tail and that the partial unwrapping of the DNA allows even lysines close to the H3 core to reach the enzyme.

Abstract
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a neurological disorder caused by epigenetic silencing of the FMR1 gene. Reactivation of FMR1 is a potential therapeutic approach for FXS that would correct the root cause of the disease. Here, using a candidate-based shRNA screen, we identify nine epigenetic repressors that promote silencing of FMR1 in FXS cells (called FMR1 Silencing Factors, or FMR1- SFs). Inhibition of FMR1-SFs with shRNAs or small molecules reactivates FMR1 in cultured undifferentiated induced pluripotent stem cells, neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and post-mitotic neurons derived from FXS patients. One of the FMR1-SFs is the histone methyltransferase EZH2, for which an FDA-approved small molecule inhibitor, EPZ6438 (also known as tazemetostat), is available. We show that EPZ6438 substantially corrects the characteristic molecular and electrophysiological abnormalities of cultured FXS neurons. Unfortunately, EZH2 inhibitors do not efficiently cross the blood-brain barrier, limiting their therapeutic use for FXS. Recently, antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-based approaches have been developed as effective treatment options for certain central nervous system disorders. We therefore derived efficacious ASOs targeting EZH2 and demonstrate that they reactivate FMR1 expression and correct molecular and electrophysiological abnormalities in cultured FXS neurons, and reactivate FMR1 expression in human FXS NPCs engrafted within the brains of mice. Collectively, our results establish EZH2 inhibition in general, and EZH2 ASOs in particular, as a therapeutic approach for FXS.

Abstract
Sirtuins, a class of highly conserved histone/protein deacetylases, are heavily implicated in senescence and aging. The regulation of sirtuin proteins is tightly controlled both transcriptionally and translationally and via localization within the cell. While Sirtiun proteins are implicated with aging, how their levels are regulated during aging across cell types and eliciting tissue specific age-related cellular changes is unclear. Here, we demonstrate that SIRT7 is targeted for degradation during senescence and liver aging. To uncover the significance of SIRT7 loss, we performed proteomics analysis and identified a new SIRT7 interactor, the HMG box protein NUCKS1. We found that the NUCKS1 transcription factor is recruited onto chromatin during senescence and this is mediated by SIRT7 loss. Further, depletion of NUCKS1 delayed senescence upon DNA damage leading to reduction of inflammatory gene expression. Examination of NUCKS1 transcriptional regulation during senescence revealed gene targets of transcription factors NFKB1, RELA, and CEBPβ. Consistently, in both Sirt7 KO mouse liver and in naturally aged livers, Nucks1 was recruited to chromatin. Further, Nucks1 was bound at promoters and enhancers of age-related genes, including transcription factor Rela, and, moreover, these bound sites had increased accessibility during aging. Overall, our results uncover NUCKS1 as a novel interactor of SIRT7, and show that loss of SIRT7 during senescence and liver aging promotes NUCKS1 chromatin binding to regulate metabolic and inflammatory genes.

Abstract
Animal growth is blunted in adverse environments where catabolic metabolism dominates; however, when the adversity disappears, stunted animals rapidly catch up to age-equivalent body size. This phenomenon is called catch-up growth, which we observe in various animals. Since growth retardation and catch-up growth are sequential processes, catabolism or stress response molecules may remain active, especially immediately after growth resumes. Sirtuins (Sirt1-7) deacetylate target proteins in a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent manner, and these enzymes govern diverse alleys of cellular functions. Here, we investigated the roles of Sirt1 and its close paralog Sirt2 in the hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced catch-up growth model using zebrafish embryos. Temporal blockade of Sirt1/2 significantly reduced the growth rate of the embryos in reoxygenation, but it was not evident in constant normoxia. Subsequent gene knockdown and chemical inhibition experiments demonstrated that Sirt1, but not Sirt2, was required for the catchup growth. Inhibition of Sirt1 significantly reduced the activity of mitogen-activated kinase (Mapk) of embryos in the reoxygenation condition. In addition, co-inhibition of Sirt1- and Igf-signaling did not further reduce the body growth or Mapk activation compared to those of the Igf-signaling-alone-inhibited embryos. Furthermore, in the reoxygenation condition, Sirt1- or Igf-signaling inhibition similarly blunted Mapk activity, especially in anterior tissues and trunk muscle, where the sirt1 expression was evident in the catching-up embryos. These results suggest that the catch-up growth requires Sirt1 action to activate the somatotropic Mapk pathway, likely by modifying the Igf-signaling.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation inside the cells instigates oxidative stress, activating stress-responsive genes. The viral strategies for promoting stressful conditions and utilizing the induced host proteins to enhance their replication remain elusive. The present work investigates the impact of oxidative stress responses on Newcastle disease virus (NDV) pathogenesis. Here, we show that the progression of NDV infection varies with intracellular ROS levels. Additionally, the results demonstrate that NDV infection modulates the expression of oxidative stress-responsive genes, majorly sirtuin 7 (SIRT7), a NAD+-dependent deacetylase. The modulation of SIRT7 protein, both through overexpression and knockdown, significantly impacts the replication dynamics of NDV in DF-1 cells. The activation of SIRT7 is found to be associated with the positive regulation of cellular protein deacetylation. Lastly, the results suggested that NDV-driven SIRT7 alters NAD+ metabolism in vitro and in ovo. We concluded that the elevated expression of NDV-mediated SIRT7 protein with enhanced activity metabolizes the NAD+ to deacetylase the host proteins, thus contributing to high virus replication.

Abstract
Years of sire and dam selection based on their pedigree and athletic performance has resulted in a reduction in the reproductive capability of horses. Mare age is considered a major barrier to equine reproduction largely due to an increase in the age at which mares are typically bred following the end of their racing career. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and its involvement in the activation of Sirtuins in fertility are an emerging field of study, with the role of NAD+ in oocyte maturation and embryo development becoming increasingly apparent. While assisted reproductive technologies in equine breeding programs are in their infancy compared to other livestock species such as cattle, there is much more to be learnt, from oocyte maturation to early embryo development and beyond in the mare, which are difficult to study given the complexities associated with mare fertility research. This review examines what is already known about the role of NAD+ and Sirtuins in fertility and discusses how NAD+-elevating agents may be used to activate Sirtuin proteins to improve equine breeding and embryo production programs both in vivo and in vitro.

Abstract
Infertility affects millions of couples worldwide and has a profound impact not only on their families, but also on communities. Telomere attrition has been associated with infertility, DNA damage and fragmentation. Oxidative stress has been shown to affect sperm DNA integrity and telomere length. Sirtuins such as SIRT1 and SIRT3 are involved in aging and oxidative stress response. The aim of the present study is to determine the role of SIRT1 and SIRT3 in regulating oxidative stress, telomere shortening, and their association with oligospermia. Therefore, we assessed the protein levels of SIRT1 and SIRT3, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and catalase activity (CAT) in the seminal plasma of 272 patients with oligospermia and 251 fertile men. We also measured sperm telomere length (STL) and leukocyte telomere length (LTL) using a standard real-time quantitative PCR assay. Sperm chromatin and protamine deficiency were also measured as per standard methods. Our results for oligospermic patients demonstrate significant reductions in semen parameters, shorter STL and LTL, lower levels of SOD, TAC, CAT, SIRT1 and SIRT3 levels, and also significant protamine deficiency and higher levels of MDA and DNA fragmentation. We conclude that a shorter TL in sperms and leukocytes is associated with increased oxidative stress that also accounts for high levels of DNA fragmentation in sperms. Our results support the hypothesis that various sperm parameters in the state of oligospermia are associated with or caused by reduced levels of SIRT1 and SIRT3 proteins.

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

Abstract
The geroscience hypothesis proposes that addressing the biology of aging could directly prevent the onset or mitigate the severity of multiple chronic diseases. Understanding the interplay between key aspects of the biological hallmarks of aging is essential in delivering the promises of the geroscience hypothesis. Notably, the nucleotide nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) interfaces with several biological hallmarks of aging, including cellular senescence, and changes in NAD metabolism have been shown to be involved in the aging process. The relationship between NAD metabolism and cellular senescence appears to be complex. On the one hand, the accumulation of DNA damage and mitochondrial dysfunction induced by low NAD+ can promote the development of senescence. On the other hand, the low NAD+ state that occurs during aging may inhibit SASP development as this secretory phenotype and the development of cellular senescence are both highly metabolically demanding. However, to date, the impact of NAD+ metabolism on the progression of the cellular senescence phenotype has not been fully characterized. Therefore, to explore the implications of NAD metabolism and NAD replacement therapies, it is essential to consider their interactions with other hallmarks of aging, including cellular senescence. We propose that a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between NAD boosting strategies and senolytic agents is necessary to advance the field.

Examples of these changes include posttranslational modifications to DNA-bound histone proteins, DNA methylation, and remodeling of nuclear architecture. Collectively, epigenetic changes provide a layer of regulation that affects transcriptional activity of genes while leaving DNA sequences unaltered. Sequence variants or mutations affecting enzymes responsible for modifying or sensing epigenetic marks have been identified in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), and small-molecule inhibitors of epigenetic complexes have shown promise as therapies for adult heart diseases. Additionally, transgenic mice harboring mutations or deletions of genes encoding epigenetic enzymes recapitulate aspects of human cardiac disease. Taken together, these findings suggest that the evolving field of epigenetics will inform our understanding of congenital and adult cardiac disease and offer new therapeutic opportunities.

Abstract
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive, age-dependent, and unmet chronic inflammatory disease of the peripheral airways, leading to difficulty in exhalation. Several biomarkers have been tested in general towards the resolution for a long time, but no apparent success was achieved. Ongoing therapies of COPD have only symptomatic relief but no cure. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive species which include oxygen radicals and nonradical derivatives, and are the prominent players in COPD. They are produced as natural byproducts of cellular metabolism, but their levels can vary due to exposure to indoor air pollution, occupational pollution, and environmental pollutants such as cigarette smoke. In COPD, the lungs are continuously exposed to high levels of ROS thus leading to oxidative stress. ROS can cause damage to cells, proteins, lipids, and DNA which further contributes to the chronic inflammation in COPD and exacerbates the disease condition. Excessive ROS production can overwhelm cellular antioxidant systems and act as signaling molecules that regulate cellular processes, including antioxidant defense mechanisms involving glutathione and sirtuins which further leads to cellular apoptosis, cellular senescence, inflammation, and sarcopenia. In this review paper, we focused on COPD from different perspectives including potential markers and different cellular processes such as apoptosis, cellular senescence, inflammation, sirtuins, and sarcopenia, and tried to connect the dots between them so that novel therapeutic strategies to evaluate and target the possible underlying mechanisms in COPD could be explored.

Abstract
Sepsis is a dysregulated host response to an infection, characterized by organ failure. The pathophysiology is complex and incompletely understood, but mitochondria appear to play a key role in the cascade of events that culminate in multiple organ failure and potentially death. In shaping immune responses, mitochondria fulfil dual roles: they not only supply energy and metabolic intermediates crucial for immune cell activation and function but also influence inflammatory and cell death pathways. Importantly, mitochondrial dysfunction has a dual impact, compromising both immune system efficiency and the metabolic stability of end organs. Dysfunctional mitochondria contribute to the development of a hyperinflammatory state and loss of cellular homeostasis, resulting in poor clinical outcomes. Already in early sepsis, signs of mitochondrial dysfunction are apparent and consequently, strategies to optimize mitochondrial function in sepsis should not only prevent the occurrence of mitochondrial dysfunction, but also cover the repair of the sustained mitochondrial damage. Here, we discuss mitochondrial quality control (mtQC) in the pathogenesis of sepsis and exemplify how mtQC could serve as therapeutic target to overcome mitochondrial dysfunction. Hence, replacing or repairing dysfunctional mitochondria may contribute to the recovery of organ function in sepsis. Mitochondrial biogenesis is a process that results in the formation of new mitochondria and is critical for maintaining a pool of healthy mitochondria. However, exacerbated biogenesis during early sepsis can result in accumulation of structurally aberrant mitochondria that fail to restore bioenergetics, produce excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) and exacerbate the disease course. Conversely, enhancing mitophagy can protect against organ damage by limiting the release of mitochondrial-derived damage-associated molecules (DAMPs). Furthermore, promoting mitophagy may facilitate the growth of healthy mitochondria by blocking the replication of damaged mitochondria and allow for post sepsis organ recovery through enabling mitophagy-coupled biogenesis. The remaining healthy mitochondria may provide an undamaged scaffold to reproduce functional mitochondria. However, the kinetics of mtQC in sepsis, specifically mitophagy, and the optimal timing for intervention remain poorly understood. This review emphasizes the importance of integrating mitophagy induction with mtQC mechanisms to prevent undesired effects associated with solely the induction of mitochondrial biogenesis.

Abstract
Glaucoma is the world's leading irreversible blinding eye disease. Lowering intraocular pressure is currently the only effective clinical treatment. However, there is a lack of long-acting IOP-lowering drugs, and some patients still experience retinal ganglion cell loss even with good intraocular pressure control. Currently, there is no effective method for neuroprotection and regeneration in clinical practice for glaucoma. In recent years, epigenetics has been widely researched and reported for its role in glaucoma's neuroprotection and regeneration. This article reviews the changes in histone modifications, DNA methylation, non-coding RNA, and m6A methylation in glaucoma, aiming to provide new perspectives for glaucoma management, protection of retinal ganglion cells, and axon regeneration by understanding epigenetic alterations.

Abstract
SIRT4, together with SIRT3 and SIRT5, comprises the mitochondrially localized subgroup of sirtuins. SIRT4 regulates mitochondrial bioenergetics, dynamics (mitochondrial fusion), and quality control (mitophagy) via its NAD+ -dependent enzymatic activities. Here, we address the regulation of SIRT4 itself by characterizing its protein stability and degradation upon CoCl2 -induced pseudohypoxic stress that typically triggers mitophagy. Interestingly, we observed that of the mitochondrial sirtuins, only the protein levels of SIRT4 or ectopically expressed SIRT4-eGFP decrease upon CoCl2 treatment of HEK293 cells. Co-treatment with BafA1, an inhibitor of autophagosome-lysosome fusion required for autophagy/mitophagy, or the use of the proteasome inhibitor MG132, prevented CoCl2 -induced SIRT4 downregulation. Consistent with the proteasomal degradation of SIRT4, the lysine mutants SIRT4(K78R) and SIRT4(K299R) showed significantly reduced polyubiquitination upon CoCl2 treatment and were more resistant to pseudohypoxia-induced degradation as compared to SIRT4. Moreover, SIRT4(K78R) and SIRT4(K299R) displayed increased basal protein stability as compared to wild-type SIRT4 when subjected to MG132 treatment or cycloheximide (CHX) chase assays. Thus, our data indicate that stress-induced protein degradation of SIRT4 occurs through two mechanisms: (a) via mitochondrial autophagy/mitophagy, and (b) as a separate process via proteasomal degradation within the cytoplasm.

Abstract
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is a member of the mammalian sirtuin family of NAD+-dependent protein deacylases, homologues of the yeast silent information regulator 2 (Sir2). SIRT6 has remarkably diverse functions and plays a key role in a variety of biological processes for maintaining cellular and organismal homeostasis. In this review, our primary aim is to summarize recent progress in understanding SIRT6's functions in the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), with the hope of further drawing interests in SIRT6 to increase efforts in exploring the therapeutic potential of this unique protein in the vision field. Before describing SIRT6's role in the eye, we first discuss SIRT6's general functions in a wide range of biological contexts. SIRT6 plays an important role in gene silencing, metabolism, DNA repair, antioxidant defense, inflammation, aging and longevity, early development, and stress response. In addition, recent studies have revealed SIRT6's role in macrophage polarization and mitochondrial homeostasis. Despite being initially understudied in the context of the eye, recent efforts have begun to elucidate the critical functions of SIRT6 in the retina and RPE. In the retina, SIRT6 is essential for adult retinal function, regulates energy metabolism by suppressing glycolysis that affects photoreceptor cell survival, protects retinal ganglion cells from oxidative stress, and plays a role in Müller cells during early neurodegenerative events in diabetic retinopathy. In the RPE, SIRT6 activates autophagy in culture and protects against oxidative stress in mice. Taken together, this review demonstrates that better understanding of SIRT6's functions and their mechanisms, both in and out of the context of the eye, holds great promise for the development of SIRT6-targeted strategies for prevention and treatment of blinding eye diseases.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated that Aedes aegypti pyruvate kinase (AaPK) plays a key role in the regulation of both carbon and nitrogen metabolism in mosquitoes. To further elucidate whether AaPK can be post-translationally regulated by Ae. aegypti sirtuin 2 (AaSirt2), an NAD+-dependent deacetylase that catalyzes the removal of acetyl groups from acetylated lysine residues, we conducted a series of analysis in non-starved and starved female mosquitoes. Transcriptional and protein profiles of AaSirt2, analyzed by qPCR and western blots, indicated that the AaSirt2 is differentially modulated in response to sugar or blood feeding in mosquito tissues dissected at different times during the first gonotrophic cycle. We also found that AaSirt2 is localized in both cytosolic and mitochondrial cellular compartments of fat body and thorax. Multiple lysine-acetylated proteins were detected by western blotting in both cellular compartments. Furthermore, western blotting of immunoprecipitated proteins provided evidence that AaPK is lysine-acetylated and bound with AaSirt2 in the cytosolic fractions of fat body and thorax from non-starved and starved females. In correlation with these results, we also discovered that RNAi-mediated knockdown of AaSirt2 in the fat body of starved females significantly decreased AaPK protein abundance. Notably, survivorship of AaSirt2-deficient females maintained under four different nutritional regimens was not significantly affected. Taken together, our data reveal that AaPK is post-translationally regulated by AaSirt2.

Abstract
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and the main cause of excess mortality in patients with type 2 DM. The pathogenesis and progression of DN are closely associated with disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism. As a member of the sirtuin family, SIRT6 has deacetylation, defatty-acylation, and adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation enzyme activities as well as anti-aging and anticancer activities. SIRT6 plays an important role in glucose and lipid metabolism and signaling, especially in DN. SIRT6 improves glucose and lipid metabolism by controlling glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, affecting insulin secretion and transmission and regulating lipid decomposition, transport, and synthesis. Targeting SIRT6 may provide a new therapeutic strategy for DN by improving glucose and lipid metabolism. This review elaborates on the important role of SIRT6 in glucose and lipid metabolism, discusses the potential of SIRT6 as a therapeutic target to improve glucose and lipid metabolism and alleviate DN occurrence and progression of DN, and describes the prospects for future research.

Abstract
Human sirtuins play important roles in various cellular events including DNA repair, gene silencing, mitochondrial biogenesis, insulin secretion and apoptosis. They regulate a wide array of protein and enzyme targets through their NAD+ -dependent deacetylase activities. Sirtuins are also thought to mediate the beneficial effects of low-calorie intake to extend longevity in diverse organisms from yeast to mammals. Small molecules mimicking calorie restriction to stimulate sirtuin activity are attractive therapeutics against age-related disorders such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and neurodegeneration. Little is known about one of the mitochondrial sirtuins, SIRT5. SIRT5 has emerged as a critical player in maintaining cardiac health and neuronal viability upon stress and functions as a tumour suppressor in a context-specific manner. Much has been debated about whether SIRT5 has evolved away from being a deacetylase because of its weak catalytic activity, especially in the in vitro testing. We have, for the first time, identified a SIRT5-selective allosteric activator, nicotinamide riboside (NR). It can increase SIRT5 catalytic efficiency with different synthetic peptide substrates. The mechanism of action was further explored using a combination of molecular biology and biochemical strategies. Based on the existing structural biology information, the NR binding site was also mapped out. These activators are powerful chemical probes for the elucidation of cellular regulations and biological functions of SIRT5. The knowledge gained in this study can be used to guide the design and synthesis of more potent, isotype-selective SIRT5 activators and to develop them into therapeutics for metabolic disorders and age-related diseases.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by amyloid-β (Aβ) deposition and neurofibrillary tangles. Although the NAD+ -dependent deacetylases SIRT1 and SIRT2 play pivotal roles in age-related diseases, their cooperative effects in AD have not yet been elucidated. Here, we report that the SIRT2:SIRT1 ratio is elevated in the brains of aging mice and in the AD mouse models. In HT22 mouse hippocampal neuronal cells, Aβ challenge correlates with decreased SIRT1 expression, while SIRT2 expression is increased. Overexpression of SIRT1 prevents Aβ-induced neurotoxicity. We find that SIRT1 impedes SIRT2-mediated APP deacetylation by inhibiting the binding of SIRT2 to APP. Deletion of SIRT1 reduces APP recycling back to the cell surface and promotes APP transiting toward the endosome, thus contributing to the amyloidogenic processing of APP. Our findings define a mechanism for neuroprotection by SIRT1 through suppression of SIRT2 deacetylation, and provide a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention of AD.

Abstract
Mitochondria are well known as organelles responsible for the maintenance of cellular bioenergetics through the production of ATP. Although oxidative phosphorylation may be their most important function, mitochondria are also integral for the synthesis of metabolic precursors, calcium regulation, the production of reactive oxygen species, immune signaling, and apoptosis. Considering the breadth of their responsibilities, mitochondria are fundamental for cellular metabolism and homeostasis. Appreciating this significance, translational medicine has begun to investigate how mitochondrial dysfunction can represent a harbinger of disease. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of mitochondrial metabolism, cellular bioenergetics, mitochondrial dynamics, autophagy, mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns, mitochondria-mediated cell death pathways, and how mitochondrial dysfunction at any of these levels is associated with disease pathogenesis. Mitochondria-dependent pathways may thereby represent an attractive therapeutic target for ameliorating human disease.

Abstract
Aging is a major risk factor contributing to pathophysiological changes in the heart, yet its intrinsic mechanisms have been largely unexplored in primates. In this study, we investigated the hypertrophic and senescence phenotypes in the hearts of aged cynomolgus monkeys as well as the transcriptomic and proteomic landscapes of young and aged primate hearts. SIRT2 was identified as a key protein decreased in aged monkey hearts, and engineered SIRT2 deficiency in human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes recapitulated key senescence features of primate heart aging. Further investigations revealed that loss of SIRT2 in human cardiomyocytes led to the hyperacetylation of STAT3, which transcriptionally activated CDKN2B and, in turn, triggered cardiomyocyte degeneration. Intra-myocardial injection of lentiviruses expressing SIRT2 ameliorated age-related cardiac dysfunction in mice. Taken together, our study provides valuable resources for decoding primate cardiac aging and identifies the SIRT2-STAT3-CDKN2B regulatory axis as a potential therapeutic target against human cardiac aging and aging-related cardiovascular diseases.

SIRT2 inhibition protects against cardiac hypertrophy and ischemic injury. eLife 2023; 12:e85571. [PMID: 37728319 PMCID: PMC10558204 DOI: 10.7554/elife.85571] [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: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT) exhibit deacetylation or ADP-ribosyltransferase activity and regulate a wide range of cellular processes in the nucleus, mitochondria, and cytoplasm. The role of the only sirtuin that resides in the cytoplasm, SIRT2, in the development of ischemic injury and cardiac hypertrophy is not known. In this paper, we show that the hearts of mice with deletion of Sirt2 (Sirt2-/-) display improved cardiac function after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and pressure overload (PO), suggesting that SIRT2 exerts maladaptive effects in the heart in response to stress. Similar results were obtained in mice with cardiomyocyte-specific Sirt2 deletion. Mechanistic studies suggest that SIRT2 modulates cellular levels and activity of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (NRF2), which results in reduced expression of antioxidant proteins. Deletion of Nrf2 in the hearts of Sirt2-/- mice reversed protection after PO. Finally, treatment of mouse hearts with a specific SIRT2 inhibitor reduced cardiac size and attenuates cardiac hypertrophy in response to PO. These data indicate that SIRT2 has detrimental effects in the heart and plays a role in cardiac response to injury and the progression of cardiac hypertrophy, which makes this protein a unique member of the SIRT family. Additionally, our studies provide a novel approach for treatment of cardiac hypertrophy and injury by targeting SIRT2 pharmacologically, providing a novel avenue for the treatment of these disorders.
