Arch Biochem Biophys 2024; 760:110108. [PMID: 39084281 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2024.110108] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2024] [Revised: 07/01/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
Maternal inflammation can lead to premature birth and fetal brain damage. CircRNA_19038 and lncRNA-AK016022 have been shown to be significantly reduced in brain tissues of preterm mice, while whether they are involved in the regulation of preterm white matter injury remains to be explored. Pregnant mice were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to establish a preterm brain injury model. Healthy mice born at term served as controls. Lentivirus-mediated circ_19038 overexpression vector (LV-circ_19038), LV-lnc-AK016022, LV-Sirt1 and LV-sh-Sirt1 were administered to preterm mice through the ventricles. The expression levels of circ_19038, lnc-AK016022 and Sirt1 in the brain tissues of preterm mice were significantly lower than those of full-term healthy mice, and circ_19038 and lnc-AK016022 were co-localized in the brain tissues. Upregulation of circ_19038 or/and lnc-AK016022 promoted remyelination and alleviated white matter structural damage, neuroinflammation, and long-term cognitive and motor deficits in preterm mice, and the combined effect of circ_19038 and lnc-AK016022 showed better results. Primary mouse neuronal cells were isolated to investigate the regulatory effects of circ_19038 and lnc-AK016022 on Sirt1. Circ_19038 and lnc-AK016022 jointly promoted the expression of Sirt1 by adsorbing miR-1b and miR-328, respectively. Moreover, silencing Sirt1 antagonized the beneficial effects of circ_19038 or/and lnc-AK016022 on brain white matter injury in preterm mice. In conclusion, circ_19038 and lnc-AK016022 synergistically regulated Sirt1 expression to promote remyelination and alleviate white matter injury in preterm mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preconditioning by intermittent fasting is linked to improved cognition and motor function, and enhanced recovery after stroke. Although the duration of fasting was shown to elicit different levels of neuroprotection after ischemic stroke, the impact of time of fasting with respect to the circadian cycles remains unexplored. METHODS Cohorts of mice were subjected to a daily 16-hour fast, either during the dark phase (active-phase intermittent fasting) or the light phase (inactive-phase intermittent fasting) or were fed ad libitum. Following a 6-week dietary regimen, mice were subjected to transient focal cerebral ischemia and underwent behavioral functional assessment. Brain samples were collected for RNA sequencing and histopathologic analyses. RESULTS Active-phase intermittent fasting cohort exhibited better poststroke motor and cognitive recovery as well as reduced infarction, in contrast to inactive-phase intermittent fasting cohort, when compared with ad libitum cohort. In addition, protection of dendritic spine density/morphology and increased expression of postsynaptic density protein-95 were observed in the active-phase intermittent fasting. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicate that the time of daily fasting is an important factor in inducing ischemic tolerance by intermittent fasting.

SIRT1 restores mitochondrial structure and function in rats by activating SIRT3 after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. Cell Biol Toxicol 2024; 40:31. [PMID: 38767771 PMCID: PMC11106166 DOI: 10.1007/s10565-024-09869-2] [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: 12/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (CI/R) injury, which can be ameliorated by Sirtuin-3 (SIRT3). Under stress conditions, the SIRT3-promoted mitochondrial functional recovery depends on both its activity and expression. However, the approach to enhance SIRT3 activity after CI/R injury remains unelucidated. In this study, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were intracranially injected with either adeno-associated viral Sirtuin-1 (AAV-SIRT1) or AAV-sh_SIRT1 before undergoing transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). Primary cortical neurons were cultured and transfected with lentiviral SIRT1 (LV-SIRT1) and LV-sh_SIRT1 respectively before oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R). Afterwards, rats and neurons were respectively treated with a selective SIRT3 inhibitor, 3-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) pyridine (3-TYP). The expression, function, and related mechanism of SIRT1 were investigated by Western Blot, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence staining, etc. After CI/R injury, SIRT1 expression decreased in vivo and in vitro. The simulation and immune-analyses reported strong interaction between SIRT1 and SIRT3 in the cerebral mitochondria before and after CI/R. SIRT1 overexpression enhanced SIRT3 activity by increasing the deacetylation of SIRT3, which ameliorated CI/R-induced cerebral infarction, neuronal apoptosis, oxidative stress, neurological and motor dysfunction, and mitochondrial respiratory chain dysfunction, promoted mitochondrial biogenesis, and retained mitochondrial integrity and mitochondrial morphology. Meanwhile, SIRT1 overexpression alleviated OGD/R-induced neuronal death and mitochondrial bioenergetic deficits. These effects were reversed by AAV-sh_SIRT1 and the neuroprotective effects of SIRT1 were partially offset by 3-TYP. These results suggest that SIRT1 restores the structure and function of mitochondria by activating SIRT3, offering neuroprotection against CI/R injury, which signifies a potential approach for the clinical management of cerebral ischemia.

Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 168:115598. [PMID: 37820565 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Cerebral infarction (CI) has become one of the leading causes of death and acquired disability worldwide. Astragaloside IV (AST IV), one of the basic components of Astragalus membranaceus, has a protective effect on CI. However, the underlying mechanism has not been conclusively elucidated. Therefore, this study aims to explore the underlying mechanism of AST IV improving brain injury after CI. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) were used to simulate cerebral infarction injury in SD rats and HUVECs cells. Neurologic score, Evans blue, TTC and HE staining were used to observe brain injury in rats. Cell viability and migration were measured in vitro. Angiogenesis was detected by immunofluorescence and tube formation assay, and cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry. Western blot was used to find the expression of related proteins. Molecular docking, virtual mutation, site-directed mutagenesis, MST, and lentivirus silencing were used for target validation. The results showed that AST IV alleviated neurological impairment and promoted angiogenesis after CI. Moreover, AST IV greatly increased the transcription levels of SIRT6 and SIRT7, but had no effect on SIRT1-SIRT5, and promoted cell viability, migration, angiogenesis and S phase ratio in OGD/R-induced HUVECs. Furthermore, AST IV up-regulated the protein expressions of CDK4, cyclin D1, VEGFA and VEGF2R. Interestingly, AST IV not only bound to SIRT7, but also increased the expression of SIRT7. Silencing SIRT7 by lentivirus neutralizes the positive effects of AST IV. Taken together, the present study revealed that AST IV may improve brain tissue damage after CI by targeting SIRT7/VEGFA signaling pathway to promote angiogenesis.

Abstract
Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is an acute neurologic emergency with poor outcomes, and mitochondrial dysfunction is known as one of the key pathological mechanisms underlying the SAH-induced early brain injury (EBI). 1-{3-[2-(1-benzothiophen-5-yl)ethoxy]propyl} azetidin-3-ol maleate (T817MA) is a newly synthesized neurotrophic compound that has been demonstrated to exert protective effects against brain injury. Here, we investigated the effect of T817MA in neuronal injury following experimental SAH both in vitro and in vivo. Primary cultured cortical neurons were treated with oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb) to mimic SAH in vitro, and T817MA at concentrations higher than 0.1 μM reduced OxyHb-induced neuronal injury. T817MA treatment significantly inhibited lipid peroxidation, reduced neuronal apoptosis and attenuated mitochondrial fragmentation. The results of western blot showed that T817MA markedly reduced the expression of mitochondrial fission proteins, fission protein 1 (Fis-1) and dynamin-related GTPase-1 (Drp-1), but prolonged the expression of the postsynaptic protein activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc). In addition, T817MA significantly increased the expression of sirtuin 1 (Sirt1), which was accompanied by preserved enzymatic of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH2) and superoxide dismutase (SOD). Knockdown of Sirt1 and Arc via small interfere RNA (siRNA) transfection partially prevented the T817MA-induced protection in cortical neurons. Furthermore, treatment with T817MA in vivo significantly reduced brain damage and preserved neurological function in rats. The decreased expression of Fis-1 and Drp-1, as well as the increased expression of Arc and Sirt1 were also observed in vivo. Taken together, these data indicate that the neuroprotective agent T817MA protects against SAH-induced brain injury via Sirt1- and Arc-mediated regulation of mitochondrial dynamics.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is a redox cofactor critical for oxidative phosphorylation. Nicotinamide (NAM) and nicotinamide riboside (NR) are NAD+ precursors widely used as nutritional supplements to augment oxidative phosphorylation. Indeed, NAD+ precursors have been reported to improve outcomes in ischemic stroke when administered as a rescue therapy after stroke onset. However, we have also reported that enhanced reliance on oxidative phosphorylation before ischemia onset might worsen outcomes. To address the paradox, we examined how NAD+ precursors modulate the outcome of middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice, when administered either 20 minutes after reperfusion or daily for three days before ischemia onset. A single post-ischemic dose of NAM or NR indeed improved tissue and neurologic outcomes examined at 72 hours. In contrast, pre-ischemic treatment for three days enlarged the infarcts and worsened neurological deficits. As a possible explanation for the diametric outcomes, a single dose of NAM or NR augmented tissue AMPK, PGC1α, SIRT1, and ATP in both naïve and ischemic brains, while the multiple-dose paradigm failed to do so. Our data suggest that NAD+ precursor supplements may sensitize the brain to subsequent ischemic events, despite their neuroprotective effect when administered after ischemia onset.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) accounts for only 5 % of all stroke cases, but carries a heavy burden of morbidity and mortality. Activity regulated cytoskeleton associated protein (Arc) is an immediate early gene (IEG)-coded postsynaptic protein that is involved in synaptic plasticity. Increasing evidence and our previous studies have shown that Arc might be involved in the pathological mechanism of various neurological diseases, such as traumatic brain injury (TBI). In this study, we investigated the level of Arc in cerebrospinal fluids (CSF) of aSAH patients and its potential role in brain damage following experimental SAH model. We found that the levels of Arc in aSAH patients' CSF positively correlated with Hunt-Hess (H&H) grades. Knockdown of endogenous Arc expression by small interfere RNA (siRNA) significantly increased brain edema and oxidative stress following SAH. The results of immunostaining in brain sections showed that knockdown of Arc enhanced activation of microglia and astrocytes. In congruent, generation of inflammatory cytokines following SAH was increased by Si-Arc transfection. The results of western blot analysis showed that knockdown of Arc inhibited the expression of Sirt1 and Nrf2, which was accompanied by decreased enzymatic activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px). In addition, activation of sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) via agonist SRT2104 markedly decreased the brain damage and neuroinflammation induced by Arc knockdown. In conclusion, knockdown of endogenous Arc could aggravate brain damage and neuroinflammation following experimental SAH, and Arc levels in aSAH patients' CSF might be a potential indicator of brain damage and prognosis.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke is one of the main causes of mortality and disability worldwide. However, the majority of patients are currently unable to benefit from intravenous thrombolysis or intravascular mechanical thrombectomy due to the limited treatment windows and serious complications. Silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (Sirt1), a nicotine adenine dinucleotide-dependent enzyme, has emerged as a potential therapeutic target for ischemic stroke due to its ability to maintain brain homeostasis and possess neuroprotective properties in a variety of pathological conditions for the central nervous system. Animal and clinical studies have shown that activation of Sirt1 can lessen neurological deficits and reduce the infarcted volume, offering promise for the treatment of ischemic stroke. In this review, we summarized the direct evidence and related mechanisms of Sirt1 providing neuroprotection against cerebral ischemic stroke. Firstly, we introduced the protein structure, catalytic mechanism and specific location of Sirt1 in the central nervous system. Secondly, we list the activators and inhibitors of Sirt1, which are primarily divided into three categories: natural, synthetic and physiological. Finally, we reviewed the neuroprotective effects of Sirt1 in ischemic stroke and discussed the specific mechanisms, including reducing neurological deficits by inhibiting various programmed cell death such as pyroptosis, necroptosis, ferroptosis, and cuproptosis in the acute phase, as well as enhancing neurological repair by promoting angiogenesis and neurogenesis in the later stage. Our review aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of the critical role of Sirt1 in cerebral ischemic stroke and to offer novel therapeutic strategies for this condition.

[PMID: 37627275 PMCID: PMC10452362 DOI: 10.3390/biom13081210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 07/30/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Stroke is a major cause of mortality and disability globally, with ischemic stroke (IS) accounting for over 80% of all stroke cases. The pathological process of IS involves numerous signal molecules, among which are the highly conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent enzymes known as sirtuins (SIRTs). SIRTs modulate various biological processes, including cell differentiation, energy metabolism, DNA repair, inflammation, and oxidative stress. Importantly, several studies have reported a correlation between SIRTs and IS. This review introduces the general aspects of SIRTs, including their distribution, subcellular location, enzyme activity, and substrate. We also discuss their regulatory roles and potential mechanisms in IS. Finally, we describe the current therapeutic methods based on SIRTs, such as pharmacotherapy, non-pharmacological therapeutic/rehabilitative interventions, epigenetic regulators, potential molecules, and stem cell-derived exosome therapy. The data collected in this study will potentially contribute to both clinical and fundamental research on SIRTs, geared towards developing effective therapeutic candidates for future treatment of IS.

An Fgr kinase inhibitor attenuates sepsis-associated encephalopathy by ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation via the SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway. J Transl Med 2023; 21:486. [PMID: 37475042 PMCID: PMC10360347 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04345-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/22/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is characterized by diffuse brain dysfunction, long-term cognitive impairment, and increased morbidity and mortality. The current treatment for SAE is mainly symptomatic; the lack of specific treatment options and a poor understanding of the underlying mechanism of disease are responsible for poor patient outcomes. Fgr is a member of the Src family of tyrosine kinases and is involved in the innate immune response, hematologic cancer, diet-induced obesity, and hemorrhage-induced thalamic pain. This study investigated the protection provided by an Fgr kinase inhibitor in SAE and the underlying mechanism(s) of action. METHODS A cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced mouse sepsis model was established. Mice were treated with or without an Fgr inhibitor and a PGC-1α inhibitor/activator. An open field test, a novel object recognition test, and an elevated plus maze were used to assess neurobehavioral changes in the mice. Western blotting and immunofluorescence were used to measure protein expression, and mRNA levels were measured using quantitative PCR (qPCR). An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to quantify inflammatory cytokines. Mitochondrial membrane potential and morphology were measured by JC-1, electron microscopy, and the MitoTracker Deep Red probe. Oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction were analyzed. In addition, the regulatory effect of Fgr on sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) was assessed. RESULTS CLP-induced sepsis increased the expression of Fgr in the hippocampal neurons. Pharmacological inhibition of Fgr attenuated CLP-induced neuroinflammation, the survival rate, cognitive and emotional dysfunction, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Moreover, Fgr interacted with SIRT1 and reduced its activity and expression. In addition, activation of SIRT1/PGC-1α promoted the protective effects of the Fgr inhibitor on CLP-induced brain dysfunction, while inactivation of SIRT1/PGC-1α counteracted the benefits of the Fgr inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first report of Fgr kinase inhibition markedly ameliorating SAE through activation of the SIRT1/PGC-1α pathway, and this may be a promising therapeutic target for SAE.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common age-related neurodegenerative disease in the central nervous system and is the primary cause of dementia. It is clinically characterized by the memory impairment, aphasia, apraxia, agnosia, visuospatial and executive dysfunction, behavioral changes, and so on. Incidence of this disease was bound up with age, genetic factors, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular dysfunction, and other basic diseases, but the exact etiology has not been clarified. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small endogenous non-coding RNAs that were involved in the regulation of post-transcriptional gene expression. miRNAs have been extensively studied as noninvasive potential biomarkers for disease due to their relative stability in bodily fluids. In addition, they play a significant role in the physiological and pathological processes of various neurological disorders, including stroke, AD, and Parkinson's disease. MiR-155, as an important pro-inflammatory mediator of neuroinflammation, was reported to participate in the progression of β-amyloid peptide and tau via regulating immunity and inflammation. In this review, we put emphasis on the effects of miR-155 on AD and explore the underlying biological mechanisms which could provide a novel approach for diagnosis and treatment of AD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic stroke is the obstruction of cerebral blood flow with a high morbidity. Microglial polarization is a contributing factor for ischemic stroke-induced injury. Here, we focused on function and mechanism of RNA binding protein RPS3 in microglial polarization after ischemic stroke. METHODS Transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) was conducted in SD rats. Infarct area was detected by TTC staining and neurological score was assessed. Fluorescence staining tested neuronal apoptosis and microglial differentiation. Oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) was applied for treating microglia. Levels of RPS3, SIRT1, M1 and M2 polarization markers (CD86, iNOS, CD206, Arg-1) were determined by RT-qPCR. Western blot detected RPS3, SIRT1, NLRP3, ASC and Cleaved-caspase-1 expression. RIP assay validated that RPS3 interacted with SIRT1. CCK-8 measured cell viability. Flow cytometry and ELISA assessed M1 and M2 polarization markers. LDH release was detected using colorimetric CytoTox 96 Cytotoxicity kit. RESULTS RPS3 depletion improved neurological dysfunction and reduced infarction area in rats after tMCAO. Knockdown of RPS3 resulted in increased SIRT1 expression and decreased NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and induced microglia M2 polarization after ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Besides, RPS3 directly targeted SIRT1 and reduced its expression in microglia. RPS3 silencing suppressed OGD/R-triggered neuronal and microglial cell death through SIRT1. Moreover, RPS3 activated NLRP3 inflammasome and regulated microglial polarization via SIRT1. CONCLUSION RPS3 regulates microglial polarization and neuronal injury through SIRT1/NLRP3 pathway, suggesting a novel target for ischemic stroke treatment.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a cerebrovascular accident with an acute onset, severe disease characteristics, and poor prognosis. Within 72 hours after the occurrence of SAH, a sequence of pathological changes occur in the body including blood-brain barrier breakdown, cerebral edema, and reduced cerebrovascular flow that are defined as early brain injury (EBI), and it has been demonstrated that EBI exhibits an obvious correlation with poor prognosis. Ferroptosis is a novel programmed cell death mode. Ferroptosis is induced by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid peroxides and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Ferroptosis involves abnormal iron metabolism, glutathione depletion, and lipid peroxidation. Recent study revealed that ferroptosis is involved in EBI and is significantly correlated with poor prognosis. With the gradual realization of the importance of ferroptosis, an increasing number of studies have been conducted to examine this process. This review summarizes the latest work in this field and tracks current research progress. We focused on iron metabolism, lipid metabolism, reduction systems centered on the GSH/GPX4 system, other newly discovered GSH/GPX4-independent antioxidant systems, and their related targets in the context of early brain injury. Additionally, we examined certain ferroptosis regulatory mechanisms that have been studied in other fields but not in SAH. A link between death and oxidative stress has been described. Additionally, we highlight the future research direction of ferroptosis in EBI of SAH, and this provides new ideas for follow-up research.

Sirt1 Overexpression Inhibits Fibrous Scar Formation and Improves Functional Recovery After Cerebral Ischemic Injury Through the Deacetylation of 14-3-3ζ. Mol Neurobiol 2023:10.1007/s12035-023-03378-9.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemic stroke is one of the leading causes of human death. The fibrous scar is one of major factors influencing repair in central nervous system (CNS) injury. Silencing information regulator 2-related enzyme 1 (Sirt1) can regulate peripheral tissue and organ fibrosis. However, it is unclear how the fibrous scar forms and is regulated and it is unknown whether and how Sirt1 regulates the formation of the fibrous scar after cerebral ischemic stroke. Therefore, in the present study, we examined the effects of Sirt1 on the formation of the fibrotic scar after middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) injury in vivo and on the transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)-induced meningeal fibroblast fibrotic response in vitro, and we explored the molecular mechanisms underlying the Sirt1-regulated fibrosis process in vitro. We found that MCAO/R injury induced fibrotic scar formation in the ischemic area, which was accompanied by the downregulation of Sirt1 expression. The overexpression of Sirt1 reduced the infarct volume, improved Nissl body structure and reduced neurons injury, attenuated formation of fibrotic scar, upregulated growth associated protein43 (GAP43) and synaptophysin (SYP) expression, and promoted neurological function recovery. Similarly, Sirt1 expression was also downregulated in the TGF-β1-induced fibrosis model. Sirt1 overexpression inhibited fibroblast migration, proliferation, transdifferentiation into myofibroblasts, and secretion of extracellular matrix(ECM) by regulating the deacetylation of lysine at K49 and K120 sites of 14-3-3ζ in vitro. Therefore, we believe that Sirt1 could regulate fibrous scar formation and improve neurological function after cerebral ischemic stroke through regulating deacetylation of 14-3-3ζ.

Abstract
In recent years, researchers have begun to realize the importance of the role of non-coding RNAs in the treatment of cancer and cardiovascular and neurological diseases. LncRNAs and miRNAs are important non-coding RNAs, which regulate gene expression and activate mRNA translation through binding to diverse target sites. Their involvement in the regulation of protein function and the modulation of physiological and pathological conditions continues to be investigated. Sirtuins, especially Sirt1, have a critical function in regulating a variety of physiological processes such as oxidative stress, inflammation, apoptosis, and autophagy. The lncRNAs/miRNAs/Sirt1 axis may be a novel regulatory mechanism, which is involved in the progression and/or prevention of numerous diseases. This review focuses on recent findings on the crosstalk between non-coding RNAs and Sirt1 in myocardial and cerebral injuries and may provide some insight into the development of novel approaches in the treatment of these disorders.Abbreviation: BMECs, brain microvascular endothelial cells; C2dat1, calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II subunit delta (CAMK2D)-associated transcript 1; EPCs, endothelial progenitor cells; FOXOs, forkhead transcription factors; GAS5, growth arrest-specific 5; HAECs, human aortic endothelial cells; HAND2-AS1, HAND2 Antisense RNA 1; HIF-1α, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α; ILF3-AS1, interleukin enhancer-binding factor 3-antisense RNA 1; KLF3-AS1, KLF3 antisense RNA 1; LncRNA, long noncoding RNA; LUADT1, Lung Adenocarcinoma Associated Transcript 1; MALAT1, Metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1; miRNA, microRNA; NEAT1, nuclear enriched abundant transcript 1; NF-κB, nuclear factor kappa B; OIP5-AS1, Opa-interacting protein 5-antisense transcript 1; Sirt1-AS, Sirt1 Antisense RNA; SNHG7, small nucleolar RNA host gene 7; SNHG8, small nucleolar RNA host gene 8; SNHG12, small nucleolar RNA host gene 12; SNHG15, small nucleolar RNA host gene 15; STAT3, signal transducers and activators of transcription 3; TUG1, taurine up-regulated gene 1; VSMCs, vascular smooth muscle cells; XIST, X inactive specific transcript; ZFAS1, ZNFX1 Antisense RNA 1.

Abstract
Hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) is one of the major causes of infant death and long-term neurological disturbances, which puts great pressure on families and society. Previous studies have reported that neuroinflammation regulates the pathogenesis of HIBD. MiR-155 has been reported to participate in many brain injuries; however, its direct implication and related mechanisms are not illuminated in HIBD. Herein, we identified that miR-155 plays a vital role in HIBD both in in vitro and in vivo models. We found that miR-155 promoted inflammation and apoptosis via targeting SIRT1 and negatively regulated its expression levels in oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) in an in vitro model. Silencing of SIRT1 reversed the effects of miR-155 inhibitor on apoptosis and the NF-κB pathway in OGD/R-treated PC12 cells and microglia (BV2) cells. Moreover, in a neonatal rat HIBD model, miR-155 enhanced apoptosis and inflammation in the brains of rats with HIBD in vivo. Together, our results demonstrated that miR-155 exerted a negative effect in HIBD by targeting SIRT1, which could contribute to the treatment of neonatal patients with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the regulation and related mechanisms of MALAT1 in cerebral ischemia- reperfusion (CI/R) injury. MATERIALS AND METHODS 72 mice were divided into sham group (n=24), MCAO group (n=24), MCAO+pcDNA-NC group (n=12) and MCAO+MALAT1 group (n=12). At 12 h, 24 h and 48 h after reperfusion, 6 mice were randomly selected from the sham group and the MCAO group to detect the expression of MALAT1, miR-142-3p and SIRT1 in brain tissue. All mice were scored for neurobehavioral after 48 h of reperfusion. After the completion of the scoring, 6 mice were randomly selected from each group and brain tissue was obtained for TTC analysis. The remaining mice of each group were kept on the Morris water maze test after 3 days of feeding. TTC staining and cerebral infarct volume determination. The infarct size of each brain slice was calculated using Image J image analysis software. OGD/R model PC12 cells were prepared according to simulating CI/R injury in vitro. MALAT1 was cloned into the pcDNA3.1 to construct a MALAT1 overexpression vector with the empty vector NC as a control. Plasmid or oligonuceotides were transfected into PC12 cells. The content of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) in brain tissue was detected. The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) activity was measured. RESULTS MALAT1 was down-regulated in a time-dependent manner in CI/R-damaged mouse cerebral cortex and OGD/R-induced PC12 cells, accompanied by an increase in the expression of miR-142-3p and a decrease in sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) expression. Overexpression of MALAT1 inhibited OGD/R-induced cell necrosis and apoptosis and promoted cell proliferation. Overexpression of MALAT1 reduced the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, ROS and MDA and increased the activities of SOD and CAT in OGD/R-injured PC12 cells. MALAT1 negatively regulated the expression of miR-142-3p, and SIRT1 was a target gene of miR-142-3p. The expression of SIRT1 induced by MALAT1 overexpression was obviously abolished by the introduction of miR-142-3p mimic. MALAT1 overexpression can exert its role by regulating the miR-142-3p/SIRT1 axis. Besides, overexpression of MALAT1 improved cerebral infarction, neurological impairment and cognitive dysfunction in CI/R mice. CONCLUSION MALAT1 mediates SIRT1 expression by acting as a ceRNA of miR-142-3p to improve CI/R injury.

Effect of the Ketone Body, D-β-Hydroxybutyrate, on Sirtuin2-Mediated Regulation of Mitochondrial Quality Control and the Autophagy-Lysosomal Pathway. Cells 2023; 12:cells12030486. [PMID: 36766827 PMCID: PMC9914182 DOI: 10.3390/cells12030486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial activity and quality control are essential for neuronal homeostasis as neurons rely on glucose oxidative metabolism. The ketone body, D-β-hydroxybutyrate (D-BHB), is metabolized to acetyl-CoA in brain mitochondria and used as an energy fuel alternative to glucose. We have previously reported that D-BHB sustains ATP production and stimulates the autophagic flux under glucose deprivation in neurons; however, the effects of D-BHB on mitochondrial turnover under physiological conditions are still unknown. Sirtuins (SIRTs) are NAD+-activated protein deacetylases involved in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy through the activation of transcription factors FOXO1, FOXO3a, TFEB and PGC1α coactivator. Here, we aimed to investigate the effect of D-BHB on mitochondrial turnover in cultured neurons and the mechanisms involved. Results show that D-BHB increased mitochondrial membrane potential and regulated the NAD+/NADH ratio. D-BHB enhanced FOXO1, FOXO3a and PGC1α nuclear levels in an SIRT2-dependent manner and stimulated autophagy, mitophagy and mitochondrial biogenesis. These effects increased neuronal resistance to energy stress. D-BHB also stimulated the autophagic-lysosomal pathway through AMPK activation and TFEB-mediated lysosomal biogenesis. Upregulation of SIRT2, FOXOs, PGC1α and TFEB was confirmed in the brain of ketogenic diet (KD)-treated mice. Altogether, the results identify SIRT2, for the first time, as a target of D-BHB in neurons, which is involved in the regulation of autophagy/mitophagy and mitochondrial quality control.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke accompanies oxidative stress and cell death in the cerebral tissue. The microRNA miR-34a plays a pivotal role in this molecular pathology. This study presents the rational repositioning of aminoglycosidic antibiotics as miR-34a antagonists in order to assess their efficiency in protecting the PC12 stroke model cells from oxidative stress occurring under cerebral ischemic conditions. A library of 29 amino-sugar compounds were screened against anticipated structural models of miR-34a through molecular docking. MiR-ligand interactions were mechanistically studied by molecular dynamics simulations and free-energy calculations. Cultured PC12 cells were treated by H2O2 alone or in combination with gentamycin and neomycin as selected drugs. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and annexin V-FITC/propidium iodate (PI) double staining assays, respectively. The expression levels of key factors involved in cell proliferation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in treated PC12 cells were measured through a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and flow cytometric annexin V-FITC/PI double staining assays. A stable and energetically favorable binding was observed for miR-34a with gentamycin and neomycin. Gentamycin pretreatments followed by H2O2 oxidative injury led to increased cell viability and protected PC12 cells against H2O2-induced apoptotic events. This study will help in further understanding how the suppression of miR-34a in neural tissue affects the cell viability upon stroke.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are nicotine adenine dinucleotide(+)-dependent histone deacetylases regulating critical signaling pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and are involved in numerous biological processes. Currently, seven mammalian homologs of yeast Sir2 named SIRT1 to SIRT7 have been identified. Increasing evidence has suggested the vital roles of seven members of the SIRT family in health and disease conditions. Notably, this protein family plays a variety of important roles in cellular biology such as inflammation, metabolism, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, etc., thus, it is considered a potential therapeutic target for different kinds of pathologies including cancer, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and other conditions. Moreover, identification of SIRT modulators and exploring the functions of these different modulators have prompted increased efforts to discover new small molecules, which can modify SIRT activity. Furthermore, several randomized controlled trials have indicated that different interventions might affect the expression of SIRT protein in human samples, and supplementation of SIRT modulators might have diverse impact on physiological function in different participants. In this review, we introduce the history and structure of the SIRT protein family, discuss the molecular mechanisms and biological functions of seven members of the SIRT protein family, elaborate on the regulatory roles of SIRTs in human disease, summarize SIRT inhibitors and activators, and review related clinical studies.

Abstract
Aim Autophagy is a catabolic process, which plays a pivotal role in neuronal homeostases. Sirtuin-1 (Sirt1, Silent information regulator family protein 1) is a protein deacetylase that is activated by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), is also influenced by starvation and stress response similar to autophagy. Sirt1 is necessary for the induction of autophagy and is critical for neuronal survival in neurodegeneration. The present study investigates the role of Sirt1/autophagy signaling and its possible involvement in neuronal cell death in the brains of cerebral ischemia (CI) patients. Patients and methods Autopsied brain tissues from three healthy subjects and ten CI patients were obtained from National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences (NIMHANS); Bangalore, India. Western blotting and immunostaining were performed to assess the expression changes in Sirt1, autophagy mediators including Beclin-1, autophagy-related (Atg) proteins-3, 5, 7, 12-5, microtubule-associated protein-1A light chain3 (Lc3-I/II), and caspase-3 in stroke patients. Results Our study showed that, in stroke patients, expression of Sirt1, Beclin-1, Atg-3, 5, 7, 12-5, and Lc3-II/I were upregulated. Further, our immunohistochemistry results show increased immunoreactivity of Sirt1, Beclin-1, Atg-7, Lc3-I/II, and cleaved caspase-3 in stroke brains. Conclusion The present data suggesting a role for Sirt1/autophagy signaling in regulating neuronal cell survival in CI.

Abstract
AIMS Hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI) often results in cognitive impairments. Herein, we investigated the roles of ferroptosis in HIBI and the underlying signaling pathways. METHODS Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) or resveratrol (Res) treatments were administered intracerebroventricularly 30 min before HIBI in 7-day-old rats. Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) expression, malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration, iron content, mitochondrial morphology, and the expression of silent information regulator factor 2-related enzyme 1 (SIRT1) and nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) were measured after HIBI. Additionally, the weight ratio of left/right hemisphere, brain morphology, Nissl staining, and the Morris water maze test were conducted to estimate brain damage. RESULTS At 24-h post-HIBI, GPx4 expression was decreased, and MDA concentration and iron content were increased in the hippocampus. HIBI led to mitochondrial atrophy, brain atrophy/damage, and resultant learning and memory impairments, which were alleviated by Fer-1-mediated inhibition of ferroptosis. Furthermore, Res-mediated SIRT1 upregulation increased Nrf2 and GPx4 expression, thereby attenuating ferroptosis, reducing brain atrophy/damage, and improving learning and memory abilities. CONCLUSION The results demonstrated that during HIBI, ferroptosis occurs via the SIRT1/Nrf2/GPx4 signaling pathway, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target for inhibiting ferroptosis and ameliorating HIBI-induced cognitive impairments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders in childhood. However, classical antiepileptic drugs are linked with drug toxicity and cognitive function impairment in children. Hence, it is essential to develop a novel therapy to solve this problem. Currently, studies indicate regulating the nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-mediated ferroptosis pathway represents a potential advanced therapy for seizures. Hence, the present study aimed to explore whether quercetin, a natural polyphenol, could alleviate seizure-induced neuron death and preserve cognitive function by inhibiting Nrf2-mediated ferroptosis. METHODS Kainic acid-induced epileptic mice model, morris water maze (MWM) test, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assays, western blotting analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR), immunofluorescence staining, and RNA sequencing analysis were employed to explore the potential mechanisms by which quercetin exerts protective effects on seizure-induced neuron death in kainic acid-induced epileptic mice model and glutamate-induced HT22 neuronal cell death. RESULTS Our findings suggested the association between the Nrf2-mediated ferroptosis pathway and seizures in a clinical setting. Quercetin pretreatment alleviates seizure-like behaviors and cognitive impairment in KA-induced epileptic mice. Additionally, in vitro, co-treatment with quercetin effectively exerts neuroprotective effects in glutamate-induced HT22 neuronal cell death. These protective effects were also closely linked to regulating the Nrf2-mediated ferroptosis pathway. Furthermore, bioinformatic profiling revealed that the SIRT1/Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway plays a crucial role in the Glu-induced HT22 cell death pretreated with quercetin. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicated that quercetin effectively protects against seizure-induced neuron death in vivo and in vitro and alleviates cognitive function impairment via the SIRT1/Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway.

Abstract
The redox coenzymes viz., oxidized β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) by way of generation of optimal reducing power and cellular energy currency (ATP), control a staggering array of metabolic reactions. The prominent cellular contenders for NAD+ utilization, inter alia, are sirtuins (SIRTs) and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1), which have been significantly implicated in ischemic stroke (IS) pathogenesis. NAD+ and FAD are also two crucial epigenetic enzyme-required metabolites mediating histone deacetylation and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation through SIRTs and PARP-1 respectively, and demethylation through FAD-mediated lysine specific demethylase activity. These enzymes and post-translational modifications impinge on the components of neurovascular unit, primarily neurons, and elicit diverse functional upshots in an ischemic brain. These could be circumstantially linked with attendant cognitive deficits and behavioral outcomes in post-stroke epoch. Parsing out the contribution of NAD+/FAD-synthesizing and utilizing enzymes towards epigenetic remodeling in IS setting, together with their cognitive and behavioral associations, combined with possible therapeutic implications will form the crux of this review.

Abstract
Silent information regulators, sirtuins (SIRTs), are a family of enzymes which take part in major posttranslational modifications of proteins and contribute to multiple cellular processes, including metabolic and energetic transformations, as well as regulation of the cell cycle. Recently, SIRTs have gained increased attention as the object of research because of their multidirectional activity and possible role in the complex pathomechanisms underlying human diseases. The aim of this study was to review a current literature evidence of SIRTs' role in the physiology and pathology of the central nervous system (CNS). SIRTs have been demonstrated to be crucial players in the crosstalk between neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and metabolic alterations. The elucidation of SIRTs' role in the background of various CNS diseases offers a chance to define relevant markers of their progression and promising candidates for novel therapeutic targets. Possible diagnostic and therapeutic implications from SIRTs-related investigations are discussed, as well as their future directions and associated challenges.

Natural Compounds for SIRT1-Mediated Oxidative Stress and Neuroinflammation in Stroke: A Potential Therapeutic Target in the Future. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:1949718.

Abstract
Stroke is a fatal cerebral vascular disease with a high mortality rate and substantial economic and social costs. ROS production and neuroinflammation have been implicated in both hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke and have the most critical effects on subsequent brain injury. SIRT1, a member of the sirtuin family, plays a crucial role in modulating a wide range of physiological processes, including apoptosis, DNA repair, inflammatory response, and oxidative stress. Targeting SIRT1 to reduce ROS and neuroinflammation might represent an emerging therapeutic target for stroke. Therefore, we conducted the present review to summarize the mechanisms of SIRT1-mediated oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in stroke. In addition, we provide a comprehensive introduction to the effect of compounds and natural drugs on SIRT1 signaling related to oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in stroke. We believe that our work will be helpful to further understand the critical role of the SIRT1 signaling pathway and will provide novel therapeutic potential for stroke treatment.

Abstract
Inflammation is a common complication of many chronic diseases. It includes inflammation of the parenchyma and vascular systems. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent histone deacetylase, which can directly participate in the suppression of inflammation. It can also regulate the activity of other proteins. Among them, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) signaling can be inhibited by deacetylating four lysine residues (55, 88, 90, and 177) in quiescent endothelial cells. HMGB1 is a ubiquitous nuclear protein, once translocated outside the cell, which can interact with various target cell receptors including the receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), toll-like receptor (TLR) 2, and TLR4 and stimulates the release of pro-inflammatory cyto-/chemokines. And SIRT1 has been reported to inhibit the activity of HMGB1. Both are related to the occurrence and development of inflammation and associated diseases but show an antagonistic relationship in controlling inflammation. Therefore, in this review, we introduce how this signaling axis regulates the emergence of inflammation-related responses and tumor occurrence, providing a new experimental perspective for future inflammation research. In addition, it explores diverse upstream regulators and some natural/synthetic activators of SIRT1 as a possible treatment for inflammatory responses and tumor occurrence which may encourage the development of new anti-inflammatory drugs. Meanwhile, this review also introduces the potential molecular mechanism of the SIRT1-HMGB1 pathway to improve inflammation, suggesting that SIRT1 and HMGB1 proteins may be potential targets for treating inflammation.

Abstract
Sirtuins perform an important effect on the neural cell fate following stroke. Several mechanisms that have been correlated with stroke are oxidative stress, apoptosis, necrosis and autophagy. Autophagy is usually regarded as unitary of the neural cell survival mechanisms. Recently, the importance of the sirtuins effect on autophagy by antioxidant agents for stroke treatment mentioned in various studies. One of these agents is melatonin. Melatonin can modulate autophagy by changing on sirtuin pathways. Melatonin and its metabolites adjust various sirtuins pathways related to apoptosis, proliferation, metastases, autophagy and inflammation in case of stroke. In this review, we will discuss about the modulation of autophagy by melatonin via sirtuins in stroke.

Abstract
Sirtuins are an evolutionarily conserved family of regulatory proteins that function in an NAD+ -dependent manner. The mammalian family of sirtuins is composed of seven histone deacetylase and ADP-ribosyltransferase proteins (SIRT1-SIRT7) that are found throughout the different cellular compartments of the cell. Sirtuins in the brain have received considerable attention in cognition due to their role in a plethora of metabolic and age-related diseases and their ability to induce neuroprotection. More recently, sirtuins have been shown to play a role in normal physiological cognitive function, and aberrant sirtuin function is seen in pathological cellular states. Sirtuins are believed to play a role in cognition through enhancing synaptic plasticity, influencing epigenetic regulation, and playing key roles in molecular pathways involved with oxidative stress affecting mitochondrial function. This review aims to discuss recent advances in the understanding of the role of mammalian sirtuins in cognitive function and the therapeutic potential of targeting sirtuins to ameliorate cognitive deficits in neurological disorders.

Abstract
There have been significant advances, particularly over the last 20 years, in the identification of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and their pathophysiological role in a wide range of disease states, particularly cancer and other chronic conditions characterized by excess inflammation and oxidative stress such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, obesity, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, liver and lung fibrosis. Such discoveries have potential therapeutic implications as a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underpinning the effects of ncRNAs on critical homeostatic control mechanisms and biochemical pathways might lead to the identification of novel druggable targets. In this context, increasing evidence suggests that several natural compounds can target ncRNAs at different levels and, consequently, influence processes involved in the onset and progression of disease states. The natural phenol resveratrol has been extensively studied for therapeutic purposes in view of its established anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, particularly in disease states such as cancer and cardiovascular disease that are associated with human aging. However, increasing in vitro and in vivo evidence also suggests that resveratrol can directly target various ncRNAs and that this mediates, at least in part, its potential therapeutic effects. This review critically appraises the available evidence regarding the resveratrol-mediated modulation of different ncRNAs in a wide range of disease states characterized by a pro-inflammatory state and oxidative stress, the potential therapeutic applications, and future research directions.

Activation of SIRT1 Alleviates Ferroptosis in the Early Brain Injury after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:9069825. [PMID: 35855863 PMCID: PMC9288286 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9069825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2022] [Revised: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 06/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Ferroptosis is a regulated cell death that characterizes the lethal lipid peroxidation and iron overload, which may contribute to early brain injury (EBI) pathogenesis after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Although Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a class III histone deacetylase, has been proved to have endogenous neuroprotective effects on the EBI following SAH, the role of SIRT1 in ferroptosis has not been studied. Hence, we designed the current study to determine the role of ferroptosis in the EBI and explore the correlation between SIRT1 and ferroptosis after SAH. The pathways of ferroptosis were examined after experimental SAH in vivo (prechiasmatic cistern injection mouse model) and in HT-22 cells stimulated by oxyhemoglobin (oxyHb) in vitro. Then, ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) was used further to determine the role of ferroptosis in EBI. Finally, we explored the correlation between SIRT1 and ferroptosis via regulating the expression of SIRT1 by resveratrol (RSV) and selisistat (SEL). Our results showed that ferroptosis was involved in the pathogenesis of EBI after SAH through multiple pathways, including acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4) activation, iron metabolism disturbance, and the downregulation of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1). Inhibition of ferroptosis by Fer-1 significantly alleviated oxidative stress-mediated brain injury. SIRT1 activation could suppress SAH-induced ferroptosis by upregulating the expression of GPX4 and FSP1. Therefore, ferroptosis could be a potential therapeutic target for SAH, and SIRT1 activation is a promising method to inhibit ferroptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mice with deletion of complex I subunit Ndufs4 develop mitochondrial encephalomyopathy resembling Leigh syndrome (LS). The metabolic derangement and underlying mechanisms of cardio-encephalomyopathy in LS remains incompletely understood. METHODS We performed echocardiography, electrophysiology, confocal microscopy, metabolic and molecular/morphometric analysis of the mice lacking Ndufs4. HEK293 cells, human iPS cells-derived cardiomyocytes and neurons were used to determine the mechanistic role of mitochondrial complex I deficiency. RESULTS LS mice develop severe cardiac bradyarrhythmia and diastolic dysfunction. Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPS-CMs) with Ndufs4 deletion recapitulate LS cardiomyopathy. Mechanistically, we demonstrate a direct link between complex I deficiency, decreased intracellular (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) NAD+ /NADH and bradyarrhythmia, mediated by hyperacetylation of the cardiac sodium channel NaV 1.5, particularly at K1479 site. Neuronal apoptosis in the cerebellar and midbrain regions in LS mice was associated with hyperacetylation of p53 and activation of microglia. Targeted metabolomics revealed increases in several amino acids and citric acid cycle intermediates, likely due to impairment of NAD+ -dependent dehydrogenases, and a substantial decrease in reduced Glutathione (GSH). Metabolic rescue by nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation increased intracellular NAD+ / NADH, restored metabolic derangement, reversed protein hyperacetylation through NAD+ -dependent Sirtuin deacetylase, and ameliorated cardiomyopathic phenotypes, concomitant with improvement of NaV 1.5 current and SERCA2a function measured by Ca2+ -transients. NR also attenuated neuronal apoptosis and microglial activation in the LS brain and human iPS-derived neurons with Ndufs4 deletion. CONCLUSIONS Our study reveals direct mechanistic explanations of the observed cardiac bradyarrhythmia, diastolic dysfunction and neuronal apoptosis in mouse and human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) models of LS.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms of blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption in the early stage after ischemic stroke are poorly understood. In the present study, we investigated the potential role of nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 1 (NMNAT1) in ischemia-induced BBB damage using an animal middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model of ischemic stroke. Recombinant human NMNAT1 (rh-NMNAT1) was administered intranasally and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) siRNA was administered by intracerebroventricular injection. Our results indicate that rh-NMNAT1 reduced infarct volume, improved functional outcome, and decreased BBB permeability in mice after ischemic stroke. Furthermore, rh-NMNAT1 prevented the loss of tight junction proteins (occludin and claudin-5) and reduced cell apoptosis in ischemic microvessels. NMNAT1-mediated BBB permeability was correlated with the elevation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)/NADH ratio and SIRT1 level in brain microvascular endothelial cells. In addition, rh-NMNAT1 treatment significantly decreased the levels of acetylated nuclear factor-κB, acetylated p53, and matrix metalloproteinase-9 in ischemic microvessels. Moreover, the protective effects of rh-NMNAT1 could be reversed by SIRT1 siRNA. In conclusion, these findings indicate that rh-NMNAT1 protects BBB integrity after cerebral ischemia via the NAD+/SIRT1 signaling pathway in brain microvascular endothelial cells. NMNAT1 may be a novel potential therapeutic target for reducing BBB disruption after ischemic stroke.

Cycloastragenol Confers Cerebral Protection after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage by Suppressing Oxidative Insults and Neuroinflammation via the SIRT1 Signaling Pathway. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:3099409.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is an acute cerebral vascular disease featured by oxidative insults and neuroinflammation. Cycloastragenol (CAG), the major active component of Astragalus radix, has a wide range of biological functions. However, the potential beneficial effects and the underlying molecular mechanisms of CAG on SAH remain obscure. In the current study, the cerebroprotective effects and mechanism of CAG on SAH were evaluated both in vivo and in vitro. Our results indicated that CAG significantly suppressed SAH-triggered oxidative insults, inflammatory mediators production, microglia activation, and the neutrophil infiltration in the brain. In addition, CAG improved neurological function and ameliorated neuronal apoptosis and degeneration after SAH. In vitro results also revealed the therapeutic effects of CAG on neurons and microglia co-culture system. Mechanistically, CAG treatment upregulated sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) expression, inhibited the levels of FoxO1, nuclear factor-kappa B, and p53 acetylation, and suppressed the subsequent oxidative, inflammatory, and apoptotic pathways. In contrast, inhibiting SIRT1 by pretreatment with Ex527 abrogated the protective actions of CAG both in vivo and in vitro models of SAH. Collectively, our findings indicated that CAG could be a promising and effective drug candidate for SAH.

Abstract
Stroke is one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide caused primarily by a thrombotic vascular occlusion that leads to cell death. To date, t-PA (tissue-type plasminogen activator) is the only thrombolytic therapy approved which targets fibrin as the main component of ischemic stroke thrombi. However, due to its highly restrictive criteria, t-PA is only administrated to less than 10% of all stroke patients. Furthermore, the research in neuroprotective agents has been extensive with no translational results from medical research to clinical practice up to now. Since we first described the key role of NETs (Neutrophil Extracellular Traps) in platelet-rich thrombosis, we asked, first, whether NETs participate in fibrin-rich thrombosis and, second, if NETs modulation could prevent neurological damage after stroke. To this goal, we have used the thromboembolic in situ stroke model which produces fibrin-rich thrombotic occlusion, and the permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery by ligature. Our results demonstrate that NETs do not have a predominant role in fibrin-rich thrombosis and, therefore, DNase-I lacks lytic effects on fibrin-rich thrombosis. Importantly, we have also found that NETs exert a deleterious effect in the acute phase of stroke in a platelet-TLR4 dependent manner and, subsequently, that its pharmacological modulation has a neuroprotective effect. Therefore, our data strongly support that the pharmacological modulation of NETs in the acute phase of stroke, could be a promising strategy to repair the brain damage in ischemic disease, independently of the type of thrombosis involved.

Sevoflurane Improves Hemorrhagic Shock and Resuscitation-Induced Cognitive Impairments and Mitochondrial Dysfunctions through SIRT1-Mediated Autophagy. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:9771743. [PMID: 35528522 PMCID: PMC9068312 DOI: 10.1155/2022/9771743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 02/10/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) induced by hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion (HSR) is the main cause of death following trauma. Previous studies indicated the neuroprotective effect of sevoflurane postconditioning (SP) in cerebral IRI. However, the mechanisms still remain elusive. Cerebral IRI models with SP were established by using HSR with C57BL/6 mice (male, 3-month-old) in vivo and by using oxygen glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) with HT22 cells in vitro. Postoperative cognition was evaluated by the Morris water maze, novel object recognition, and elevated plus maze tests. The role of SIRT1 was determined by using siRNA, a sensitive inhibitor (EX527), or an overexpression shRNA-GFP lentivirus. IRI caused significant disabilities of spatial learning and memory associated with enhanced cerebral infarct and neuronal apoptosis, which were effectively attenuated by SP. IRI also made a significant decrease of SIRT1 accompanied by oxidative stress, mitochondria dysfunction, and inactivated autophagy. SP or genetically overexpressing SIRT1 significantly suppressed defective autophagy, mitochondrial oxidative injury, and neuronal death caused by HSR or OGD/R. However, genetic suppression or pharmacological inhibition of SIRT1 significantly reversed the impact of SP treatment on mitochondrial DNA transcription ability and autophagy. Our results demonstrate that the loss of SIRT1 causes a sequential chain of mitochondrial dysfunction, defective autophagy, and neuronal apoptosis after IRI in the preclinical stroke models. Sevoflurane postconditioning treatment could effectively attenuate pathophysiological signatures induced by noxious stimuli, which maybe mediated by SIRT1.

Abstract
Dietary soy protein isolate (SPI) and the isoflavones daidzein and genistein have been shown to provide neuroprotection from stroke. However, the mechanisms remain uncertain. We sought to determine whether the addition of isoflavones to a diet containing caseinate (CAS) as the protein source would induce behavioral neuroprotection similar to that seen previously in rats fed SPI. Furthermore, we aimed to characterize the baseline and poststroke expression of mRNAs involved in pathways previously published as perhaps mediating soy-based neuroprotection from stroke and other markers of neuronal plasticity, oxidative stress, and inflammation. Adult male rats were fed a semipurified diet containing (1) sodium caseinate (CAS), (2) CAS plus daidzein and genistein (CAS+ISO), or (3) SPI for 2 weeks. A subset of rats was euthanized, and tissue was collected for quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Remaining rats underwent a middle cerebral artery occlusion to induce a stroke. Samples for qPCR were collected on day 3 poststroke. Rats fed SPI made fewer errors on the skilled ladder rung walking task after stroke compared to rats fed CAS (P < .05). Rats fed CAS+ISO were not different from rats fed CAS or SPI. Significant effects of diet were found at day 0 for Syp, Pparg, and Ywhae and at day 3 for Rtn4 expression. We concluded that the benefits of SPI are not solely attributable to daidzein and genistein.

AMPK inhibitor BML-275 induces neuroprotection through decreasing cyt c and AIF expression after transient brain ischemia. Bioorg Med Chem 2021; 52:116522. [PMID: 34837819 DOI: 10.1016/j.bmc.2021.116522] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2021] [Revised: 11/09/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Stroke is a major public health problem with an imperative need for a more effective and tolerated therapy. Neuroprotective therapy may be an effective therapeutic intervention for stroke. The morbidity and mortality of stroke-induced secondary brain injury is mainly caused by neuronal apoptosis, which can be executed in a caspase-dependent or apoptosis inducing factor (AIF)-dependent manner. As apoptosis is an energy-dependent process with a relative time delay, abnormal energy metabolism could be a significant and fundamental pathophysiological basis of stroke. To our knowledge, convincible evidences that AMPK inhibition exerts neuroprotection in cerebral ischemia injury via anti-apoptosis remain to be investigated. Accordingly, the aims of this study were to investigate the protective effects of AMPK inhibitor BML-275 on cerebral ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Cerebral ischemia was induced by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) in male C57BL/6 mice. The therapeutic effects of BML-275 were evaluated by infarct sizes, neurological scores and the proportion of apoptotic neurons after 24 h of reperfusion. The cell apoptosis markers cyt c and AIF were also evaluated. The results showed that intraperitoneally administration of BML-275 alleviate the cerebral infarction, neurological deficit and neuronal apoptosis induced by MCAO. BML-275 simultaneously induces anti-apoptosis and decreases the expression of cyt c and AIF. This study supports the hypothesis that anti-apoptosis is one of potential neuroprotective strategies for the treatment of stroke.

Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 29 Exacerbates Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Mice. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:6955628.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and apoptosis contribute to the progression of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Ubiquitin-specific protease 29 (USP29) is abundantly expressed in the brain and plays critical roles in regulating oxidative stress and cell apoptosis. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of USP29 in cerebral I/R injury. Neuron-specific USP29 knockout mice were generated and subjected to cerebral I/R surgery. For USP29 overexpression, mice were stereotactically injected with the adenoassociated virus serotype 9 vectors carrying USP29 for 4 weeks before cerebral I/R. And primary cortical neurons were isolated and exposed to oxygen glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) stimulation to imitate cerebral I/R injury in vitro. USP29 expression was elevated in the brain and primary cortical neurons upon I/R injury. Neuron-specific USP29 knockout significantly diminished, whereas USP29 overexpression aggravated cerebral I/R-induced oxidative stress, apoptosis, and neurological dysfunction in mice. In addition, OGD/R-induced oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis were also attenuated by USP29 silence but exacerbated by USP29 overexpression in vitro. Mechanistically, neuronal USP29 enhanced p53/miR-34a-mediated silent information regulator 1 downregulation and then promoted the acetylation and suppression of brain and muscle ARNT-like protein, thereby aggravating oxidative stress and apoptosis upon cerebral I/R injury. Our findings for the first time identify that USP29 upregulation during cerebral I/R may contribute to oxidative stress, neuronal apoptosis, and the progression of cerebral I/R injury and that inhibition of USP29 may help to develop novel therapeutic strategies to treat cerebral I/R injury.

Abstract
Mounting evidence has suggested that modulating microglia polarization from pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype to anti-inflammatory M2 state might be a potential therapeutic approach in the treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) injury. Our previous study has indicated that sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) could ameliorate early brain injury (EBI) in SAH by reducing oxidative damage and neuroinflammation. However, the effects of SIRT1 on microglial polarization and the underlying molecular mechanisms after SAH have not been fully illustrated. In the present study, we first observed that EX527, a potent selective SIRT1 inhibitor, enhanced microglial M1 polarization and nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation in microglia after SAH. Administration of SRT1720, an agonist of SIRT1, significantly enhanced SIRT1 expression, improved functional recovery, and ameliorated brain edema and neuronal death after SAH. Moreover, SRT1720 modulated the microglia polarization shift from the M1 phenotype and skewed toward the M2 phenotype. Additionally, SRT1720 significantly decreased acetylation of forkhead box protein O1, inhibited the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome signaling. In contrast, EX527 abated the upregulation of SIRT1 and reversed the inhibitory effects of SRT1720 on ROS-NLRP3 inflammasome activation and EBI. Similarly, in vitro, SRT1720 suppressed inflammatory response, oxidative damage, and neuronal degeneration, and improved cell viability in neurons and microglia co-culture system. These effects were associated with the suppression of ROS-NLRP3 inflammasome and stimulation of SIRT1 signaling, which could be abated by EX527. Altogether, these findings indicate that SRT1720, an SIRT1 agonist, can ameliorate EBI after SAH by shifting the microglial phenotype toward M2 via modulation of ROS-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome signaling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Astrocytes mediate brain defense against oxidative stress-induced injury. Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) has anti-oxidative stress effects in many diseases and is highly expressed in astrocytes. However, the neuroprotective effects of SIRT1 on astrocytes after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury are unclear. Therein, we aim to investigate the protective effect of SIRT1 on oxidative stress injury after ischemic stroke and possible mechanisms. METHODS We evaluated the effects of SIRT1 in astrocytes after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury using oxygen-glucose deprivation/recovery (OGD/R) in astrocytes in vitro and middle cerebral artery occlusion in rats in vivo. siRNA was injected intracerebroventricularly 24 h before Middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion(R) to silence SIRT1. RESULTS SIRT1 knockdown reduced cell viability, increased oxidative stress, and decreased PGC-1α, PPARγ, Nrf2, heme oxygenase (HO)-1, and NAD(P)H: oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1) expression. Moreover, SIRT1 knockdown also suppressed PGC-1α activity, the PGC-1α/PPARγ interaction, and the PPARγ/PPRE interaction. Similarly, in our in vivo experiments, SIRT1 overexpression and PGC-1α or PPARγ knockdown reduced PGC-1α, PPARγ, Nrf2, HO-1, and NQO1 protein expression and blocked the PGC-1α/PPARγ interaction. SIRT1 overexpression plus PPARγ knockdown inhibited the interaction of PPARγ with PPRE. Nrf2 knockdown blocked Nrf2 expression and downstream proteins induced by SIRT1 overexpression. CONCLUSION Overall, our data indicated that SIRT1 directly mediated the PGC-1α/PPARγ pathway in response to focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion-induced neurological deficit, providing insights into the treatment of focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Sirt1, a member of the sirtuins family, is a nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylase. It can be involved in the regulation of several processes including inflammatory response, apoptosis, oxidative stress, energy metabolism, and autophagy by exerting deacetylation. Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), a crucial nuclear transcription factor with specific DNA binding sequences, exists in almost all cells and plays a vital role in several biological processes involving inflammatory response, immune response, and apoptosis. As the hub of multiple intracellular signaling pathways, the activity of NF-κB is regulated by multiple factors. Sirt1 can both directly deacetylate NF-κB and indirectly through other molecules to inhibit its activity. We would like to emphasize that Sirt1/NF-κB is a signaling pathway that is closely related to neuroinflammation. Many recent studies have demonstrated the neuroprotective effects of Sirt1/NF-κB signaling pathway activation applied to the treatment of neurological related diseases. In this review, we focus on new advances in the neuroprotective effects of the Sirt1/NF-κB pathway. First, we briefly review Sirt1 and NF-κB, two key molecules of cellular metabolism. Next, we discuss the connection between NF-κB and neuroinflammation. In addition, we explore how Sirt1 regulates NF-κB in nerve cells and relevant evidence. Finally, we analyze the therapeutic effects of the Sirt1/NF-κB pathway in several common neuroinflammation-related diseases.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia is the second leading cause of death in the world and multimodal stroke therapy is needed. The ischemic stroke generally reduces the gene expression due to suppression of acetylation of histones H3 and H4. Histone deacetylases inhibitors have been shown to be effective in protecting the brain from ischemic damage. Histone deacetylases inhibitors induce neurogenesis and angiogenesis in damaged brain areas promoting functional recovery after cerebral ischemia. However, the role of different histone deacetylases isoforms in the survival and death of brain cells after stroke is still controversial. This review aims to analyze the data on the neuroprotective activity of nonspecific and selective histone deacetylase inhibitors in ischemic stroke.

Abstract
The beneficial role of prasugrel, a P2Y12 receptor blocker, in several neurointerventional procedures has been reviewed clinically. Beyond its antiplatelet capacity, the potential neuroprotective mechanisms of prasugrel are poorly addressed experimentally. Relevant to the imbalance between neuro-inflammation and neuroprotective pathways in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), our study evaluated the anti-ischemic potential of prasugrel treatment through tackling novel targets. Male Wistar rats were allocated into 2 sets; set 1 (I/R 60 min/3 days) to assess the neurological deficits/biochemical impact of prasugrel and set 2 (I/R 60 min/5 days) for evaluating short memory/morphological/immunoreactive changes. Each set comprised 4 groups designated as sham, sham + prasugrel, I/R, and I/R + prasugrel. Post-administration of prasugrel for 3 and 5 days reduced neurological deficit scores and improved the spontaneous activity/short term spatial memory using the Y-maze paradigm. On the molecular level, prasugrel turned off SUMO2/3-inhibitory kappa (Iκ)Bα, Ubc9 and nuclear factor kappa (NF-κ)B. Besides, it inhibited malondialdehyde (MDA) and inactivated astrocytes by downregulating the glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) hippocampal immune-expression. Conversely, it activated its target molecule cAMP, protein kinase (PK)A, and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) to enhance the brain-derived nuclear factor (BDNF) hippocampal content. Additionally, cAMP/PKA axis increased the hippocampal content of deacetylator silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) and the micro RNA (miR)-22 gene expression. The crosstalk between these paths partakes in preserving hippocampal cellularity. Accordingly, prasugrel, regardless inhibiting platelets activity, modulated other cellular components; viz., SUMO2/3-IκBα/Ubc9/NF-κB, cAMP/PKA related trajectories, CREB/BDNF and SIRT1/miR-22 signaling, besides inhibiting GFAP and MDA to signify its anti-ischemic potential.

Abstract
The opening of the permeability transition pore (mPTP) in mitochondria initiates cell death in numerous diseases. The regulation of mPTP by NAD(H) in the mitochondrial matrix is well established; however, the role of extramitochondrial (cytosolic) NAD(H) is still unclear. We studied the effect of added NADH and NAD+ on: (1) the Ca2+-retention capacity (CRC) of isolated rat liver, heart, and brain mitochondria; (2) the Ca2+-dependent mitochondrial swelling in media whose particles can (KCl) or cannot (sucrose) be extruded from the matrix by mitochondrial carriers; (3) the Ca2+-dependent mitochondrial depolarization and the release of entrapped calcein from mitochondria of permeabilized hepatocytes; and (4) the Ca2+-dependent mitochondrial depolarization and subsequent repolarization. NADH and NAD+ increased the CRC of liver, heart, and brain mitochondria 1.5-2.5 times, insignificantly affecting the rate of Ca2+-uptake and the free Ca2+ concentration in the medium. NAD(H) suppressed the Ca2+-dependent mitochondrial swelling both in KCl- and sucrose-based media but did not induce the contraction and repolarization of swollen mitochondria. By contrast, EGTA caused mitochondrial repolarization in both media and the contraction in KCl-based medium only. NAD(H) delayed the Ca2+-dependent depolarization and the release of calcein from individual mitochondria in hepatocytes. These data unambiguously demonstrate the existence of an external NAD(H)-dependent site of mPTP regulation.

These proteins are involved in cell survival and death, replication, DNA repair, the cell cycle, and cell responses to stress and aging. HDAC/HAT balance in cells affects gene expression and cell signaling. There are very few studies on the effects of stroke on non-histone protein acetylation/deacetylation in brain cells. HDAC inhibitors have been shown to be effective in protecting the brain from ischemic damage. However, the role of different HDAC isoforms in the survival and death of brain cells after stroke is still controversial. HAT/HDAC activity depends on the acetylation site and the acetylation/deacetylation of the main proteins (c-Myc, E2F1, p53, ERK1/2, Akt) considered in this review, that are involved in the regulation of cell fate decisions. Our review aims to analyze the possible role of the acetylation/deacetylation of transcription factors and signaling proteins involved in the regulation of survival and death in cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
Stroke affects primarily aged and co-morbid people, aspects not properly considered to date. Since angiogenesis/vasculogenesis are key processes for stroke recovery, we purposed to determine how different co-morbidities affect the outcome and angiogenesis/vasculogenesis, using a rodent model of metabolic syndrome, and by dynamic enhanced-contrast imaging (DCE-MRI) to assess its non-invasive potential to determine these processes. Twenty/twenty-two month-old corpulent (JCR:LA-Cp/Cp), a model of metabolic syndrome and lean rats were used. After inducing the experimental ischemia by transient MCAO, angiogenesis was analyzed by histology, vasculogenesis by determination of endothelial progenitor cells in peripheral blood by flow cytometry and evaluating their pro-angiogenic properties in culture and the vascular function by DCE-MRI at 3, 7 and 28 days after tMCAO. Our results show an increased infarct volume, BBB damage and an impaired outcome in corpulent rats compared with their lean counterparts. Corpulent rats also displayed worse post-stroke angiogenesis/vasculogenesis, outcome that translated in an impaired vascular function determined by DCE-MRI. These data confirm that outcome and angiogenesis/vasculogenesis induced by stroke in old rats are negatively affected by the co-morbidities present in the corpulent genotype and also that DCE-MRI might be a technique useful for the non-invasive evaluation of vascular function and angiogenesis processes.
