Abstract
Intestinal ischemia‒reperfusion (IIR) injury is a common complication of surgery, but clear molecular insights and valuable therapeutic targets are lacking. Mitochondrial calcium overload is an early sign of various diseases and is considered a vital factor in ischemia‒reperfusion injury. The mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU), which is located on the inner mitochondrial membrane, is the primary mediator of calcium ion entry into the mitochondria. However, the specific mechanism of MCU in IIR injury remains to be clarified. In this study, we generated an IIR model using C57BL/6 mice and Caco-2 cells and found increases in the calcium levels and MCU expression following IIR injury. The specific inhibition of MCU markedly attenuated IIR injury. Moreover, MCU knockdown alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction by reducing oxidative stress and apoptosis. Mechanistically, MCU knockdown substantially reduced the translocation of Drp1 and thus its binding to Fis1 receptors, resulting in decreased mitochondrial fission. Taken together, our findings demonstrated that MCU is a novel upstream regulator of Drp1 in ischemia‒reperfusion and represents a predictive and therapeutic target for IIR.

Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 137:112526. [PMID: 38908088 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112526] [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: 03/12/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
In this study, we identified FOXP3 as a transcription factor for lncRNA SNHG1, which exerts a significant protective role against cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Through DNA-pull down experiments and ChIP analysis, we confirmed that FOXP3 could bind to the promoter of SNHG1. Luciferase reporter and RT-qPCR experiments validated that FOXP3 overexpression promoted SNHG1 expression in cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, in a model of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, FOXP3 expression was upregulated, particularly in cardiomyocytes. Functional assays demonstrated that FOXP3 overexpression inhibited cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, while FOXP3 knockdown held the opposite effect. Additionally, we revealed that lncRNA SNHG1 acted as a sponge for miR-182, miR-326, and miR-3918, thereby stabilizing FOXP3 mRNA in cardiomyocytes. The protective role of SNHG1 against cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was found to depend on the presence of FOXP3, forming a positive FOXP3/SNHG1 feedback axis. Moreover, we unveiled this positive FOXP3/SNHG1 feedback axis suppressed cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by negatively regulating Parkin-mediated mitophagy. These findings provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and offer potential therapeutic targets for related interventions.

Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 177:117004. [PMID: 38955084 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.117004] [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: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
β2 adrenergic receptor (β2AR) is a G-protein-coupled receptor involved in cardiac protection. In chronic heart failure (CHF), persistent sympathetic nervous system activation occurs, resulting in prolonged β2AR activation and subsequent receptor desensitization and downregulation. Notoginsenoside R1 (NGR1) has the functions of enhancing myocardial energy metabolism and mitigating myocardial fibrosis. The mechanisms of NGR1 against ischemic heart failure are unclear. A left anterior descending (LAD) artery ligation procedure was performed on C57BL/6 J mice for four weeks. From the 4th week onwards, they were treated with various doses (3, 10, 30 mg/kg/day) of NGR1. Subsequently, the impacts of NGR1 on ischemic heart failure were evaluated by assessing cardiac function, morphological changes in cardiac tissue, and the expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and beta-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC). H9c2 cells were protected by NGR1 when exposed to OGD/R conditions. H9c2 cells were likewise protected from OGD/R damage by NGR1. Furthermore, NGR1 increased β2AR levels and decreased β2AR ubiquitination. Mechanistic studies revealed that NGR1 enhanced MDM2 protein stability and increased the expression of MDM2 and β-arrestin2 while inhibiting their interaction. Additionally, under conditions produced by OGD/R, the protective benefits of NGR1 on H9c2 cells were attenuated upon administration of the MDM2 inhibitor SP141. According to these findings, NGR1 impedes the interplay between β-arrestin2 and MDM2, thereby preventing the ubiquitination and degradation of β2AR to improve CHF.

Abstract
Ovarian aging reduced the quality of oocytes, resulting in age-related female infertility. It is reported that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy can improve age-related ovarian function decline and the success rate of in vitro maturation (IVM) in assisted reproductive therapy. In order to investigate the effectiveness and mechanisms of MSCs to enhance oocyte quality of cumulus oocyte complexes (COCs) in advanced age, this study focus on the respective functional improvement of oocytes and granulosa cells (GCs) from aging mice and further to explore and verify the possible mechanisms. Here, we studied a popular but significant protein of follicular development, Forkhead box O-3a (FOXO3a), which is a transcription factor that mediates a variety of cellular processes, but the functions of which in regulating oocyte quality in MSCs therapy still remain inconclusive. In this study, the RNA-seq data of metaphase II (MII) oocytes and GCs isolated from COCs confirmed that, GCs of immature follicles show the most potential to be the targeted cells of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) by FOXO3a signaling pathway. Furthermore, we demonstrated the effectiveness of BMSCs co-culture with aging COCs to enhance oocyte quality and found its mechanism to function via ameliorating the biological function of GCs by alleviating FOXO3a levels. These results provide significant fundamental research on MSCs therapy on ovarian aging, as well as offering guidance for raising the success rate of assisted reproductive technology such IVM in clinical and non-clinical settings.

Poult Sci 2024; 103:103839.

Abstract
Duck hepatitis A virus 1 (DHAV-1) is the primary cause of duck viral hepatitis, leading to sudden mortality in ducklings and significant economic losses in the duck industry. However, little is known about how DHAV-1 affects duckling liver at the molecular level. We conducted an analysis comparing the expression patterns of mRNAs and miRNAs in DHAV-1-infected duckling livers to understand the underlying mechanisms and dynamic changes. We identified 6,818 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEGs) and 144 differentially expressed microRNAs (DEMs) during DHAV-1 infection. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs and miRNA target genes using gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) revealed their potential involvement in innate antiviral immunity, mitophagy, and pyroptosis. We constructed coexpression networks of mRNA-miRNA interactions and confirmed key DEMs (novel-mir333, novel-mir288, novel-mir197, and novel-mir71) using RT-qPCR. Further investigation demonstrated that DHAV-1 activates the RLRs signaling pathway, disrupts mitophagy, and induces pyroptosis. In conclusion, DHAV-1-induced antiviral immunity is closely linked to mitophagy, suggesting it could be a promising therapeutic target.

Abstract
The silencing regulatory factor 2-like protein 3 (SIRT3) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) dependent deacetylase located primarily in the mitochondria. This protein plays an important role in oxidative stress, energy metabolism, and autophagy in multicellular organisms. Autophagy (macroautophagy) is primarily a cytoprotective mechanism necessary for intracellular homeostasis and the synthesis, degradation, and recycling of cellular products. Autophagy can influence the progression of several neural, cardiac, hepatic, and renal diseases and can also contribute to the development of fibrosis, diabetes, and many types of cancer. Recent studies have shown that SIRT3 has an important role in regulating autophagy. Therefore in this study, we aimed to perform a literature review to summarize the role of SIRT3 in the regulation of cellular autophagy. The findings of this study could be used to identify new drug targets for SIRT3-related diseases. Methods: A comprehensive literature review of the mechanism involved behind SIRT3 and autophagy-related diseases was performed. Relevant literature published in Pubmed and Web of Science up to July 2023 was identified using the keywords "silencing regulatory factor 2-like protein 3", "SIRT3" and "autophagy".

Abstract
Mitochondria, the most crucial energy-generating organelles in eukaryotic cells, play a pivotal role in regulating energy metabolism. However, their significance extends beyond this, as they are also indispensable in vital life processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, immune responses, and redox balance. In response to various physiological signals or external stimuli, a sophisticated mitochondrial quality control (MQC) mechanism has evolved, encompassing key processes like mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics, and mitophagy, which have garnered increasing attention from researchers to unveil their specific molecular mechanisms. In this review, we present a comprehensive summary of the primary mechanisms and functions of key regulators involved in major components of MQC. Furthermore, the critical physiological functions regulated by MQC and its diverse roles in the progression of various systemic diseases have been described in detail. We also discuss agonists or antagonists targeting MQC, aiming to explore potential therapeutic and research prospects by enhancing MQC to stabilize mitochondrial function.

Signal Transduct Target Ther 2024; 9:133.

Abstract
Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is well known as a conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide+ (NAD+)-dependent deacetylase located in the mitochondria that may regulate oxidative stress, catabolism and ATP production. Accumulating evidence has recently revealed that SIRT3 plays its critical roles in cardiac fibrosis, myocardial fibrosis and even heart failure (HF), through its deacetylation modifications. Accordingly, discovery of SIRT3 activators and elucidating their underlying mechanisms of HF should be urgently needed. Herein, we identified a new small-molecule activator of SIRT3 (named 2-APQC) by the structure-based drug designing strategy. 2-APQC was shown to alleviate isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiac hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis in vitro and in vivo rat models. Importantly, in SIRT3 knockout mice, 2-APQC could not relieve HF, suggesting that 2-APQC is dependent on SIRT3 for its protective role. Mechanically, 2-APQC was found to inhibit the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6K), c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/ small mother against decapentaplegic 3 (Smad3) pathways to improve ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis. Based upon RNA-seq analyses, we demonstrated that SIRT3-pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase 1 (PYCR1) axis was closely assoiated with HF. By activating PYCR1, 2-APQC was shown to enhance mitochondrial proline metabolism, inhibited reactive oxygen species (ROS)-p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) pathway and thereby protecting against ISO-induced mitochondrialoxidative damage. Moreover, activation of SIRT3 by 2-APQC could facilitate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)-Parkin axis to inhibit ISO-induced necrosis. Together, our results demonstrate that 2-APQC is a targeted SIRT3 activator that alleviates myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis by regulating mitochondrial homeostasis, which may provide a new clue on exploiting a promising drug candidate for the future HF therapeutics.

Abstract
Heart failure poses a significant threat to global public health within the realm of cardiovascular diseases. Its pathological progression involves various alterations in cardiomyocytes, among which autophagy, a crucial intracellular degradation mechanism, plays a pivotal role. Autophagy facilitates the breakdown of damaged organelles and proteins, thereby maintaining cellular homeostasis. In the context of heart failure, autophagy coexists with apoptosis and necrosis, influencing myocardial hypertrophy and ventricular remodeling. However, its impact on heart failure manifests a dual nature: moderate autophagy aids in cardiac repair, whereas excessive autophagy may exacerbate ventricular remodeling and cell demise. This review delves into the fundamental biology of autophagy, elucidating its involvement in the pathological cascade of heart failure and its correlation with cardiac hypertrophy and ventricular remodeling. Furthermore, an analysis of the interplay between autophagy regulatory factors and heart failure sheds light on the potential therapeutic implications of autophagy in the prevention and management of heart failure. This exploration provides a theoretical foundation for novel treatment strategies in combating heart failure.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IIRI) is a serious disease with high morbidity and mortality. This study aims to investigate the potential regulatory mechanisms involving protein arginine methyltransferase 6 (PRMT6), Forkhead box O3a (FoxO3a), and Parkin in IIRI and elucidate their roles in mediating cell apoptosis. The IIRI animal model was established and confirmed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. Oxygen-glucose deprivation and reperfusion (OGD/R) cell model was established to mimic ischemic injury in vitro . Transient transfection was used to overexpress or knock down genes. Cell death or apoptosis was assessed by propidium iodide staining, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay, and flow cytometry. The expression of proteins was detected by western blot. The histopathology observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining suggested that the IIRI animal model was successfully established. Our findings revealed that IIRI resulted in increased Bax and decreased Bcl-2 levels. In vitro experiments showed that overexpression of Parkin decreased OGD/R injury and suppressed elevation of Bax/Bcl-2. PRMT6 regulated the methylation level of FoxO3a. Moreover, FoxO3a directly binds to Parkin, and FoxO3a overexpression reduced OGD/R-induced cell death and regulation of Parkin. Overexpression of PRMT6 can attenuate the downregulation of Parkin and elevation of Bax/Bcl-2 caused by OGD/R. Knockdown of PRMT6 promoted apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cells of OGD/R group, while PRMT6 overexpression exhibited the opposite effect. Notably, the levels of PRMT6, FoxO3a, and Parkin were decreased in IIRI mouse intestinal tissue. Knocking out PRMT6 causes a significant decrease in the lifespan of mice. Altogether, our results demonstrated that PRMT6 upregulated the expression of Parkin by regulating FoxO3a methylation level, attenuating the apoptosis induced by IIRI.

Abstract
Rap1 GTPase-activating protein (Rap1GAP) is an important tumor suppressor. The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of Rap1GAP in myocardial infarction (MI) and its potential mechanism. Left anterior descending coronary artery ligation was performed on cardiac-specific Rap1GAP conditional knockout (Rap1GAP-CKO) mice and control mice with MI. Seven days after MI, Rap1GAP expression in the hearts of control mice peaked, the expression of proapoptotic markers (Bax and cleaved caspase-3) increased, the expression of antiapoptotic factors (Bcl-2) decreased, and the expression of the inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α increased; thus, apoptosis occurred, inflammation, infarct size, and left ventricular dysfunction increased, while the heart changes caused by MI were alleviated in Rap1GAP-CKO mice. Mouse heart tissue was obtained for transcriptome sequencing, and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to analyze Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways. We found that Rap1GAP was associated with the AMPK and NF-κB signaling pathways and that Rap1GAP inhibited AMPK/SIRT1 and activated the NF-κB signaling pathway in model animals. Similar results were observed in primary rat myocardial cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) to induce ischemia and hypoxia. Activating AMPK with the AMPK activator 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside (AICAR) reversed the damage caused by Rap1GAP overexpression in cardiomyocytes. In addition, the coimmunoprecipitation results showed that exogenous Rap1GAP interacted with AMPK. Rap1GAP was verified to regulate the AMPK SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway and exacerbate the damage to myocardial cells caused by ischemia and hypoxia. In conclusion, our results suggest that Rap1GAP promotes MI by modulating the AMPK/SIRT1/NF-κB signaling pathway and that Rap1GAP may be a therapeutic target for MI treatment in the future.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) is a common complication of diabetes. Previous studies have implicated that mitochondrial dysfunction plays a role in the development of PDN, but its pathogenesis and mechanism have not been fully investigated. METHODS In this study, we used high-fat diet/low-dose streptozotocin-induced rats as a model of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Behavioral testing, whole-cell patch-clamp recordings of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons, and complex sensory nerve conduction velocity studies were used to assess peripheral neuropathy. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), ATP, tissue reactive oxygen species, and transmission electron microscopy were used to evaluate the function and morphology of mitochondria in DRG. Real-time PCR, western blot, and immunofluorescence were performed to investigate the mechanism. RESULTS We found that damaged mitochondria were accumulated and mitophagy was inhibited in PDN rats. The expression of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), which is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase in mitochondria, was inhibited. Overexpression of SIRT3 in DRG neurons by intrathecally administered LV-SIRT3 lentivirus ameliorated neurological and mitochondrial dysfunctions. This was evidenced by the reversal of allodynia and nociceptor hyperexcitability, as well as the restoration of MMP and ATP levels. Overexpression of SIRT3 restored the inhibited mitophagy by activating the FoxO3a-PINK1-Parkin signaling pathway. The effects of SIRT3 overexpression, including the reversal of allodynia and nociceptor hyperexcitability, the improvement of impaired mitochondria and mitophagy, and the restoration of PINK1 and Parkin expression, were counteracted when FoxO3a siRNA was intrathecally injected. CONCLUSION These results showed that SIRT3 overexpression ameliorates PDN via activation of FoxO3a-PINK1-Parkin-mediated mitophagy, suggesting that SIRT3 may become an encouraging therapeutic strategy for PDN.

Abstract
With the increase in the age of laying chickens, the aging of follicles is accelerated, and the reproductive ability is decreased. Increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial malfunction are indispensable causes of ovarian aging. In this study, the physiological condition of prehierarchical small white follicles (SWFs) was compared between D280 high-producing chickens and D580 aging chickens, and the effect of a plant-derived flavonoid nobiletin (Nob), a natural antioxidant, on senescence of SWFs granulosa cells (SWF-GCs) was investigated. The results showed that Nob treatment activated cell autophagy by activating the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) pathways in D-galactose (D-gal)-generated senescent SWF-GCs, restoring the expression of proliferation-related mRNAs and proteins. In addition, the expression of inflammation-related protein NF-κB was significantly enhanced in aging GCs that were induced by D-gal. Nob supplementation significantly increased the antioxidant capacity and decreased the expression of several genes associated with cell apoptosis. Furthermore, Nob promoted activation of PINK1 and Parkin pathways for mitophagy and alleviated mitochondrial edema. Either the AMPK inhibitor dorsomorphin (Compound C) or SIRT1 inhibitor selisistat (EX-527) attenuated the effect of Nob on mitophagy. The protective effect of Nob on natural aging, GC proliferation, and elimination of the beneficial impact on energy regulation of naturally aging ovaries was diminished by inhibition of Nob-mediated autophagy. These data suggest that Nob treatment increases the expression of mitophagy-related proteins (PINK1 and Parkin) via the AMPK/SIRT1 pathways to prevent ovarian aging in the laying chickens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been extensively investigated in the field of cancer, among which, lncRNA ladybird homeobox 2-antisense RNA 1 (LBX2-AS1) has been demonstrated to exert carcinogenic effects on a variety of malignancies. However, the biological functions of LBX2-AS1 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) have not been explicitly elucidated. METHODS Arraystar lncRNA chip and qRT-PCR verify the expression of LncRNA LBX2-AS1 in ccRCC. CCK-8 assay and cell cloning assay were used to assess the proliferative capacity of ccRCC cells. Migration abilities were quantified by scratch assay and transwell assay. Potential molecular signaling pathways were determined by high-throughput whole transcriptomics analysis. WB analysis was performed to validate the relationship between LBX2-AS1 and key molecules of mitophagy pathway. The effect of LBX2-AS1 on mitophagy was observed by laser confocal microscopy. Rescue experiments further validated the role of downstream gene FOXO3A in the LBX2-AS1 signaling pathway. Finally, the authentic effect of LBX2-AS1 was verified in vivo. RESULTS LncRNA LBX2-AS1 was over expressed in ccRCC tissues and could enhance the proliferation and migration of ccRCC cells. Autophagic pathway was identified as a possible mechanism involved in the oncogenic effect of LBX2-AS1. Mitophagy levels were observed in LBX2-AS1 low-expressing cells through laser confocal microscopy. Knockdown of LBX2-AS1 significantly elevated mitophagy levels as observed using laser confocal microscopy and led to FOXOA3 decreasing in and BNIP3L and LC3 enrichment. Meanwhile, LBX2-AS1 knocking down dampened the proliferation of ccRCC cells in vivo.

Abstract
Aging results in deterioration of body functions and, ultimately, death. miRNAs contribute to the regulation of aging. The aim of this study was to explore the contribution of miRNAs to aging and senescence-related changes in gene expression. The expression changes of miRNAs in the blood of people and animal samples collected from different age subjects were examined using Affymetrix miRNA 4.0 microarray and qRT-PCR. MTT assay and flow cytometry were used to examine the effect of miR-23a on cell functions in WI-38 cells. The expression levels of 48 miRNAs, including miR-23a, miR-21, and miR-100, in the blood samples were higher in the middle-aged group than in the young or elderly group. Animal studies further suggested that the expression of miR-23a increased with age. In addition, upregulation of miR-23a dramatically suppressed the cell proliferation and arrested the WI-38 cell cycle in vitro. FOXO3a has been identified as a target gene of miR-23a. MiR-23a downregulated the expression of FOXO3a in WI-38 cells. MiRNAs have different expression levels in different age groups. miR-23a could suppress cell proliferation and arrest the cell cycle in WI-38 cells, which elucidated the mechanism through which miR-23a exerts pivotal role in WI-38 cells by targeting FOXO3a.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhein, which has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory response properties, is a beneficial treatment for different pathologies. However, the mechanism by which rhein protects against myocardial ischemic injury is poorly understood. METHODS AND RESULTS To establish an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) rat model, we performed left anterior descending (LAD) ligation. Sprague‒Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham, AMI, AMI + rhein (AMI + R), and AMI + mitochondrial fission inhibitor (AMI + M). The extent of myocardial injury was evaluated by TTC staining, serum myocardial injury markers, and HE and Masson staining. Cardiac mitochondria ultrastructure was visualized by transmission electron microscopy. TUNEL assay and flow cytometry analysis were used to estimate cell apoptosis. Protein expression levels were measured by Western blotting. In vitro, the efficacy of rhein was assessed in H9c2 cells under hypoxic condition. Our results revealed that rats with AMI exhibited increased infarct size and indicators of myocardial damage, along with activation of Drp1-dependent mitochondrial fission, decreased mitophagy and increased apoptosis rates. However, pretreatment with rhein significantly reversed these effects and demonstrated similar efficacy to Mdivi-1. Furthermore, rhein pretreatment protected against myocardial ischemic injury by inhibiting mitochondrial fission, as evidenced by decreased Drp1 expression. It also enhanced mitophagy, as indicated by increased expression of Beclin1, Pink1 and Parkin, an increased LC3-II/LC3-I ratio and increased formation of autolysosomes. Additionally, rhein pretreatment mitigated apoptosis in AMI. These results were also confirmed in vitro in H9c2 cells. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that rhein pretreatment exerts cardioprotective effects against myocardial ischemic injury via the Drp1/Pink1/Parkin pathway.

Abstract
Dysregulation of mitochondrial homeostasis is common to all types of cardiovascular diseases. SIRT3 regulates apoptosis and autophagy, material and energy metabolism, mitochondrial oxidative stress, inflammation, and fibrosis. As an important mediator and node in the network of mechanisms, SIRT3 is essential to many activities. This review explains how SIRT3 regulates mitochondrial homeostasis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle to treat common cardiovascular diseases. A novel description of the impact of lifestyle factors on SIRT3 expression from the angles of nutrition, exercise, and temperature is provided.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dynamics homeostasis is sustained by continuous and balanced fission and fusion, which are determinants of morphology, abundance, biogenesis and mitophagy of mitochondria. Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1), as the only inner mitochondrial membrane fusion protein, plays a key role in stabilizing mitochondrial dynamics. The disturbance of mitochondrial dynamics contributes to the pathophysiological progress of cardiovascular disorders, which are the main cause of death worldwide in recent decades and result in tremendous social burden. In this review, we describe the latest findings regarding OPA1 and its role in mitochondrial fusion. We summarize the post-translational modifications (PTMs) for OPA1 and its regulatory role in mitochondrial dynamics. Then the diverse cell fates caused by OPA1 expression during cardiovascular disorders are discussed. Moreover, cardiovascular disorders (such as heart failure, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, cardiomyopathy and cardiac hypertrophy) relevant to OPA1-dependent mitochondrial dynamics imbalance have been detailed. Finally, we highlight the potential that targeting OPA1 to impact mitochondrial fusion may be used as a novel strategy against cardiovascular disorders.

Abstract
METTL3, an RNA methyltransferase enzyme, exerts therapeutic effects on various cardiovascular diseases. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) and subsequently cardiac fibrosis is linked to acute cardiomyocyte death or dysfunction induced by mitochondrial damage, particularly mitochondrial fission. Our research aims to elucidate the potential mechanisms underlying the therapeutic actions of METTL3 in MIRI, with focus on mitochondrial fission. When compared with Mettl3flox mice subjected to MIRI, Mettl3 cardiomyocyte knockout (Mettl3Cko) mice have reduced infarct size, decreased serum levels of myocardial injury-related factors, limited cardiac fibrosis, and preserved myocardial ultrastructure and contractile/relaxation capacity. The cardioprotective actions of Mettl3 knockout were associated with reduced inflammatory responses, decreased myocardial neutrophil infiltration, and suppression of cardiomyocyte death. Through signaling pathway validation experiments and assays in cultured HL-1 cardiomyocytes exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation, we confirmed that Mettl3 deficiency interfere with DNA-PKcs phosphorylation, thereby blocking the downstream activation of Fis1 and preventing pathological mitochondrial fission. In conclusion, this study confirms that inhibition of METTL3 can alleviate myocardial cardiac fibrosis inflammation and prevent cardiomyocyte death under reperfusion injury conditions by disrupting DNA-PKcs/Fis1-dependent mitochondrial fission, ultimately improving cardiac function. These findings suggest new approaches for clinical intervention in patients with MIRI.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:582. [PMID: 38012584 PMCID: PMC10683361 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03603-2] [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: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) is one of the main reasons for poor prognosis in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM). To date, the mechanism remains unknown. As members of the silent information regulator 2 (SIR2) family, both SIRT1 and SIRT3 have been shown to play critical roles in protecting cardiomyocytes against MIRI, but their specific protective mechanism, their interact between the two and their relationship with ferroptosis are still unclear. Hence, in this study, we investigated the interact and specific mechanism of SIRT1 and SIRT3 in protecting cardiomyocytes against MIRI, as well as their association with ferroptosis. METHODS Bioinformatics analysis methods were used to explore the expression of SIRT1 and SIRT3 during MIRI, and then a cell hypoxia/reoxygenation injury model was constructed to verify the results. Then, Pearson correlation analysis was further used to explore the relationship between SIRT1 and SIRT3, whose roles in the regulation of ferroptosis were also analysed by gene knock down, Western Blotting and flow cytometry. Several biomarkers, such as Fe2+ concentration, lipid peroxidation marker MDA and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), were used to evaluate changes in ferroptosis. RESULTS The expression of SIRT1 and SIRT3 was abnormal during MIRI, and SIRT1 was significantly negatively correlated with SIRT3 in the SIRT1-SIRT3 axis. Further analysis revealed that the SIRT1-SIRT3 axis was closely correlated with ferroptosis, and its silencing effectively increase the incidence of ferroptosis. Furthermore, SIRT1-SIRT3 axis silencing was accompanied by changes in PINK1, Parkin, P62/SQSTM1 and LC3 expression. PINK1 silencing significantly increased the incidence of ferroptosis, while resveratrol (Res) and/or honokiol (HKL) effectively reversed the outcome. CONCLUSION Abnormalities in the SIRT1-SIRT3 axis promote MIRI through ferroptosis caused by silencing the PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway.

Sci Rep 2023; 13:20312. [PMID: 37985893 PMCID: PMC10662387 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-47686-5] [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: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) of the heart involves the activation of oxidative and proapoptotic pathways. Simultaneously Klotho protein presents anti-aging, antiapoptotic and antioxidative properties. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of Klotho protein on oxidative stress in hearts subjected to IRI. Isolated rat hearts perfused with the Langendorff method were subjected to ischemia, followed by reperfusion, in the presence or absence of recombinant rat Klotho protein. The factors involved in the activation of insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R)/phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signalling pathway were evaluated. IRI caused activation of the IGF1R (p = 0.0122)/PI3K (p = 0.0022) signalling, as compared to the aerobic control group. Infusion supply of Klotho protein during IRI significantly reduced the level of phospho-IGF1R (p = 0.0436), PI3K (p = 0.0218) and phospho-AKT (p = 0.0020). Transcriptional activity of forkhead box protein O3 (FOXO3) was reduced (p = 0.0207) in hearts subjected to IRI, compared to aerobic control. Administration of Klotho decreased phosphorylation of FOXO3 (p = 0.0355), and enhanced activity of glutathione peroxidase (p = 0.0452) and superoxide dismutase (p = 0.0060) in IRI + Klotho group. The levels of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) (p = 0.0480) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (p = 0.0460), and heart injury (p = 0.0005) were significantly increased in hearts from the IRI group in comparison to the aerobic group. Klotho reduced NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) (p = 0.0390), ROS/RNS (p = 0.0435) and H2O2 (p = 0.0392) levels, and heart damage (p = 0.0286) in the hearts subjected to IRI. In conclusion, Klotho contributed to the protection of the heart against IRI and oxidative stress via inhibition of the IGF1R/PI3K/AKT pathway, thus can be recognized as a novel cardiopreventive/cardioprotective agent.

[PMID: 38058391 PMCID: PMC10697129 DOI: 10.19102/icrm.2023.14111] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Obesity is a major risk factor for heart failure (HF). The relationship between adipokines and HF has been implicated in many previous studies and reviews. However, this review article summarizes the basic role of major adipokines, such as apelin, adiponectin, chemerin, resistin, retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4), vaspin, visfatin, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, nesfatin-1, progranulin, leptin, omentin-1, lipocalin-2, and follistatin-like 1 (FSTL1), in the pathogenesis of HF. Apelin is reduced in patients with HF and upregulated following favorable left ventricular (LV) remodeling. Higher levels of adiponectin have been found in patients with HF compared to in control patients. Also, high plasma chemerin levels are linked to a higher risk of HF. Serum resistin is related to the severity of HF and associated with a high risk for adverse cardiac events. Evidence indicates that RBP4 can contribute to inflammation and damage heart muscle cells, potentially leading to HF. Vaspin might stop the progression of cardiac degeneration, fibrosis, and HF according to experiments on rats with experimental isoproterenol-induced chronic HF. The serum concentrations of visfatin are significantly lower in patients with systolic HF. Leptin levels were found to be correlated with low LV mass and myocardial stiffness, both of which are significant risk factors for the development of HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Measuring serum omentin-1 levels appears to be a novel prognostic indicator for risk stratification in HF patients. Increased expression of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin in both systemic circulation and myocardium in clinical and experimental HF suggests that innate immune responses may contribute to the development of HF. FSTL1 was elevated in patients with HF with reduced ejection fraction and associated with an increase in the size of the left ventricle of the heart. However, other adipokines, such as plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, monocyte chemotactic protein-1, nesfatin-1, and progranulin, have not yet been studied for HF.

Abstract
Mitochondria are organelles that are able to adjust and respond to different stressors and metabolic needs within a cell, showcasing their plasticity and dynamic nature. These abilities allow them to effectively coordinate various cellular functions. Mitochondrial dynamics refers to the changing process of fission, fusion, mitophagy and transport, which is crucial for optimal function in signal transduction and metabolism. An imbalance in mitochondrial dynamics can disrupt mitochondrial function, leading to abnormal cellular fate, and a range of diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, metabolic diseases, cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Herein, we review the mechanism of mitochondrial dynamics, and its impacts on cellular function. We also delve into the changes that occur in mitochondrial dynamics during health and disease, and offer novel perspectives on how to target the modulation of mitochondrial dynamics.

Abstract
Sirtuins belong to the class III histone deacetylases and possess nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylase activity. They are involved in the regulation of multiple signaling pathways implicated in cardiovascular diseases. Autophagy is a crucial adaptive cellular response to stress stimuli. Mounting evidence suggests a strong correlation between Sirtuins and autophagy, potentially involving cross-regulation and crosstalk. Sirtuin-mediated autophagy plays a crucial regulatory role in some cardiovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, ischemia/reperfusion injury, hypertension, heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, and drug-induced myocardial damage. In this context, we summarize the research advancements pertaining to various Sirtuins involved in autophagy and the molecular mechanisms regulating autophagy. We also elucidate the biological function of Sirtuins across diverse cardiovascular diseases and further discuss the development of novel drugs that regulate Sirtuin-mediated autophagy.

Abstract
Adipose tissue is essential for maintaining systemic metabolic homeostasis through traditional metabolic regulation, endocrine crosstalk, and extracellular vesicle production. Adipose dysfunction is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The heart is a traditional pump organ. However, it has recently been recognized to coordinate interorgan cross-talk by providing peripheral signals known as cardiokines. These molecules include specific peptides, proteins, microRNAs and novel extracellular vesicle-carried cargoes. Current studies have shown that generalized cardiokine-mediated adipose regulation affects systemic metabolism. Cardiokines regulate lipolysis, adipogenesis, energy expenditure, thermogenesis during cold exposure and adipokine production. Moreover, cardiokines participate in pathological processes such as obesity, diabetes and ischemic heart injury. The underlying mechanisms of the cardiac-to-adipose axis mediated by cardiokines will be further discussed to provide potential therapeutic targets for metabolic diseases and support a new perspective on the need to correct adipose dysfunction after ischemic heart injury.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) causes excessive damage to the myocardium, including the epicardium. However, whether pluripotent stem cell-derived epicardial cells (EPs) can be a therapeutic approach for infarcted hearts remains unclear. Here, the authors report that intramyocardial injection of human embryonic stem cell-derived EPs (hEPs) at the acute phase of MI ameliorates functional worsening and scar formation in mouse hearts, concomitantly with enhanced cardiomyocyte survival, angiogenesis, and lymphangiogenesis. Mechanistically, hEPs suppress MI-induced infiltration and cytokine-release of inflammatory cells and promote reparative macrophage polarization. These effects are blocked by a type I interferon (IFN-I) receptor agonist RO8191. Moreover, intelectin 1 (ITLN1), abundantly secreted by hEPs, interacts with IFN-β and mimics the effects of hEP-conditioned medium in suppression of IFN-β-stimulated responses in macrophages and promotion of reparative macrophage polarization, whereas ITLN1 downregulation in hEPs cancels beneficial effects of hEPs in anti-inflammation, IFN-I response inhibition, and cardiac repair. Further, similar beneficial effects of hEPs are observed in a clinically relevant porcine model of reperfused MI, with no increases in the risk of hepatic, renal, and cardiac toxicity. Collectively, this study reveals hEPs as an inflammatory modulator in promoting infarct healing via a paracrine mechanism and provides a new therapeutic approach for infarcted hearts.

Free Radic Biol Med 2023; 205:1-12. [PMID: 37268048 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2023.05.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/30/2023] [Indexed: 06/04/2023]
Abstract
Electromagnetic radiation can cause injuries to both the structures and functions of the heart. No therapy is currently available to inhibit these untoward effects. Mitochondrial energetic damage and oxidative stress are drivers of electromagnetic radiation-induced cardiomyopathy (eRIC); however, the pathways that mediate these events are poorly defined. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) has been emerged as a key target for maintaining mitochondrial redox potential and metabolism, but its role in eRIC remains unknown. Here, Sirt3-KO mice and cardiac-specific SIRT3 transgenic mice were subjected to the investigation of eRIC. We found that Sirt3 protein expression level was down-regulated in eRIC mice model. Sirt3-KO markedly exaggerated decreases in cardiac energetics and increases in oxidative stress in microwave irradiation (MWI)-stressed mice. Conversely, cardiac-specific SIRT3 overexpression protected the hearts from these effects and rescued cardiac malfunction. Mechanistically, Sirt3 maintained AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway in MWI-stressed hearts in vivo. In conclusion, electromagnetic radiation repressed SIRT3 expression and disturbed cardiac energetics and redox homeostasis. The increased SIRT3 expression and AMPK activation in vivo prevented eRIC, indicating that SIRT3 will be a potential therapeutic target for curative interventions in eRIC.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality in developed countries. Among cardiovascular disorders, myocardial infarction remains a life-threatening problem predisposing to the development and progression of ischemic heart failure. Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a critical cause of myocardial injury. In recent decades, many efforts have been made to find the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the development of myocardial I/R injury and post-ischemic remodeling. Some of these mechanisms are mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic alterations, inflammation, high production of ROS, and autophagy deregulation. Despite continuous efforts, myocardial I/R injury remains a major challenge in medical treatments of thrombolytic therapy, heart disease, primary percutaneous coronary intervention, and coronary arterial bypass grafting. The development of effective therapeutic strategies to reduce or prevent myocardial I/R injury is of great clinical significance.

Abstract
The white adipose tissue's primary roles are to store and mobilise energy, which is very different from the brown adipose tissue's function of using fuel to generate heat and maintain the body temperature. The adipose tissues (ATs), co-ordinately with the other organs, sense energetic demands and inform of their reserves before embarking on energetically demanding physiological functions. It is not surprising that ATs exhibit highly integrated regulatory mechanisms mediated by a diversified secretome, including adipokines, lipokines, metabolites and a repertoire of extracellular miRNAs that contribute to integrating the function of the AT niche and connect the AT through paracrine and endocrine effects with the whole organism. Characterising the adipose secretome, its changes in health and disease, regulation by ageing and gender and their contribution to energy homoeostasis is necessary to optimise its use for personalised strategies to prevent or reverse metabolic diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUD Xinbao Pill (XBP) is extensively used in the adjuvant treatment of chronic heart failure in China. However, the pharmacological effect and underlying mechanism on CHF remains unclear. PURPOSE Our research was performed to investigate the cardioprotective effect of XBP against CHF and uncover the potential mechanism. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were subjected to the left anterior descending (LAD) artery ligation for 8 weeks and were treated with different doses of XBP (from the 4th week to the end). Cardiac function and morphology assessment were performed by using M-mode echocardiography, H&E and Masson staining. Western blotting analysis, co-immunoprecipitation (IP) assays, siRNA transfection were used to evaluate the mechanism of XBP. RESULTS XBP improved cardiac function and alleviated cardiac fibrosis in LAD-induced chronic heart failure rats. Meanwhile, XBP protected cardiomyocytes against oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) injury in AC16 cells and H9c2 cells. Additionally, XBP could increase the expression of β1-AR and β2-AR and inhibit their ubiquitanation. Further mechanism study showed that XBP upregulated USP18 expression, while silence of USP18 attenuated the cardioprotective effect of XBP and the increase of β1-AR by XBP. Moreover, XBP increased MDM2 and β-arrestin2, and disrupted the interaction between Nedd4 and β2-AR. After using the inhibitor of MDM2, SP141, the cardioprotective effect of XBP and the inhibitory effect on the ubiquitanation of β2-AR were also blocked. CONCLUSION Our study firstly revealed that XBP improved cardiac function against CHF through suppressing USP18 and MDM2/β-arrestin2/Nedd4-mediated the ubiquitination of β1-AR and β2-AR.

Abstract
Heart failure is defined as a drop in heart's pump function, accounting for reduced blood output and venous stasis, and constitutes the end stage of various cardiovascular diseases. Although mild mitochondrial dysfunction may hinder cardiomyocyte metabolism and impair myocardial function, severe mitochondrial injury is accompanied by cardiomyocyte apoptosis, leading to irreversible damage of the heart. Selective autophagy of mitochondria, or mitophagy, serves to rapidly remove dysfunctional mitochondria and restore the health of the mitochondrial population within cells by allowing reutilization of degradative substrates such as amino acids, fatty acids, and nucleotides. Although mitophagy represents a protective program that prevents the accumulation of poorly structured or damaged mitochondria, excessive mitophagy leads to mitochondrial population decline, impaired oxidative phosphorylation, and decreased ATP production. In this review, we first discuss the molecular underpinnings of mitophagy and the roles of different mitophagy adaptors. Then, the multiple and complex influence of mitophagy on heart failure is summarized. Finally, novel pharmacological strategies targeting mitophagy to relieve heart failure are briefly summarized.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) has been considered as a major threat to health in individuals with diabetes. GrpE-like 2 (Grpel2), a nucleotide exchange factor, has been shown to regulate mitochondrial import process to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis. However, the effect and mechanism of Grpel2 in DCM remain unknown. METHODS The streptozotocin (STZ)-induced DCM mice model and high glucose (HG)-treated cardiomyocytes were established. Overexpression of cardiac-specific Grpel2 was performed by intramyocardial injection of adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9). Bioinformatics analysis, co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP), transcriptomics profiling and functional experiments were used to explore molecular mechanism of Grpel2 in DCM. RESULTS Here, we found that Grpel2 was decreased in DCM induced by STZ. Overexpression of cardiac-specific Grpel2 alleviated cardiac dysfunction and structural remodeling in DCM. In both diabetic hearts and HG-treated cardiomyocytes, Grpel2 overexpression attenuated apoptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction, including decreased mitochondrial ROS production, increased mitochondrial respiratory capacities and increased mitochondrial membrane potential. Mechanistically, Grpel2 interacted with dihydrolipoyl succinyltransferase (DLST), which positively mediated the import process of DLST into mitochondria under HG conditions. Furthermore, the protective effects of Grpel2 overexpression on mitochondrial function and cell survival were blocked by siRNA knockdown of DLST. Moreover, Nr2f6 bond to the Grpel2 promoter region and positively regulated its transcription. CONCLUSION Our study provides for the first time evidence that Grpel2 overexpression exerts a protective effect against mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis in DCM by maintaining the import of DLST into mitochondria. These findings suggest that targeting Grpel2 might be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of patients with DCM.

Abstract
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that alter their morphology through fission (fragmentation) and fusion (elongation). These morphological changes correlate highly with mitochondrial functional adaptations to stressors, such as hypoxia, pressure overload, and inflammation, and are important in the setting of heart failure. Pathological mitochondrial remodeling, characterized by increased fission and reduced fusion, is associated with impaired mitochondrial respiration, increased mitochondrial oxidative stress, abnormal cytoplasmic calcium handling, and increased cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Considering the impact of the mitochondrial morphology on mitochondrial behavior and cardiomyocyte performance, altered mitochondrial dynamics could be expected to induce or exacerbate the pathogenesis and progression of heart failure. However, whether alterations in mitochondrial fission and fusion accelerate or retard the progression of heart failure has been the subject of intense debate. In this review, we first describe the physiological processes and regulatory mechanisms of mitochondrial fission and fusion. Then, we extensively discuss the pathological contributions of mitochondrial fission and fusion to heart failure. Lastly, we examine potential therapeutic approaches targeting mitochondrial fission/fusion to treat patients with heart failure.

Abstract
SIRT3, the primary mitochondrial deacetylase, regulates the functions of mitochondrial proteins including metabolic enzymes and respiratory chain components. Although SIRT3's functions in peripheral tissues are well established, the significance of its downregulation in neurodegenerative diseases is beginning to emerge. SIRT3 plays a key role in brain energy metabolism and provides substrate flexibility to neurons. It also facilitates metabolic coupling between fuel substrate-producing tissues and fuel-consuming tissues. SIRT3 mediates the health benefits of lifestyle-based modifications such as calorie restriction and exercise. SIRT3 deficiency is associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS), a precondition for diseases including obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. The pure form of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is rare, and it has been reported to coexist with these diseases in aging populations. SIRT3 downregulation leads to mitochondrial dysfunction, neuroinflammation, and inflammation, potentially triggering factors of AD pathogenesis. Recent studies have also suggested that SIRT3 may act through multiple pathways to reduce plaque formation in the AD brain. In this review, we give an overview of SIRT3's roles in brain physiology and pathology and discuss several activators of SIRT3 that can be considered potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of dementia.

Abstract
High mortality rates due to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have attracted worldwide attention. It has been reported that mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the most important mechanisms affecting the pathogenesis of CVDs. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations may result in impaired oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), abnormal respiratory chains, and ATP production. In dysfunctional mitochondria, the electron transport chain (ETC) is uncoupled and the energy supply is reduced, while reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is increased. Here, we discussed and analyzed the relationship between mtDNA mutations, impaired mitophagy, decreased OXPHOS, elevated ROS, and CVDs from the perspective of mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, we explored current potential therapeutic strategies for CVDs by eliminating mtDNA mutations (e.g., mtDNA editing and mitochondrial replacement), enhancing mitophagy, improving OXPHOS capacity (e.g., supplement with NAD+, nicotinamide riboside (NR), nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), and nano-drug delivery), and reducing ROS (e.g., supplement with Coenzyme Q10 and other antioxidants), and dissected their respective advantages and limitations. In fact, some therapeutic strategies are still a long way from achieving safe and effective clinical treatment. Although establishing effective and safe therapeutic strategies for CVDs remains challenging, starting from a mitochondrial perspective holds bright prospects.
