Sirt1: def-eating senescence?

ABSTRACT: Sirt1, the closest mammalian homolog of the Sir2 yeast longevity protein, has been extensively investigated in the last few years as an avenue to understand the connection linking nutrients and energy metabolism with aging and related diseases. From this research effort the picture has emerged of an enzyme at the hub of a complex array of molecular interactions whereby nutrient-triggered signals are translated into several levels of adaptive cell responses, the failure of which underlies diseases as diverse as diabetes, neurodegeneration and cancer. Sirt1 thus connects moderate calorie intake to "healthspan," and a decline of Sirt-centered protective circuits over time may explain the "catastrophic" nature of aging.

SIRT1 is regulated by a PPAR{?}-SIRT1 negative feedback loop associated with senescence.

Project description:Human Silent Information Regulator Type 1 (SIRT1) is an NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase protein which is an intermediary of cellular metabolism in gene silencing and aging. SIRT1 has been extensively investigated and shown to delay senescence; however, less is known about the regulation of SIRT1 during aging. In this study, we show that the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-? (PPAR?), which is a ligand-regulated modular nuclear receptor that governs adipocyte differentiation and inhibits cellular proliferation, inhibits SIRT1 expression at the transcriptional level. Moreover, both PPAR? and SIRT1 can bind the SIRT1 promoter. PPAR? directly interacts with SIRT1 and inhibits SIRT1 activity, forming a negative feedback and self-regulation loop. In addition, our data show that acetylation of PPAR? increased with increasing cell passage number. We propose that PPAR? is subject to regulation by acetylation and deacetylation via p300 and SIRT1 in cellular senescence. These results demonstrate a mutual regulation between PPAR? and SIRT1 and identify a new posttranslational modification that affects cellular senescence.

Aquatide Activation of SIRT1 Reduces Cellular Senescence through a SIRT1-FOXO1-Autophagy Axis.

Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is a relevant environment factor to induce cellular senescence and photoaging. Both autophagy- and silent information regulator T1 (SIRT1)-dependent pathways are critical cellular processes of not only maintaining normal cellular functions, but also protecting cellular senescence in skin exposed to UV irradiation. In the present studies, we investigated whether modulation of autophagy induction using a novel synthetic SIRT1 activator, heptasodium hexacarboxymethyl dipeptide-12 (named as Aquatide), suppresses the UVB irradiation-induced skin aging. Treatment with Aquatide directly activates SIRT1 and stimulates autophagy induction in cultured human dermal fibroblasts. Next, we found that Aquatide-mediated activation of SIRT1 increases autophagy induction via deacetylation of forkhead box class O (FOXO) 1. Finally, UVB irradiation-induced cellular senescence measured by SA-?-gal staining was significantly decreased in cells treated with Aquatide in parallel to occurring SIRT1 activation-dependent autophagy. Together, Aquatide modulates autophagy through SIRT1 activation, contributing to suppression of skin aging caused by UV irradiation.

SIRT1 is downregulated by autophagy in senescence and ageing.

Project description:SIRT1 (Sir2) is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase that plays critical roles in a broad range of biological events, including metabolism, the immune response and ageing1-5. Although there is strong interest in stimulating SIRT1 catalytic activity, the homeostasis of SIRT1 at the protein level is poorly understood. Here we report that macroautophagy (hereafter referred to as autophagy), a catabolic membrane trafficking pathway that degrades cellular components through autophagosomes and lysosomes, mediates the downregulation of mammalian SIRT1 protein during senescence and in vivo ageing. In senescence, nuclear SIRT1 is recognized as an autophagy substrate and is subjected to cytoplasmic autophagosome-lysosome degradation, via the autophagy protein LC3. Importantly, the autophagy-lysosome pathway contributes to the loss of SIRT1 during ageing of several tissues related to the immune and haematopoietic system in mice, including the spleen, thymus, and haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, as well as in CD8+CD28- T cells from aged human donors. Our study reveals a mechanism in the regulation of the protein homeostasis of SIRT1 and suggests a potential strategy to stabilize SIRT1 to promote productive ageing.

FOXQ1 regulates senescence-associated inflammation via activation of SIRT1 expression.

Project description:Cellular senescence is an initial barrier to tumor development that prevents the proliferation of premalignant cells. However, some of the features of senescent cells seem to promote tumor progression via senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Here, we demonstrated that the protein level of forkhead box Q1 (FOXQ1), which highly overexpresses in several kinds of tumors, was significantly downregulated during both replicative and oncogene-induced senescence. Moreover, overexpression of FOXQ1 delayed senescence, whereas FOXQ1 silence led to premature senescence in human fibroblasts. Furthermore, we identified that FOXQ1 upregulated SIRT1 expression through transcriptional regulation via directly binding to the SIRT1 promoter. Finally, we showed that FOXQ1 remarkably inhibited the replicative senescence through depressing the expression of the inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-8 via modulation of SIRT1-NF-?B pathway. In addition, FOXQ1 overexpressed in human esophageal cancer cells and ablation of FOXQ1 restrained the tumourigenic ability of the esophageal cancer cells (EC109 and EC9706) in a mouse xenograft model in vivo. Taken together, these findings uncover a previously unidentified role of FOXQ1 regulating SASP and tumor development at same time.

Two novel SIRT1 activators, SCIC2 and SCIC2.1, enhance SIRT1-mediated effects in stress response and senescence.

Project description:SIRT1, a NAD+-dependent deacetylase, is the most well-studied member of class III histone deacetylases. Due to its wide range of activities and substrate targets, this enzyme has emerged as a major regulator of different physiological processes. However, SIRT1-mediated alterations are also implicated in the pathogenesis of several conditions, including metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Current evidence highlights the potential role of SIRT1 as an attractive therapeutic target for disease prevention and treatment strategies, thus propelling the development of new pharmacological agents. By high-throughput screening of a large library of compounds, we identified SCIC2 as an effective SIRT1 activator. This small molecule showed enzymatic activity of 135.8% at 10 μM, an AC50 value of 50 ± 1.8 µM, and bound SIRT1 with a KD of 26.4 ± 0.6 μM. In order to potentiate its SIRT1-activating ability, SCIC2 was subjected to modelling studies, leading to the identification of a more potent derivative, SCIC2.1. SCIC2.1 displayed higher SIRT1 activity (175%; AC50 = 36.83 ± 2.23 µM), stronger binding to SIRT1, and greater cell permeability than SCIC2. At cellular level, both molecules did not alter the cell cycle progression of cancer cells and normal cells, and were able to strengthen SIRT1-mediated effects in stress response. Finally, SCIC2 and SCIC2.1 attenuated induction of senescence by reducing senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity. Our findings warrant further investigation of these two novel SIRT1 activators in in vivo and human studies.

hnRNP A1 antagonizes cellular senescence and senescence-associated secretory phenotype via regulation of SIRT1 mRNA stability.

Project description:Senescent cells display a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) which contributes to tumor suppression, aging, and cancer. However, the underlying mechanisms for SASP regulation are not fully elucidated. SIRT1, a nicotinamide adenosine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylase, plays multiple roles in metabolism, inflammatory response, and longevity, etc. However, its posttranscriptional regulation and its roles in cellular senescence and SASP regulation are still elusive. Here, we identify the RNA-binding protein hnRNP A1 as a posttranscriptional regulator of SIRT1, as well as cell senescence and SASP regulator. hnRNP A1 directly interacts with the 3' untranslated region of SIRT1 mRNA, promotes its stability, and increases SIRT1 expression. hnRNP A1 delays replicative cellular senescence and prevents from Ras OIS via upregulation of SIRT1 expression to deacetylate NF-?B, thus blunting its transcriptional activity and subsequent IL-6/IL-8 induction. hnRNP A1 overexpression promotes cell transformation and tumorigenesis in a SIRT1-dependent manner. Together, our findings unveil a novel posttranscriptional regulation of SIRT1 by hnRNP A1 and uncover a critical role of hnRNP A1-SIRT1-NF-?B pathway in regulating cellular senescence and SASP expression.

SIRT1 regulation of wakefulness and senescence-like phenotype in wake neurons.

Project description:Wake neurons in the basal forebrain and brainstem provide critical inputs to optimize alertness and attention. These neurons, however, evidence heightened vulnerability to a diverse array of metabolic challenges, including aging. SIRT1 is an nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide responsive deacetylase serving diverse adaptive responses to metabolic challenges, yet this metabolic rheostat may be downregulated under conditions of significant oxidative stress. We hypothesized that SIRT1 might serve as a critical neuroprotectant for wake neurons in young animals but that this protectant would be lost upon aging, rendering the neurons more vulnerable to metabolic insults. In this collection of studies, we first established the presence of nuclear SIRT1 in wake neurons throughout the forebrain and brainstem. Supporting functional and behavioral roles for SIRT1 in wake-active neurons, transgenic whole animal, and conditional loss of brain SIRT1 in the adult mouse impart selective impairments in wakefulness, without disrupting non-rapid eye movement or rapid eye movement sleep. Populations of wake neurons, including the orexinergic, locus ceruleus, mesopontine cholinergic, and dopaminergic wake neurons, evidence loss of dendrites and neurotransmitter synthesis enzymes and develop accelerated accumulation of lipofuscin, consistent with a senescence-like phenotype in wake neurons. Normal aging results in a progressive loss of SIRT1 in wake-active neurons, temporally coinciding with lipofuscin accumulation. SIRT1 is a critical age-sensitive neuroprotectant for wake neurons, and its deficiency results in impaired wakefulness.

DRG2 Accelerates Senescence via Negative Regulation of SIRT1 in Human Diploid Fibroblasts.

Project description:Accumulating evidence suggests that developmentally regulated GTP-binding protein 2 (DRG2), an evolutionarily conserved GTP-binding protein, plays an important role in regulating cell growth, inflammation, and mitochondria dynamics. However, the effect of DRG2 in aging remains unclear. In this study, we found that endogenous DRG2 protein expression is upregulated in oxidative stress-induced premature senescence models and tissues of aged mice. Ectopic expression of DRG2 significantly promoted senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity and inhibited cell growth, concomitant with increase in levels of acetyl (ac)-p53 (Lys382), ac-nuclear factor-kB (NF-κB) p65 (Lys310), p21 Waf1/Cip1 , and p16 Ink4a and a decrease in cyclin D1. In this process, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and phosphorylation of H2A histone family member X (H2A.X), forming γ-H2A.X, were enhanced. Mechanistically, ectopic expression of DRG2 downregulated Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1), resulting in augmented acetylation of p53 and NF-κB p65. Additionally, DRG2 knockdown significantly abolished oxidative stress-induced premature senescence. Our results provide a possible molecular mechanism for investigation of cellular senescence and aging regulated by DRG2.

SIRT1 promotes proliferation and inhibits the senescence-like phenotype in human melanoma cells.

Project description:SIRT1 operates as both a tumor suppressor and oncogenic factor depending on the cell context. Whether SIRT1 plays a role in melanoma biology remained poorly elucidated. Here, we demonstrate that SIRT1 is a critical regulator of melanoma cell proliferation. SIRT1 suppression by genetic or pharmacological approaches induces cell cycle arrest and a senescence-like phenotype. Gain and loss of function experiments show that M-MITF regulates SIRT1 expression, thereby revealing a melanocyte-specific control of SIRT1. SIRT1 over-expression relieves the senescence-like phenotype and the proliferation arrest caused by MITF suppression, demonstrating that SIRT1 is an effector of MITF-induced proliferation in melanoma cells. Interestingly, SIRT1 level and activity are enhanced in the PLX4032-resistant BRAF(V600E)-mutated melanoma cells compared with their sensitive counterpart. SIRT1 inhibition decreases melanoma cell growth and rescues the sensibility to PLX4032 of PLX4032-resistant BRAF(V600E)-mutated melanoma cells. In conclusion, we provide the first evidence that inhibition of SIRT1 warrants consideration as an anti-melanoma therapeutic option.

SIRT1 ameliorates age-related senescence of mesenchymal stem cells via modulating telomere shelterin.

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) senescence is an age-related process that impairs the capacity for tissue repair and compromises the clinical use of autologous MSCs for tissue regeneration. Here, we describe the effects of SIRT1, a NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase, on age-related MSCs senescence. Knockdown of SIRT1 in young MSCs induced cellular senescence and inhibited cell proliferation whereas overexpression of SIRT1 in aged MSCs reversed the senescence phenotype and stimulated cell proliferation. These results suggest that SIRT1 plays a key role in modulating age-induced MSCs senescence. Aging-related proteins, P16 and P21 may be downstream effectors of the SIRT1-mediated anti-aging effects. SIRT1 protected MSCs from age-related DNA damage, induced telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) expression and enhanced telomerase activity but did not affect telomere length. SIRT1 positively regulated the expression of tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TPP1), a component of the shelterin pathway that protects chromosome ends from DNA damage. Together, the results demonstrate that SIRT1 quenches age-related MSCs senescence by mechanisms that include enhanced TPP1 expression, increased telomerase activity and reduced DNA damage.
