Circ-Sirt1 Decelerates Senescence by Inhibiting p53 Activation in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells, Ameliorating Neointima Formation.

ABSTRACT: Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) senescence is a major driver of neointimal formation. We have demonstrated that circ-Sirt1 derived from the SIRT1 gene suppressed VSMC inflammation and neointimal formation. However, the effect of circ-Sirt1 inhibiting inflammation on VSMC senescence during neointimal hyperplasia remains to be elucidated. Here, we showed that circ-Sirt1 was highly expressed in young and healthy arteries, which was decreased in aged arteries and neointima of humans and mice. Overexpression of circ-Sirt1 delayed Ang II-induced VSMC senescence in vitro and ameliorated neointimal hyperplasia in vivo. Mechanically, circ-Sirt1 inhibited p53 activity at the levels of transcription and post-translation modulation. In detail, circ-Sirt1, on the one hand, interacted with and held p53 to block its nuclear translocation, and on the other hand, promoted SIRT1-mediated p53 deacetylation and inactivation. In conclusion, our data suggest that circ-Sirt1 is a novel p53 repressor in response senescence-inducing stimuli, and targeting circ-Sirt1 may be a promising approach to ameliorating aging-related vascular disease.

Project description:ObjectiveGenome-wide studies showed that mutation in apoER2 (apolipoprotein E receptor-2) is additive with ε4 polymorphism in the APOE gene on cardiovascular disease risk in humans. ApoE or apoER2 deficiency also accelerates atherosclerosis lesion necrosis in hypercholesterolemic mice and promotes neointima formation after vascular injury. This study tests the hypothesis that apoE and apoER2 modulate vascular occlusive diseases through distinct mechanisms. Approach and Results: Carotid endothelial denudation induced robust neointima formation in both apoE-/- and apoER2-deficient Lrp8-/- mice. The intima in apoE-/- mice was rich in smooth muscle cells, but the intima in Lrp8-/- mice was cell-poor and rich in extracellular matrix. Vascular smooth muscle cells isolated from apoE-/- mice were hyperplastic whereas Lrp8-/- smooth muscle cells showed reduced proliferation but responded robustly to TGF (transforming growth factor)-β-induced fibronectin synthesis indicative of a senescence-associated secretory phenotype, which was confirmed by increased β-galactosidase activity, p16INK4a immunofluorescence, and number of multinucleated cells. Western blot analysis of cell cycle-associated proteins showed that apoER2 deficiency promotes cell cycle arrest at the metaphase/anaphase. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that apoER2 interacts with the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A. In the absence of apoER2, PP2A-C (protein phosphatase 2A catalytic subunit) failed to interact with CDC20 (cell-division cycle protein 20) thus resulting in inactive anaphase-promoting complex and impaired cell cycle exit.ConclusionsThis study showed that apoER2 participates in APC (anaphase-promoting complex)/CDC20 complex formation during mitosis, and its absence impedes cytokinesis abscission thereby accelerating premature cell senescence and vascular disease. This mechanism is distinct from apoE deficiency, which causes smooth muscle cell hyperplasia to accelerate vascular disease.
