Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In this study, we carried out a clinical sample study, and in vivo and in vitro studies to evaluate the effect of SIRT6 and SIRT6-mediated vascular smooth muscle senescence on the development of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). METHOD AND RESULTS AAA specimen showed an increased P16, P21 level and a decreased SIRT6 level compared with control aorta. Time curve study of Ang II infusion AAA model showed similar P16, P21 and SIRT6 changes at the early phase of AAA induction. The in vivo overexpression of SIRT6 significantly prevented AAA formation in Ang II infusion model. The expression of P16 and P21 was significantly reduced after SIRT6 overexpression. SIRT6 overexpression also attenuated chronic inflammation and neo-angiogenesis in Ang II infusion model. The overexpression of SIRT6 could attenuate premature senescence, inflammatory response and neo-angiogenesis in human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMC) under Ang II stimulation. CONCLUSIONS SIRT6 overexpression could limit AAA formation via attenuation of vascular smooth muscle senescence, chronic inflammation and neovascularity.

Abstract
Rheumatic disease is a disease which is not yet fully clarified to etiology and also involved in a local pathological injury or systemic disease. With the continuous improvement of clinical medical research in recent years, the development process of rheumatic diseases has been gradually elucidated; with the intensely study of epigenetics, it is realized that environmental changes can affect genetics, among which histone acetylation is one of the essential mechanisms in epigenetics. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play an important role in regulating gene expression in various biological processes, including differentiation, development, stress response, and injury. HDACs are involved in a variety of physiological processes and are promising drug targets in various pathological conditions, such as cancer, cardiac and neurodegenerative diseases, inflammation, metabolic and immune disorders, and viral and parasitic infections. In this paper, we reviewed the roles of HDACs in rheumatic diseases in terms of their classification and function.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 14:1281213. [PMID: 38264287 PMCID: PMC10805026 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1281213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Mitochondria plays a role in cell differentiation and apoptosis processes. Maintaining mitochondrial function is critical, and this involves various aspects of mitochondrial quality control such as protein homeostasis, biogenesis, dynamics, and mitophagy. Osteoporosis, a metabolic bone disorder, primarily arises from two factors: the dysregulation between lipogenic and osteogenic differentiation of aging bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and the imbalance between osteoblast-mediated bone formation and osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Mitochondrial quality control has the potential to mitigate or even reverse the effects. Among the Sirtuin family, consisting of seven Sirtuins (SIRT1-7), SIRT1-SIRT6 play a crucial role in maintaining mitochondrial quality control. Additionally, SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6, and SIRT7 are directly involved in normal bone development and homeostasis by modulating bone cells. However, the precise mechanism by which these Sirtuins exert their effects remains unclear. This article reviews the impact of various aspects of mitochondrial quality control on osteoporosis, focusing on how SIRT1, SIRT3, and SIRT6 can improve osteoporosis by regulating mitochondrial protein homeostasis, biogenesis, and mitophagy. Furthermore, we provide an overview of the current state of clinical and preclinical drugs that can activate Sirtuins to improve osteoporosis. Specific Sirtuin-activating compounds are effective, but further studies are needed. The findings of this study may offer valuable insights for future research on osteoporosis and the development of clinical prevention and therapeutic target strategies.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT1-SIRT7), as a family of NAD+-dependent protein modifying enzymes, have various catalytic functions, such as deacetylases, dealkalylases, and deribonucleases. The Sirtuins family is directly or indirectly involved in pathophysiological processes such as glucolipid metabolism, oxidative stress, DNA repair and inflammatory response through various pathways and assumes an important role in several cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, hypertension and heart failure. A growing number of studies supports that metabolic and bioenergetic reprogramming directs the sequential process of inflammation. Failure of homeostatic restoration leads to many inflammatory diseases, and that macrophages are the central cells involving the inflammatory response and are the main source of inflammatory cytokines. Regulation of cellular metabolism has emerged as a fundamental process controlling macrophage function, but its exact signaling mechanisms remain to be revealed. Understanding the precise molecular basis of metabolic control of macrophage inflammatory processes may provide new approaches for targeting immune metabolism and inflammation. Here, we provide an update of studies in cardiovascular disease on the function and role of sirtuins in macrophage inflammation and metabolism, as well as drug candidates that may interfere with sirtuins, pointing to future prospects in this field.

[PMID: 37851128 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-023-05330-6] [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: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sirtuin6 plays an important role in the regulation of inflammation, homeostasis, and apoptosis, and it has anti-inflammatory effects on several diseases. Lipoxin A4 is a pro-resolving lipid mediator of inflammation and inhibits hypoxia-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress. Considering that Lipoxin A4 and Sirtuin6 have protective effects on inflammatory diseases, the aim of this study is to determine the possible roles of these molecules on periodontitis inflammation in saliva and serum and to reveal the relationship of these data with clinical periodontal parameters. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 20 stage III/grade B periodontitis and 20 periodontally healthy subjects were included in this cross-sectional study (all never smokers and systemically healthy). Clinical periodontal parameters (plaque index, probing pocket depth, bleeding on probing, clinical attachment loss) were recorded. Saliva and serum levels of Sirtuin6 and Lipoxin A4 were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Serum Sirtuin6 and saliva Lipoxin A4 levels were significantly lower in the periodontitis group than the control group (respectively, p = 0.0098, p = 0.0008). There were negative correlations between all periodontal clinical parameters and saliva Lipoxin A4 level (p < 0.05) and between probing pocket depth, clinical attachment loss, and serum and saliva Sirtuin6 levels (respectively, r = - 0.465 and r = - 0.473, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Decreased levels of serum Sirtuin6 and saliva Lipoxin A4 in periodontitis patients and their correlation with clinical periodontal parameters suggest that serum Sirtuin6 and saliva Lipoxin A4 may be related with periodontal inflammation. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Scientific rationale for the study: Sirtuin6 is one of seven members of the family of NAD + dependent protein that played an important role in the regulation of inflammation, energy metabolism, homeostasis, and apoptosis. Sirtuin6 is associated with the pathogenesis of several diseases. Lipoxin A4 is a lipid mediator that inhibits hypoxia-induced apoptosis and oxidative stress, and it has an active role in the resolution of periodontal inflammation. No studies that investigated the potential role Sirtuin6 and its relationship with inflammation resolution and apoptosis mechanisms in severe periodontitis patients. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS the serum Sirtuin6 and saliva Lipoxin A4 levels were significantly lower and negatively correlated with clinical periodontal parameters in the patients with periodontitis than the healthy controls. PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS this study shows that serum Sirtuin6 and saliva Lipoxin A4 may be candidate biomarkers related with periodontal inflammation and estimating to periodontal status.

Sirtuin 6 ameliorates arthritis through modulating cyclic AMP-responsive element binding protein/CCN1/cyclooxygenase 2 pathway in osteoblasts. J Bone Miner Metab 2023; 41:772-784. [PMID: 37898986 DOI: 10.1007/s00774-023-01468-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION CCN1 is an immediate-early gene product pivotal for arthritis progression. We have previously shown that sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) inhibited hypoxia-induced CCN1 expression in osteoblasts. Herein we examined the contribution of cyclic AMP-responsive element binding protein (CREB)/CRE to this suppressive action and the influence of CCN1 on cyclooxygenase (COX) 2 synthesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS MC3T3-E1 murine osteoblasts were cultured under normoxia (21% oxygen) or hypoxia (2% oxygen). Expressions of CCN1, phospho-CREB (Ser133), COX2 and relevant kinases were assessed by Western blot. SIRT6 was overexpressed in cultured osteoblasts and arthritic joints by a lentiviral-based technique. Activities of CCN1 gene promoter constructs were examined by luciferase reporter assay. Interaction between CREB and CCN1 promoter was assessed by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) was established in 20 rats to evaluate the effects of SIRT6 therapy on osteoblastic expressions of phospho-CREB, CCN1 and COX2. RESULTS SIRT6 suppressed hypoxia-enhanced CCN1 expression and CREB phosphorylation. Attenuation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) may be responsible for SIRT6-induced CREB inhibition. CRE at - 286 bp upstream of the ATG start codon was essential for CCN1 expression under hypoxia and SIRT6 reduced hypoxia-stimulated CREB/CRE interaction. Forced expression of CREB rescued SIRT6-suppressed CCN1 synthesis. CCN1 induced COX2 expression in osteoblasts. In rat CIA, the therapeutic effect of SIRT6 was accompanied by decreases in osteoblastic expressions of phospho-CREB, CCN1 and COX2. CONCLUSION Our study indicated that the benefits of SIRT6 to inflammatory arthritis and bone resorption are at least partially derived from its modulation of CREB/CCN1/COX2 pathway in osteoblasts.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), which is a major cause of serious arthralgia and disability among the elderly, has long plagued numerous populations. However, the specific molecular mechanisms involved in the etiology of OA are unclear. SIRT6 plays a critical function in the development of several inflammatory and aging-associated diseases. A study by D'Onofrio demonstrates that ergothioneine (EGT) is an effective activator of SIRT6. As revealed by previous reports, EGT exerts beneficial effects on the mouse body, including resistance to oxidation, tumor, and inflammation. Therefore, this work attempted to identify the inflammatory resistance of EGT and explore its effects on the incidence and development of OA. Mouse chondrocyte stimulation using varying levels of EGT and 10 ng/mL IL-1β. According to in vitro experiments, EGT significantly reduced the decomposition of collagen II and aggrecan in OA chondrocytes, as well as inhibited the overexpression of PGE2, NO, IL-6, TNF-α, iNOs, COX-2, MMP-13, and ADAMTS5. In the present work, EGT hindered the NF-κB activity by activating the SIRT6 pathway in OA chondrocytes, which in turn, significantly attenuated the inflammatory response resulting from IL to 1β. The inhibitory effect of EGT on the progression of OA was demonstrated by the mouse DMM model experiment. Thus, this study revealed that EGT was effective in anti-OA treatment.

The Profiles and Functions of RNA Editing Sites Associated with High-Altitude Adaptation in Goats. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24043115. [PMID: 36834526 PMCID: PMC9964554 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24043115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
High-altitude environments dramatically influenced the genetic evolution of vertebrates. However, little is known about the role of RNA editing on high-altitude adaptation in non-model species. Here, we profiled the RNA editing sites (RESs) of heart, lung, kidney, and longissimus dorsi muscle from Tibetan cashmere goats (TBG, 4500 m) and Inner Mongolia cashmere goats (IMG, 1200 m) to reveal RNA editing-related functions of high-altitude adaptation in goats. We identified 84,132 high-quality RESs that were unevenly distributed across the autosomes in TBG and IMG, and more than half of the 10,842 non-redundant editing sites were clustered. The majority (62.61%) were adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) sites, followed by cytidine-to-uridine (C-to-U) sites (19.26%), and 32.5% of them had a significant correlation with the expression of catalytic genes. Moreover, A-to-I and C-to-U RNA editing sites had different flanking sequences, amino acid mutations, and alternative splicing activity. TBG had higher editing levels of A-to-I and C-to-U than IMG in the kidney, whereas a lower level was found in the longissimus dorsi muscle. Furthermore, we identified 29 IMG and 41 TBG population-specific editing sites (pSESs) and 53 population-differential editing sites (pDESs) that were functionally involved in altering RNA splicing or recoding protein products. It is worth noting that 73.3% population-differential, 73.2% TBG-specific, and 80% IMG-specific A-to-I sites were nonsynonymous sites. Moreover, the pSESs and pDESs editing-related genes play critical functions in energy metabolisms such as ATP binding molecular function, translation, and adaptive immune response, which may be linked to goat high-altitude adaptation. Our results provide valuable information for understanding the adaptive evolution of goats and studying plateau-related diseases.

Abstract
Sirt6 activation has emerged as a promising drug target for the treatment of various human diseases, while only limited Sirt6 activators have been reported. Herein, a series of novel pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline-based derivatives have been identified as potent and selective Sirt6 activators with low cytotoxicity. Sirt6-knockdown findings have validated the on-target effects of this class of Sirt6 activators. Docking studies indicate the protonated nitrogen on the side chain of 38 forms π-cation interactions with Trp188, further stabilizing it into this extended binding pocket. New compounds 35, 36, 38, 46, 47, and 50 strongly repressed LPS-induced proinflammatory cytokine/chemokine production, while 38 also significantly suppressed SARS-CoV-2 infection with an EC50 value of 9.3 μM. Moreover, compound 36 significantly inhibited the colony formation of cancer cells. These new molecules may serve as useful pharmacological tools or potential therapeutics against cancer, inflammation, and infectious diseases.

Abstract
Sirtuins play an important role in signalling pathways associated with various metabolic regulations. They possess mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase or deacylase activity like demalonylase, deacetylase, depalmitoylase, demyristoylase and desuccinylase activity. Sirtuins are histone deacetylases which depends upon nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) that deacetylate lysine residues. There are a total of seven human sirtuins that have been identified namely, SIRT1, SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT4, SIRT5, SIRT6 and SIRT7. The subcellular location of mammalian sirtuins, SIRT1, SIRT6, and SIRT7 are in the nucleus; SIRT3, SIRT4, and SIRT5 are in mitochondria, and SIRT2 is in cytoplasm. Structurally sirtuins contains a N-terminal, a C-terminal and a Zn+ binding domain. The sirtuin family has been found to be crucial for maintaining lipid and glucose homeostasis, and also for regulating insulin secretion and sensitivity, DNA repair pathways, neurogenesis, inflammation, and ageing. Based on the literature, sirtuins are overexpressed and play an important role in tumorigenicity in various types of cancer such as non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, etc. In this review, we have discussed about the different types of human sirtuins along with their structural and functional features. We have also discussed about the various natural and synthetic regulators of sirtuin activities like resveratrol. Our overall study shows that the correct regulation of sirtuins can be a good target for preventing and treating various diseases for improving the human lifespan. To investigate the true therapeutic potential of sirtuin proteins and their efficacy in a variety of pathological diseases, a better knowledge of the link between the structure and function of sirtuin proteins would be necessary.

Abstract
Climate change, environmental pollution, and virus epidemics have sharply increased the number of patients suffering from respiratory diseases in recent years. Prolonged periods of illness and drug use increase the occurrence of complications in these patients. Osteoporosis is the common bone metabolism disease with respiratory disturbance, which affects prognosis and increases mortality of patients. The problem of osteoporosis in patients with respiratory diseases needs more attention. In this review, we concluded the characteristics of osteoporosis in some respiratory diseases including COPD, asthma, COVID-19, tuberculosis, and lung cancer. We revealed that hypoxia was the common pathogenesis of osteoporosis secondary to respiratory diseases, with malnutrition and corticosteroid abuse driving the progression of osteoporosis. Hypoxia-induced ROS accumulation and activated HIF-1α lead to attenuated osteogenesis and enhanced osteoclastogenesis in patients with respiratory diseases. Tuberculosis and cancer also invaded bone tissue and reduced bone strength by direct infiltration. For the treatment of osteoporosis in respiratory patients, oral-optimized bisphosphonates were the best treatment modality. Vitamin D was a necessary supplement, both for calcium absorption in osteogenesis and for improvement of respiratory lesions. Reasonable adjustment of the dose and course of corticosteroids according to the etiology and condition of patients is beneficial to prevent the occurrence and development of osteoporosis. Additionally, HIF-1α was a potential target for the treatment of osteoporosis in respiratory patients, which could be activated under hypoxia condition and involved in the process of bone remodeling.

Abstract
The sirtuins (SIRTs) are a family of enzymes from the group of NAD+-dependent deacetylases. Through the reaction of splitting the acetyl group of various transcription factors and histones they regulate many processes in the organism. The activity of sirtuins is linked to metabolic control, oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis, and they also affect the course of viral infections. For this reason, they may participate in the pathogenesis and development of many diseases, but little is known about their role in the course of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, which is the subject of this review. In the course of HIV infection, comorbidities such as: neurodegenerative disorders, obesity, insulin resistance and diabetes, lipid disorders and cardiovascular diseases, renal and bone diseases developed more frequently and faster compared to the general population. The role of sirtuins in the development of accompanying diseases in the course of HIV infection may also be interesting. There is still a lack of detailed information on this subject. The role of sirtuins, especially SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6, are indicated to be of great importance in the course of HIV infection and the development of the abovementioned comorbidities.

Abstract
The biological functions of sirtuin 6 (SIRT6; e.g., deacetylation, defatty-acylation, and mono-ADP-ribosylation) play a pivotal role in regulating lifespan and several fundamental processes controlling aging such as DNA repair, gene expression, and telomeric maintenance. Over the past decades, the aberration of SIRT6 has been extensively observed in diverse life-threatening human diseases. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the critical roles of SIRT6 in the onset and progression of human diseases including cancer, inflammation, diabetes, steatohepatitis, arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, viral infections, renal and corneal injuries, as well as the elucidation of the related signaling pathways. Moreover, we discuss the advances in the development of small molecule SIRT6 modulators including activators and inhibitors as well as their pharmacological profiles toward potential therapeutics for SIRT6-mediated diseases.

Abstract
Bone cells must constantly respond to hormonal and mechanical cues to change gene expression programs. Of the myriad of epigenomic mechanisms used by cells to dynamically alter cell type-specific gene expression, histone acetylation and deacetylation has received intense focus over the past two decades. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) represent a large family of proteins with a conserved deacetylase domain first described to deacetylate lysine residues on histone tails. It is now appreciated that multiple classes of HDACs exist, some of which are clearly misnamed in that acetylated lysine residues on histone tails is not the major function of their deacetylase domain. Here, we will review the roles of proteins bearing deacetylase domains in bone cells, focusing on current genetic evidence for each individual HDAC gene. While class I HDACs are nuclear proteins whose primary role is to deacetylate histones, class IIa and class III HDACs serve other important cellular functions. Detailed knowledge of the roles of individual HDACs in bone development and remodeling will set the stage for future efforts to specifically target individual HDAC family members in the treatment of skeletal diseases such as osteoporosis.

Abstract
As a member of Sirtuins family, SIRT6 participates in the physiological and pathological progress of DNA repair, anti-aging, metabolism, and so on. Several studies have demonstrated that knockdown of SIRT6 inhibited the development of atherosclerosis (AS), indicated SIRT6 as a protective factor for AS. However, we confirmed SIRT6 was significantly overexpressed in human unstable carotid plaques compared with stable carotid plaques. This result indicated a more complex role of SIRT6 in AS. Furthermore, we constructed mice model with unstable carotid plaque and injected them with SIRT6 overexpressed adeno-associated virus (AAV-SIRT6). AAV-SIRT6 significantly promoted angiogenesis as well as hemorrhage in plaques. In vitro, we demonstrated overexpression of SIRT6 prevented HIF-1α from degradation by deubiquitination at K37 and K532 of HIF-1α, thus promoted the expression of HIF-1α under both normoxia and hypoxia in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Through regulating HIF-1α, overexpression of SIRT6 promoted invasion, migration, proliferation, as well as tube formation ability of HUVECs. Interestingly, under different conditions, SIRT6 played different roles in the function of HUVECs. Under oxidative stress, another important pathological environment for AS, SIRT6 bound to the promoter of Catalase, a main reactive oxygen species scavenger, and depleted H3K56 acetylation, thus inhibited expression and activity of Catalase at the transcriptional level. Subsequently, inhibited Catalase promoted reactive oxygen species (ROS) under oxidative stress. Accumulated ROS further aggravated oxidative stress injury of HUVECs. On one hand, SIRT6 promoted angiogenesis in plaque via HIF-1α under hypoxia. On the other hand, SIRT6 promoted injury of neovascular via ROS under oxidative stress. It is this process of continuous growth and damage that leads to hemorrhage in carotid plaque. In conclusion, we innovatively confirmed SIRT6 promoted the angiogenesis and IPH via promoting HIF-1α and ROS in different environments, thus disclosed the unknowing danger of SIRT6.

Abstract
Kynurenic acid (KA), an endogenous product of L-tryptophan metabolism in the kynurenine pathway, regulates adipose tissue energy homeostasis and inflammation. However, its role in palmitate-induced insulin resistance and detailed underlying mechanisms in skeletal muscles and adipose tissues are unclear. Herein, we report that KA ameliorated palmitate-induced inflammation and insulin resistance in differentiated C2C12 and 3T3-L1 cell lines as well as soleus skeletal muscle and subcutaneous adipose tissues in mice. Palmitate-induced inflammatory markers, such as nuclear factor κB translocation, inhibitory κBα phosphorylation, pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, and impaired insulin signaling, were markedly attenuated by KA both in vitro and in vivo. KA significantly increased AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) phosphorylation and sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) expressions in C2C12 myocytes and 3T3-L1 adipocytes and skeletal muscle and adipose tissues of mice. siRNA-mediated AMPK or SIRT6 inhibition significantly mitigated the suppressive effects of KA on palmitate-induced inflammation and insulin resistance. KA significantly stimulated expression of genes involved in fatty acid oxidation in C2C12 myocytes and skeletal muscle of mice. Moreover, KA inhibits lipogenesis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. AMPK or SIRT6 siRNA markedly reversed these changes. The siRNA targeting Gpr35 abrogated the effects of KA on AMPK phosphorylation in C2C12 myocytes and 3T3-L1 adipocytes, except SIRT6 expression. It has therefore been shown that KA could potentially alleviate inflammation and insulin resistance in skeletal muscle and adipose tissues through Gpr35/AMPK and SIRT6-mediated pathways.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation is a secondary response following ischemia stroke. Arginine is a non-essential amino acid that has been shown to inhibit acute inflammatory reaction. In this study we show that arginine treatment decreases neuronal death after rat cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and improves functional recovery of stroke animals. We also show that arginine suppresses inflammatory response in the ischemic brain tissue and in the cultured microglia after OGD insult. We further provide evidence that the levels of HIF-1α and LDHA are increased after rat I/R injury and that arginine treatment prevents the elevation of HIF-1α and LDHA after I/R injury. Arginine inhibits inflammatory response through suppression of HIF-1α and LDHA in the rat ischemic brain tissue and in the cultured microglia following OGD insult, and protects against ischemic neuron death after rat I/R injury by attenuating HIF-1α/LDHA-mediated inflammatory response. Together, these results indicate a possibility that arginine-induced neuroprotective effect may be through the suppression of HIF-1α/LDHA-mediated inflammatory response in microglia after cerebral ischemia injury.

Abstract
Background We recently reported that myeloid sirtuin 6 (Sirt6) is a critical determinant of phenotypic switching and the migratory responses of macrophages. Given the prominent role of macrophages in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we tested whether myeloid Sirt6 deficiency affects the development and exacerbation of RA. Methods Arthritis was induced in wild type and myeloid Sirt6 knockout (mS6KO) mice using collagen-induced and K/BxN serum transfer models. Sirt6 expression (or activity) and inflammatory activities were compared in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and monocytes/macrophages obtained from patients with RA or osteoarthritis. Findings Based on clinical score, ankle thickness, pathology, and radiology, arthritis was more severe in mS6KO mice relative to wild type, with a greater accumulation of macrophages in the synovium. Consistent with these findings, myeloid Sirt6 deficiency increased the migration potential of macrophages toward synoviocyte-derived chemoattractants. Mechanistically, Sirt6 deficiency in macrophages caused an inflammation with increases in acetylation and protein stability of forkhead box protein O1. Conversely, ectopic overexpression of Sirt6 in knockout cells reduced the inflammatory responses. Lastly, PBMCs and monocytes/macrophages from RA patients exhibited lower expression of Sirt6 than those from patients with osteoarthritis, and their Sirt6 activity was inversely correlated with disease severity. Interpretation Our data identify a role of myeloid Sirt6 in clinical and experimental RA and suggest that myeloid Sirt6 may be an intriguing therapeutic target. Fund Medical Research Center Program and Basic Science Research Program through the National Research Foundation of Korea. Myeloid Sirt6 deficiency aggravates the joint destruction by increasing recruitment of macrophages into arthritic joints. Myeloid Sirt6 deacetylates FoxO1 to promote proteasomal degradation. Overexpression of Sirt6 greatly attenuates inflammatory activity of human macrophages. Sirt6 expression and activity decrease in blood monocytes and joint macrophages from RA patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory Arthritis is characterized by synovial proliferation, neovascularization and leukocyte extravasation leading to joint destruction and functional disability. Efficiency of oxygen supply to the synovium is poor due to the highly dysregulated synovial microvasculature. This along with the increased energy demands of activated infiltrating immune cells and inflamed resident cells leads to an hypoxic microenvironment and mitochondrial dysfunction. This favors an increase of reactive oxygen species, leading to oxidative damage which further promotes inflammation. In this adverse microenvironment synovial cells adapt to generate energy and switch their cell metabolism from a resting regulatory state to a highly metabolically active state which allows them to produce essential building blocks to support their proliferation. This metabolic shift results in the accumulation of metabolic intermediates which act as signaling molecules that further dictate the inflammatory response. Understanding the complex interplay between hypoxia-induced signaling pathways, oxidative stress and mitochondrial function will provide better insight into the underlying mechanisms of disease pathogenesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Epigenetic mechanisms modify gene activity in a stable manner without altering DNA sequence. They participate in the adaptation to the environment, as well as in the pathogenesis of common complex disorders. We provide an overview of the role of epigenetic mechanisms in bone biology and pathology. RECENT FINDINGS Extensive evidence supports the involvement of epigenetic mechanisms (DNA methylation, post-translational modifications of histone tails, and non-coding RNAs) in the differentiation of bone cells and mechanotransduction. A variety of epigenetic abnormalities have been described in patients with osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and skeletal cancers, but their actual pathogenetic roles are still unclear. A few drugs targeting epigenetic marks have been approved for neoplastic disorders, and many more are being actively investigated. Advances in the field of epigenetics underscore the complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors as determinants of osteoporosis and other common disorders. Likewise, they help to explain the mechanisms by which prenatal and post-natal external factors, from nutrition to psychological stress, impact our body and influence the risk of later disease.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Antioxidant and redox signaling (ARS) events are regulated by critical molecules that modulate antioxidants, reactive oxygen species (ROS) or reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and/or oxidative stress within the cell. Imbalances in these molecules can disturb cellular functions to become pathogenic. Sirtuins serve as important regulators of ARS in cells. Recent Advances: Sirtuins (SIRTs 1-7) are a family of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent histone deacetylases with the ability to deacetylate histone and nonhistone targets. Recent studies show that sirtuins modulate the regulation of a variety of cellular processes associated with ARS. SIRT1, SIRT3, and SIRT5 protect the cell from ROS, and SIRT2, SIRT6, and SIRT7 modulate key oxidative stress genes and mechanisms. Interestingly, SIRT4 has been shown to induce ROS production and has antioxidative roles as well. CRITICAL ISSUES A complete understanding of the roles of sirtuins in redox homeostasis of the cell is very important to understand the normal functioning as well as pathological manifestations. In this review, we have provided a critical discussion on the role of sirtuins in the regulation of ARS. We have also discussed mechanistic interactions among different sirtuins. Indeed, a complete understanding of sirtuin biology could be critical at multiple fronts. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Sirtuins are emerging to be important in normal mammalian physiology and in a variety of oxidative stress-mediated pathological situations. Studies are needed to dissect the mechanisms of sirtuins in maintaining redox homeostasis. Efforts are also required to assess the targetability of sirtuins in the management of redox-regulated diseases. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 28, 643-661.

Pathways that Regulate ROS Scavenging Enzymes, and Their Role in Defense Against Tissue Destruction in Periodontitis. Front Physiol 2017; 8:351.

Abstract
Periodontitis, an inflammatory disease that affects the tissues surrounding the teeth, is a common disease worldwide. It is caused by a dysregulation of the host inflammatory response to bacterial infection, which leads to soft and hard tissue destruction. In particular, it is the excessive inflammation in response to bacterial plaque that leads to the release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from neutrophils, which, then play a critical role in the destruction of periodontal tissue. Generally, ROS produced from immune cells exhibit an anti-bacterial effect and play a role in host defense and immune regulation. Excessive ROS, however, can exert cytotoxic effects, cause oxidative damage to proteins, and DNA, can interfere with cell growth and cell cycle progression, and induce apoptosis of gingival fibroblasts. Collectively, these effects enable ROS to directly induce periodontal tissue damage. Some ROS also act as intracellular signaling molecules during osteoclastogenesis, and can thus also play an indirect role in bone destruction. Cells have several protective mechanisms to manage such oxidative stress, most of which involve production of cytoprotective enzymes that scavenge ROS. These enzymes are transcriptionally regulated via NRF2, Sirtuin, and FOXO. Some reports indicate an association between periodontitis and these cytoprotective enzymes' regulatory axes, with superoxide dismutase (SOD) the most extensively investigated. In this review article, we discuss the role of oxidative stress in the tissue destruction manifest in periodontitis, and the mechanisms that protect against this oxidative stress.
