Abstract
Silent information regulator type-1 (SIRT1), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide+-dependent deacetylase, is a member of the sirtuins family and has unique protein deacetylase activity. SIRT1 participates in physiological as well as pathophysiological processes by targeting a wide range of protein substrates and signalings. In this review, we described the latest progress of SIRT1 in pulmonary diseases. We have introduced the basic information and summarized the prominent role of SIRT1 in several lung diseases, such as acute lung injury, acute respiratory distress syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer, and aging-related diseases.

Abstract
Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homologue (KRAS) is a frequent oncogenic driver of solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The treatment and outcomes of KRAS-mutant cancers have not been dramatically revolutionized by direct KRAS-targeted therapies because of the lack of deep binding pockets for specific small molecule inhibitors. Here, we demonstrated that the mRNA and protein levels of the class III histone deacetylase SIRT1 were upregulated by the KRASMut-Raf-MEK-c-Myc axis in KRASMut lung cancer cells and in lung tumors of a mouse model with spontaneous KrasG12D expression. KRASMut-induced SIRT1 bound to KRASMut and stably deacetylated KRASMut at lysine 104, which increased KRASMut activity. SIRT1 knockdown (K/D) or the SIRT1H363Y mutation increased KRASMut acetylation, which decreased KRASMut activity and sensitized tumors to the anticancer effects of cisplatin and erlotinib. Furthermore, in KrasG12D/+;Sirt1co/co mice, treatment with cisplatin and erlotinib robustly reduced the tumor burden and increased survival rates compared with those in spontaneous LSL-KrasG12D/+;Sirt1+/+ mice and mice in each single-drug treatment group. Then, we identified p300 as a KRASMut acetyltransferase that reinforced KRASMut lysine 104 acetylation and robustly decreased KRASMut activity. KRASMut lysine 104 acetylation by p300 and deacetylation by SIRT1 were confirmed by LC‒MS/MS. Consistent with this finding, the SIRT1 inhibitor EX527 suppressed KRASMut activity, which synergistically abolished cell proliferation and colony formation, as well as the tumor burden in KRASMut mice, when combined with cisplatin or erlotinib. Our data reveal a novel pathway critical for the regulation of KRASMut lung cancer progression and provide important evidence for the potential application of SIRT1 inhibitors and p300 activators for the combination treatment of KRASMut lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Increasing evidence suggests that there is acceleration of lung ageing in chronic lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), with the accumulation of senescent cells in the lung. Senescent cells fail to repair tissue damage and release an array of inflammatory proteins, known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype, which drive further senescence and disease progression. This suggests that targeting cellular senescence with senotherapies may treat the underlying disease process in COPD and IPF and thus reduce disease progression and mortality. Several existing or future drugs may inhibit the development of cellular senescence which is driven by chronic oxidative stress (senostatics), including inhibitors of PI3K-mTOR signalling pathways, antagomirs of critical microRNAs and novel antioxidants. Other drugs (senolytics) selectively remove senescent cells by promoting apoptosis. Clinical studies with senotherapies are already underway in chronic lung diseases.

Abstract
PURPOSE Exosomal miRNAs play key roles in various biological processes such as cell proliferation, angiogenesis, migration and invasion. We explored whether exosomal miRNAs can promote local recurrence (LR) of lung tumors following incomplete microwave ablation (MWA) therapy. METHODS Exosomal miRNA profiles before and after incomplete MWA in lung cancer (LC) patients with LR (n = 3) were sequenced and compared. The differentially expressed miRNAs of interest were validated in clinical samples (n = 10) and MWA-treated cells using RT-qPCR analysis. Target genes of the miRNAs were predicted and validated. The biological functions of miRNAs in proliferation, angiogenesis and metastasis of A549 cells were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS A total of 270 miRNAs (243 upregulated and 27 downregulated) were differentially expressed after incomplete MWA in patients with local recurrence. Upregulation of miR-133a-3p after MWA was validated in the cells and clinical samples. Cell functional experiments suggested that miR-133a-3p overexpression derived from serum exosomes increased cell viability, migration and invasion ability, tube formation activity and proliferation of A549 cells. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) was identified as a target gene for miR-133a-3p. Moreover, miR-133a-3p delivered by exosomes significantly promoted tumor growth, paralleled by reduced SIRT1 expression in a subcutaneous tumorigenesis animal model and increased the number of lung nodules by tail vein metastasis in vivo. CONCLUSION Exosomal miR-133a-3p overexpression promoted tumor growth and metastasis following MWA and could be a promising biomarker for LC recurrence after incomplete MWA.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is one of the most incident malignancies and a leading cause of cancer mortality worldwide. Common tumorigenic drivers of LC mainly include genetic alterations of EGFR, ALK, KRAS, BRAF, ROS1, and MET. Small inhibitory molecules and antibodies selectively targeting these alterations or/and their downstream signaling pathways have been approved for treatment of LC. Unfortunately, following initial positive responses to these targeted therapies, a large number of patients show dismal prognosis due to the occurrence of resistance mechanisms, such as novel mutations of these genes and activation of alternative signaling pathways. Over the past decade, it has become clear that there is no possible cure for LC unless potent antitumor immune responses are induced by therapeutic intervention. Immunogenic cell death (ICD) is a newly emerged concept, a form of regulated cell death that is sufficient to activate adaptive immune responses against tumor cells. It transforms dying cancer cells into a therapeutic vaccine and stimulates long-lasting protective antitumor immunity. In this review, we discuss the key targetable genetic aberrations and the underlying mechanism of ICD in LC. Various agents inducing ICD are summarized and the possibility of harnessing ICD in LC immunotherapy is further explored.

Abstract
Silent mating type information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1), an NAD+-dependent histone/protein deacetylase, has multifarious physiological roles in development, metabolic regulation, and stress response. Thus, its abnormal expression or malfunction is implicated in pathogenesis of various diseases. SIRT1 undergoes post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation, oxidation/reduction, carbonylation, nitrosylation, glycosylation, ubiquitination/deubiquitination, SUMOylation etc. which can modulate its catalytic activity, stability, subcellular localization, and also binding affinity for substrate proteins. This short review highlights the regulation of SIRT1 post-translational modifications and their pathophysiologic implications.

Abstract
Pro-senescence therapy is a recently proposed anti-cancer strategy and has been shown to effectively inhibit cancer. Resveratrol is gaining attention for its cancer preventive and suppressive properties. The mechanisms of resveratrol in cancer suppression by inducing cancer cell senescence are unclear. Our results showed that resveratrol induced cell senescence along with an increase of SA-β-Gal activity and inhibition of colony formation in breast and lung cancer cells. The underlying mechanisms were that resveratrol induced ER-stress by increasing SIRT1 to promote p38MAPK expression and by reducing NO level to up-regulate DLC1 expression, and ER-stress further resulted in DNA damage and mitochondrial dysfunction, eventually leading to cancer cell senescence. Our findings on resveratrol's induction of cancer cell senescence via activating ER-stress through the SIRT1/p38MAPK and NO/DLC1 pathways provide a solid base for its clinical application and its preventive application as a food additive.

Abstract
Simple Summary The prevention and treatment of cancer is an ongoing medical challenge. In the context of personalized medicine, the well-studied polyphenol resveratrol could complement classical tumor therapy. It may affect key processes such as inflammation, angiogenesis, proliferation, metastasis, glucose metabolism, and apoptosis in various cancers because resveratrol acts as a multi-targeting agent by modulating multiple signal transduction pathways. This review article focuses on resveratrol’s ability to modify tumor glucose metabolism and its associated therapeutic capacity. Resveratrol reduces glucose uptake and glycolysis by affecting Glut1, PFK1, HIF-1α, ROS, PDH, and the CamKKB/AMPK pathway. It also inhibits cell growth, invasion, and proliferation by targeting NF-kB, Sirt1, Sirt3, LDH, PI-3K, mTOR, PKM2, R5P, G6PD, TKT, talin, and PGAM. In addition, resveratrol induces apoptosis by targeting integrin, p53, LDH, and FAK. In conclusion, resveratrol has many potentials to intervene in tumor processes if bioavailability can be increased and this natural compound can be used selectively. Abstract Tumor cells develop several metabolic reprogramming strategies, such as increased glucose uptake and utilization via aerobic glycolysis and fermentation of glucose to lactate; these lead to a low pH environment in which the cancer cells thrive and evade apoptosis. These characteristics of tumor cells are known as the Warburg effect. Adaptive metabolic alterations in cancer cells can be attributed to mutations in key metabolic enzymes and transcription factors. The features of the Warburg phenotype may serve as promising markers for the early detection and treatment of tumors. Besides, the glycolytic process of tumors is reversible and could represent a therapeutic target. So-called mono-target therapies are often unsafe and ineffective, and have a high prevalence of recurrence. Their success is hindered by the ability of tumor cells to simultaneously develop multiple chemoresistance pathways. Therefore, agents that modify several cellular targets, such as energy restriction to target tumor cells specifically, have therapeutic potential. Resveratrol, a natural active polyphenol found in grapes and red wine and used in many traditional medicines, is known for its ability to target multiple components of signaling pathways in tumors, leading to the suppression of cell proliferation, activation of apoptosis, and regression in tumor growth. Here, we describe current knowledge on the various mechanisms by which resveratrol modulates glucose metabolism, its potential as an imitator of caloric restriction, and its therapeutic capacity in tumors.

Abstract
Genetic mutations and abnormal gene regulation are key mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis. Nucleosomes, which consist of DNA wrapped around histone cores, represent the basic units of chromatin. The fifth amino group (Nε) of histone lysine residues is a common site for post-translational modifications (PTMs), and of these, acetylation is the second most common. Histone acetylation is modulated by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs), and is involved in the regulation of gene expression. Over the past two decades, numerous studies characterizing HDACs and HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) have provided novel and exciting insights concerning their underlying biological mechanisms and potential anti-cancer treatments. In this review, we detail the diverse structures of HDACs and their underlying biological functions, including transcriptional regulation, metabolism, angiogenesis, DNA damage response, cell cycle, apoptosis, protein degradation, immunity and other several physiological processes. We also highlight potential avenues to use HDACi as novel, precision cancer treatments.

Abstract
Avenanthramide C (AVC), found mainly in oats, mediates anti-inflammatory activities by reducing the anti-inflammatory cytokine levels. This study investigated the effects of AVC on hypoxia-induced cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in A549 cells. AVC suppressed the hypoxia-induced increase in COX-2 protein levels and promoter activity. We also observed that the effects of AVC were reversed by a SIRT1 inhibitor, indicating that the inhibitory effects of AVC on hypoxia-induced COX-2 expression are mediated by SIRT1. Therefore, AVC inhibits the hypoxic induction of COX-2 expression via SIRT1 activation. Our results suggest that AVC could be beneficial for preventing lung inflammation under hypoxia.

ERK Dephosphorylation through MKP1 Deacetylation by SIRT1 Attenuates RAS-Driven Tumorigenesis. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12040909.

Abstract
The role of Situin 1 (SIRT1) in tumorigenesis is still controversial due to its wide range of substrates, including both oncoproteins and tumor suppressors. A recent study has demonstrated that SIRT1 interferes in the Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS)-driven activation of the Raf-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase (MEK)-ERK pathway, thereby inhibiting tumorigenesis. However, the molecular mechanism of SIRT1 as a tumor suppressor in RAS-driven tumorigenesis has been less clearly determined. This study presents evidence that the ectopic expression of SIRT1 attenuates RAS- or MEK-driven ERK activation and reduces cellular proliferation and transformation in vitro. The attenuation of ERK activation by SIRT1 results from prompt dephosphorylation of ERK, while MEK activity remains unchanged. We identified that MKP1, a dual specific phosphatase for MAPK, was deacetylated by SIRT1. Deacetylation of MKP1 by direct interaction with SIRT1 increased the binding affinity to ERK which in turn facilitated inactivation of ERK. Taken together, these results suggest that SIRT1 would act as a tumor suppressor by modulating RAS-driven ERK activity through MKP1 deacetylation.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is now considered an important driving mechanism for chronic lung diseases, particularly chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Cellular senescence is due to replicative and stress-related senescence with activation of p53 and p16INK4a, respectively, leading to activation of p21CIP1 and cell cycle arrest. Senescent cells secrete multiple inflammatory proteins known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype, leading to low-grade chronic inflammation, which further drives senescence. Loss of key antiaging molecules sirtuin-1 and sirtuin-6 may be important in acceleration of aging and arises from oxidative stress reducing phosphatase PTEN (phosphatase tensin homolog), thereby activating PI3K (phosphoinositide-3-kinase) and mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin). MicroRNA-34a (miR-34a), which is regulated by PI3K-mTOR signaling, plays a pivotal role in reducing sirtuin-1/6, and its inhibition with an antagomir results in their restoration, reducing markers of senescence, reducing senescence-associated secretory phenotype, and reversing cell cycle arrest in epithelial cells from peripheral airways of patients with COPD. miR-570 is also involved in reduction of sirtuin-1 and cellular senescence and is activated by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. These miRNAs may be released from cells in extracellular vesicles that are taken up by other cells, thereby spreading senescence locally within the lung but also outside the lung through the circulation; this may account for comorbidities of COPD and other lung diseases. Understanding the mechanisms of cellular senescence may result in new treatments for chronic lung disease, either by inhibiting PI3K-mTOR signaling, by inhibiting specific miRNAs, or by deletion of senescent cells with senolytic therapies, already shown to be effective in experimental lung fibrosis.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is the standard care for patients with gastric cancer (GC); however, resistance to existing drugs has limited its success. The persistence of cancer stem cells (CSCs) is considered to be responsible for treatment failure. In this study, we demonstrated that SIRT1 expression was significantly downregulated in GC tissues, and that a low SIRT1 expression level indicated a poor prognosis in GC patients. We observed a suppressive role of SIRT1 in chemoresistance of GC both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, we found that SIRT1 eliminated CSC properties of GC cells. Mechanistically, SIRT1 exerted inhibitory activities on chemoresistance and CSC properties through FOXO3 and AMPK. Furthermore, a synergistic effect was revealed between FOXO3 and AMPK. AMPK promoted nuclear translocation of FOXO3 and enhanced its transcriptional activities. In addition, FOXO3 increased the expression level and activation of AMPKα by directly binding to its promoter and activating the transcription of AMPKα. Similar to SIRT1, low expression levels of p-AMPKα and FOXO3a are also related to the poor prognosis of GC patients. Moreover, we revealed a correlation between the expression levels of SIRT1, p-AMPKα, and FOXO3a. These findings indicated the importance of the SIRT1-AMPK/FOXO3 pathway in reversing chemoresistance and CSC properties of GC. Thus, exploring efficient strategies to activate the SIRT1-AMPK/FOXO3 pathway may lead to improving the survival of GC patients.

Abstract
Sirtuin family members are characterized by either mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase or deacylase activity and are linked to various cancer-related biological pathways as regulators of transcriptional progression. Sirtuins play fundamental roles in carcinogenesis and maintenance of the malignant phenotype, mainly participating in cancer cell viability, apoptosis, metastasis, and tumorigenesis. Although sirtuin family members have a high degree of homology, they may play different roles in various kinds of cancer. This review highlights their fundamental roles in tumorigenesis and cancer development and provides a critical discussion of their dual roles in cancer, namely, as tumor promoters or tumor suppressors.

Abstract
Sirtuins are a family of protein deacylases and ADP-ribosyl-transferases, homologs to the yeast SIR2 protein. Seven sirtuin paralogs have been described in mammals, with different subcellular locations, targets, enzymatic activities, and regulatory mechanisms. All sirtuins share NAD+ as substrate, placing them as central metabolic hubs with strong relevance in lifespan, metabolism, and cancer development. Much effort has been devoted to studying the roles of sirtuins in cancer, providing a wealth of data on sirtuins roles in mouse models and humans. Also, extensive data are available on the effects of pharmacological modulation of sirtuins in cancer development. Here, we present a comprehensive and organized resume of all the existing evidence linking every sirtuin with cancer development. From our analysis, we conclude that sirtuin modulation after tumor initiation results in unpredictable outcomes in most tumor types. On the contrary, all genetic and pharmacological models indicate that sirtuins activation prior to tumor initiation can constitute a powerful preventive strategy.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential biomolecule involved in many critical processes. Its role as both a driver of energy production and a signaling molecule underscores its importance in health and disease. NAD+ signaling impacts multiple processes that are dysregulated in cancer, including DNA repair, cell proliferation, differentiation, redox regulation, and oxidative stress. Distribution of NAD+ is highly compartmentalized, with each subcellular NAD+ pool differentially regulated and preferentially involved in distinct NAD+-dependent signaling or metabolic events. Emerging evidence suggests that targeting NAD+ metabolism is likely to repress many specific mechanisms underlying tumor development and progression, including proliferation, survival, metabolic adaptations, invasive capabilities, heterotypic interactions with the tumor microenvironment, and stress response including notably DNA maintenance and repair. Here we provide a comprehensive overview of how compartmentalized NAD+ metabolism in mitochondria, nucleus, cytosol, and extracellular space impacts cancer formation and progression, along with a discussion of the therapeutic potential of NAD+-targeting drugs in cancer.

Revisiting Histone Deacetylases in Human Tumorigenesis: The Paradigm of Urothelial Bladder Cancer. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20061291. [PMID: 30875794 PMCID: PMC6471041 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20061291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2019] [Revised: 03/07/2019] [Accepted: 03/08/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Urinary bladder cancer is a common malignancy, being characterized by substantial patient mortality and management cost. Its high somatic-mutation frequency and molecular heterogeneity usually renders tumors refractory to the applied regimens. Hitherto, methotrexate-vinblastine-adriamycin-cisplatin and gemcitabine-cisplatin represent the backbone of systemic chemotherapy. However, despite the initial chemosensitivity, the majority of treated patients will eventually develop chemoresistance, which severely reduces their survival expectancy. Since chromatin regulation genes are more frequently mutated in muscle-invasive bladder cancer, as compared to other epithelial tumors, targeted therapies against chromatin aberrations in chemoresistant clones may prove beneficial for the disease. “Acetyl-chromatin” homeostasis is regulated by the opposing functions of histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). The HDAC/SIRT (super-)family contains 18 members, which are divided in five classes, with each family member being differentially expressed in normal urinary bladder tissues. Since a strong association between irregular HDAC expression/activity and tumorigenesis has been previously demonstrated, we herein attempt to review the accumulated published evidences that implicate HDACs/SIRTs as critical regulators in urothelial bladder cancer. Moreover, the most extensively investigated HDAC inhibitors (HDACis) are also analyzed, and the respective clinical trials are also described. Interestingly, it seems that HDACis should be preferably used in drug-combination therapeutic schemes, including radiation.
