Wu Y, Chen W, Miao H, Xu T. SIRT7 promotes the proliferation and migration of anaplastic thyroid cancer cells by regulating the desuccinylation of KIF23. BMC Cancer 2024; 24:210. [PMID: 38360598 PMCID: PMC10870498 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-024-11965-9] [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: 08/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was designed to investigate the regulatory effects of kinesin family member (KIF) 23 on anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) cell viability and migration and the underlying mechanism. METHODS Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to analyze the levels of KIF23 in ATC cells. Besides, the effects of KIF23 and sirtuin (SIRT) 7 on the viability and migration of ATC cells were detected using cell counting kit-8, transwell and wound healing assays. The interaction between SIRT7 and KIF23 was evaluated by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assay. The succinylation (succ) of KIF23 was analyzed by western blot. RESULTS The KIF23 expression was upregulated in ATC cells. Silencing of KIF23 suppressed the viability and migration of 8505C and BCPAP cells. The KIF23-succ level was decreased in ATC cells. SIRT7 interacted with KIF23 to inhibit the succinylation of KIF23 at K537 site in human embryonic kidney (HEK)-293T cells. Overexpression of SIRT7 enhanced the protein stability of KIF23 in HEK-293T cells. Besides, overexpression of KIF23 promoted the viability and migration of 8505C and BCPAP cells, which was partly blocked by silenced SIRT7. CONCLUSIONS SIRT7 promoted the proliferation and migration of ATC cells by regulating the desuccinylation of KIF23.

Abstract
To overcome the problem of antitumor agent toxicity for normal cells, a combined therapy using drugs with synergistic effects seems to be more effective. We investigated the molecular mechanisms of the sensitization of tumor cells resistant and sensitive to histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) upon etoposide treatment together with the HDACi sodium butyrate (NaBut). We showed that NaBut enhances the cytotoxic effect of etoposide in both HDACi-sensitive and HDACi-resistant cells due to the accumulation of the Bax protein and the dissociation of Ku70-Bax inhibitory complexes. In HDACi-resistant cells, NaBut causes the cytoplasmic accumulation of Bax dissociated from mitochondria in complexes with Ku70 proteins. The increased phosphorylation of the pro-apoptotic Bad protein due to the NaBut-induced activation of Erk and Akt kinases is one of the possible reasons for the accumulation of Bax in the cytoplasm. Despite the inactivation of Bax in HDACi-resistant cells, its accumulation in the cytoplasm upon NaBut treatment makes it possible to enhance the apoptotic response against agents activating the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis. Thus, HDACis involved in combined therapy mediate the sensitization of tumor cells to genotoxic drugs, regardless of the cells' resistance to HDACis.

Abstract
Despite, melatonin is mainly known as a regulatory factor for circadian rhythm, its notable role in other fundamental biological processes, such as redox homeostasis and programmed cell death, has been found. In this line, a growing body of evidence indicated that melatonin could apply an inhibitory effect on the tumorigenic processes. Hence, melatonin might be considered an efficient adjuvant agent for cancer treatment. Besides, the physiological and pathological functions of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in various disease, particularly cancers, have been expanded over the past two decades. It is well-established that ncRNAs can modulate the gene expression at various levels, thereby, ncRNAs. can regulate the numerous biological processes, including cell proliferation, cell metabolism, apoptosis, and cell cycle. Recently, targeting the ncRNAs expression provides a novel insight in the therapeutic approaches for cancer treatment. Moreover, accumulating investigations have revealed that melatonin could impact the expression of different ncRNAs in a multiple disorders, including cancer. Therefore, in the precent study, we discuss the potential roles of melatonin in modulating the expression of ncRNAs and the related molecular pathways in different types of cancer. Also, we highlighted its importance in therapeutic application and translational medicine in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are nicotine adenine dinucleotide(+)-dependent histone deacetylases regulating critical signaling pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and are involved in numerous biological processes. Currently, seven mammalian homologs of yeast Sir2 named SIRT1 to SIRT7 have been identified. Increasing evidence has suggested the vital roles of seven members of the SIRT family in health and disease conditions. Notably, this protein family plays a variety of important roles in cellular biology such as inflammation, metabolism, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, etc., thus, it is considered a potential therapeutic target for different kinds of pathologies including cancer, cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and other conditions. Moreover, identification of SIRT modulators and exploring the functions of these different modulators have prompted increased efforts to discover new small molecules, which can modify SIRT activity. Furthermore, several randomized controlled trials have indicated that different interventions might affect the expression of SIRT protein in human samples, and supplementation of SIRT modulators might have diverse impact on physiological function in different participants. In this review, we introduce the history and structure of the SIRT protein family, discuss the molecular mechanisms and biological functions of seven members of the SIRT protein family, elaborate on the regulatory roles of SIRTs in human disease, summarize SIRT inhibitors and activators, and review related clinical studies.

Abstract
Enzymes of the silent information regulator (SIRT) family exert crucial roles in basic cellular physiological processes including apoptosis, metabolism, ageing, and cell cycle progression. They critically contribute to promoting or inhibiting cancers such as glioma. In the present study, a new gene signature of this family was identified for use in risk assessment and stratification of glioma patients. To this end, the transcriptome and relevant clinical records of patients diagnosed with glioma were obtained from the Cancer Genomic Atlas (TCGA) and the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA). LASSO regression and multivariate Cox analyses were used to establish the signature. Using Kaplan-Meier analyses, overall survival (OS) was assessed and compared between a training and an external test datasets which showed lower OS in patients with high risk of glioma compared to those with low risk. Further, ROC curve analyses indicated that the SIRT-based signature had the desired accuracy and universality for evaluating the prognosis of glioma patients. Using univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, the SIRT-based signature was confirmed as an independent prognostic factor applicable to subjects in the TCGA and CGGA databases. We also developed an OS nomogram including gender, age, risk score, pathological grade, and IDH status for clinical decision-making purposes. ssGSEA analysis showed a higher score for various immune subgroups (e.g., CD8+ T cells, DC, and TIL) in samples from high-risk patients, compared to those of low-risk ones. qPCR and western blotting confirmed the dysregulated expression of SIRTs in gliomas. Taken together, we developed a new signature on the basis of five SIRT family genes, which can help accurately predict OS of glioma patients. In addition, the findings of the present study suggest that this characteristic is associated with differences in immune status and infiltration levels of various immune cells in the tumor microenvironment.

A Selective Histone Deacetylase Inhibitor Induces Autophagy and Cell Death via SCNN1A Downregulation in Glioblastoma Cells. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14184537. [PMID: 36139696 PMCID: PMC9496778 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14184537] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 09/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a grade IV, highly malignant brain tumor. Because of the heterogeneity of GBM, a multitarget drug is a rational strategy for GBM treatment. Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) regulate the expression of numerous genes involved in cell death, apoptosis, and tumorigenesis. We found that the HDAC4/HDAC5 inhibitor LMK235 at 0.5 µM significantly reduced the cell viability and colony formation of patient-derived, temozolomide-resistant GBM P#5 TMZ-R, U-87 MG, and T98G cells. Moreover, LMK235 also significantly increased TUBA acetylation, which is an indicator of HDAC inhibition. Interestingly, LMK235 induced MAP1LC3 robust readout and puncta accumulation but did not enhance PARP1 cleavage or the proportion of annexin V-positive cells, suggesting that LMK235-induced cell death occurred via autophagy activation. Further RNA-seq analysis after LMK235 treatment showed that 597 different expression genes compared to control. After bioinformatic analysis by KEGG and STRING, we focused on 34 genes and validated their mRNA expression by qPCR. Further validation showed that 2 µM LMK235 significantly reduced the mRNA and protein expression of SCNN1A. Cell viability of SCNN1A-silenced cells were reduced, but cells were rescued while treated with an autophagy inhibitor bafilomycin A1. Conclusively, SCNN1A plays a role in LMK235-induced autophagy and cell death in GBM cells.

Abstract
Sirtuin 3, a member of the mammalian sirtuin family of proteins, is involved in the regulation of multiple processes in cells. It is a major mitochondrial NAD+-dependent deacetylase with a broad range of functions, such as regulation of oxidative stress, reprogramming of tumor cell energy pathways, and metabolic homeostasis. One of the intriguing functions of sirtuin 3 is the regulation of mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization, a key step in apoptosis initiation/progression. Moreover, sirtuin 3 is involved in the execution of various cell death modalities, which makes sirtuin 3 a possible regulator of crosstalk between them. This review is focused on the role of sirtuin 3 as a target for tumor cell elimination and how mitochondria and reactive oxygen species (ROS) are implicated in this process.

Abstract
Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), the main family member of mitochondrial deacetylase, targets the majority of substrates controlling mitochondrial biogenesis via lysine deacetylation and modulates important cellular functions such as energy metabolism, reactive oxygen species production and clearance, oxidative stress, and aging. Deletion of SIRT3 has a deleterious effect on mitochondrial biogenesis, thus leading to the defect in mitochondrial function and insufficient ATP production. Imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics leads to excessive mitochondrial biogenesis, dampening mitochondrial function. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in several diseases related to aging, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC1α) launches mitochondrial biogenesis through activating nuclear respiratory factors. These factors act on genes, transcribing and translating mitochondrial DNA to generate new mitochondria. PGC1α builds a bridge between SIRT3 and mitochondrial biogenesis. This review described the involvement of SIRT3 and mitochondrial dynamics, particularly mitochondrial biogenesis in aging-related diseases, and further illustrated the role of the signaling events between SIRT3 and mitochondrial biogenesis in the pathological process of aging-related diseases.

Abstract
With respect to structural and functional cardiac disorders, heart failure (HF) is divided into HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Oxidative stress contributes to the development of both HFrEF and HFpEF. Identification of a broad spectrum of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced pathways in preclinical models has provided new insights about the importance of ROS in HFrEF and HFpEF development. While current treatment strategies mostly concern neuroendocrine inhibition, recent data on ROS-induced metabolic pathways in cardiomyocytes may offer additional treatment strategies and targets for both of the HF forms. The purpose of this article is to summarize the results achieved in the fields of: (1) ROS importance in HFrEF and HFpEF pathophysiology, and (2) treatments for inhibiting ROS-induced pathways in HFrEF and HFpEF patients. ROS-producing pathways in cardiomyocytes, ROS-activated pathways in different HF forms, and treatment options to inhibit their action are also discussed.

Abstract
Ischemic cerebrovascular disease is the main cause of disability due to stroke. This study aimed to investigate the function of miR-1224 in OGD/R-induced hippocampal neuron apoptosis, as well as the regulatory mechanism of miR-1224 in ischemic cerebrovascular disease. The oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) model of primary mouse hippocampal neurons was established. RT-qPCR detected miR-1224, Ku70 and Ku86 levels. Western blotting was applied to measure the expression of Ku70/86 and apoptosis related proteins. Flow cytometry was used to assess apoptosis. JC-1 fluorescence was performed to test the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in neurons. The double luciferase reporter assay was performed to investigate the relationship between miR-1224 and Ku70/86. OGD/R induced the apoptosis and mitochondrial injury in neuronal cells, while miR-1224 downregulation or Ku70/86 upregulation reversed this phenomenon. Meanwhile, miR-1224 negatively regulated the expression of Ku70/86 in neuronal cells through directly targeting Ku70/86. Furthermore, knockdown of Ku70/86 significantly reversed the inhibitory effect of miR-1224 silencing on apoptosis and mitochondrial injury in OGD/R-treated neuronal cells. Our findings indicated that miR-1224 downregulation suppressed OGD/R-induced hippocampal neuron apoptosis by targeting Ku protein, suggesting that miR-1224 could serve as a new target for ischemic cerebrovascular disease treatment.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non-coding RNA molecules with a length of 18-25 nucleotides, have been shown to be involved in mediating various malignant properties of GBM, including growth, invasion and angiogenesis. Here, we investigated whether miRNAs might be involved in mediating the suppression of malignant properties of GBM by melatonin (MEL), an amine hormone secreted by the pineal gland. Sequencing was performed to screen specifically for miRNAs induced by MEL in U87 and an orthotopically xenografted primary GBM cell line, GBM#P3. MiR-6858-5p was the most significantly up-regulated miR in GBM cell lines in response to MEL (~5 × ). Transfection of a mimic of miR-6858-5p into both cell lines led to a decrease in viability of ~ 50% at 72 h, confirming a suppressive role for miR-6858-5p in GBM. In contrast, an inhibitor of miR-6858-5p rescued GBM cells from MEL suppression of proliferation, migration and invasion. Analysis using Targetscan yielded candidate mRNAs targeted by miR-6858-5p, some of which are involved in the SIRT/AKT signaling pathway. In cells transfected with a mimic or an inhibitor of miR-6858-5p, levels of SIRT3 and downstream components of the AKT signaling pathway were suppressed or up-regulated, respectively, both in vitro and in an in vivo orthotopic xenograft model. Our results elucidated a novel molecular mechanism underlying MEL suppression of GBM, highlighting a role for miRNAs, and provide a potential therapeutic strategy for GBM.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SIRT) are NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases that play an important role in the
functioning of the human body. They participate in numerous processes taking place in cells,
including in the post-translational modification of proteins, silencing gene transcription,
inducing repair processes, as well as in the regulation of metabolic processes. Sirtuins have
also been shown to play an important role in reducing the level of reactive oxygen species
as well as in stimulating cell growth, aging and death. Such a wide range of processes, which
are affected by sirtuins, have recently made sirtuins the object of many studies aimed at
a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of their action and the role they play.
The aim of our study was to collect and systematize information on sirtuins, mainly from
the last 10 years, both regarding the human body and based on the results of research on
animal models or cell lines. The article discusses the structure, function and biological role
of sirtuins in cellular processes.

Sirtuin 3 protects against anesthesia/surgery-induced cognitive decline in aged mice by suppressing hippocampal neuroinflammation. J Neuroinflammation 2021; 18:41. [PMID: 33541361 PMCID: PMC7863360 DOI: 10.1186/s12974-021-02089-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 75] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2020] [Accepted: 01/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a very common complication that might increase the morbidity and mortality of elderly patients after surgery. However, the mechanism of POCD remains largely unknown. The NAD-dependent deacetylase protein Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is located in the mitochondria and regulates mitochondrial function. SIRT3 is the only sirtuin that specifically plays a role in extending lifespan in humans and is associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of SIRT3 on anesthesia/surgery-induced cognitive impairment in aged mice. METHODS SIRT3 expression levels were decreased after surgery. For the interventional study, an adeno-associated virus (AAV)-SIRT3 vector or an empty vector was microinjected into hippocampal CA1 region before anesthesia/surgery. Western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, and enzyme-linked immune-sorbent assay (ELISA) were used to measure the oxidative stress response and downstream microglial activation and proinflammatory cytokines, and Golgi staining and long-term potentiation (LTP) recording were applied to evaluate synaptic plasticity. RESULTS Overexpression of SIRT3 in the CA1 region attenuated anesthesia/surgery-induced learning and memory dysfunction as well as synaptic plasticity dysfunction and the oxidative stress response (superoxide dismutase [SOD] and malondialdehyde [MDA]) in aged mice with POCD. In addition, microglia activation (ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 [Iba1]) and neuroinflammatory cytokine levels (tumor necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], interleukin [IL]-1β and IL-6) were regulated after anesthesia/surgery in a SIRT3-dependent manner. CONCLUSION The results of the current study demonstrate that SIRT3 has a critical effect in the mechanism of POCD in aged mice by suppressing hippocampal neuroinflammation and reveal that SIRT3 may be a promising therapeutic and diagnostic target for POCD.

Abstract
Heart failure causes significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. The underlying mechanisms and pathological changes associated with heart failure are exceptionally complex. Despite recent advances in heart failure research, treatment outcomes remain poor. The sirtuin family member sirtuin-3 (SIRT3) is involved in several key biological processes, including ATP production, catabolism, and reactive oxygen species detoxification. In addition to its role in metabolism, SIRT3 regulates cell death and survival and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Emerging evidence also shows that SIRT3 can protect cardiomyocytes from hypertrophy, ischemia-reperfusion injury, cardiac fibrosis, and impaired angiogenesis. In this review article, we summarize the recent advances in SIRT3 research and discuss the role of SIRT3 in heart failure. We also discuss the potential use of SIRT3 as a therapeutic target in heart failure.

Abstract
Silence information regulator 1 (SIRT1), a member of the sirtuin family, targets histones and many non-histone proteins and participates in various physiological functions. The enzymatic activity of SIRT1 is decreased in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), which may reduce their ability to resist neuronal damage caused by various neurotoxins. As far as we know, SIRT1 can induce autophagy by regulating autophagy related proteins such as AMP-activated protein kinase, light chain 3, mammalian target of rapamycin, and forkhead transcription factor 1. Furthermore, SIRT1 can regulate mitochondrial function and inhibit oxidative stress mainly by maintaining peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) in a deacetylated state and thus maintaining a constant level of PGC-1α. Other studies have demonstrated that SIRT1 may play a role in the pathophysiology of PD by regulating neuroinflammation. SIRT1 deacetylases nuclear factor-kappa B and thus reduces its transcriptional activity, inhibits inducible nitric oxide synthase expression, and decreases tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 levels. SIRT1 can also upregulate heat shock protein 70 by deacetylating heat shock factor 1 to increase the degradation of α-synuclein oligomers. Few studies have focused on the relationship between SIRT1 single nucleotide polymorphisms and PD risk, so this topic requires further research. Based on the neuroprotective effects of SIRT1 on PD, many in vitro and in vivo experiments have demonstrated that some SIRT1 activators, notably resveratrol, have potential neuroprotective effects against dopaminergic neuronal damage caused by various neurotoxins. Thus, SIRT1 plays a critical role in PD development and might be a potential target for PD therapy.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary brain tumor in adults, and the most lethal form of glioma, characterized by variable histopathology, aggressiveness and poor clinical outcome and prognosis. GBMs constitute a challenge for oncologists because of their molecular heterogeneity, extensive invasion, and tendency to relapse. Glioma cells demonstrate a variety of deregulated genomic pathways and extensive interplay with epigenetic alterations. Epigenetic modifications have emerged as essential players in GBM research, with biomarker potential for tumor classification and prognosis and for drug targeting. Histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs) are crucial regulators of chromatin architecture and gene expression, playing a pivotal role in malignant transformation, tumor development and progression. Alteration in the expression of genes coding for lysine and arginine methyltransferases (G9a, SUV39H1 and SETDB1) and acetyltransferases and deacetylases (KAT6A, SIRT2, SIRT7, HDAC4, 6, 9) contribute to GBM pathogenesis. In addition, proteins of the sumoylation pathway are upregulated in GBM cell lines, including E1 (SAE1), E2 (Ubc9) components, and a SUMO-specific protease (SENP1). Preclinical and clinical studies are currently in progress targeting epigenetic enzymes in gliomas, including a new generation of histone deacetylase (HDAC), protein arginine methyltransferase (PRMT) and bromodomain (BRD) inhibitors. Herein, we provide an update on recent advances in glioma epigenetic research, focusing on the role of histone modifications and the use of epigenetic therapy as a valid treatment option for glioblastoma.

Abstract
Mitochondrial impairment is associated with progressive dopamine (DA) neuron degeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent findings highlight that Sirtuin-3 (SIRT3), a mitochondrial protein, is an oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylase and a key modulator in maintaining integrity and functions of mitochondria. SIRT3 plays vital roles in regulation of mitochondrial functions, including mitochondrial ATP generation and energy metabolism, anti-oxidant defense, and cell death and proliferation. SIRT3 can deacetylate the transcriptional factors and crosstalk with different signaling pathways to cooperatively modulate mitochondrial functions and regulate defensive mitochondrial quality control (QC) systems. Down-regulated NAD+ level and decreased SIRT3 activity are related to aging process and has been pathologically linked to PD pathogenesis. Further, SIRT3 can bind and deacetylate PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) and PD protein 2 E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (Parkin) to facilitate mitophagy. Leucine Rich Repeat Kinase 2 (LRRK2)-G2019S mutation in PD is linked to SIRT3 impairment. Furthermore, SIRT3 is inversely associated with α-synuclein aggregation and DA neuron degeneration in PD. SIRT3 chemical activators and NAD+ precursors can up-regulate SIRT3 activity to protect against DA neuron degeneration in PD models. Taken together, SIRT3 is a promising PD therapeutic target and studies of SIRT3 functional modulators with neuroprotective capability will be of clinical interest.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been found to be associated with neuronal inflammation; however, no effective drug is available to attenuate neuroinflammation via sustaining mitochondrial function. In the current study, experiments were performed to understand the beneficial effects of mitochonic acid 5 (MA-5) on tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-mediated neuronal injury and mitochondrial damage. Our data illustrated that MA-5 pretreatment reduced inflammation response induced by TNF-α in CATH.a cells. Molecular investigations demonstrated that MA-5 pretreatment repressed oxidative stress, inhibited endoplasmic reticulum stress, sustained cellular energy metabolism, and blocked cell apoptosis induced by TNF-α stress. Further, we found that MA-5 treatment elevated the expression of Sirtuin 3 (Sirt3) and this effect was dependent on the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway. Blockade of AMPK abolished the promotive action of MA-5 on Sirt3 and thus mediated mitochondrial damage and cell death. Besides, we also found that MA-5 treatment augmented Parkin-related mitophagy and increased mitophagy promoted CATH.a cells survival via improving mitochondrial function. Knockdown of Parkin abolished the beneficial action of MA-5 on mitochondrial homeostasis and CATH.a cell survival. Altogether, our results confirm that MA-5 is an effective drug to attenuate neuroinflammation via sustaining mitochondrial damage and promoting CATH.a cell survival. The protective action of MA-5 on neuronal damage is associated with Parkin-related mitophagy and the activation of AMPK-Sirt3 pathways.
