Age‐related hearing loss (ARHL) is a major neurodegenerative disorder and the leading cause of communication deficit in the elderly population, which remains largely untreated. The development of ARHL is a multifactorial event that includes both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Recent studies suggest that NAD+/NADH ratio may play a critical role in cellular senescence by regulating sirtuins, PARP‐1, and PGC‐1α. Nonetheless, the beneficial effect of direct modulation of cellular NAD+ levels on aging and age‐related diseases has not been studied, and the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. Herein, we investigated the effect of β‐lapachone (β‐lap), a known plant‐derived metabolite that modulates cellular NAD+ by conversion of NADH to NAD+ via the enzymatic action of NADH: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) on ARHL in C57BL/6 mice. We elucidated that the reduction of cellular NAD+ during the aging process was an important contributor for ARHL; it facilitated oxidative stress and pro‐inflammatory responses in the cochlear tissue through regulating sirtuins that alter various signaling pathways, such as NF‐κB, p53, and IDH2. However, augmentation of NAD+ by β‐lap effectively prevented ARHL and accompanying deleterious effects through reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, sustaining mitochondrial function, and promoting mitochondrial biogenesis in rodents. These results suggest that direct regulation of cellular NAD+ levels by pharmacological agents may be a tangible therapeutic option for treating various age‐related diseases, including ARHL.  相似文献

热量限制(caloric restriction, CR)可以引起细胞、生物体寿命延长和降低衰老相关疾病的发生,其中Sirtuin起着关键作用.Sirtuin将机体能量代谢和基因表达调控相偶联,通过赖氨酸去乙酰化改变蛋白质的活性和稳定性,从而调节衰老进程.酵母中度CR影响其复制寿命和时序寿命,主要依赖于激活Sir2,增加细胞内NAD+/NADH的比例和调节尼克酰胺浓度来实现.类似的机制也存在于秀丽线虫和果蝇中.哺乳动物在CR条件下SIRT1蛋白表达应答性上升,细胞中NAM磷酸基转移酶能够直接影响NAM和NAD+浓度,并影响SIRT1活性.NO表达增加能导致SIRT1上调和线粒体合成增加.SIRT1可能通过改变组蛋白、p53、NES1、FOXO等底物蛋白的乙酰化影响到细胞和个体的衰老.表明不同生物体中的Sirtuin及其同源类似物在CR条件下对衰老进程和寿命都起着非常重要的作用.  相似文献

The dietary polyphenolic compound resveratrol, by activating the protein deacetylase enzyme silent information regulator 2/sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), prolongs life span in evolutionarily distant organisms and may mimic the cytoprotective effects of dietary restriction. The present study was designed to elucidate the effects of resveratrol on cigarette smoke-induced vascular oxidative stress and inflammation, which is a clinically highly relevant model of accelerated vascular aging. Cigarette smoke exposure of rats impaired the acetylcholine-induced relaxation of carotid arteries, which could be prevented by resveratrol treatment. Smoking and in vitro treatment with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) increased reactive oxygen species production in rat arteries and cultured coronary arterial endothelial cells (CAECs), respectively, which was attenuated by resveratrol treatment. The smoking-induced upregulation of inflammatory markers (ICAM-1, inducible nitric oxide synthase, IL-6, and TNF-alpha) in rat arteries was also abrogated by resveratrol treatment. Resveratrol also inhibited CSE-induced NF-kappaB activation and inflammatory gene expression in CAECs. In CAECs, the aforementioned protective effects of resveratrol were abolished by knockdown of SIRT1, whereas the overexpression of SIRT1 mimicked the effects of resveratrol. Resveratrol treatment of rats protected aortic endothelial cells against cigarette smoking-induced apoptotic cell death. Resveratrol also exerted antiapoptotic effects in CSE-treated CAECs, which could be abrogated by knockdown of SIRT1. Resveratrol treatment also attenuated CSE-induced DNA damage in CAECs (comet assay). Thus resveratrol and SIRT1 exert antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic effects, which protect the endothelial cells against the adverse effects of cigarette smoking-induced oxidative stress. The vasoprotective effects of resveratrol will likely contribute to its antiaging action in mammals and may be especially beneficial in pathophysiological conditions associated with accelerated vascular aging.  相似文献

Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) plays a crucial role in endothelial cell functions. SIRT1, a NAD+-dependent deacetylase, is shown to regulate endothelial function and hence any alteration in endothelial SIRT1 will affect normal vascular physiology. Cigarette smoke (CS)-mediated oxidative stress is implicated in endothelial dysfunction. However, the role of SIRT1 in regulation of eNOS by CS and oxidants are not known. We hypothesized that CS-mediated oxidative stress downregulates SIRT1 leading to acetylation of eNOS which results in reduced nitric oxide (NO)-mediated signaling and endothelial dysfunction. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) exposed to cigarette smoke extract (CSE) and H2O2 showed decreased SIRT1 levels, activity, but increased phosphorylation concomitant with increased eNOS acetylation. Pre-treatment of endothelial cells with resveratrol significantly attenuated the CSE- and oxidant-mediated SIRT1 levels and eNOS acetylation. These findings suggest that CS- and oxidant-mediated reduction of SIRT1 is associated with acetylation of eNOS which have implications in endothelial dysfunction.  相似文献

AMPK activation is beneficial for cellular homeostasis and senescence prevention. However, the molecular events involved in AMPK activation are not well defined. In this study, we addressed the mechanism underlying the protective effect of AMPK on oxidative stress‐induced senescence. The results showed that AMPK was inactivated in senescent cells. However, pharmacological activation of AMPK by metformin and berberine significantly prevented the development of senescence and, accordingly, inhibition of AMPK by Compound C was accelerated. Importantly, AMPK activation prevented hydrogen peroxide‐induced impairment of the autophagic flux in senescent cells, evidenced by the decreased p62 degradation, GFP‐RFP‐LC3 cancellation, and activity of lysosomal hydrolases. We also found that AMPK activation restored the NAD+ levels in the senescent cells via a mechanism involving mostly the salvage pathway for NAD+ synthesis. In addition, the mechanistic relationship of autophagic flux and NAD+ synthesis and the involvement of mTOR and Sirt1 activities were assessed. In summary, our results suggest that AMPK prevents oxidative stress‐induced senescence by improving autophagic flux and NAD+ homeostasis. This study provides a new insight for exploring the mechanisms of aging, autophagy and NAD+ homeostasis, and it is also valuable in the development of innovative strategies to combat aging.  相似文献

ObjectivesAlcohol induces inflammation and oxidative stress, causing cell damages. We previously demonstrated that astaxanthin (ASTX), a xanthophyll carotenoid, exerts anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties in macrophages exposed to inflammatory insults. In this study, we investigated whether ASTX can inhibit alcohol-induced inflammation and oxidative stress in macrophages with the elucidation of mechanisms.MethodsRAW 264.7 macrophages and mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages were treated with 80 mM ethanol in the presence or absence of 25 μM of ASTX for 72 h. Subsequently, the expression of genes related to inflammation and oxidative stress, cellular reactive oxygen species accumulation, cellular NAD+ level and sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) activity were measured. In addition, RAW 264.7 macrophages were treated with sirtinol or resveratrol, which are known inhibitors or activators of SIRT1 activity, respectively, to determine the contribution of SIRT1 to the inhibitory effect of ASTX on inflammation and oxidative stress in macrophages exposed to ethanol.ResultsEthanol increased mRNA expression of interleukin (Il)-6, Il-1b and tumor necrosis factor α with a concomitant increase in nuclear translocation of nuclear factor κB, which was abolished by ASTX. Importantly, ethanol significantly decreased SIRT1 activity and cellular NAD+ level, but ASTX markedly attenuated the decreases in RAW 264.7 macrophages. Sirtinol increased the expression of proinflammatory genes in ethanol-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages. In contrast, resveratrol decreased proinflammatory gene expression.ConclusionsASTX showed anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties by inhibiting decreases in SIRT1 expression and cellular NAD+ level in ethanol-treated macrophages. Therefore, ASTX may be used for the prevention of alcohol-induced cell damages.  相似文献

Sirtuins are a class of NAD+-dependent deacetylases having beneficial health effects. This extensive review describes the numerous intracellular actions of the seven mammalian sirtuins, their protein targets, intracellular localization, the pathways they modulate, and their role in common diseases of aging. Selective pharmacological targeting of sirtuins is of current interest in helping to alleviate global disease burden. Since all sirtuins are activated by NAD+, strategies that boost NAD+ in cells are of interest. While most is known about SIRT1, the functions of the six other sirtuins are now emerging. Best known is the involvement of sirtuins in helping cells adapt energy output to match energy requirements. SIRT1 and some of the other sirtuins enhance fat metabolism and modulate mitochondrial respiration to optimize energy harvesting. The AMP kinase/SIRT1–PGC-1α–PPAR axis and mitochondrial sirtuins appear pivotal to maintaining mitochondrial function. Downregulation with aging explains much of the pathophysiology that accumulates with aging. Posttranslational modifications of sirtuins and their substrates affect specificity. Although SIRT1 activation seems not to affect life span, activation of some of the other sirtuins might. Since sirtuins are crucial to pathways that counter the decline in health that accompanies aging, pharmacological agents that boost sirtuin activity have clinical potential in treatment of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dementia, osteoporosis, arthritis, and other conditions. In cancer, however, SIRT1 inhibitors could have therapeutic value. Nutraceuticals such as resveratrol have a multiplicity of actions besides sirtuin activation. Their net health benefit and relative safety may have originated from the ability of animals to survive environmental changes by utilizing these stress resistance chemicals in the diet during evolution. Each sirtuin forms a key hub to the intracellular pathways affected.  相似文献

Interventions that slow aging and prevent chronic disease may come from an understanding of how dietary restriction (DR) increases lifespan. Mechanisms proposed to mediate DR longevity include reduced mTOR signaling, activation of the NAD+‐dependent deacylases known as sirtuins, and increases in NAD+ that derive from higher levels of respiration. Here, we explored these hypotheses in Caenorhabditis elegans using a new liquid feeding protocol. DR lifespan extension depended upon a group of regulators that are involved in stress responses and mTOR signaling, and have been implicated in DR by some other regimens [DAF‐16 (FOXO), SKN‐1 (Nrf1/2/3), PHA‐4 (FOXA), AAK‐2 (AMPK)]. Complete DR lifespan extension required the sirtuin SIR‐2.1 (SIRT1), the involvement of which in DR has been debated. The nicotinamidase PNC‐1, a key NAD+ salvage pathway component, was largely required for DR to increase lifespan but not two healthspan indicators: movement and stress resistance. Independently of pnc‐1, DR increased the proportion of respiration that is coupled to ATP production but, surprisingly, reduced overall oxygen consumption. We conclude that stress response and NAD+‐dependent mechanisms are each critical for DR lifespan extension, although some healthspan benefits do not require NAD+ salvage. Under DR conditions, NAD+‐dependent processes may be supported by a DR‐induced shift toward oxidative metabolism rather than an increase in total respiration.  相似文献

Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) deacetylase and poly(ADP-ribose)-polymerase-1 (PARP-1) respond to environmental cues, and both require NAD+ cofactor for their enzymatic activities. However, the functional link between environmental/oxidative stress-mediated activation of PARP-1 and SIRT1 through NAD+ cofactor availability is not known. We investigated whether NAD+ depletion by PARP-1 activation plays a role in environmental stimuli/oxidant-induced reduction in SIRT1 activity. Both H2O2 and cigarette smoke (CS) decreased intracellular NAD+ levels in vitro in lung epithelial cells and in vivo in lungs of mice exposed to CS. Pharmacological PARP-1 inhibition prevented oxidant-induced NAD+ loss and attenuated loss of SIRT1 activity. Oxidants decreased SIRT1 activity in lung epithelial cells; however increasing cellular NAD+ cofactor levels by PARP-1 inhibition or NAD+ precursors was unable to restore SIRT1 activity. SIRT1 was found to be carbonylated by CS, which was not reversed by PARP-1 inhibition or selective SIRT1 activator. Overall, these data suggest that environmental/oxidant stress-induced SIRT1 down-regulation and PARP-1 activation are independent events despite both enzymes sharing the same cofactor.  相似文献

Following discovery of NAD+-dependent reactions that control gene expression, cytoprotection, and longevity, there has been a renewed therapeutic interest in precursors, such as nicotinamide and its derivatives. We tested 20 analogues of nicotinamide for their ability to protect endothelial cells from peroxynitrite stress and their effect on poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity. Several nicotinamide derivatives protected endothelial cells from peroxynitrite-induced depletion of cellular NAD+ and ATP concentrations, but only some of these compounds inhibited PARP. We conclude that some nicotinamide derivatives provide protection of endothelial cells against peroxynitrite-induced injury independent of inhibition of PARP activity. Preservation of the NAD+ pool was a common effect of these compounds.  相似文献

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is an essential electron transporter in mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation. In genomic DNA, NAD+ also represents the sole substrate for the nuclear repair enzyme, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and the sirtuin family of NAD-dependent histone deacetylases. Age associated increases in oxidative nuclear damage have been associated with PARP-mediated NAD+ depletion and loss of SIRT1 activity in rodents. In this study, we further investigated whether these same associations were present in aging human tissue. Human pelvic skin samples were obtained from consenting patients aged between 15–77 and newborn babies (0–1 year old) (n = 49) previously scheduled for an unrelated surgical procedure. DNA damage correlated strongly with age in both males (p = 0.029; r = 0.490) and females (p = 0.003; r = 0.600) whereas lipid oxidation (MDA) levels increased with age in males (p = 0.004; r = 0.623) but not females (p = 0.3734; r = 0.200). PARP activity significantly increased with age in males (p<0.0001; r = 0.768) and inversely correlated with tissue NAD+ levels (p = 0.0003; r = −0.639). These associations were less evident in females. A strong negative correlation was observed between NAD+ levels and age in both males (p = 0.001; r = −0.706) and females (p = 0.01; r = −0.537). SIRT1 activity also negatively correlated with age in males (p = 0.007; r = −0.612) but not in females. Strong positive correlations were also observed between lipid peroxidation and DNA damage (p<0.0001; r = 0.4962), and PARP activity and NAD+ levels (p = 0.0213; r = 0.5241) in post pubescent males. This study provides quantitative evidence in support of the hypothesis that hyperactivation of PARP due to an accumulation of oxidative damage to DNA during aging may be responsible for increased NAD+ catabolism in human tissue. The resulting NAD+ depletion may play a major role in the aging process, by limiting energy production, DNA repair and genomic signalling.  相似文献

It is becoming increasingly apparent that the nucleus harbors metabolic enzymes that affect genetic transforming events. Here, we describe a nuclear isoform of lactate dehydrogenase (nLDH) and its ability to orchestrate histone deacetylation by controlling the availability of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), a key ingredient of the sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) deacetylase system. There was an increase in the expression of nLDH concomitant with the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the culture medium. Under oxidative stress, the NAD+ generated by nLDH resulted in the enhanced deacetylation of histones compared to the control hepatocytes despite no discernable change in the levels of SIRT1. There appeared to be an intimate association between nLDH and SIRT1 as these two enzymes co-immunoprecipitated. The ability of nLDH to regulate epigenetic modifications by manipulating NAD+ reveals an intricate link between metabolism and the processing of genetic information.  相似文献
