AI Article Synopsis

  • The study explores how Sirt1, a gene linked to aging and diseases like osteoarthritis (OA), affects the development and progression of OA, particularly through the P53/P21 pathway.* -
  • Mice lacking Sirt1 exhibited accelerated OA symptoms, including increased cellular aging markers and worse cartilage health, especially after induced injuries.* -
  • The researchers found that Sirt1 directly interacts with P53, and inhibiting P53 can reduce OA progression, revealing a potential therapeutic target for managing OA.*

Article Abstract

Sirt1 involved in cellular aging and aging-related diseases, including osteoarthritis (OA). Our previous study showed Sirt1 played a role in the pathogenesis of OA, however, the underlying mechanisms are still poorly elicited. In this study, we investigated the role of Sirt1 in epigenetically regulating P53/P21 pathway in a Sirt1 loss model. Sirt1 deletion male mice (n = 10) with destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) were used to observe its role on OA development. Then, the relationships between SIRT1 and P53 were detected by Coimmunoprecipitation (CoIP), and the gain-off function of P53 gene was indicated by P53 activators and inhibitors in vitro. Finally, human cartilage samples from patients with OA were collected. Sirt1 deletion mice displayed a spontaneous OA development, manifesting severe chondrocytes hypertrophy markers MMP13 and ADAMTS5, highly expressed P53 and P21. Strikingly, surgery-induced meniscus injury promoted the OA pathogenesis and apoptosis in Sirt1 deficient mice. Ultimately, our CoIP data demonstrated that Sirt1 directly interacted with P53 in vitro. However inhibition of P53 alleviated OA progression. We also observed that chondrocyte apoptosis and P53 increased in osteoarthritis (OA) progression with a declining expression of Sirt1 in human cartilage. Loss of Sirt1 in cartilage led to accelerated OA pathogenesis via aberrant activation of p53/p21 mediated senescence associated secretory phenotype, hypertrophy and apoptosis.

The circadian clock regulates mitochondrial function and affects time-dependent metabolic responses to exercise. The present study aimed to determine the effects of aerobic exercise timing at the light-dark phase on the proteins expression of the circadian clock, mitochondrial dynamics, and, NAD-SIRT1-PPARα axis in skeletal muscle of high-fat diet-induced diabetic mice. In this experimental study, thirty male mice were randomly assigned into two groups based on time: the early light phase, ZT3, and the early dark phase, ZT15, and three groups at each time: (1) Healthy Control (HC), (2) Diabetic Control (DC), and (3) Diabetic + Exercise (DE).

Background: Low-grade glioma (LGG) is a slow-growing but invasive tumor that affects brain function. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play a critical role in gene regulation and tumor progression. This study aims to develop a prognostic model based on HDAC-related genes to aid in risk stratification and predict therapeutic responses.

Ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation is a major physical factor that induces structural changes in human skin. The aim of this study was to determine whether the novel silent information regulator 1 (sirtuin 1 SIRT1) protein activator, penilumamide, exerted any protective effects against UVB-induced skin damage using human HaCaT keratinocytes as a model. Enzymatic assays were performed to determine the SIRT1-activating ability of penilumamide, which was compared with that of resveratrol, a potent natural product SIRT1 activator with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
