ABSTRACT
This study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of Sirt1 in the pathophysiological process of OA. Safranine O and HE staining were utilized to identify pathological changes in the cartilage tissue. Immunohistochemistry was employed to evaluate the expression levels of proteins. IL-1ß treatment and TamCartSirt1flox/flox mice were utilized to induce OA model both in vitro and in vivo. Key autophagy-related transcription factors, autophagy-related genes, and chondrocyte extracellular matrix (ECM) breakdown enzyme markers were examined using multi assays. Immunofluorescence staining revealed subcellular localization and gene expression patterns. ChIP assay and Co-immunoprecipitation assay were conducted to investigate the interactions between FoxO1 and the promoter regions of Atg7 and Sirt1. Our results demonstrate that Sirt1 deficiency exhibited inhibitory effects on ECM synthesis and autophagy, as well as exacerbated angiogenesis. Moreover, Atg7, Foxo1, and Sirt1 could form a protein complex. Sirt1 was observed to facilitate nuclear translocation of FoxO1, enhancing its transcriptional activity. Furthermore, FoxO1 was found to bind to the promoter regions of Atg7 and Sirt1, potentially regulating their expression. This study provides valuable insights into the involvement of Sirt1-Atg7-FoxO1 loop in OA, opening new avenues for targeted therapeutic interventions aiming to mitigate cartilage degradation and restore joint function.
