ABSTRACT
Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), a class III histone deacetylase, retards aging and plays roles in cellular oxidative stress injury (OSI). However, the biological context in which SIRT1 promotes oxidative injury is not fully understood. Here, we show that SIRT1 essentially mediates hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced cytotoxicity in human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC). In HUVECs, SIRT1 protein expression was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner after H2O2 treatment, whereas the acetylation levels of the NF-κB p65 subunit and p53 were decreased. EX527 (a specific SIRT1 inhibitor) conferred protection to the HUVECs against H2O2, as indicated by an improved cell viability, adhesion, an enhanced migratory ability, a decreased apoptotic index, decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and reductions in several biochemical parameters. Immunofluorescence and Western blot analyses demonstrated that H2O2 treatment up-regulated SIRT1, phosphorylated-JNK (p-JNK), p-p38MAPK, and p-ERK expression. EX527 pretreatment reversed these effects on SIRT1, p-JNK, and p-p38MAPK but further increased the p-ERK levels. Similar results were confirmed in SIRT1 siRNA experiments. In summary, SIRT1 signaling pathway inhibition imparts protection against acute endothelial OSI, and modulation of MAPKs (JNK, p38MAPK, and ERK) may be involved in the protective effect of SIRT1 inhibition.
