ABSTRACT
Purpose:
Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) dependent deacetylase, which plays an essential role in cellular metabolism, autophagy, and chromatin accessibility. Our study aimed to determine its role in controlling corneal epithelial wound healing (CEWH).Methods:
Corneal epithelial (CE)-specific Sirt1 deletion mice were created using the Cre-lox system. CE debridement was used to create a CEWH model. Corneal epithelial cells (CECs) were collected with an Algerbrush. Western blot analysis and RT-qPCR were performed to determine protein and mRNA expression levels. SiRNA transfection technology knocked down SIRT1 and cortactin expression levels in human corneal epithelial cells. Scratch wound assay, MTS assay, and TUNEL assay determined cell migratory, proliferative, and apoptotic behavior, respectively. Co-immunoprecipitation probed for SIRT1 and cortactin interaction. Immunofluorescence staining evaluated the location and expression levels of SIRT1, cortactin, acetylated-cortactin, and F-actin.Results:
During CEWH, increases in SIRT1 mRNA and protein expression levels accompanied the downregulation of acetylated lysine in non-histone proteins. The loss of SIRT1 function reduced cell migration and, in turn, delayed CEWH. SIRT1 bound to and deacetylated cortactin in vitro and in vivo. Loss of either SIRT1 or cortactin suppressed wound edge lamellipodia formation, which is consistent with migration retardation.Conclusions:
During CEWH, SIRT1 upregulation and its modification of cortactin boost CEC migration by increasing the development of lamellipodia at the wound edge. Therefore SIRT1 may serve as a potential target to enhance CEWH.
