Neurological and Histological Consequences Induced by In Vivo Cerebral Oxidative Stress: Evidence for Beneficial Effects of SRT1720, a Sirtuin 1 Activator, and Sirtuin 1-Mediated Neuroprotective Effects of Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase Inhibition

Abstract

Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase and sirtuin 1 are both NAD+-dependent enzymes. In vitro oxidative stress activates poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase, decreases NAD+ level, sirtuin 1 activity and finally leads to cell death. Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase hyperactivation contributes to cell death. In addition, poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase inhibition restores NAD+ level and sirtuin 1 activity in vitro. In vitro sirtuin 1 induction protects neurons from cell loss induced by oxidative stress. In this context, the role of sirtuin 1 and its involvement in beneficial effects of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase inhibition were evaluated in vivo in a model of cerebral oxidative stress induced by intrastriatal infusion of malonate in rat. Malonate promoted a NAD+ decrease that was not prevented by 3-aminobenzamide, a poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase inhibitor, at 4 and 24 hours. However, 3-aminobenzamide increased nuclear SIRT1 activity/expression ratio after oxidative stress. Malonate induced a neurological deficit associated with a striatal lesion. Both were reduced by 3-aminobenzamide and SRT1720, a sirtuin 1 activator, showing beneficial effects of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase inhibition and sirtuin 1 activation on oxidative stress consequences. EX527, a sirtuin 1 inhibitor, given alone, modified neither the score nor the lesion, suggesting that endogenous sirtuin 1 was not activated during cerebral oxidative stress. However, its association with 3-aminobenzamide suppressed the neurological improvement and the lesion reduction induced by 3-aminobenzamide. The association of 3-aminobenzamide with SRT1720, the sirtuin 1 activator, did not lead to a better protection than 3-aminobenzamide alone. The present data represent the first demonstration that the sirtuin 1 activator SRT1720 is neuroprotective during in vivo cerebral oxidative stress. Furthermore sirtuin 1 activation is involved in the beneficial effects of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase inhibition after in vivo cerebral oxidative stress.

“…It is well established that intracellular NAD + level is modulated by cellular stresses including oxidative stress [ 27 , 28 ]. Oxidative stress is reported to depress NAMPT-mediated NAD + biosynthesis during metabolic syndrome and aging [ 29 , 30 ].…”

<i>SIRT1</i> gene polymorphisms associated with carcass traits in Luxi cattle

“…In the pancreatic β cells, SIRT1 positively regulates insulin secretion in response to glucose (Bordone et al, 2006). It is also involved in cellular differentiation, apoptosis, metabolism, and aging (Shakibaei et al, 2012;Sasaki et al, 2014;Luna et al, 2013;Gueguen et al, 2014).…”

Application of Targeted Mass Spectrometry for the Quantification of Sirtuins in the Central Nervous System

“…Sirtuins can affect reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and promote resistance to their damaging effects. Oxidative stress has been shown to decrease SIRT1 expression in the hippocampus and cortex, possibly by direct degradation by ROS 2 . SIRT1 overexpression prevents oxidative stress-induced apoptosis and increases resistance to oxidative stress through regulation of the FOXO family of forkhead transcription factors 3 .…”
