Overexpression of a dominant-negative mutant of SIRT1 in mouse heart causes cardiomyocyte apoptosis and early-onset heart failure

Abstract: SIRT1, a mammalian ortholog of yeast silent information regulator 2 (Sir2), is an NAD + -dependent protein deacetylase that plays a critical role in the regulation of vascular function. The current study aims to investigate the functional significance of deacetylase activity of SIRT1 in heart. Here we show that the early postnatal hearts expressed the highest level of SIRT1 deacetylase activity compared to adult and aged hearts. We generated transgenic mice with cardiac-specific expression of a dominant-negati… Show more

“…SIRT1 is expressed at high levels in prenatal hearts and is essential for cardiac development and prenatal survival2829. In cardiomyocytes, SIRT1 overexpression inhibited the expression of Nkx2.5 target genes, in part through repressing the interaction between Nkx2.5 and its transcriptional co-factors.…”
