Abstract
Background & Aims
Dysfunction of the intestinal epithelial barrier comprising the junctional complex of tight junctions and adherent junctions leads to increased intestinal permeability, which is a major cause of uncontrolled inflammation related to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The NAD+-dependent deacetylase SIRT1 is implicated in inflammation and the pathologic process of IBD. We aimed to elucidate the protective role and underlying mechanism of SIRT1 in cell-cell junction and intestinal epithelial integrity.
Methods
The correlation of SIRT1 expression and human IBD was analyzed by GEO or immunohistochemical analyses. BK5.mSIRT1 transgenic mice and wild-type mice were given dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) and the manifestation of colitis-related phenotypes was analyzed. Intestinal permeability was measured by FITC-dextran and cytokines expression was analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The expression of the cell junction–related proteins in DSS-treated or SIRT1-knockdown Caco2 or HCT116 cells was analyzed by Western blotting. The effects of nicotinamide mononucleotide in DSS-induced mice colitis were investigated. Correlations of the SIRT1-β-TrCP1-Snail1-Occludin/Claudin-1/E-cadherin pathway with human IBD samples were analyzed.
Results
Reduced SIRT1 expression is associated with human IBD specimens. SIRT1 transgenic mice exhibit much-reduced manifestations of DSS-induced colitis. The activation of SIRT1 by nicotinamide mononucleotide bolsters intestinal epithelial barrier function and ameliorates DSS-induced colitis in mice. Mechanistically, DSS downregulates SiRT1 expression, leading to destabilization of β-TrCP1 and upregulation of Snail1, accompanied by reduced expression of E-cadherin, Occludin, and Claudin-1, consequently resulting in increased epithelial permeability and inflammation. The deregulated SIRT1-β-TrCP1-Snail1-Occludin/Claudin-1/E-cadherin pathway correlates with human IBD.
Conclusions
SIRT1 is pivotal in maintaining the intestinal epithelial barrier integrity via modulation of the β-TrCP1-Snail1-E-cadhein/Occludin/Claudin-1 pathway.
期刊介绍:
"Cell and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology (CMGH)" is a journal dedicated to advancing the understanding of digestive biology through impactful research that spans the spectrum of normal gastrointestinal, hepatic, and pancreatic functions, as well as their pathologies. The journal's mission is to publish high-quality, hypothesis-driven studies that offer mechanistic novelty and are methodologically robust, covering a wide range of themes in gastroenterology, hepatology, and pancreatology.
CMGH reports on the latest scientific advances in cell biology, immunology, physiology, microbiology, genetics, and neurobiology related to gastrointestinal, hepatobiliary, and pancreatic health and disease. The research published in CMGH is designed to address significant questions in the field, utilizing a variety of experimental approaches, including in vitro models, patient-derived tissues or cells, and animal models. This multifaceted approach enables the journal to contribute to both fundamental discoveries and their translation into clinical applications, ultimately aiming to improve patient care and treatment outcomes in digestive health.
