Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a disease caused by organic and functional coronary artery stenosis, resulting in a reduced oxygen supply to the heart. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism via which Luteolin regulates the Sirt1/Nrf2 pathway to inhibit ferroptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) associated with CHD. An ox-LDL-induced HUVEC cell model with Sirt1 silencing and Luteolin treatment was established. The silencing efficiency of Sirt1 was validated using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. The results of molecular docking and DARTS experiments showed that Luteolin could effectively bind Sirt1. Subsequently, we measured the expression of Nrf2 and Sirt1, cell viability, MDA, GSH, Fe2+ levels, lipid ROS content, expression of ferroptosis-related proteins GPX4, FTH, FTL, and cell migration parameters. The results showed that Luteolin could activate the Sirt1/Nrf2 axis and effectively inhibit ox-LDL-induced ferroptosis in HUVEC. Experimental results revealed that Luteolin could enhance HUVEC cell viability, decrease MDA, Fe2+, and ROS levels, increase GSH levels, promote the expression of HO-1, GPX4, FTH, FTL, inhibit the expression of ACSL4 and TFRC, and enhance the migration capability of HUVEC cells. Moreover, silencing Sirt1 reversed the effects of Luteolin on the activation of Sirt1 and Nrf2, confirming the dependence of these effects on the Sirt1/Nrf2 signaling pathway. In conclusion, this study indicates that Luteolin could inhibit ferroptosis in HUVEC in CHD by modulating the Sirt1/Nrf2 axis, providing a basis for further research on strategies for preventing and treating CHD and related diseases.
