Sirtuin 3 ameliorates inflammatory bowel disease via inhibiting intestinal inflammation and oxidative stress

抄録

Sirtuin 3 involved in development of various diseases, but its role ‍in inflammatory bowel disease is still unknown. We used inflammatory bowel disease biopsies, colitis animal model, and vitro cells RAW264.7 to study the role of Sirtuin 3 in the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease. Sirtuin 3 negatively correlated with intestinal TNF-α. Sirt3 was less pronounced in pediatric and adult inflammatory bowel disease patients compared with corresponding control group. Sirtuin 3 activator Honokiol suppressed dextran sulfate sodium induced colonic manifestations, while Sirt3 inhibitor caused opposite results. Honokiol inhibited colonic oxidative stress by and reduced ‍intestinal permeability. Honokiol repressed inflammatory response by reducing macrophage infiltration, pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels, and inhibiting activation of NF-κB p65 in the colitis mice. However, Sirt3 inhibitor amplified colonic oxidative stress and inflammatory response. In vitro study, ‍Sirt3 inhibitor or siRNA Sirtuin 3 activated NF-κB p65 and enhanced TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 secretion from LPS stimulated RAW264.7, while Honokiol remarkably attenuated these pro-inflammatory cytokines secretion. Finally, knockdown of Sirt3 in Caco-2 cells enhanced TNF-α induced intestinal barrier integrity injury. Sirtuin 3 negatively regulates inflammatory bowel disease progression via reducing colonic inflammation and oxidative stress. Sirtuin 3 is a promising therapeutic target in clinical application for inflammatory bowel disease therapy.
