摘要
Sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction is a common complication that has been linked to an increased mortality. The activation of NFkB pathway and excessive production of pro-inflammatory cytokines is considered to be one of the most important signaling pathway involved in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Earlier studies have shown that Sirt6, a member of class III of histone deacetylases, attenuates hyper-activation of NFkB signaling that contributes to inflammation and the aging process. In the present study we tested the hypothesis whether pharmacological activation of Sirt6 can prevent LPS induced myocardial inflammation. Primary cultures of adult rat cardiac fibroblasts were treated with UBCS039, an allosteric activator of Sirt6, for 48 hours. The results showed a dose-dependent increase in steady-state levels of Sirt6 as well as deacetylation of its target H3K9 by Western analysis. A similar effect of UBCS039 treatment was observed in H9C2 cardiac myocytes. We also tested effects of UBCS039 on LPS induced NFkB activation and cytokine production in these cells. Our data showed that pretreatment of cardiac fibroblasts with UBCS039 for 48 hrs significantly reduced LPS (100ng/ml)-induced phosphorylated levels of NFkB (pNFkB). By real-time PCR analysis we found that LPS led to increased expression (4-9 fold) of mRNA of IL-6, IL-1b, TLR4 and CD-38 in cardiac fibroblasts within 6h of treatment. This effect of LPS in cardiac fibroblasts was completely blocked when cells were pretreated with UBCS039. These data thus indicated that pharmacological activation of Sirt6 is capable of blocking LPS induced inflammatory response in cardiac cells, and has the potential to alleviate sepsis induced myocardial dysfunction and related health consequences.
