Mechanism of desuccinylation of G6PD mediated by SIRT7 to promote vitiligo disease progression.

ABSTRACT: Sirtuin 7 (SIRT7) is pivotal in diverse diseases progression. Importantly, SIRT7 is associated with melanin production. However, whether SIRT7 regulates vitiligo is unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of SIRT7 on pigmentation and the modification of glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). After knockdown SIRT7 and G6PD, pigmentation of melanocytes was evaluated using commercial kits, immunofluorescence, and Western blot analysis. The succinylation of G6PD mediated by SIRT7 was analyzed using co-immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence, Western blot analysis, and cycloheximide-chase experiment. We found that SIRT7 was highly expressed in vitiligo skin lesions. Knockdown of SIRT7 increased tyrosinase activity, melanin content, and the levels of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, MITF, TYR, TRP1, and TRP2. Additionally, SIRT7 directly interacted with G6PD. Silenced SIRT7 promoted the succinylation of G6PD and enhanced its protein stability. G6PD knockdown reversed the effect of reduced SIRT7 expression on melanin production. Silencing of SIRT7 promotes pigmentation of melanocytes by succinylating G6PD, suggesting that SIRT7-mediated G6PD desuccinylation may promote vitiligo progression.

Project description:The management of hyperglycemia and lipid metabolism is pivotal for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Metformin hydrochloride (DMBG) remains the most widely prescribed medication for this condition. This study aimed to elucidate the effects and underlying mechanisms by which DMBG enhances glucolipid metabolism using both in vivo and in vitro experimental models. Animal models were established using high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice, while cellular models utilized palmitic acid (PA)-induced HepG2 cells. In vivo, the impact of DMBG on glucolipid metabolism was evaluated through measurements of insulin and HbA1c levels, intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests (ipGTT), intraperitoneal insulin tolerance tests (ipITT), as well as histological assessments with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Oil-red O staining. Mitochondrial function was assessed via biochemical assays of TBARS, SOD, ATP, and H2O2 levels in liver tissue, alongside determinations of mitochondrial membrane potential, ROS production, mtDNA content, and SIRT5 mRNA expression. For in vitro analysis, glucose consumption, mitochondrial membrane potential, ROS levels, and protein expressions of AMPK and PGC-1α were quantified in HepG2 cells. Western blotting and co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) techniques were employed to investigate the mechanistic pathways involved. Treatment with DMBG resulted in reduced levels of free fatty acids, body weight, and fat mass, while also alleviating hyperglycemia and hepatic lipid accumulation in HFD-fed mice. Furthermore, DMBG restored impaired mitochondrial function in these animals and increased SIRT5 expression via AMPK activation. In vitro, DMBG mitigated PA-induced alterations in glucose consumption and mitochondrial dysfunction in HepG2 cells, an effect that was abrogated upon SIRT5 knockdown. Overexpression of SIRT5 led to enhanced trifunctional enzyme subunit-alpha (ECHA) desuccinylation at the K540 site, thereby increasing its activity. Collectively, our findings indicate that DMBG improves hepatic glucolipid metabolism through a mechanism involving SIRT5-mediated ECHA desuccinylation, potentially offering a new therapeutic avenue for T2DM.
