Recombinant Humanized IgG1 Antibody Protects against oxLDL-Induced Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Human Monocyte/Macrophage THP-1 Cells by Upregulation of MSRA via Sirt1-FOXO1 Axis.

ABSTRACT: Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL)-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis are considered as critical contributors to cardiovascular diseases. Methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MSRA) is a potent intracellular oxidoreductase and serves as an essential factor that protects cells against oxidative damage. Here, we firstly provide evidence that recombinant humanized IgG1 antibody treatment upregulated the expression of MSRA in THP-1 cells to defend against oxLDL-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis. It was also observed that the upregulation of MSRA is regulated by the forkhead box O transcription factor (FOXO1), and the acetylation of FOXO1 increased when exposed to oxLDL but declined when treated with recombinant humanized IgG1 antibody. In addition, we identified that silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) suppresses FOXO1 acetylation. Importantly, SIRT1 or FOXO1 deficiency impaired the anti-oxidative stress and anti-apoptotic effect of recombinant humanized IgG1 antibody. Together, our results suggest that recombinant humanized IgG1 antibody exerts its anti-oxidative stress and anti-apoptotic function by upregulation of MSRA via the Sirt1-FOXO1 axis.
