초록

SIRT1 signaling pathways modulate vascular inflammation; however, the precise role of SIRT1 in monocyte adhesion to the vascular endothelium, a key event initiating vascular inflammation, is unclear. Thus, this study investigated the roles and molecular interaction of SIRT1 and TLR2 in regulating monocyte adhesion to the vascular endothelium. In vitro, both Mac-1 expression and the endothelial adhesion of THP-1 cells stimulated with Pam3CSK4, a TLR2 ligand, were markedly increased in association with a decreased expression of SIRT1. In THP-1 cells stimulated with Pam3CSK4, the promoter activity and expression of SIRT1 were decreased. The TLR2-dependent suppression of SIRT1 expression in THP-1 cells was mediated by the transcription factors NF-κB and CREB, suggesting that the TLR2-mediated NF-κB and CREB signaling downregulated SIRT1 expression in monocytes. In peripheral blood monocytes (PBMCs) isolated from SIRT1 transgenic (TG) mice and THP-1 cells treated with recombinant SIRT1, both the increased Mac-1 expression and endothelial adhesion induced by Pam3CSK4 were significantly attenuated. In addition, the en face immunohistochemical study showed a marked increase in monocyte adhesion to the aortic endothelium of WT mice treated with Pam3CSK4, which was significantly attenuated in Pam3CSK4-treated SIRT1 TG mice. Moreover, a greater number of atherosclerotic plaques formed in WT mice fed a high-fat diet than in SIRT1 TG mice, indicating a pivotal role for SIRT1 in preventing vascular inflammation. Based on these results, SIRT1 might be a potential target for researchers aiming to develop therapeutic interventions for vascular inflammation, including atherosclerosis.
