description Abstract Background Epigenetic changes are among the molecular substrates of cellular stress responses and tissue remodeling in heart failure progression. The sirtuin family of NAD+-dependent histone and non-histone protein deacetylases exert a protective anti-fibrotic role by negatively modulating the inflammatory response and by positive regulation of autophagy-related genes. Sirtuin6 (SIRT6) stands out as a key cardiac protector that can mitigate aging-induced cardiomyocyte senescence and cardiac hypertrophy. Cardiac stromal cells (CSCs) play a pivotal role in fibrosis and remodeling, regulating the composition and stiffness of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Autophagy enhancement has anti-fibrotic effects in CSCs, but the specific role of SIRT6 modulation in CSCs remains unexplored. Purpose To investigate the biological effects of MDL-800, a synthetic allosteric SIRT6 activator, on the stress response and fibrotic activation of CSCs. Methods CSCs were isolated from 4-week-old C57Bl6J mice by explant culture and stimulated with 10ng/ml of TGF-beta1 (TGFb1) up to 72h to induce fibrotic activation. CSCs were treated with MDL-800 up to 10µM and up to 72h, analyzed for cell viability, gene and protein expression levels. Results TGFb1 treatment led to a 0.64-fold reduction in SIRT6 gene expression after 24h. The MTS assay was used to assess a viability dose-response to MDL-800 up to 72h of treatment. The non-toxic concentrations of 2.5µM and 5µM were selected for further experiments (2.5µM vs CTR 0.97-fold and 5µM vs CTR 0.92-fold, normalized OD vs t0). Co-treatment of 5µM MDL-800 with TGFb1 for 72h resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in the expression of TGFb1-induced fibroblast activation markers, as confirmed by immunofluorescence staining for aSMA (TGFb1 vs CTR 2.21-fold, p

The anti-fibrotic effect mediated by MDL-800 was further validated by real-time PCR indicating a reduction in the mRNA expression of multiple fibrotic markers, including ACTA2 (TGFb1 vs CTR 1.67-fold, 5µM vs TGFB 0.29-fold; N=2), COL1a1 (TGFb1 vs CTR 1.32-fold, 5µM vs TGFb1 0.87-fold; N=2) COL3a1 (TGFb1 vs CTR 1.06-fold, 5µM vs TGFb1 0.43-fold; N=2) and POSTN (TGFb1 vs CTR 6.37-fold, 5µM vs TGFb1 0.23-fold; N=2). Treatment with 5µM MDL-800 demonstrated an increase in SIRT6 gene expression, suggesting a transcriptional modulation (TGFb1 vs CTR 0.95-fold, 5µM vs TGFb1 1.68-fold; N=2). Western Blot analyses showed an increase in protein levels of the autophagosome marker LC3-II following treatment with 5µM MDL-800 (TGFb1 vs CTR 0.95-fold; 5µM vs TGFb1 3.01-fold), suggesting that autophagy enhancement may be a potential mechanism for the observed anti-fibrotic effects. Conclusion MDL-800 treatment in CSCs is associated with a dose-dependent reduction of TGFb1-induced fibrotic markers and to increased levels of the autophagy marker, suggesting its potential use as an anti-fibrotic molecule for the heart.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0195-668X</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1522-9645</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehae666.3658</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>US: Oxford University Press</publisher><ispartof>European heart journal, 2024-10, Vol.45 (Supplement_1)</ispartof><rights>The Author(s) 2024.
