histone deacetylase inflammation

Diabetic vascular complications include diabetic macroangiopathy and diabetic microangiopathy. Diabetic microangiopathy is characterised by impaired microvascular endothelial function, basement membrane thickening, and microthrombosis, which may promote renal, ocular, cardiac, and peripheral system damage in diabetic patients. Therefore, new preventive and therapeutic strategies are urgently required. Sirt1, a member of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent histone deacetylase class III family, regulates different organ growth and development, oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, metabolism, inflammation, and aging...

Legionella pneumophila ( L. pneumophila ) is a prevalent pathogenic bacterium responsible for significant global health concerns. Nonetheless, the precise pathogenic mechanisms of L. pneumophila have still remained elusive. Autophagy, a direct cellular response to L. pneumophila infection and other pathogens, involves the recognition and degradation of these invaders in lysosomes. Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6), a distinctive member of the histone deacetylase family, plays a multifaceted role in autophagy regulation...

BACKGROUND: Acute lung injury (ALI) is a leading cause of mortality in patients with sepsis due to proinflammatory endothelial changes and endothelial permeability defects. Mitochondrial dysfunction is recognized as a critical mediator in the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced ALI. Although mitophagy regulation of mitochondrial quality is well recognized, little is known about its role in lung ECs during sepsis-induced ALI. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a histone protein deacetylase involved in inflammation, mitophagy, and cellular senescence...

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a key therapeutic target in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), which has been demonstrated to play an essential role in memory function and microtubule-associated tau physiology. In this study, W5 was used to treat AD model rats induced by Aβ/Cu2+ to study the improving effect of W5 on learning and memory impairment in AD rats and its related mechanism, to provide the basis for the subsequent development of W5 as an anti-AD drug. Results showed that W5 could decrease the expression of Aβ, Tau, and p-Tau proteins in the hippocampus of AD rats to inhibit the formation of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, down-regulate the expression of Bax mRNA and Caspase-3 mRNA, and up-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 mRNA to reduce the apoptosis of neuron cells, reverse the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA to regulate neuroinflammatory response in AD rat brain...

Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) produced by bacterial fermentation of fiber in the colon, is a source of energy for colonocytes. Butyrate is essential for improving gastrointestinal (GI) health since it helps colonocyte function, reduces inflammation, preserves the gut barrier, and fosters a balanced microbiome. Human colonic butyrate producers are Gram-positive firmicutes, which are phylogenetically varied. The two most prevalent subgroups are associated with Eubacterium rectale/Roseburia spp. and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii...

The robust integrity of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which contributes to the outer brain retina barrier (oBRB), is compromised in several retinal degenerative and vascular disorders, including diabetic macular edema (DME). This study evaluates the role of a new generation of histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi), ITF2357, in regulating outer blood-retinal barrier function and investigates the underlying mechanism of action in inhibiting TNFα-induced damage to RPE integrity. Using the immortalized RPE cell line (ARPE-19), ITF2357 was found to be non-toxic between 50 nM and 5 μM concentrations...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Atherosclerosis is a chronic lipid-driven inflammatory disease largely influenced by hemodynamics. Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET)-mediated inflammation plays an important role in atherosclerosis. However, little is known about the relationship between low shear stress (LSS) and NET generation, as well as the underlying mechanism. METHODS: We induced LSS by partial ligation of the left carotid artery in high-fat diet-fed male ApoE-/- mice...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and irreversible condition characterized by the deposition of extracellular matrix resulting from repetitive damage to the alveolar epithelium. These injuries, along with dysregulated wound repair and fibroblast dysfunction, lead to continuous tissue remodeling and fibrosis, eventually resulting in end-stage pulmonary fibrosis. Currently, there is no specific pharmacological treatment available for IPF. The role of inflammation in the development of IPF is still a topic of debate, and it is sometimes considered incidental to fibrosis...

Acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is a prevalent type of poisoning that causes significant harm globally. Delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (DEACMP) is a severe complication that occurs after acute CO poisoning; however, the exact underlying pathological cause of DEACMP remains unclear. Accumulating evidence indicates that abnormal inflammation and immune-mediated brain damage, cellular apoptosis and autophagy, and direct neuronal toxicity are involved in the development of delayed neurologic sequelae...

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) poses therapeutic challenges due to the limited treatment options. Building upon our previous research that demonstrates the efficacy of histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibition in a genetic cardiomyopathy model, we investigate HDAC6's role in HFpEF due to their shared mechanisms of inflammation and metabolism. Here, we show that inhibiting HDAC6 with TYA-018 effectively reverses established heart failure and its associated symptoms in male HFpEF mouse models...

Hypertension is the most prevalent modifiable risk factor for stroke and is associated with worse functional outcomes. Pharmacological inhibition of histone deacetylases by suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) modulates gene expression and has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach to reduce ischaemic brain injury. Here, we have tested the therapeutic potential of SAHA administered during reperfusion in adult male spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) rats subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO; 90 min occlusion/24 h reperfusion)...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is characterized by prolonged hyperglycemia, impaired vascularization, and serious complications, such as blindness and chronic diabetic wounds. About 25% of patients with DM are estimated to encounter impaired healing of diabetic wounds, often leading to lower limb amputation. Multiple factors are attributed to the non-healing of diabetic wounds, including hyperglycaemia, chronic inflammation, and impaired angiogenesis. It is imperative to develop more efficient treatment strategies to tackle healing difficulties in diabetic wounds...

Bacterial infections represent a key public health issue due to the occurrence of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Recently, the amount of data supporting the dynamic control of epigenetic pathways by environmental cues has triggered research efforts toward the clarification of their role in microbial infections. Among protein post-translational modifications, reversible acetylation is the most implicated in the feedback to environmental stimuli and in cellular homeostasis. Accordingly, the latest studies identified the histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) enzyme as a crucial player in the complex molecular machinery underlying bacterial clearance or killing...

Rheumatic disease is a disease which is not yet fully clarified to etiology and also involved in a local pathological injury or systemic disease. With the continuous improvement of clinical medical research in recent years, the development process of rheumatic diseases has been gradually elucidated; with the intensely study of epigenetics, it is realized that environmental changes can affect genetics, among which histone acetylation is one of the essential mechanisms in epigenetics. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) play an important role in regulating gene expression in various biological processes, including differentiation, development, stress response, and injury...

Histone deacetylase 11 (HDAC11) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation, such as obesity. However, the influence of HDAC11 on inflammation and the specific effect of HDAC11 on the palmitic acid (PA)-induced NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation are poorly understood. The effect of PA treatment on HDAC11 activity and the NLRP3 inflammasome was investigated in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and THP-1 cells...

Sirtuins, which are NAD+ -dependent class III histone deacetylases, are involved in various biological processes, including DNA damage repair, immune inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial homeostasis, autophagy, and apoptosis. Sirtuins are essential regulators of cellular function and organismal health. Increasing evidence suggests that the development of age-related diseases, including kidney diseases, is associated with aberrant expression of sirtuins, and that regulation of sirtuins expression and activity can effectively improve kidney function and delay the progression of kidney disease...

Liver transplantation (LT) is the only effective method to treat end-stage liver disease. Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) continues to limit the prognosis of patients receiving LT. Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a unique HDAC member involved in inflammation and apoptosis. However, its role and mechanism in hepatic IRI have not yet been reported. We examined HDAC6 levels in liver tissue from LT patients, mice challenged with liver IRI, and hepatocytes subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R). In addition, HDAC6 global-knockout (HDAC6-KO) mice, adeno-associated virus-mediated liver-specific HDAC6 overexpressing (HDAC6-LTG) mice, and their corresponding controls were used to construct hepatic IRI models...

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint blockade in monotherapy or combinatorial regimens with chemotherapy or radiotherapy have become an integral part of oncology in recent years. Monoclonal antibodies against CTLA-4 or PD-1 or PDL-1 are the most studied ICIs in randomized clinical trials, however, more recently, an anti-LAG3 (Lymphocyte activation gene-3) antibody, Relatlimab, has been approved by FDA in combination with Nivolumab for metastatic melanoma therapy. Moreover, Atezolizumab is actually under study in association with Ipilimumab for therapy of metastatic lung cancer...

Colorectal disturbances encompass a variety of disorders that impact the colon and rectum, such as colitis and colon cancer. Butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, plays a pivotal role in supporting gut health by nourishing colonocytes, promoting barrier function, modulating inflammation, and fostering a balanced microbiome. Increasing colorectal butyrate concentration may serve as a critical strategy to improve colon function and reduce the risk of colorectal disturbances. Butyrylated high-amylose maize starch (HAMSB) is an edible ingredient that efficiently delivers butyrate to the colon...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by renal inflammation and fibrosis. However, the precise mechanisms leading to renal inflammation and fibrosis are poorly understood. In this study, we examined the role of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) in the regulation of inflammation and renal fibrosis. HDAC3 is induced in the kidneys of animal models of CKD. Mice with conditional HDAC3 deletion exhibited significantly reduced fibrosis in the kidneys compared with control mice. The expression of pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic genes was significantly increased in the fibrotic kidneys of control mice, which were impaired in mice with HDAC3 deletion...
