Targeting SIRT1 by Scopoletin to Inhibit XBB.1.5 COVID-19 Life Cycle.
Curr Rev Clin Exp Pharmacol 2024 March 2
Natural products have historically driven pharmaceutical discovery, but their reliance has diminished with synthetic drugs. Approximately 35% of medicines originate from natural products. Scopoletin, a natural coumarin compound found in herbs, exhibits antioxidant, hepatoprotective, antiviral, and antimicrobial properties through diverse intracellular signaling mechanisms. Furthermore, it also enhances the activity of antioxidants. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causes viral pneumonia through cytokine storms and systemic inflammation. Cellular autophagy pathways play a role in coronavirus replication and inflammation. The Silent Information Regulator 1 (SIRT1) pathway, linked to autophagy, protects cells via FOXO3, inhibits apoptosis, and modulates SIRT1 in type-II epithelial cells. SIRT1 activation by adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) enhances the autophagy cascade. This pathway holds therapeutic potential for alveolar and pulmonary diseases and is crucial in lung inflammation. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) activation, inhibited by reduced expression, prevents COVID-19 virus entry into type-II epithelial cells. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus binds ACE-2 to enter into the host cells, and XBB.1.5 COVID-19 displays high ACE-2-binding affinity. ACE-2 expression in pneumocytes is regulated by signal transducers and activators of transcription-3 (STAT3), which can increase COVID-19 virus replication. SIRT1 regulates STAT3, and the SIRT1/STAT3 pathway is involved in lung diseases. Therapeutic regulation of SIRT1 protects the lungs from inflammation caused by viral-mediated oxidative stress. Scopoletin, as a modulator of the SIRT1 cascade, can regulate autophagy and inhibit the entry and life cycle of XBB.1.5 COVID-19 in host cells.
