The protective effect of fenofibrate against TNF-α-induced CD40 expression through SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of NF-κB in endothelial cells.
    Inflammation, 2014, Volume: 37, Issue:1

    Fenofibrate, as a lipid-lowering drug in clinic, participates in the regulation of inflammatory response. Recently, increasing studies have indicated that sirtuin1 (SIRT1), a NAD+-dependent deacetylase, has potential anti-inflammatory effect in endothelial cells. However, whether the regulatory effect of fenofibrate on inflammation response is mediated by SIRT1 remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of fenofibrate on the expressions of SIRT1 and pro-inflammatory cytokine CD40 in endothelial cells and explore the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that fenofibrate upregulated SIRT1 expression and inhibited CD40 expression in TNF-α-stimulated endothelial cells, but these effects were reversed by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα) antagonist GW6471. Furthermore, SIRT1 inhibitors sirtinol/nicotinamide (NAM) or SIRT1 knockdown could attenuate the effect of fenofibrate on CD40 expression in endothelial cells. Importantly, NF-κB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) augmented the effect of fenofibrate on CD40 expression. Further study found that fenofibrate decreased the expression of acetylated-NF-κB p65 (Ac-NF-κB p65) in TNF-α-stimulated endothelial cells, which was abolished by SIRT1 knockdown. These results indicate that fenofibrate has protective effect against TNF-α-induced CD40 expression through SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of the p65 subunit of NF-κB.

PPARα agonist fenofibrate attenuates TNF-α-induced CD40 expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes via the SIRT1-dependent signaling pathway.
    Experimental cell research, 2013, Jun-10, Volume: 319, Issue:10

    The ligand-activated transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα) participates in the regulation of cellular inflammation. More recent studies indicated that sirtuin1 (SIRT1), a NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase, regulates the inflammatory response in adipocytes. However, whether the role of PPARα in inflammation is mediated by SIRT1 remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of PPARα agonist fenofibrate on the expressions of SIRT1 and pro-inflammatory cytokine CD40 and underlying mechanisms in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. We found that fenofibrate inhibited CD40 expression and up-regulated SIRT1 expression in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-stimulated adipocytes, and these effects of fenofibrate were reversed by PPARα antagonist GW6471. Moreover, SIRT1 inhibitors sirtinol/nicotinamide (NAM) or knockdown of SIRT1 could attenuate the effect of fenofibrate on TNF-α-induced CD40 expression in adipocytes. Importantly, NF-κB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) augmented the effect of fenofibrate on CD40 expression in adipocytes. Further study found that fenofibrate decreased the expression of acetylated-NF-κB p65 (Ac-NF-κB p65) in TNF-α-stimulated adipocytes, and the effect of fenofibrate was abolished by SIRT1 inhibition. In addition, fenofibrate up-regulated SIRT1 expression through AMPK in TNF-α-stimulated adipocytes. Taken together, these findings indicate that PPARα agonist fenofibrate inhibits TNF-α-induced CD40 expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes via the SIRT1-dependent signaling pathway.
