文摘

Several recent studies have suggested seemingly contrasting roles of SIRT2 in inflammation: Our previous cell culture study has indicated that SIRT2 siRNA-produced decrease in SIRT2 levels can lead to significant inhibition of lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced activation of BV2 microglia, suggesting that SIRT2 is required for LPS-induced microglial activation. In contrast, some studies have suggested that SIRT2 deficiency can lead to increased inflammation. In our current study, we used a mouse model of neuroinflammation to determine the roles of SIRT2 in LPS-induced inflammation. We found that administration of SIRT2 inhibitor AGK2 can significantly decrease LPS-induced increases in CD11b signals and the mRNA of TNF-α and IL-6. We further found that AGK2 can block LPS-induced nuclear translocation of NFκB. In addition, our study has shown that AGK2 can decrease not only LPS-induced increase in TUNEL signals—a marker of apoptosis-like damage, but also LPS-induced increases in the levels of active Caspase-3 and Bax. Collectively, our current in vivo study, together with our previous cell culture study, has suggested that SIRT2 is required for LPS-induced neuroinflammation and brain injury.KeywordsSIRT2NeuroinflammationBrainCytokinesApoptosis
