Anmei Dan Regulates SIRT3/Nrf2 Signaling Pathway-mediated Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress to Improve Cognitive Function in Aged Sleep-deprived Mouse Model
摘要
Abstract
Objective:To investigate the mechanism by which Anmei Dan(AMD)regulates recombinant sirtuin 3/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(SIRT3/Nrf2)signaling to ameliorate mitochondrial oxidative stress and improve the cognitive function in aged sleep-deprived mice.Methods:Sixty aged C57 mice were randomly assigned to a control group,a model group,a melatonin(1.3 mg·kg-1·d-1)group,and high-,medium-,and low-dose(26.26,13.13,6.565 g·kg-1·d-1,respectively)AMD groups,with ten mice per group.Continuous sleep deprivation was administered for 4 weeks via a custom-built sleep deprivation chamber.The cognitive function of mice was assessed via the Morris water maze test.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was performed to observe morphological alterations in pyramidal neurons.Biochemical assays were carried out to measure the hippocampal and serum levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px),catalase(CAT),and total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC).Transmission electron microscopy was adopted to examine mitochondrial pathological alterations in the hippocampus.Immunohistochemical assay was conducted to examine the expression of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2),sirtuin 3(SIRT3),peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α(PGC-1α),mitochondrial transcription factor A(TFAM),and brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)in the mouse hippocampus.The protein levels of Nrf2,SIRT3,heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1(NQO1)in mouse hippocampal tissue were determined by Western blot.Immunofluorescence double labeling was employed to determine the protein levels of SIRT3/Nrf2 in mouse hippocampal tissue.Results:Compared with the control group,the model group exhibited prolonged latency to navigate,increased total swimming distance,reduced number of platform crossings,and shortened time spent in the target quadrant(P<0.05,P<0.01),disorganized morphology and arrangement of hippocampal neurons,with increased damaged mitochondria,mitochondrial swelling,reduced cristae,and vacuolization,declined levels of SOD,GSH-Px,CAT,and T-AOC and elevated levels of MDA in the hippocampus and serum(P<0.01),and downregulated protein levels of SIRT3,Nrf2,PGC-1α,TFAM,BDNF,HO-1,and NQO1(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the melatonin group and AMD groups exhibited shortened spatial navigation latency,reduced total swimming distance,increased number of platform crossings,and prolonged activity time in the target quadrant(P<0.05,P<0.01),reduced neuronal damage and mitochondrial damage in the hippocampal tissue,declined level of MDA and elevated levels of SOD,GSH-Px,CAT,and T-AOC in the hippocampus and serum(P<0.05,P<0.01),and upregulated protein levels of SIRT3,Nrf2,PGC-1α,TFAM,BDNF,HO-1,and NQO1 in the hippocampus(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion:AMD may improve the learning and memory in aged sleep-deprived mice by mediating mitochondrial oxidative damage through the SIRT3/Nrf2 signaling pathway.关键词
