Epigallocatechin Gallate Effectively Affects Senescence and Anti-SASP via SIRT3 in 3T3-L1 Preadipocytes in Comparison with Other Bioactive Substances

Abstract

Aim. We investigated different bioactive compounds including epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), anthocyanidin, resveratrol, phloretin, spermidine, butyrate, and β-hydroxybutyrate with regard to their effect on SIRT3 via NRF2 and modulation of the proinflammatory senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) in senescence induced 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Methods. For induction of senescence, 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were incubated with bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) for 8 days. Cell cycle inhibition was observed, and β-galactosidase activity was measured. After BrdU treatment, cells were treated with different bioactive compounds in various concentrations for 96 h. ELISA was used for determining proinflammatory cytokine IL6 in SASP cells. Results. CDKN1a increased significantly after BrdU incubation compared to untreated control ( p < 0.01 ). All secondary plant ingredients used for treatment, but not anthocyanidin 50 μM, decrease CDKN1a expression ( p < 0.05 ), whereas most endogenous substances did not attenuate CDKN1a. IL6 secretion positively correlated with CDKN1a ( p < 0.01 ), whereas EGCG could diminish both, IL6 and CDKN1a with the strongest effect ( p < 0.01 ). Although NRF2 positively correlated with SIRT3 activation ( p < 0.05 ), only resveratrol ( p < 0.01 ) and anthocyanidin ( p < 0.05 ) could activate NRF2 significantly. Solely anthocyanidin 50 μM ( p < 0.05 ) and 100 μM ( p < 0.01 ) and EGCG 50 μM ( p < 0.01 ) could increase SIRT3 expression. Activation of SIRT3 with EGCG correlated with lowered IL6 secretion significantly ( p < 0.05 ) but not with anthocyanidin. Conclusion. Accumulation of senescent cells in adipose tissue plays an important role in obesity and age-related diseases. SIRT3, located in the mitochondria, can regulate ROS via different pathways. Thus, targeting SIRT3 activating compounds such as EGCG may delay senescence of cells and senescence induced inflammatory processes.

Five Days Periodic Fasting Elevates Levels of Longevity Related Christensenella and Sirtuin Expression in Humans

“…SIRT1 is the most intensively studied member of the SIRT family and it is associated with longevity in animal models. AMPK and SIRT1 both regulate each other’s activities and share many common targets and functions [ 13 , 14 ]. Both AMPK and SIRT promote mitochondrial biogenesis and functioning.…”

“…Both AMPK and SIRT promote mitochondrial biogenesis and functioning. Consequently, they increase cells ability to generate ATP, diminish oxidative stress, and other potentially adverse cellular events [ 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ].…”

Dissecting the Interplay Mechanism between Epigenetics and Gut Microbiota: Health Maintenance and Disease Prevention

“…SCFAs, especially butyrate, can regulate the sirtuin deacetylase SIRT1, which plays an important role in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis, metabolism, stress responses, genome stability, and aging [112,141]. Resveratrol has been shown, by enhancing the SIRT1 activity, to ameliorate metabolic syndrome [113] (Table 3).…”
