    摘要:

    脊髓损伤(spinal cord injury,SCI)是一种高致残性中枢神经系统创伤,其病理进程复杂且多机制交织,涉及神经免疫炎症过度激活、氧化应激损伤、神经细胞凋亡、自噬紊乱及能量代谢失衡等关键环节,严重破坏脊髓神经功能完整性,显著降低患者生活质量。目前临床针对SCI的神经修复策略疗效有限,难以实现多病理环节的协同干预,因此探索新型核心治疗靶点与精准干预方案成为该领域的迫切需求。沉默信息调节因子(silence information regulator,Sirtuin,SIRT)家族(SIRT1~SIRT7)作为NAD+依赖的去乙酰化酶,在细胞代谢调控、免疫稳态维持、应激损伤修复等关键生物学过程中发挥核心作用,已被证实是神经系统疾病的潜在干预靶点。本文系统梳理了Sirtuins家族各成员的细胞定位与核心生物学功能,重点综述其在SCI病理进程中的调控作用及分子机制:SIRT1、3、5、6通过去乙酰化修饰抑制核因子κB(NF-κB)通路过度激活、阻断NLR家族pyrin结构域包含蛋白3(NLRP3)炎症小体组装,参与SCI后神经免疫炎症的调节,同时通过激活核因子E2相关因子2(Nrf2)抗氧化通路、提升超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、还原型烟酰胺腺嘌呤二核苷酸磷酸(NADPH)等抗氧化酶活性,减轻脊髓组织氧化应激损伤,形成“抗炎-抗氧化”协同保护;SIRT7通过促进DNA损伤修复、抑制凋亡信号通路,延缓神经细胞凋亡;SIRT3与SIRT5则靶向线粒体功能,通过调控三羧酸循环、氧化磷酸化相关酶的修饰状态,改善线粒体能量代谢,同时调节叉头盒O3a(FOXO3a)、AMP依赖的蛋白激酶(AMPK)的乙酰化水平,恢复自噬稳态,为神经修复提供代谢支撑。总结发现,多种天然中药成分(如白藜芦醇、苦参碱)及合成化合物(如SRT1720、AGK2)可通过靶向调控Sirtuins家族成员,影响SCI病理进展。因此,以Sirtuins为靶点的联合治疗策略(如联合干细胞移植、神经因子补充、抗氧化剂干预等)有望突破单一疗法的局限,通过多机制协同作用提升SCI的修复效果。综上,Sirtuins家族在SCI的病理生理进程中具有关键作用机制及潜在干预价值,本文总结并展望了靶向Sirtuins的新型治疗策略,以期为该领域的基础研究与临床转化提供新思路。

    Abstract:

    Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a highly disabling trauma of the central nervous system, characterized by a complex pathological process involving intertwined multiple mechanisms. Key pathological events include excessive activation of neuroinflammation, oxidative stress injury, neuronal apoptosis, autophagic dysfunction, and energy metabolism imbalance, which severely disrupt the integrity of spinal cord neural function and significantly reduce patients’ quality of life. Currently, clinical neurorepair strategies for SCI have limited efficacy and are difficult to achieve synergistic intervention targeting multiple pathological links. Therefore, exploring novel core therapeutic targets and precise intervention regimens has become an urgent need in this field. The Sirtuins family (SIRT1-SIRT7), as NAD+-dependent deacetylases, play a central role in critical biological processes such as cellular metabolism regulation, immune homeostasis maintenance, and stress injury repair, and have been identified as potential intervention targets for neurological diseases. This review systematically summarizes the cellular localization and core biological functions of each member of the Sirtuins family, with a focus on their regulatory roles and molecular mechanisms in the pathological process of SCI: SIRT1, 3, 5, and 6 inhibit the excessive activation of the NF-κB pathway and block NLRP3 inflammasome assembly through deacetylation modification, thereby participating in the regulation of neuroinflammation after SCI; meanwhile, they alleviate oxidative stress injury in spinal cord tissues by activating the Nrf2 antioxidant pathway and enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as SOD and NADPH, forming a “anti-inflammatory-antioxidant” synergistic protective effect. SIRT7 delays neuronal apoptosis by promoting DNA damage repair and inhibiting apoptotic signaling pathways. SIRT3 and SIRT5 target mitochondrial function, improve mitochondrial energy metabolism by regulating the modification status of enzymes involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation, and restore autophagic homeostasis by modulating the acetylation levels of FOXO3a and AMPK, providing metabolic support for neural repair. We summarize that a variety of natural Chinese herbal components (e.g., resveratrol, matrine) and synthetic compounds (e.g., SRT1720, AGK2) can influence the pathological progression of SCI by targeting and regulating members of the Sirtuins family. We propose that Sirtuins-targeted combined therapeutic strategies (e.g., combined with stem cell transplantation, neurotrophic factor supplementation, or antioxidant intervention) are expected to break through the limitations of single therapies and enhance the repair effect of SCI through multi-mechanism synergistic actions. In conclusion, the Sirtuins family exhibits critical mechanisms of action and potential intervention value in the pathophysiological process of SCI. This review summarizes and prospects novel Sirtuins-targeted therapeutic strategies, aiming to provide new insights for basic research and clinical translation in this field.
