High-altitude exposure has been linked to cardiac dysfunction. Silent information regulator factor 2-related enzyme 1 (sirtuin 1, SIRT1), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent deacetylase, plays a crucial role in regulating numerous cardiovascular diseases. However, the relationship between SIRT1 and cardiac dysfunction induced by hypobaric hypoxia (HH) remains unexplored. This study aims to assess the impact of SIRT1 on HH-induced cardiac dysfunction and delve into the underlying mechanisms, both in vivo and in vitro. In this study, we have demonstrated that exposure to HH results in cardiomyocyte injury, along with the downregulation of SIRT1 and mitochondrial dysfunction. Upregulating SIRT1 significantly inhibits mitochondrial fission, improves mitochondrial function, reduces cardiomyocyte injury, and consequently enhances cardiac function in HH-exposed rats. Additionally, HH exposure triggers aberrant expression of mitochondrial fission-regulated proteins, with a decrease in PPARγ coactivator 1 alpha (PGC-1α) and mitochondrial fission factor (MFF) and an increase in mitochondrial fission 1 (FIS1) and dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), all of which are mitigated by SIRT1 upregulation. Furthermore, inhibiting PGC-1α diminishes the positive effects of SIRT1 regulation on the expression of DRP1, MFF, and FIS1, as well as mitochondrial fission. These findings demonstrate that SIRT1 alleviates HHinduced cardiac dysfunction by preventing mitochondrial fission through the PGC-1α-DRP1/FIS1/MFF pathway. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
