SIRT2 Contributes to the Regulation of Intestinal Cell Proliferation and DifferentiationSummary

Background and Aims: Intestinal mucosa undergoes a continual process of proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Disruption of this homeostasis is associated with disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We investigated the role of Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), a NAD-dependent protein deacetyl...

description Background and Aims: Intestinal mucosa undergoes a continual process of proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Disruption of this homeostasis is associated with disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We investigated the role of Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), a NAD-dependent protein deacetylase, in intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) proliferation and differentiation and the mechanism by which SIRT2 contributes to maintenance of intestinal cell homeostasis. Methods: IECs were collected from SIRT2-deficient mice and patients with IBD. Expression of SIRT2, differentiation markers (mucin2, intestinal alkaline phosphatase, villin, Na,K-ATPase, and lysozyme) and Wnt target genes (EPHB2, AXIN2, and cyclin D1) was determined by western blot, real-time RT-PCR, or immunohistochemical (IHC) staining. IECs were treated with TNF or transfected with siRNA targeting SIRT2. Proliferation was determined by villus height and crypt depth, and Ki67 and cyclin D1 IHC staining. For studies using organoids, intestinal crypts were isolated. Results: Increased SIRT2 expression was localized to the more differentiated region of the intestine. In contrast, SIRT2 deficiency impaired proliferation and differentiation and altered stemness in the small intestinal epithelium ex vivo and in vivo. SIRT2-deficient mice showed decreased intestinal enterocyte and goblet cell differentiation but increased the Paneth cell lineage and increased proliferation of IECs. Moreover, we found that SIRT2 inhibits Wnt/β-catenin signaling, which critically regulates IEC proliferation and differentiation. Consistent with a distinct role for SIRT2 in maintenance of gut homeostasis, intestinal mucosa from IBD patients exhibited decreased SIRT2 expression. Conclusion: We demonstrate that SIRT2, which is decreased in intestinal tissues from IBD patients, regulates Wnt-β-catenin signaling and is important for maintenance of IEC proliferation and differentiation.
