HDAC1 disrupts the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle through the deacetylation of Nur77 and promotes inflammation in ischemia-reperfusion mice
Abstract
Abstract Histone deacetylase enzymes (HDACs) regulate protein acetylation. HDAC1 is known to enhance ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, but its underlying mechanism(s) of action have not been defined. Here, in vivo mouse models of myocardial I/R were used to investigate the role of HDAC1 during I/R myocardial injury. We show that HDAC1 enhances the inflammatory responses of I/R mice. Using a constructed macrophage H/R (hypoxia/ regeneration) injury model (Raw264.7 cells), we identified Nur77 as a HDAC1 target in macrophages. Nur77 deficient macrophages failed to downregulate IDH1 (isocitrate dehydrogenase 1) and accumulated succinic acid and other tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle-derived metabolites in a glutamine-independent manner. These data show that the inhibition of HDAC1 ameliorates H/R-inflammation in macrophages through the regulation of Nur77 and the TCA cycle.
