Table 1. Occasions of SIRT1 – PARP interaction in oxidative stress-related pathologies.

Organ system Disease Partners Models Mechanism Effect Ref.
Cardiovascular
system
Angiotensin-induced
cardiac hypertrophy
PARP-1
SIRT1
PARP-1−/− mice,
primary
cardiomyocytes treated
with resveratrol, SIRT1
siRNA, or by SIRT1
overexpression.
PARP-1 activation inhibits
SIRT1 through NAD+
depletion.
Both SIRT1 activation
and PARP inhibition
protect against
angiotensin II-mediated
and oxidant-mediated
cardiomyocyte cell
death.
(Pillai, et al. 2006.)
Heart failure (aortic
banding model)
PARP-1
SIRT1
Cardiomyocytes
overexpressing PARP-1,
SIRT1, or treated
with resveratrol,
sirtinol, SIRT1 siRNA
PARP-1 limits NAD+ levels
and hence SIRT1 activity
through limiting NAD+ for
SIRT1 action and probably
by repressing SIRT1
expression.
SIRT1 induction protect
against oxidant-induced
cardiomyocytes cell
death.
(Pillai, et al. 2005.)
Shear stress on
endothelial cells
PARP-1
SIRT1
HUVEC cells
undergoing shear
stress treated with
ABT888 and
PARP-1 siRNA
Shear stress decrease
NAD+ levels, SIRT1 activity
and expression that is
reverted by PARP-1
depletion, or inhibition.
Proinflammatory
conditions and cell
death provoked by
shear stress is
reduced.
(Qin, et al. 2012.)
DOX-induced
vascular damage
PARP-2
SIRT1
PARP-2 knockout mice
and PARP-2
knockdown MOVAS
cells
SIRT1 promoter is released
from suppression upon
PARP-2 depletion that
induces mitochondrial
biogenesis.
Vascular protection
against DOX damage
upon SIRT1 induction
after PARP-2
depletion.
(Szanto, et al. 2011.)
Central nervous
system
Trophic deprivation
and oxidant mediated
neuronal cell death
PARP-1
SIRT1
Near-pure cortical
neuronal cell cultures
from PARP-1−/− mice.
Same neurons treated
with fisetin, resveratrol
and sirtinol.
PARP-1 activation inhibits
SIRT1 through NAD+
depletion. Protective effect of
SIRT1 activation is not
explained.
Both SIRT1 activation
and PARP inhibition
protect against
neurotoxicity.
(Sheline, et al. 2010.)
Glutamate/NMDA
neurotoxicity
PARP-1
SIRT1
Dissociated
cerebral cortical cell
cultures from
embryonic rat treated
with sirtinol and
resveratrol.
NMDA treatment reduces
SIRT1 activation probably
due to PARP activation and
NAD+ depletion. Protective
effect of SIRT1 activation is
not explained.
Reduction of cell death
upon SIRT1 activation
and PARP inhibition.
(Liu, et al. 2008.)
(Liu, et al. 2009.)
Gastrointestinal
tract
Glucose toxicity on
hepatocytes
PARP-1
SIRT1
HepG2 cells treated
with PJ34 and PARP-1
siRNA.
PARP-1 activation
decreases SIRT1 activity
that is restored by PARP
inhibition probably through
conservation of NAD+ levels.
Glucose toxicity is
reverted by PARP
inhibition.
(Pang, et al. 2011.)

Abbreviations in text.

Fistein and resveratrol are SIRT1 activators, sirtinol is a SIRT1 inhibitor, 3-amino-benzamide (3AB) and PJ34 are PARP inhibitors.
