The Role of Hepatic SIRT1: From Metabolic Regulation to Immune Modulation and Multi-target Therapeutic Strategies

Le résumé fourni par la source

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), the most common chronic liver disorder worldwide, results from multidimensional network dysregulation involving lipid metabolism imbalance, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, and gut-liver axis disruption. Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), an NAD+-dependent deacetylase, functions as a central regulator of metabolic homeostasis and a key mediator in immune microenvironment remodeling and inter-organ communication. This review systematically describes the multi-target mechanisms of SIRT1 in MASLD pathogenesis through its regulation of critical factors, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-α, Forkhead Box O, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells, which govern hepatocyte lipid remodeling, mitochondrial quality control, autophagy–endoplasmic reticulum stress balance, and Kupffer cell/T cell polarization. This work introduces, for the first time, the concept that SIRT1 mediates systemic regulation of MASLD via coordinated “metabolism–inflammation–organ axis” interactions. Recent studies indicate that natural compounds (e.g., resveratrol, curcumin) improve gut-liver barrier function through microbiota–SIRT1 interactions, while synthetic activators (SRT1720) and NAD+ precursors (NMN) enhance hepatocyte antioxidant capacity and fatty acid β-oxidation. This innovative analysis highlights the spatiotemporal specificity of various SIRT1 activators, emphasizing that tissue-selective delivery and dynamic dosage optimization are crucial for overcoming clinical translation challenges. By integrating mechanistic and translational insights, this review provides a novel foundation for precision intervention strategies targeting SIRT1 network reprogramming.
