Abstract
Introduction
The sirtuin family proteins (SIRT) are class III histone deacetylases (HDACs) comprised of seven members (SIRT1-7). Sirtuin proteins are widely expressed in normal tissues and reported to be involved in several biological processes (1–4) (Fig. 1). SIRT1 was the first family member to be discovered and is still the most studied. Its biological role in cancer has been studied extensively, yet there are conflicting results regarding the association between the two as SIRT1 is known to suppress or promote cancer depending on its cellular content or type (2–4). The expression level of SIRT1 has been shown to play an important role in the pathogenesis of oral cancer (5–8), the sixth most frequent cancer worldwide, with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) being, by far, the commonest single entity, accounting for about 90% of all malignancies in the oral cavity and posing a major public health problem in many Asian countries (9). The etiologies of oral cancer include betel quid chewing, smoking, alcohol consumption, genetic predisposition, and viruses, including human papillomavirus (HPV) (9,10). The overall 5-year survival rates for patients with OSCC (ranging from 34 to 62.9%) have not significantly improved for decades in spite of advances in the field of oncology. These findings underscore the importance of encouraging new areas of research on factors that modify oral cancer and therapeutic targets to treat it. The purpose of this review is to summarize the findings of recent publications on SIRT1 with regard to oral cancer and to discuss its importance as a possible therapeutic agent. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first review evaluating the biological role of SIRT1 in the modulation of oral cancer.
Overview of SIRT1 functions
SIRT1 is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent class III HDAC protein. High levels of NAD+ induce SIRT1 activity, whereas high NADH levels inhibit its function. Due to its localization, SIRT1 is capable of deacetylating lysine residues on nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins, which is thought to affect their stability, transcriptional activity, and translocation (1). Over the years, SIRT1 has been a major point of focus in biomedical research due to its diversified roles in various pathophysiological states (2–4). It plays contradictory roles in cancer and has an elaborate network of interactions that are directly involved in tumour biology (11–23) (Table I).
SIRT1 and tumour development
SIRT1 plays a key role in epigenetic regulation of gene expression by changing the structure of chromatin. It has been reported to deacetylate both histone and non-histone proteins. Deacetylation of histones by SIRT1 has been shown to induce chromatin condensation, whereas acetylation by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) causes chromatin decondensation. This balance is crucial for normal cellular functions, and any disturbance of it will be related to cancer (24). SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of non-histone proteins has been suggested to be more important in cancer than histones (24,25). In tumour biology, SIRT1 seems to play contradictory roles and deregulation of SIRT1 expression has frequently been reported in many human malignancies (4,26–38) (Table II).
On the one hand, SIRT1 has been reported to deacetylate and inactivate p53, thereby allowing cells to bypass p53-induced apoptosis (22,39). Similarly, during cellular oxidative stress, SIRT1-mediated deacetylation of forkhead box O3 alpha (Foxo3a) has been shown to induce cell survival rather than apoptosis (4,22,39). This is good for normal cells to prolong their lifespan but in tumour cells, this effect is not at all desirable since it aggravates tumour growth. Meanwhile, overexpression of SIRT1 has been demonstrated to induce angiogenesis in cancer cells via increases in the expression of angiogenic growth factors (40). Taken together, these studies suggest that SIRT1 may bring more nutrition to cancer cells and lead to their enhanced growth, proliferation, and survival.
As opposed to what occurs during cellular oxidative stress, SIRT1 has been shown to induce mitochondrial translocation of p53, leading to enhanced p53-independent mitochondrial apoptosis (22). The DNA repair mechanisms and genomic stability functions of SIRT1 imply a protective effect against cancer (reviewed in 2–4). Therefore, the question arises as to whether SIRT1 acts primarily as an oncogene or a tumour suppressor. It is, however, strongly evident that SIRT1 is a critical regulator in the pathogenesis of tumours. To clarify the contradictory roles of SIRT1 in tumorigenesis, further studies are necessary.
Modulation of SIRT1 in oral cancer
The regulatory role of SIRT1 in oral cancer is vigorously debated owing to the belief that it can have both tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic roles (5–8) (Table III). Altered levels of SIRT1 expression have a significant impact on the pathophysiology of oral cancer. Downregulation of SIRT1 expression is correlated with the metastatic phenotype, whereas upregulation of this protein results in opposite effects (5–8). It has been reported that stable expression of SIRT1 aids in maintaining epithelial integrity by inducing the expression of epithelial-cadherin (E-cadherin), and this contributes to the prevention of both invasion and metastasis in oral cancer (5–7). Conflicting data have also been reported for prostate carcinoma. It has been reported that SIRT1 mediates deacetylation of histone H3, causing transcriptional repression of E-cadherin and leading to invasion and metastasis (41). However, SIRT1 has been demonstrated to inhibit transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β)-mediated malignant transformation, invasion and metastasis in oral cancer (5). TGF-β is a growth factor and its overexpression has been frequently reported to be involved in precancerous oral lesions, leading to oral cancer (42,43). Increased expression of TGF-β has been shown to enhance malignant transformation, invasion and metastasis in oral epithelial cells by inducing its downstream targets (5–6,43). Similarly, overexpressed TGF-β acts on fibroblasts and has been reported to increase myofibroblastic transdifferentiation (42,43). Myofibroblasts are the major source for collagen synthesis in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of connective tissues, and continuous increases in the deposition of collagen lead to the pathogenesis of oral submucous fibrosis (OSF), a precancerous condition (42,43) (Fig. 2). The malignant transformation rate in patients with OSF ranges from 7–13% (10). SIRT1 has been shown to induce transcriptional suppression of TGF-β-mediated downstream targets in fibroblasts and to prevent malignant transformation (44). Based on these observations, SIRT1 may have the ability to prevent malignant transformation, invasion, and metastasis.
Recently, our group evaluated a significant association between arecoline and the expression of SIRT1 in oral epithelial cells. Arecoline, the major alkaloid in betel quid, has been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of oral cancer by facilitating the cellular transformation and transcriptional repression of tumour suppressor genes (TSGs) (10,45,46). We discovered that arecoline significantly induced DNA hypermethylation, followed by downregulation of SIRT1 expression in oral epithelial cells. The frequency of DNA hypermethylation was found to be associated with precancerous oral lesions (data not shown). Our data suggest that arecoline-mediated downregulation of SIRT1 expression may be involved in the initial stage of transformation of normal cells to oral cancer and the development of precancerous oral lesions induced by betel quid chewing. Our results fit well with the observation of an association of SIRT1 and TGF-β, wherein arecoline-mediated downregulation of SIRT1 expression in oral epithelial cells fails to prevent TGF-β-induced malignant transformation in the oral mucosa of betel quid chewers. Taken together, these results suggest that SIRT1 could serve as a tumour suppressor in oral cancer. However, it remains unclear how it directly affects this process.
Conversely, despite evidence of the tumour-suppressing effects of SIRT1, some studies have demonstrated the promoting effects of this protein (8). Upregulation of annexin A4 has been shown to promote the progression and chemoresistance of numerous tumours (47). Overexpression of SIRT1 has been reported to induce cisplatin resistance in oral cancer by elevating the level of annexin A4 (8), and chemical inhibitors of SIRT1 significantly abolish this action (8). Hypoxia within the tumour microenvironment has a well-documented role to promote tumorigenesis. Recent reports investigating the role of SIRT1 under hypoxia have demonstrated that it promotes tumorigenesis via incorporation with hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) (48). Based on these findings, SIRT1 might have a significant tumour-inducing effect. Thus, further studies are needed to clarify this issue and evaluate new therapeutic approaches.
Therapeutic potential of HDACs in malignancy
Activators and inhibitors of HDACs have been developed in recent years and, to date, three histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACis) have received United States Food and Drug Administration approval for therapeutic use (49–63) (Table IV).
The use of HDACis in combination with conventional chemotherapeutic agents has already been reported to be a promising strategy against oral cancer (64–71) (Table V). The class III HDAC SIRT1 is considered to be both a promoter and suppressor. Inhibitors of SIRT1 have attracted interest and been found to induce apoptosis in various cancer cell lines. Similarly, activators of SIRT1 have been shown to possess the ability to prevent numerous cancers, including leukaemia, skin cancer, prostate cancer and multiple myeloma (25,34,62,63,72). Therefore, the conflicting data reported in the literature support the use of both activators and inhibitors of SIRT1 as strategies for cancer therapy; hence, care needs to be taken regarding the cytotoxicity and the dose of this protein when it is administered as a therapeutic agent.
Future research perspectives and possible therapeutic applications of SIRT1 in oral cancer
In spite of being involved in various physiological and pathological processes, the effects of altered SIRT1 expression in oral cancer are inconsistent. Reactive oxygen species (ROSs) are the strongest risk factor associated with the pathogenesis of oral cancer (10). Habits such as betel quid chewing have been reported to induce generation of ROSs in the oral epithelium and lead to genetic instability by damaging DNA and other macromolecules (10,45). SIRT1 has been shown to increase the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes such as glutathione and superoxide dismutase 2 and prevent ROS-mediated genomic alterations (73). Consistent with this premise, it is hypothesized that SIRT1 may play a significant role in inhibiting the synthesis of ROSs and prevent DNA and macromolecule damage in the oral mucosa of betel quid chewers. Further studies are thus warranted to evaluate the regulatory mechanism of SIRT1 in ROS generation in oral epithelial cells. Moreover, as demonstrated in some of the studies cited above, SIRT1 may prevent TGF-β-mediated invasion and metastasis in oral cancer (5,42,43). TGF-β is a growth factor and remains hidden in its inactive state in the ECM (74). αvβ6 integrin has been shown to facilitate the activation of the TGF-β downstream pathway by allowing it to bind with its receptors (74) (Fig. 3).
αv is the only integrin that can form a dimer with β6, and β6 integrin is normally not expressed in healthy adult epithelial cells, whereas its overexpression is associated with preneoplastic epithelial phenotypes. As a result, formation of a stable αvβ6 integrin dimer is related to TGF-β-mediated invasion and metastasis in the oral epithelium (75). CREB-binding protein (CBP) is a HAT and it has been reported that CBP mediates acetylation in the promoter region of β6 integrin and induces its expression in preneoplastic epithelium. This induced expression of β6 integrin enhances the formation of αvβ6 dimers and results in invasion and metastasis in oral cancer (76). Since SIRT1 is a deacetylase, it is hypothesized that it may induce transcriptional suppression of β6 integrin via deacetylation in the promoter region and prevent invasion and metastasis in oral cancer. Thus, further studies are warranted to evaluate the use of SIRT1-based therapeutic approaches in oral cancer.
Concluding remarks
Based on results of the studies referred to above and our current data, it is hypothesized that SIRT1 may play a significant tumour-suppressive role in oral cancer. Future studies will undoubtedly pinpoint the molecular mechanisms via which SIRT1 influences oral carcinogenesis and identify efficacious SIRT1 activators for the prevention or treatment of precancerous oral lesions that can lead to oral cancer.
