ABSTRACT
Sepsis is defined as life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Sepsis causes a high mortality rate and current treatment focuses on supportive therapies but lacks specific therapeutic targets. Notably, sirtuins (SIRTs) shows potential clinical application in the treatment of sepsis. It has been demonstrated that SIRTs, the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide+(NAD+)-dependent deacetylases that regulate key signaling pathways in eukaryotes and prokaryotes, are involved in a variety of biological processes. To date, seven mammalian yeast Sir2 homologs have been identified. SIRTs can regulate inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, autophagy, and other pathways that play important roles in sepsis-induced organ dysfunction. However, the existing studies on SIRTs in sepsis are too scattered, and there is no relevant literature to integrate them. This review innovatively summarizes the different mechanisms of SIRTs in sepsis organ dysfunction according to the different systems, and focuses on SIRT agonists, inhibitors, and targeted drugs that have been proved to be effective in the treatment of sepsis, so as to integrate the clinical research and basic research closely. We searched PubMed for all literature related to SIRTs and sepsis since its inception using the following medical subject headings sirtuins, SIRTs, and sepsis. Data on the mechanisms of SIRTs in sepsis-induced organ damage and their potential as targets for disease treatment were extracted.
