    Abstract:
    Carbon monoxide (CO) exerts protective effects on hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), but the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is an important mediator of injury and inflammation in hepatic IRI. Here, we investigated whether CO could attenuate hepatic IRI via inhibition of HMGB1 release, particularly through sirtuin 1 (SIRT1). CO was released by treatment with carbon monoxide-releasing molecule (CORM)-2. CORM-2-delivered CO ameliorated hepatic IRI, as indicated by lower serum aminotransferase levels, lower hepatic inflammatory responses, and less severe ischemia/reperfusion-associated histopathologic changes. Treatment with CORM-2 significantly inhibited IRI-induced HMGB1 translocation and release. SIRT1 expression was increased by CORM-2 pretreatment. When CORM-2-induced SIRT1 expression was inhibited using EX527, HMGB1 translocation and release were increased and hepatic IRI was worsened, whereas SIRT1 activation by resveratrol reversed this trend. In vitro, CORM-2 reduced hypoxia/reoxygenation-induced HMGB1 translocation and release, these inhibitions were blocked by SIRT1 inhibition using EX527 or SIRT1 small interfering RNA both in alpha mouse liver 12 cells and RAW264.7 macrophages. Moreover, SIRT1 directly interacted with and deacetylated HMGB1. IRI increased HMGB1 acetylation, which was abolished by CORM-2 treatment via SIRT1. In conclusion, these results suggest that CO may increase SIRT1 expression, which may decrease HMGB1 acetylation and subsequently reduce its translocation and release, thereby protecting against hepatic IRI.
