Aging provokes both morphological and functional changes in cells, which are accompanied by a fundamental shift in gene expression patterns. One of the characteristic alterations associated with senescence in fibroblast cells is the down-regulation of collagen type I genes. In the present study, we investigated the contribution of myocardin-related transcription factor A, or MRTF-A, in this process. In mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cells and human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) cells, senescence, induced by either progressive passage or treatment with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), led to augmented lysine acetylation of MRTF-A paralleling down-regulation of collagen type I and SIRT1, a lysine deacetylase. SIRT1 interacted with MRTF-A to promote MRTF-A deacetylation. SIRT1 over-expression or activation by selective agonists enhanced trans-activation of the collagen promoters by MRTF-A. On the contrary, SIRT1 depletion or inhibition by specific antagonists suppressed trans-activation of the collagen promoters by MRTF-A. Likewise, mutation of four lysine residues within MRTF-A rendered it more potent in terms of activating the collagen promoters but unresponsive to SIRT1. Importantly, SIRT1 activation in senescent fibroblasts mitigated repression of collagen type I expression whereas SIRT1 inhibition promoted the loss of collagen type I expression prematurely in young fibroblasts. Mechanistically, SIRT1 enhanced the affinity of MRTF-A for the collagen type I promoters. In conclusion, our data unveil a novel mechanism that underscores aging-associated loss of collagen type I in fibroblasts via SIRT1-mediated post-translational modification of MRTF-A.
