Trehalose supplementation increased SIRT1 levels and alleviated oxidative stress and inflammation in aged tissues, showing renoprotective effects in old rats. By modulating SIRT1 activity, trehalose may be an effective intervention to ameliorate age-associated kidney injury.
The aging process leads to progressive loss of kidney function. Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) exerts renoprotective effects by conferring resistance to cellular stresses. Trehalose potentially displayed various beneficial effects to promote health span. In this study, we investigated the effects of trehalose on renal SIRT1 and kidney function in senescent rats. Trehalose (2% w/v) was administrated in drinking water for 1 month to male aged rats (24 months). Then, the level of SIRT1 mRNA and protein, malondialdehyde, total antioxidant capacity, tumor necrosis factor alpha as well as parameters related to the function and histology of the kidneys were evaluated. Trehalose supplementation increased the level of SIRT1, whereas alleviated the level of oxidative stress, inflammation, and histopathology scores in senescent tissues. However, trehalose administration did not alter kidney function indices in old rats. Collectively, these findings suggested that trehalose was an effective intervention to ameliorate some aspects of age-associated injury in the old kidneys. Practical applications Aging is associated with impairment in renal structure and function. Trehalose is a natural disaccharide, which is widely distributed in many organisms. The consumption of trehalose as a dietary supplement is increasing worldwide. This study showed that trehalose administration to aged rats had renoprotective effects through reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, which was mediated by SIRT1. Our results provide useful information for individuals using this sugar as a supplement.
