Objective:To analyze the expression of sirtuin type 1 (SIRT1) signal pathway in intestinal tissues of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), and to preliminarily explore the role of SIRT1 in the occurrence of NEC.Methods: From January 2017 to June 2017, the ileal tissues of 35 neonates with NEC underwent one-stage fistula treatment were selected as NEC group, and the ileal tissues of these 35 neonates underwent two-stage fistula treatment were selected as control group. The expression levels of SIRT1, transcription factor-nuclear factor (NF-κB), and SUMO specific protease 1 (SENP1) were detected by qRT-PCR;the expressions of SIRT1, NF-κB, and SENP1 were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting (WB). Results: SIRT1 mRNA, protein positive expression rate, average optical density, and relative protein expression in intestinal tissues of children in NEC group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.05), however, the expression of NF-κB, the SENP1 mRNA and protein positive expression rates, the average optical density, and relative protein expression were significantly increased (P<0.05).Conclusion: SIRT1 is low expressed in intestinal tissues of children with NEC, the possible reason is that SIRT1 signaling pathway is suppressed and then NEC occurs.
