Antibodies used were specific for ATPase subunit α and β (Invitrogen Molecular Probes), monoclonal and polyclonal acetyllysine (Cell Signaling Technology), SIRT3 (as described3 (link)), ETF and LCAD (generously provided by Jerry Vockley, University of Pittsburgh). Oxidation of [1-14C] palmitic acid by tissue homogenate was adapted from a previously established method26 (link). Briefly, tissue was homogenized in sucrose/Tris/EDTA buffer, and was incubated for 30–60 min in the reaction mixture (pH 8.0), containing [1-14C] palmitic acid, and measured for acid-soluble metabolites (ASM) and trapped CO2. Enzymatic activity for LCAD was measured using the anaerobic electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) fluorescence reduction assay27 (link) using 2, 6-dimethyheptanoyl-CoA as a substrate in recombinant LCAD expressed and purified from HEK293T cells with wild-type or catalytically inactive SIRT3, or in E. coli in the absence (Control) or presence of nicotinamide (NAM, 50 mM)28 (link).

Sirt3 floxed (Sirt3L2/L2) mice were generated using standard gene targeting procedures26 (link). These animals were crossed with liver-specific Cre-expressing mice (Alb-Cre)18 (link) to obtain the Sirt3hep−/− mouse line; or with the skeletal muscle-specific Cre-expressing line (HSA-Cre)17 (link) to obtain the Sirt3skm−/− line. These two mouse lines were backcrossed onto a pure C57BL/6J background. All animal work in the manuscript has been performed according to the validated standard operating procedures (SOPs)23 (link), as defined and validated by the Eumorphia program (see: http://empress.har.mrc.ac.uk/). Briefly, we subjected our mice to non-invasive monitoring of body fat and lean mass by EchoMRI; energy expenditure analysis by indirect calorimetry (CLAMS system); intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (ipGTT); insulin tolerance test (ipITT); blood sampling before and after a 24 fast; endurance exercise on a treadmill; non-invasive blood pressure measurement; and cold test. A summary of these methods is given in the supplementary materials and methods section. Animal experiments were approved by the ethic veterinary committee of the canton of Vaud - Switzerland (Permit IDs 2307 and 2307-1).

First, we treated the NPCs with DHJSD (300 μg/mL) for 24 h before administrating IL-1β to investigate the effect of DHJSD on NPCs. After that, we pretreated NPCs with DHJSD (300 μg/mL) alone or combined with cyclosporin A (1 μM) for 24 h before IL-1β administration. To explore how miR-494 affected NPCs, we designed a miR-494 inhibitor and mimic and their negative control and synthesized them through GenePharma (Shanghai, China). They were then transfected into NPCs using lipofectamine 2000 before IL-1β administration. To knock down SIRT3 expression, scrambled siRNA (siScr) and short interfering (si) RNA targeting SIRT3 (si-sirt3) were designed and bought from GenePharma (Shanghai, China). The NPCs were co-transfected by adopting miR-494 suppressor (150 nM) and si-sirt3 (100 nM) for 48 h using lipofectamine 2000. Finally, NPCs were either treated with DHJSD alone or pretransfected with miR-494 mimic (50 nM) or si-sirt3 (100 nM) for 24 h to explore the role of mir-494/SIRT3/mitophagy signal axis on DHJSD activity.

The RNA of NPCs was extracted by applying the TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) based on the manufacturer’s instructions. The RNA content was determined at a wavelength of 260 nm using a spectrometer. Reverse transcription of 1 μg total RNA was used for synthesizing cDNA, and a reaction volume of 10 μL (4.5 μL diluted cDNA, 0.25 μL primers and 5 μL 2 × SYBR Master Mix) was used for PCR amplification. The cycle threshold was recorded. The target gene expression level was normalized to the GAPDH level, and the miR-494 level was normalized to that of U6. The expression of SIRT3 and miR-494 was calculated using the 2−ΔΔCt approach. The primers employed are provided in Table 1.

Mitochondrial, cytoplasmic and total proteins were extracted, and the corresponding kit (Beyotime) was used to detect the content. Thereafter, 25 µg of protein was subjected to sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The protein was transferred to a polyvinylidene fluoride film (Millipore, Billerica, Massachusetts, USA) using a semidry method. The polyvinylidene fluoride film was soaked in TBST containing 5% skimmed milk powder and sealed with a shaker for 2 h at room temperature. The blots were incubated overnight, with the primary antibodies diluted from 1:500 to 1:1000. The antibodies were used against the proteins listed below: Parkin (ab77924), PINK1 (ab23707), Bax (ab32503), Bcl-2 (ab32124), Cyt-c (ab110325), Collagen II (ab34712), Adamts5(ab41037) (Abcam, Cambridge, UK); P62 (#5114), LC3 (#2775), SIRT3 (#2627S), GAPDH (#5174), Caspase-3 (#9662) and Cleaved-Caspase-3 (#9664) (Cell Signaling Technology; Danvers, Massachusetts, USA); VDAC1 (sc-32063) (Santa Cruz Biotechnology; Dallas, Texas, USA); Aggrecan (13880-1-AP) and MMP3 (17873-1-AP) (Wuhan Sanying, Wuhan, China). After rinsing the film, the proper secondary antibody was incubated through the blot for 1 h at 25 °C. The film’s gray values were analyzed after darkroom exposure using Image J software v1.46 (NIH, Bethesda, MD, USA).

The bioinformatics algorithms and related databases were used to search for the potential targets for miR-494. SIRT3 was confirmed to have an assumed binding site on miR-494. Wild-type (WT) and mutant (MUT) 3′-UTR fragments containing the assumed miR-494 binding site were amplified and inserted into the pGL3 vector (RiboBio). HEK 293 cells were seeded in a 6-well plate, grown in an incubator at 37 °C for 24 h with 5% CO2 and then co-transfected with 100 ng of pGL3 vector harboring MUT 3′-UTR or WT and 40 nM of miR-Scr or miR-494 mimic employing transfection reagent, lipofectamine 2000. The cells were harvested in 48 h to detect luciferase activity through a dual luciferase reporter assay kit (Promega, Madison, Wisconsin, USA).
