ABSTRACT Insulin resistance is the biological phenomenon in which the human body's normal response to the metabolic hormone insulin is compromised. Insulin is a regulator of most of the essential metabolic steps in the body that control energy homoeostasis, so dysregulation leads to multiple diverse human diseases including, most prominently, Type 2 ...

Selective targeting of cortactin tandem repeat acetylation by human lysine deacetylases
Cortactin function is regulated by acetylation at several lysine residues within its tandem repeat region. Using genetic code expansion to generate cortactin variants containing precisely defined acetylation marks, we show that HDAC6 is the primary enzyme removing these modifications, with SIRT1 and SIRT2 also acting at selected sites but with lower ...

In our everyday lives, we are constantly being exposed to DNA damaging agents, both from internal and external sources. The most deleterious type of DNA damage a cell can suffer is the DNA double‐stranded break (DSB). Breast Cancer 1 (BRCA1) is a protein necessary for the proper repair of resultant DNA DSBs through the homologous ...

How does sleep deprivation affect the brain? We performed a meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptional profiling datasets characterising the effects of sleep deprivation on cortical gene expression (n = 293 mice, 16,290 genes) and validated our results in an independent sample (n = 222 mice).

14‐3‐3 proteins: Regulators of cardiac excitation–contraction coupling and stress responses
Abstract figure legend 14‐3‐3 protein interactions in cardiac regulation. Schematic representation of 14‐3‐3 binding partners in excitation–contraction coupling, transcriptional regulation/development and stress response pathways. Asterisks indicate targets where the exact 14‐3‐3 binding site is unknown.

Expression of SIRT2 and SIRT6 in Retinoblastoma
<b><i>Purpose:</i></b> SIRT2 and SIRT6 are members of the sirtuin family and are associated with cancer development and progression in certain tumours, but their expression in retinoblastoma has not been studied. The primary objective of our study was to determine the expression of SIRT2 and SIRT6 in human retinoblastoma cases. &

SIRT2 inhibition achieves neuroprotection by decreasing sterol biosynthesis [PDF]
Huntington’s disease (HD), an incurable neurodegenerative disorder, has a complex pathogenesis including protein aggregation and the dysregulation of neuronal transcription and metabolism. Here, we demonstrate that inhibition of sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) achieves neuroprotection in cellular and invertebrate models of HD.

Recently, emerging evidences show that sirtuins (SIRTs) modulate aging progress and affect neurodegenerative diseases. For example, inhibition of SIRT2 has been recognized to exert neuroprotective effects in Parkinson’s disease (PD).

SIRT2 alleviated renal fibrosis by deacetylating SMAD2 and SMAD3 in renal tubular epithelial cells
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is the primary factor that drives fibrosis in most, if not all, forms of chronic kidney disease. In kidneys that are obstructed, specific deletion of Sirt2 in renal tubule epithelial cells (TEC) has been shown to ...
