The Pathogenic Yeast Candida parapsilosis Forms Pseudohyphae through Different Signaling Pathways Depending on the Available Carbon Source

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
Candida parapsilosis is an emerging fungal pathogen that primarily affects immunocompromised patients in hospitals. A significant risk factor is the use of implanted medical devices, which support the growth of biofilms composed of a mixture of ...

Sirtuin Modulators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Members of the sirtuin family including the founding protein Sir2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been linked to lifespan extension in simple organisms. This finding prompted evaluation of the role of Sir2 orthologues in many aging-associated conditions including neurodegeneration, type II diabetes and cancer.

Sirtuins in Neuroendocrine Regulation and Neurological Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) is a mammalian homolog of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent deacetylase sirtuin family. Sirtuin was originally studied as the lifespan-extending gene, silent information regulator 2 (SIRT2) in ...

It takes two to tango: NAD+ and sirtuins in aging/longevity control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The coupling of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) breakdown and protein deacylation is a unique feature of the family of proteins called ‘sirtuins.’ This intimate connection between NAD+ and sirtuins has an ancient origin and provides a ...

Modulation of sirtuins during monolayer chondrocyte culture influences cartilage regeneration upon transfer to a 3D culture environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
This study examined the role of sirtuins in the regenerative potential of articular chondrocytes. Sirtuins (SIRT1-7) play a key role in regulating cartilage homeostasis.

Sirtuin functions and modulation: from chemistry to the clinic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sirtuins are NAD+ -dependent histone deacetylases regulating important metabolic pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes and are involved in many biological processes such as cell survival, senescence, proliferation, apoptosis, DNA repair, cell ...

Insights regarding sirtuin-dependent gene regulation during white koji production

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2022
White koji, a solid-state culture of Aspergillus luchuensis mut. kawachii using grains such as rice and barley, is used as a source of amylolytic enzymes and citric acid for the production of shochu, a traditional Japanese distilled spirit. We previously
