Sirtuin 1: A Dilemma in Transplantation
Sirtuin 1, a member of sirtuin family of histone deacetylase enzymes, has been implicated in a variety of physiologic and pathologic events, including energy metabolism, cell survival, and age-related alterations.

New Insights for nicotinamide: Metabolic disease, autophagy, and mTOR
Metabolic disorders, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), are increasingly becoming significant risk factors for the health of the global population and consume substantial portions of the gross domestic product of all nations. Although conventional therapies

Inverse association of circulating SIRT1 and adiposity. A study on underweight, normal weight, and obese patients [PDF]
Context: Sirtuins (SIRTs) are NAD+-dependent deacetylases, cellular sensors to detect energy availability, and modulate metabolic processes. SIRT1, the most studied family member, influences a number of tissues including adipose tissue.

Sirtuins: New Roles for Sirtuins in Aging and Disease [PDF]
Abstract Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent enzymes related to yeast silent information regulator-2, a histone deacetylase that prevents premature aging through chromatin silencing. Mammalian sirtuins, SIRT1-SIRT7, have key functions that protect against diverse aging-related pathologic states, from cancer to metabolic and neurodegenerative ...

RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

The Role of PGC-1α and Mitochondrial Biogenesis in Kidney Diseases
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the fastest growing causes of death worldwide, emphasizing the need to develop novel therapeutic approaches. CKD predisposes to acute kidney injury (AKI) and AKI favors CKD progression.

SIRT4, together with SIRT3 and SIRT5, comprises the mitochondrially localized subgroup of sirtuins. SIRT4 regulates mitochondrial bioenergetics, dynamics (mitochondrial fusion), and quality control (mitophagy) via its NAD+‐dependent enzymatic activities.

Effects of an Unusual Poison Identify a Lifespan Role for Topoisomerase 2 in Saccharomyces Cerevisiae [PDF]
A progressive loss of genome maintenance has been implicated as both a cause and consequence of aging. Here we present evidence supporting the hypothesis that an age-associated decay in genome maintenance promotes aging in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast)

Retinal Aging and Sirtuins [PDF]
The process of aging involves the accumulating changes in the microenvironment that lead to cell senescence or apoptosis, and subsequent tissue or organ dysfunction. Multiple extrinsic and intrinsic events that cause DNA instability are associated with aging.
