Sirtuins—The New Important Players in Women’s Gynecological Health
The participation of sirtuins in the regulation of oxidative stress and inflammation lies at the basis of their possible modes of action and is related to their expression in various cell structures; their location in the mitochondria and blood plasma ...

Regulation of sirtuin function by posttranslational modifications
Sirtuins are homologs of the yeast silencing information regulator 2 (Sir2) protein, an NAD+-dependent (histone) deacetylase. In mammals 7 different sirtuins, SIRT1-7, have been identified, which share a common catalytic core domain but possess distinct ...

Effect of breed on the expression of Sirtuins (Sirt1-7) and antioxidant capacity in porcine brain
Sirtuins, NAD-dependent histone deacetylase (HDAC), are correlated to aging and antioxidant. The aim of this study was to determine breed differences of porcine Sirtuins expression and antioxidant capacity in brain between Jinhua pigs (a fatty breed of ...

Sirtuin Modulators in Cellular and Animal Models of Human Diseases
Sirtuins use NAD+ to remove various acyl groups from protein lysine residues. Through working on different substrate proteins, they display many biological functions, including regulation of cell proliferation, genome stability, metabolism, and cell ...

Oncometabolic role of mitochondrial sirtuins in glioma patients.
Mitochondrial sirtuins have diverse role specifically in aging, metabolism and cancer. In cancer, these sirtuins play dichotomous role as tumor suppressor and promoter.

Sirtuins are evolutionarily conserved NAD-dependent deacetylases that catalyze the cleavage of NAD+ into nicotinamide (NAM), which can act as a pan-sirtuin inhibitor in unicellular and multicellular organisms.

Sirtuins at the Service of Healthy Longevity
Sirtuins may counteract at least six hallmarks of organismal aging: neurodegeneration, chronic but ineffective inflammatory response, metabolic syndrome, DNA damage, genome instability, and cancer incidence.
