Sirtuins, Aging, and Metabolism [PDF]
Sirtuins are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent protein deacetylases that link protein acetylation, metabolism, aging, and diseases of aging. Sirtuins were initially found to slow aging in lower organisms and more recently shown to mediate many effects of calorie restriction on metabolism and longevity in mammals. This chapter focuses on

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...

The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

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 ...

Artificial Chlorella Biohybrids for Alleviation of Cartilage Degeneration in Osteoarthritis
Artificial Chlorella biohybrids (Ch@P) alleviate cartilage degeneration and protect against OA progression by activating mitophagy and reprogramming glucose metabolism in chondrocytes, as well as inducing articular thermal stimulation under near infrared irradiation.

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Emerging Evidence concerning the Role of Sirtuins in Sepsis
Sepsis, a dysregulated host response to infection, is a major public health concern. Though experimental and clinical studies relating to sepsis are increasing, the mechanism of sepsis is not completely understood.

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.
