Sirtuins — novel therapeutic targets to treat age-associated diseases
2008
The highly conserved family of sirtuin proteins target multiple substrates, affecting a diverse range of cellular functions. Following the emergence of their potential role as regulators of mammalian lifespan, Lavu and colleagues discuss specific sirtuins that may be targeted in the treatment of diseases of ageing, including neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and cancer.
