Sirtuins In Neurodegenerative Diseases: An Update On Potential Mechanisms
Silent information regulator 2 proteins (sirtuins or SIRTs) are a group of deacetylases (or deacylases) whose activities are dependent on and regulated by nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Compelling evidence supports that sirtuins play major roles in many aspects of physiology, especially i...
