Sirtuins: from metabolic regulation to brain aging
Brain aging is characterized by progressive loss of neurophysiological functions that is often accompanied by age-associated neurodegeneration. Calorie restriction has been linked to extension of lifespan and reduction of the risk of neurodegenerative diseases in experimental model systems. Several signaling pathways have been indicated to underlie the beneficial effects of calorie restriction,...
متن کاملUre(k)a! Sirtuins Regulate Mitochondria
Increasing evidence suggests that multiple metabolic pathways are regulated by sirtuin-dependent protein deacetylation in the mitochondria. In this issue, Nakagawa et al. (2009) show that the sirtuin SIRT5 deacetylates and activates a mitochondrial enzyme, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1, which mediates the first step in the urea cycle.
متن کاملMammalian Sirtuins and Energy Metabolism
Sirtuins are highly conserved NAD+-dependent protein deacetylases and/or ADP-ribosyltransferases that can extend the lifespan of several lower model organisms including yeast, worms and flies. The seven mammalian sirtuins, SIRT1 to SIRT7, have emerged as key metabolic sensors that directly link environmental signals to mammalian metabolic homeostasis and stress response. Recent studies have she...
متن کاملSirtuins and the Metabolic Hurdles in Cancer
The nutrient demands of cancer cannot be met by normal cell metabolism. Cancer cells undergo dramatic alteration of metabolic pathways in a process called reprogramming, characterized by increased nutrient uptake and re-purposing of these fuels for biosynthetic, bioenergetic or signaling pathways. Partitioning carbon sources toward growth and away from ATP production necessitates other means of...
متن کاملSirtuins: novel targets for metabolic disease.
Sirtuins represent a novel family of enzymes that are collectively well situated to help regulate nutrient sensing and utilization, metabolic rate and ultimately metabolic disease. Activation of one of these enzymes, SIRT1, leads to enhanced activity of multiple proteins, including peroxisome-proliferator activated receptor coactivator-1alpha (PGC-1alpha), which helps to mediate some of the in ...
