General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | sirtuins, silent mating-type information regulation 2 (SIRTs), are a family of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent histone deacetylases with important roles in regulating energy metabolism and senescence. SIRT6 reduces the upregulation of genes involved in inflammation, vascular remodeling, oxidative stress, and angiogenesis, including interleukin 1-beta | Homo sapiens |
metabolism | role of SIRTs in human atherosclerosis, overview | Homo sapiens |
additional information | the core domain of SIRT6 is flanked by an N-terminal, which is necessary for histone deacetylation and chromatin association, and a C-terminal, which is required for the nuclear localization of this SIRT subtype | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | roles of SIRT6 and SIRT activators on the progression of atherosclerosis and ultimately on cardiac outcomes, such as myocardial infarction and mortality. Potential interactions of SIRTS with pathophysiological processes in atherosclerosis, overview | Homo sapiens |
