Scientists from Johns Hopkins and the University of Wisconsin have discovered that a protein called Sir2, which is found in nearly all living cells, has a new function that might help explain how ...
Emerging longevity research suggests the body’s stress-response proteins could play a bigger role in healthy aging than previously thought. Sirtuins are sometimes described as the body’s “longevity ...
The enzyme sirtuin 6, or SIRT6, serves many key biological functions in regulating genome stability, DNA repair, metabolism and longevity, but how its multiple enzyme activities relate to its various ...
The human heart is a remarkable muscle, beating more than 2 billion times over the average life span. But the heart's efficiency can decrease over time. One major contributor to this decreased ...
Naturally occurring pigments in berries, also known as anthocyanins, increase the function of the sirtuin 6 enzyme in cancer cells, a new study from the University of Eastern Finland shows. The ...
