A pharmacological review on SIRT 1 and SIRT 2 proteins, activators, and inhibitors: Call for further research.
International Journal of Biological Macromolecules 2023 April 26
Sirtuins or Sir (Silent information regulator) are NAD+ -dependent enzymes playing an important part in the pathogenesis and treatment of various disorders. They have ubiquitously expressed protein deacetylases. They are implicated in several cellular activities like DNA repair, cellular metabolism, mitochondrial function, and inflammation. Deletion of sirtuin protein, SIRT1 in the organs like brain, heart, liver and pancreas can cause inflammation and increases the level of free radical ions causing oxidative stress. Inflammation and oxidative stress are closely associated with pathophysiological events in many chronic diseases, like diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular, osteoporosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. Modulation of SIRT1 gene expression might help in preventing the progression of chronic diseases related to the brain, heart, liver, and pancreas. SIRT2 proteins play an essential role in tumorigenesis, including tumor-suppressing and tumor-promoting functions. Sirtuin activators are molecules that upregulate the activity of Sirtuins in the body. Their multifaceted uses have surprised the global scientific community. They are found to control obesity, lower cardiac risks, battle cancer, etc. This article provides an update on the pharmacological effect of SIRT1 and SIRT 2 proteins, their activators and inhibitors, and their molecular mechanism. It provides novel insights for future research in targeted therapy and drug development.
