When Sirtuins and NF- mu B Collide
Both the sirtuins and certain transcription factors of the NF- Kappa B/Rel family control aging-associated changes in gene expression. Kawahara et al. (2009) now show a requirement in mice for the sirtuin SIRT6 in dampening NF- Kappa B-dependent gene expression, thus unveiling a potential link betwe...

Zusammenfassung: | Both the sirtuins and certain transcription factors of the NF- Kappa B/Rel family control aging-associated changes in gene expression. Kawahara et al. (2009) now show a requirement in mice for the sirtuin SIRT6 in dampening NF- Kappa B-dependent gene expression, thus unveiling a potential link between inflammation, aging, and metabolism. |
