Abstract:
Silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog-1 ( SIRT1 ) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide ( NAD)-dependent deacetylase, which can deacetylate histone and non-histone proteins and is involved in many life proces-ses, such as energy metabolism, cell senescence and apoptosis.SIRT1 can enhance the cellular energy supply, inhibit cell apoptosis, alleviate inflammation, enhance the resistance of oxidative stress and improve the function of endothelial cells by deacetylating relevant factors in many vascular-related diseases.This article summarizes the current research progress in the function and signal pathway of SIRT1 in ischemic stroke, atherosclerosis and tumors.
