Small molecule activators of sirtuins extend Saccharomyces cerevisiae lifespan.

                       

In diverse organisms, calorie restriction slows the pace of ageing

and increases maximum lifespan. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, calorie restriction extends lifespan by increasing the activity of Sir2 (ref. 1), a member of the conserved sirtuin family of NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylases. Included in this family are SIR-2.1, a Caenorhabditis elegans enzyme that regulates lifespan, and SIRT1, a human deacetylase that promotes cell survival by negatively regulating the p53 tumour suppressor. Here we report the discovery of three classes of small molecules that activate sirtuins. We show that the potent activator resveratrol, a polyphenol found in red wine, lowers the Michaelis constant of SIRT1 for both the acetylated substrate and NAD(+), and increases cell survival by stimulating SIRT1-dependent deacetylation of p53. In yeast, resveratrol mimics calorie restriction by stimulating Sir2, increasing DNA stability and extending lifespan by 70%. We discuss possible evolutionary origins of this phenomenon and suggest new lines of research into the therapeutic use of sirtuin activators.

      Sirtuin activators mimic caloric restriction and delay ageing in metazoans.

Caloric restriction extends lifespan in numerous species. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae this effect requires Sir2 (ref. 1), a member of the sirtuin family of NAD+-dependent deacetylases. Sirtuin activating compounds (STACs) can promote the survival of human cells and extend the replicative lifespan of yeast. Here we show that resveratrol and other STACs activate sirtuins from Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster, and extend the lifespan of these animals without reducing fecundity. Lifespan extension is dependent on functional Sir2, and is not observed when nutrients are restricted. Together these data indicate that STACs slow metazoan ageing by mechanisms that may be related to caloric restriction.

The reasoning for this article is to supply information about this wonderful product and also for me to find at least two or more people for this simply amazing opportunity.. You just need to follow the 4 simple steps.. (Join,Train,sigup 2 or more people and then you duplicate. It's that simple..) and it can make you money in the thousands with this business or just be a customer for a very satisfying experience.

There is a video (4 of them, very short (total less then 5 min)) that explains how simple this business works. Check them out then if so inclined, click on my name above and sign up either as a Customer or Distributor.

Thank You
