Sirtuin7 oncogenic potential in human hepatocellular carcinoma and its regulation by the tumor suppressors MiR-125a-5p and MiR-125b

TLDR
It is shown that Sirtuin7 expression was up‐regulated in a large cohort of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and a regulatory loop is proposed whereby SIRT7 inhibits transcriptional activation of p21WAF1/Cip1 by way of repression of miR‐125a‐5p and miR-125b.

Sirtuins, a promising target in slowing down the ageing process

TL;DR: The involvement and usefulness of sirtuins in anti-ageing interventions are summarized and the potential role of curcumin in sIRT1-7 regulation is discussed, which is believed to be crucial for cell metabolism.

Sorting out functions of sirtuins in cancer

TL;DR: The bifurcated roles of SIRT1, and perhaps several other sirtuins, in cancer may be in part a result of the nature of the genes that are involved in the cell’s genome maintenance systems.

Activation of LncRNA TINCR by H3K27 acetylation promotes Trastuzumab resistance and epithelial-mesenchymal transition by targeting MicroRNA-125b in breast Cancer

TL;DR: TINCR could promote trastuzumab resistance and the accompanied EMT process in breast cancer and might be a potential indicator for prognosis and a therapeutic target to enhance the clinical efficacy of trastizumab treatment.

Sirtuin regulation in aging and injury

TL;DR: An overview of studies on the role of sirtuins in aging and injury is provided and it is shown that aging is reported to be characterized by declining SIRT1 activity, and its increased expression or activation demonstrated prolonged life-span in lower forms of animals.

Sirtuins as regulators of metabolism and healthspan

TL;DR: The mammalian sirtuin protein family (comprising SIRT1–SIRT7) has received much attention for its regulatory role, mainly in metabolism and ageing, thereby acting as crucial regulators of the network that controls energy homeostasis and as such determines healthspan.

The Sir2 Family of Protein Deacetylases

TL;DR: The role of NAD+, the unusual products of the deacetylation reaction, the Sir2 structure, and the Sir1 and Sir2 chemical inhibitors and activators that were recently identified are discussed.

Targeting microRNAs in cancer: rationale, strategies and challenges.

TL;DR: The role of miRNAAs in tumorigenesis is described and the rationale, the strategies and the challenges for the therapeutic targeting of miRNAs in cancer are critically discussed.

Evolutionarily conserved and nonconserved cellular localizations and functions of human SIRT proteins.

TL;DR: The notion that multiple human SIRT proteins have evolutionarily conserved and nonconserved functions at different cellular locations is supported and the lifespan of normal human cells, in contrast to that of lower eukaryotes, cannot be manipulated by increased expression of a single SIRT protein.
