Extranuclear Localization of SIRT1 and PGC-1α: An Insight into Possible Roles in Diseases Associated with Mitochondrial Dysfunction
10 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
SIRT1 and PGC-1α are two nutrient sensing master regulators of cellular metabolism and their upregulation is often linked to increased lifespan. SIRT1 and PGC-1α modulate the expression of a set of nuclear genes controlling many metabolic pathways. In recent years mounting evidence has indicated the implication of these proteins in several mitochondrial diseases including neurodegenerative disorders, myopathies...
