Sirtuins at the crossroads of stemness, aging, and cancer
10 Oct 2017
Abstract excerpt
Sirtuins are stress-responsive proteins that direct various post-translational modifications (PTMs) and as a result, are considered to be master regulators of several cellular processes. They are known to both extend lifespan and regulate spontaneous tumor development.
