Sirtris unveils promising, novel SIRT1 activators for treating diseases of aging
Date:11/28/2007

ing, and we look forward to advancing one of these promising new compounds into human clinical studies in the first half of 2008.

Sirtuins are a recently-discovered family of enzymes that promote the body's natural defense against disease. There are seven human sirtuins (SIRT1-7). Sirtuins are attractive drug targets because some have a specialized function in mitochondrial activity which may be therapeutically beneficial for metabolic and other diseases of aging. Sirtuin therapeutics offer the potential for a novel class of drugs that can treat diseases of aging in a new way.
