Description

Sirtuin Biology in Medicine: Targeting New Avenues of Care in Development, Aging, and Disease provides a fascinating and in-depth analysis of sirtuins in the body during normal physiology as well during disease highlighting the targeting of sirtuin-controlled pathways for the development of innovative, efficacious, and safe therapeutic strategies for multiple disorders in the body that ultimately can affect lifespan extension. Sirtuins are expressed throughout the body, have broad biological effects, and can significantly impact both cellular survival and longevity during acute and long-term illnesses. These histone deacetylases play an intricate role in the pathology, progression, and treatment of several disease entities ranging from neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular disease, immune system dysfunction, reproductive dysfunction, endocrine disorders, gastrointestinal disease, drug dependency, and aging-related disorders. Implementing a translational medicine format, this unique reference highlights novel signaling pathways for sirtuins that promote stem cell proliferation, enhance cellular protection, modulate pathways of apoptosis and autophagy, and extend life span. Each chapter is presented with insightful detail that will be of interest and a comprehensive resource to audiences that include scientists, physicians, pharmaceutical industry experts, nutritionists, and students.

Key Features

  • Chapters are authored by internationally recognized experts who discuss the broad role of sirtuins in health and disease
  • Details the basic and clinical role of sirtuins for the development of new clinical treatments
  • Summarizes the multidiscipline views and publications for the compelling discipline of sirtuins by covering systems throughout the body
  • Serves as an important resource for a broad audience of healthcare providers, scientists, drug developers, and students in both clinical and research settings

Readership

Researchers (endocrinologists, cell biologists, molecular biologists, pharmacologists, vascular biologists, neuroscientists, etc.), Physicians (all disciplines including internal medicine, oncologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, cardiologists, etc.), pharmaceutical industry experts
