Emerging role of sirtuins on tumorigenesis: possible link between aging and cancer
Aging is the strongest risk factor for cancer development,suggesting that molecular crosstalks between aging andtumorigenesis exist in many cellular pathways. Recently,Sirtuins (Sirt1-7), the mammalian homologues of aging-relatedsir2α in yeast, have been shown to modulate several majorcellular pathw...

description | Aging is the strongest risk factor for cancer development,suggesting that molecular crosstalks between aging andtumorigenesis exist in many cellular pathways. Recently,Sirtuins (Sirt1-7), the mammalian homologues of aging-relatedsir2α in yeast, have been shown to modulate several majorcellular pathways, such as DNA repair, inflammation,metabolism, cell death, and proliferation in response todiverse stresses, and may serve as a possible molecular linkbetween aging and tumorignenesis. In addition, growingevidence suggests that sirtuins are directly implicated in thedevelopment of cancer, and they can act as either a tumorsuppressor or promoter, depending on the cellular context andtumor types. While the functions of Sirt1 in tumorigenesishave been reported and reviewed in many studies, theconnection between sirtuins 2-7 and the development ofcancer is less established. Thus, this review will present therecent updates on the emerging roles of Sirt2-7 members incarcinogenesis. [BMB Reports 2013; 46(9): 429-438] |
