SIRT1, Sirtuin 1 protein: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
SIRT1 (Sirtuin 1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including metabolism, stress resistance, and longevity. In the context of cancer, SIRT1 has been found to have both tumor-suppressing and tumor-promoting functions, depending on the type of cancer and the cellular context.
Expression Promotes: Breast, Prostate, Colorectal Cancer.
Expression Suppresses: Leukemia, Liver Cancers.
-aging process is associated with the inactivation of the silent information regulator T1 (SIRT1) protein.
