Abstract
Initial studies linking Sirtuins to longevity in yeast initiated what is now a rich vein of aging research that is full of promise and fraught with controversy. Missing was a demonstration that enhanced Sirtuin expression extends lifespan in mammals. Now Kanfi et al. provide the evidence but with an interesting plot twist - the lesser known SIRT6 is the longevity factor.Entities:
