Sirtuins (SIRTs) are a family of NAD-dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs). In mammals, dysfunction of SIRTs is associated with age-related metabolic diseases, cancers, and even aging. Therefore, the detection of SIRT activity in living cells or tissues would be helpful for diagnosis of a wide range of SIRT-associated diseases. Here, we present methodology to measure SIRT activity in living cells by using our newly developed SIRT fluorescence probe, KST-F-DA.
Sirtuins (SIRTs) 是一类 NAD 依赖的组蛋白去乙酰化酶 (HDACs)。在哺乳动物中,SIRTs 的功能障碍与年龄相关的代谢疾病、癌症,甚至衰老有关。因此,在活细胞或组织中检测 SIRT 的活性将有助于诊断广泛的 SIRT 相关疾病。在这里,我们通过使用我们新开发的 SIRT 荧光探针 KST-F-DA,提出了一种在活细胞中测量 SIRT 活性的方法。
