lüll SIRT1, is it a tumor promoter or tumor suppressor?Deng CXInt J Biol Sci 2009[]; 5 (2): 147-52SIRT1 has been considered as a tumor promoter because of its increased expression in some types of cancers and its role in inactivating proteins that are involved in tumor suppression and DNA damage repair. However, recent studies demonstrated that SIRT1 levels are reduced in some other types of cancers, and that SIRT1 deficiency results in genetic instability and tumorigenesis, while overexpression of SIRT1 attenuates cancer formation in mice heterozygous for tumor suppressor p53 or APC. Here, I review these recent findings and discuss the possibility that activation of SIRT1 both extends lifespan and inhibits cancer formation.|Animals[MESH]|DNA Damage/genetics/physiology[MESH]|DNA Repair/genetics/physiology[MESH]|Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic/genetics/physiology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Models, Biological[MESH]|Sirtuins/genetics/metabolism/*physiology[MESH] |
