Abstract
AbstractAging is a process of time‐associated depletion in the physiological functions, essential for the survival and reproducibility of living beings. Some age‐related disorders can be successfully controlled with some biomedical techniques or pharmaceutical approaches. There are some precise remedies that demonstrate conspicuous promise in the preclinical and clinical setup of extending lifespan or enhancing health by altering natural senescence. The sirtuin family of proteins is one of the most favorable targets for antiaging strategies. Sirtuins were initially identified as transcription repressors in yeast, but today they are known to exist in bacteria and eukaryotes, as well as humans. The SIRT (1–7) family of proteins in humans is made up of seven members, each of which has either mono‐ADP ribosyl transferase or deacetylase activity. Researchers suggest that sirtuins are essential for cell metabolism and play a major role in how cells react to various stimuli, such as oxidative or genotoxic stress. A healthy lifestyle, which includes exercise and a balanced diet, has been demonstrated to impact health span by adjusting the levels of sirtuins, suggesting the involvement of sirtuins in extending human longevity. The hunt for sirtuin activators is among the most extensive and comprehensive research subjects in the present scenario. Some optimism has been generated to investigate antiaging therapies by natural compounds, such as curcumin and others. This review article highlights the role of sirtuins in native senescence and their primordial roles in the progression of several life‐threatening diseases. Further, it also provides recent information on the sirtuin activators and inhibitors and their therapeutic benefits.
