“5′ AMP-activated protein kinase or AMPK or 5′ adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase is an enzyme (EC 2.7.11.31) that plays a role in cellular energy homeostasis, largely […]
SIRT1 stands for sirtuin (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) 1 (S. cerevisiae), referring to the fact that its sirtuinhomolog (biological equivalent across species) in […]
FOXO3 belongs to the O subclass of the forkhead family of transcription factorswhich are characterized by a distinct fork head DNA-binding domain. There are three other […]
Regulation of longevity by FGF21: Interaction between energy metabolism and stress responses. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a hormone-like member of FGF family which controls […]
Klotho is a transmembrane protein that, in addition to other effects, provides some control over the sensitivity of the organism to insulin and appears to be […]
Crucial role of p53-dependent cellular senescence in suppression of Pten-deficient tumorigenesis Human SIR2 deacetylates p53 and antagonizes PML/p53‐induced cellular senescence Senescence and tumour clearance is triggered […]
Hsp90 (heat shock protein 90) is a chaperone protein that assists other proteins to fold properly, stabilizes proteins against heat stress, and aids in protein degradation. It also stabilizes a number of proteins […]
A branching process model of telomere shortening A continuous correlation between oxidative stress and telomere shortening in fibroblasts A Critical Role for Pin2/TRF1 in ATM-dependent Regulation […]
Premature Senescence ”Senescence is more than merely a cell division clock that regulates the proliferative lifespan of normal cells. “Premature” senescence is an active cytostaticprogram that […]
