27229617Increased expression of SIRT2 is a novel marker of cellular senescence and is dependent on wild type p53 status
27229617In the present study, we now report upregulation of SIRT2 as a specific feature associated with stress induced premature senescence but not with either quiescence or cell death
27229617Additionally, increase in SIRT2 expression was noted in different types of senescent conditions such as replicative and oncogene induced senescence using multiple cell lines
27229617Induction of SIRT2 expression during senescence was dependent on p53 status as depletion of p53 by shRNA prevented its accumulation
27229617Chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed the presence of p53 binding sites on the SIRT2 promoter suggesting its regulation by p53, which was also corroborated by the SEAP reporter assay
27229617Overexpression or knockdown of SIRT2 had no effect on stress induced premature senescence, thereby indicating that SIRT2 increase is not a cause of senescence; rather it is an effect linked to senescence-associated changes
27229617Overall, our results suggest SIRT2 as a promising marker of cellular senescence at least in cells with wild type p53 status
26948035SIRT1 and SIRT2 are localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm
26768768SIRT6 belongs to the mammalian homologs of Sir2 histone NAD(+)-dependent deacylase family
26657715Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), the mammalian ortholog of yeast longevity regulator Sir2, is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent protein deacetylase that elicits a variety of vasoprotective functions
26522327We show that SIRT1, the human homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein silent information regulator 2, which is involved in cellular senescence and possibly the response to inflammation, forms a stable complex with HMGB1 in murine macrophage RAW264
26414199The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent protein deacetylase silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) regulates cellular lifespan in several organisms
26414199This study shows that the expression patterns of HDAC4 and Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1; the mammalian homolog of Sir2) are positively correlated during cellular senescence
25924011Resveratrol Induced Premature Senescence Is Associated with DNA Damage Mediated SIRT1 and SIRT2 Down-Regulation
25924011Current study was undertaken to investigate the effects of resveratrol in human primary dermal fibroblasts (BJ) and to clarify the role of sirtuin family members in particular SIRT1 and SIRT2 that are known to be involved in cellular stress responses and cell cycle, respectively
25924011Interestingly, at concentrations where resveratrol induced premature senescence we show a significant decrease in SIRT1 and SIRT2 levels by Western Blot and quantitative RT-PCR analysis
25924011Conversely inhibition of SIRT1 and SIRT2 via siRNA or sirtinol treatment also induced senescence in BJ fibroblasts associated with increased SA-beta-gal activity, gamma-H2AX phosphorylation and p53, p21CIP1 and p16INK4A levels
25924011In conclusion our data reveal that resveratrol induced premature senescence is associated with SIRT1 and SIRT2 down regulation in human dermal fibroblasts
24997552Growth phase-dependent roles of Sir2 in oxidative stress resistance and chronological lifespan in yeast
24997552Silent Information Regulator 2 (Sir2), a conserved NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase, has been implicated as one of the key factors in regulating stress response and longevity
24997552Here, we report that the role of Sir2 in oxidative stress resistance and chronological lifespan is dependent on growth phase in yeast
24997552Similarly, the expression of antioxidant genes, which are essential to cope with oxidative stress, was regulated by Sir2 in a growth phase-dependent manner
24997552Collectively, our findings highlight the importance of the metabolic state of the cell in determining whether Sir2 can protect against or accelerate cellular aging of yeast
24697269In an effort to identify small molecule inhibitors of sirtuins for potential use as chemotherapeutics as well as tools to modulate sirtuin activity, we previously identified a nonselective sirtuin inhibitor called cambinol (IC50 approximately 50 muM for SIRT1 and SIRT2) with in vitro and in vivo antilymphoma activity
246972694-fold selectivity for SIRT2, and 8 with 6
246972693-fold selectivity for SIRT3 versus SIRT1 and SIRT2, respectively
24697269In vitro cytotoxicity studies with these compounds as well as EX527, a potent and selective SIRT1 inhibitor, suggest that antilymphoma activity of this compound class may be predominantly due to SIRT2 inhibition
24373458A common thread in many yeast replicative aging studies is the involvement of the ribosomal DNA gene repeats (rDNA), beginning with the discovery that the rDNA silencing gene, SIR2, regulates life span
24025678Moreover, deficiencies in the H2B ubiquitylase complex Rad6/Bre1 as well as the deubiquitylase Ubp10 reduced the lifespan by altering both H3K4 and H3K79 methylation and Sir2 recruitment
24025678Thus, these results show that low levels of H2B ubiquitylation are a prerequisite for a normal lifespan and the trans-tail regulation of histone modifications regulates age-associated Sir2 recruitment through telomeric silencing
23997094Similarly, sirtuin expression was relatively well-preserved in aorta from both genotypes, whereas expression of SIRT1, SIRT2, SIRT3, SIRT4, and SIRT6 were significantly reduced in the aortic valve
23993840The highly repetitive rDNA exhibits genomic instability, and the antiaging histone deacetylase gene SIR2 regulates this instability
23993840We previously proposed that SIR2 governs lifespan by repressing rDNA noncoding transcription and rDNA instability, but the extent to which lifespan is affected by SIR2 acting at the rDNA versus other genomic regions, and the relationship between rDNA noncoding transcription/rDNA stability and lifespan have remained controversial
23993840Here, we show that repression of noncoding transcription extends lifespan and makes SIR2 dispensable for lifespan extension
23993840These results indicate that Sir2 maintains lifespan through repression of E-pro noncoding transcription in the rDNA cluster, rather than pleiotropically at other loci
23742046Among many signalling mechanisms involved in altering longevity and aging, the insulin/IGF-1 pathway and the Sir2 deacetylase are highly significant
23592245It was known that, similar to the yeast Sir2 protein, human SIRT6 deacetylates histones and regulates DNA stability and repair; however, new mechanistic insights can be derived from the discovery of the highly substrate-specific histone deacetylase activity of SIRT6
23494737Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) is one of the seven mammalian sirtuins, which are homologs of the yeast Sir2 gene
22932127SIRT2, an NAD-dependent class III histone deacetylase, contributes to H4-K16Ac deacetylation and DNA compaction in human fibroblast cell lines that assemble striking senescence-associated heterochromatin foci (SAHFs)
22783411Mammalian SIRT1, as the closest homolog of the yeast Sir2, was extensively involved in regulating cell processes, including cell senescence, aging and neuronal protection, as well as having anti-apoptotic properties
21497775Silent information regulator 2 (Sir2/Sirt1), a member of the sirtuin family of class III histone deacetylases, has been implicated extensively in lifespan extension and is a prominent drug target in antiaging medicine
21415463The implication of Sir2 in replicative aging and senescence in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
21415463In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) modulates cellular senescence
21415463Moreover, Sir2 plays a crucial role in promoting ribosomal DNA (rDNA) stability and longevity under TOR inhibition
21415463Here we review the implication of rDNA stabilizers in longevity, discuss how Sir2 stabilizes rDNA under TOR inhibition and speculate on the link between sumoylation and Sir2-related pro-aging pathways
21130086Lifespan extension evoked by Sir2 protein in lower organisms has attracted a large amount of interests in the last decade
20829644Here, we focus on the sirtuins, the mammalian homologs of the yeast life-span-extending molecule, Sir2
20829644Among the sirtuin family proteins in mammals, the one most similar to yeast Sir2 is SIRT1, which is involved in multiple pathways, including the repair of DNA double-strand breaks
20352263The increased sensitivity to BrdU caused by a defect in MPT5 was suppressed by a mutation in SIR2, SIR3, or SIR4, which is involved in chromatin silencing and transcriptional repression
20078953As the most homologic homologue of silent information regulator 2 of yeast, Sirt1 gene is extensively expressed in mature tissues, and is rich in early embryo and reproductive cells
19875981Sas2 normally prevents the Sir2/3/4 heterochromatin complex from leaving the telomere and spreading to internal euchromatic loci
19736527Interplay between histone deacetylase SIR-2, linker histone H1 and histone methyltransferases in heterochromatin formation
19736527The NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase SIR-2 and the H1 linker histone are intriguing chromatin elements that are connected to chromatin regulation and cell viability in the single cellular eukaryotic organism yeast
19736527However, it remains an open question how SIR-2 and H1 mediate heterochromatin formation in simple multi-cellular organisms such as C
19736527Recently we have identified SIR-2
19736527In addition we show that SIR-2
19736527Here we discuss the interplay between SIR-2, H1 histone and histone methyltransferases in modulation of chromatin structure in further detail
19286634In yeast, CR extends the lifespan by increasing the activity of silencing information regulator 2 (Sir2), an NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase
19286634SIRT1, a mammalian homolog of Sir2, has been reported to downregulate p53 activity and thereby prolong the lifespan of cells
19067655We have tested this hypothesis in a cohort of preimplantation human renal allograft biopsies ( n = 75) that have been assayed by real-time polymerase chain reaction for the expression of known markers of cellular damage and biological aging, including CDKN2A, CDKN1A, SIRT2 and POT1
18691183Deletion of the SIR2 gene causes a decrease of lifespan, while insertion of an extra copy of SIR2 extends lifespan, indicating that like in S
18691183Interestingly, Sir2 deletion does not result in the accumulation of extra-chromosomal rDNA molecules, but influences the retention of oxidized proteins in mother cells, suggesting that the extra-chromosomal rDNA molecules may not be associated with cellular aging in C
18638538Whereas other laboratories have proposed that sirtuins (Sir2 and its homologs), a family of conserved proteins which are NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylases, can extend longevity in various model organisms, we propose that one sirtuin, i
18638538In Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast), the deletion of Sir2 increases DNA damage but in combination with longevity mutations in principal intracellular signal transduction mediators, or in combination with calorie restriction it causes a further increase in the chronological lifespan as well as an increase in the stress resistance and a major reduction in age-dependent genomic instability
18638538Our recent results also provide evidence for a role of the mammalian Sir2 ortholog SirT1 in the activation of a highly conserved neuronal pathway and in the sensitization of neurons to oxidative damage
18337721The Sir2 deacetylase regulates chromatin silencing and lifespan in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
18320031Sir2, a NAD-dependent deacetylase, modulates lifespan in yeasts, worms and flies
18320031The SIRT1, mammalian homologue of Sir2, regulates signaling for favoring survival in stress
18203716Sir2, an NAD-dependent histone deacetylase, has been proven to extend life span in yeast and Caenorhabditis elegans
18203716Mammalian Sir2 (SIRT1) has also been found to regulate premature cellular senescence induced by the tumor suppressors PML and p53
18193082While investigating the transcriptional repression activities of RBP1, we observed a genetic link between RBP1 and SIR2
18193082Further work uncovered an interaction between RBP1 family proteins and the mammalian homologue of SIR2, SIRT1
17916362Yeast Sir2 plays critical roles in gene silencing, stress resistance and longevity
17916362Mammalian Sirt1 NAD(+)-dependent protein deacetylase, the closest homolog of Sir2, regulates cell cycle, cellular senescence, apoptosis and metabolism, by functional interactions with a number of biological molecules such as p53
17691205SIRT7 are mammalian versions of the yeast SIR2 gene
17595514It has been reported that p53 acetylation, which promotes cellular senescence, can be regulated by the NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase SIRT1, the human homolog of yeast Sir2, a protein that modulates lifespan
17202845All the other DSB repair proteins tested, Sir2, TRF1 and Ku80, did not show any significant differences upon aging
16940753We found that aging in deltaNp63alpha transgenic mice and other mouse models correlated with levels of Sirt1, a mammalian SIR2 orthologue thought to extend the lifespan in lower species
16546327Among many genes thus far reported contributing to aging process, the yeast silent information regulator-2 (SIR2) and its homologues in other species, which belong to the family of type III histone and protein deacetylases, have been the subject of active discussion
16546327The demonstrated roles of SIRT1, the mammalian counterpart of the yeast SIR2, reveal that SIRT1 regulates important cellular processes including anti-apoptosis, neuronal protection, cellular senescence, aging and longevity
16516887Relocalization occurs concomitantly with interaction with a subset of nuclear proteins, including PCNA, p53 and several regulators of acetylation such as the p300/CBP and PCAF histone acetyltransferases (HATs), as well as the histone deacetylases HDAC1 and hSir2
15207474We also demonstrate that the model can be used to gain insight into how an extra copy of the Sir2 gene might extend lifespan and we show how the model makes novel, testable predictions about patterns of age-specific mortality in yeast populations
15063846A link between transcription and intermediary metabolism: a role for Sir2 in the control of acetyl-coenzyme A synthetase
15063846The silent information regulator protein (Sir2) and its homologs (collectively known as sirtuins) are NAD+-dependent deacetylase enzymes involved in chromosome stability, gene silencing and cell aging in eukaryotes and archaea
14522900Both ING1 and p53 were able to suppress AFP transcription and cause p21 induction; hSIR2, a negative regulator of the p53 protein, showed the opposite effects on the AFP promoter and, like HDAC1, repressed p21 promoter activity
14522900In addition, we found that p33(ING1b) physically interacts with hSIR2, reverses its ability to induce the AFP promoter, and induces acetylation of p53 residues at Lys(373) and/or Lys(382)
14522900The first is by binding to the AT-motif and excluding HNF1 binding while possibly targeting HAT activity to promoter regions, and the second is by increasing the levels of active, acetylated p53 via binding and inhibiting the ability of hSIR2 to deacetylate p53 protein
12960381Developmental defects and p53 hyperacetylation in Sir2 homolog (SIRT1)-deficient mice
12960381SIRT1 is a mammalian homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromatin silencing factor Sir2
12493915Activation of the acetylated enzyme requires the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent protein deacetylase activity of the CobB Sir2 protein from S
12493915These findings extend our knowledge of the roles of Sir2 proteins in gene silencing, chromosome stability, and cell aging and imply that lysine acetylation is a common regulatory mechanism in eukaryotes and prokaryotes
12220851Human Sir2 and the 'silencing' of p53 activity
12220851Members of the evolutionarily conserved silent information regulator 2 (Sir2) protein family are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+))-dependent histone deacetylases
12220851In yeast, the founding Sir2 protein is known to function in transcriptional silencing processes through the deacetylation of histones H3 and H4, thus setting up a repressive chromatin structure
12220851Yeast and Caenorhabditis elegans Sir2 are also involved in regulating the life span of these organisms
12220851However, several recent studies have now determined a remarkable function for the human SIRT1 protein, which is the closest human homolog of yeast Sir2
12006491Human SIR2 deacetylates p53 and antagonizes PML/p53-induced cellular senescence
12006491Sir2 is a conserved protein and was recently shown to regulate lifespan extension both in budding yeast and worms
12006491Here, we show that SIRT1, the human Sir2 homolog, is recruited to the promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) nuclear bodies of mammalian cells upon overexpression of either PML or oncogenic Ras (Ha-rasV12)
11672523Expression of wild-type hSir2 in human cells reduces the transcriptional activity of p53
11672523In contrast, expression of a catalytically inactive hSir2 protein potentiates p53-dependent apoptosis and radiosensitivity
11268038Sound silencing: the Sir2 protein and cellular senescence
