When sirtuins and NF-kappaB collide

Abstract

Both the sirtuins and certain transcription factors of the NF-kappaB/Rel family control aging-associated changes in gene expression. Kawahara et al. (2009) now show a requirement in mice for the sirtuin SIRT6 in dampening NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression, thus unveiling a potential link between inflammation, aging, and metabolism.
