Abstract

Aging is a complicated degenerative process that has been thoroughly researched in a variety of taxa, including mammals, worms, yeast, and flies. One important controller of organismal lifetime is the conserved deacetylase protein known as silencing information regulator 2 (SIR2). It has been demonstrated that overexpressing SIR2 lengthens the life span in worms, flies, and yeast, demonstrating its function in enhancing longevity. SIRT3 is a member of the sirtuin protein family, identified as a major regulator of longevity and aging. Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), a possible mitochondrial tumor suppressor, has been explicitly linked to the control of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, the Warburg effect, and carcinogenesis. SIRT3 plays a significant part in neurodegenerative illnesses such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease by decreasing the oxidative stress in mitochondria and reducing the ROS levels. Furthermore, SIRT3 has been linked to metabolic and cardiovascular disorders, indicating its wider role in the pathophysiology of disease and possible therapeutic applications.
