Brief description Sirtuins are histone deacetylases that have been reported to play a pivotal role in energy expenditure, mitochondrial function and pathogenesis of metabolic diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and Alzheimer’s disease in particular. In this study, we will focus on the genes encoding sirtuin families, and examined the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms within genes encoding sirtuin families and functional markers for brain health.
