    GlossarySirtuin 1

    protein involved in aging, stress resistance, and hair growth

    Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in cellular regulation, including aging, inflammation, and stress resistance. It functions as a deacetylase, removing acetyl groups from proteins, which can affect their activity and stability. SIRT1 is also involved in metabolic processes and has been linked to the regulation of hair growth and the prevention of hair loss, making it a significant focus in studies related to alopecia and other hair disorders.
