August 2020 in “Stem Cell Research & Therapy” In this study, SIRT1-modified human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells reduced peritoneal fibrosis in a rodent model, suggesting potential as a treatment strategy for peritoneal dialysis-induced damage.
13 citations
,
May 2023 in “Journal of Dermatological Science” This research found that reduced expression of SIRT1 in human scalp tissue may contribute to alopecia areata development by inducing immune-inflammatory responses in hair follicle cells, suggesting that SIRT1 plays a regulatory role in hair follicle immunity.
12 citations
,
August 2022 in “Stem cell reviews and reports” This study found that PBX1 overexpression reduces hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cell senescence and apoptosis by interacting with SIRT1 and PARP1, highlighting a potential mechanism for addressing aging-related diseases.
