The deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ), especially aggregation-prone Aβ<sub>42</sub>, is considered to be an early event preceding neurodegeneration in AD. Sirtuins (SIRT1-7 in mammals) are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent lysine deacetylases/deacylases, and several sirtuins play important roles in AD. However, the involvement of SIRT7 in AD pathogene ...[more]
