Nuclear SIRT1 activity, but not protein content, regulates mitochondrial biogenesis in rat and human skeletal muscle

Abstract

Silent mating type information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1)-mediated peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) deacetylation is potentially key for activating mitochondrial biogenesis. Yet, at the whole muscle level, SIRT1 is not associated with mitochondrial biogenesis (Gurd, BJ, Yoshida Y, Lally J, Holloway GP, Bonen A. J Physiol 587: 1817-1828, 2009). Therefore, we examined nuclear SIRT1 protein and activity …
