Ageing (British) or aging (American) is the
accumulation of changes in a person over
time
Age is measured chronologically, and a
person's birthday is often an important
event. However the term "ageing" is
somewhat ambiguous.
Distinctions may be made between
" universal ageing" (age changes that all people
share)
" probabilistic ageing" (age changes that may
happen to some)
" social ageing" (cultural age-expectations of how
people should act as they grow older)
" biological ageing" (an organism's physical state
as it ages)

Sirtuins (SIRT17) are NAD
+
-dependent
deacylases that promote homeostasis.
SIRT1 activation shows promise for the
treatment of aging and age-related diseases.
Natural and synthetic SIRT1 activators
(STACs) have been discovered.
There is a common SIRT1 activation
mechanism mediated by an N-terminal
domain.
Clinical trials indicate that STACs are
efficacious but questions remain.
New studies indicate that both natural and
synthetic sirtuin activating compounds
(STACs) work via a common allosteric
mechanism to stimulate sirtuin activity,
thereby conferring broad health benefits in
rodents, primates, and possibly humans.

of aging and age-related diseases
