Unravelling the role of SIRT2 in Alzheimer’s disease

Sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) has been proposed to have a central role on ageing, inflammation, and age-related pathologies such as AD. Recent studies propose the pharmacological inhibition of SIRT2 as a therapeutic strategy for several neurodegenerative diseases; nevertheless, its specific role is not well und...
