Biological Activity
SRT 2104 is a brain-permeable activator of SIRT1, used for the research of type 2 diabetes mellitus and Huntington's disease.
In Vitro
SRT 2104 (3 μM) reduces p65/RelA acetylation levels in C2C12 cells[1].
In Vivo
SRT2104 (100 mg/kg, p.o.) improves whole-body physiology and extends lifespan in mice fed a standard diet. SRT2104 increases mitochondrial content and suppresses the inflammatory response in SD-fed mice. SRT2104 also changes the gene expression profile differently in liver and muscle. Short-term SRT2104 preserves muscle and bone mass[1]. 0.5% SRT2104 diet penetrates the blood-brain barrier, attenuates brain atrophy, improves motor function, and extends survival in a mouse model of Huntington's disease[2].
