Description

Application

Splitomicin was used to inhibit SIRT1 in human aortic endothelial cells[1][2] and sirtuins in human breast cancer cells.[3] Mouse leukaemic monocyte macrophage cell line was treated with Splitomicin prior to cholesterol efflux studies.[4]

Biochem/physiol Actions

Sir2p (silent information regulator) and HDAC inhibitor.

Splitomicin, a derivative of β-naphthol is an inhibitor of Silent Information Regulator 2 (SIR2). It inhibits the NAD⁺-dependent deacetylase activity of Sir2 in vitro.[5] It increases the levels of cyclic AMP by inhibiting the activity of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, interferes with mobilization of intracellular Ca⁺² and ATP release. This results in inhibition of platelet aggregation that is effective in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.[6]
