Oxidative stress plays a pivotal role in chronic heart failure. SIRT1, an NAD+-dependent
histone/protein deacetylase, promotes cell survival under oxidative stress when it is
expressed in the nucleus. However, adult cardiomyocytes predominantly express SIRT1 in
the cytoplasm, and its function has not been elucidated. The purpose of this study was to
investigate the functional role of SIRT1 in the heart and the potential use of SIRT1 in therapy
for heart failure. We investigated the subcellular localization of SIRT1 in cardiomyocytes and …
