<scp>SIRT2</scp> and <scp>NAD</scp>⁺ Boosting Broadly Suppress Aging‐Associated Inflammation

Aging leads to chronic inflammation that is linked to aging-associated conditions and diseases. Multiple immune pathways become activated during aging, posing a challenge to effectively reduce aging-associated inflammation. SIRT2, an NAD⁺-dependent deacetylase, suppresses several immune pathways that become activated during aging and may represent an attractive target to broadly dampen aging-associated inflammation. Here, we show that SIRT2 deficiency leads to increased inflammation governed by multiple immune pathways and tissue function decline at an old age, while NAD⁺ boosting with 78c suppresses aging-associated inflammation and improves tissue function. These findings highlight SIRT2 as a master regulator of aging-associated inflammation and support NAD⁺ boosting as an effective strategy to counteract aging-associated inflammation and tissue function decline.
