1 The isoflavone derivatives showed differential effects on the activation and expression of sirtuin (SIRT)1, a deacetylase and activator of PGC-1alpha. Isoflavones sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
2 We have identified a series of substituted isoflavones that produce mitochondrial biogenesis through PGC1alpha and increased SIRT1 activity and/or expression, independently of the estrogen receptor. Isoflavones sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
3 Furthermore, different structural components are responsible for the activities of isoflavones: the hydroxyl group at position 7 is required SIRT1 activation, a hydroxyl group at position 5 blocks SIRT1 activation, and the loss of the phenyl ring at position 3 or the 4"-hydroxy or -methoxy substituent blocks increased SIRT1 expression. Isoflavones sirtuin 1 Homo sapiens
