Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the autosomal recessive disorder most recurrent in Caucasian populations. To combat this disease, many life-prolonging therapies are required and deeply investigated, including the development of the so-called cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators, such as correctors and potentiators....

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the autosomal recessive disorder most recurrent in Caucasian populations. Different mutations involving the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator protein (CFTR) gene, which encodes the CFTR channel, are involved in CF. A number of life-prolonging therapies have been conceived and deeply investigated to combat this...

Abstract: Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) is an NAD+-dependent deacetylase regulating important functions: modulators of its enzymatic activity have been considered as possible therapeutic agents. Besides the deacetylase activity, SIRT6 also has NAD+-dependent deacylase activity, whereby it regulates the secretion of cytokines and proteins. We identified...
