Chemical Name: 1,2-Dihydro-3H-naphtho[2,1-b]pyran-3-one
Sirt1 inhibitor
Molecular Weight:
198.22
Purity:
98% by TLC, NMR (Conforms)
Form:
White solid
CAS Number:
[5690-03-9]
Formula:
C13H10O2
Application Notes:
Initially shown to inhibit Sir2p (the yeast Sirt1 homolog) and create a conditional phenocopy of a sir2 deletion mutant in S. cerevisiae1. Cells grown in the presence of the drug have silencing defects at telomeres, silent mating-type loci and the ribosomal DNA1. Inhibits all class III HDACs (sirtuins) and alleviates gene silencing in Fragile X mental retardation syndrome2. Reverses ischemic preconditioning-induced cardioprotection in a mouse model3.
