Abstract

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation contributes to premature skin aging, and sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) plays key roles in aging, genomic stability, inflammation, and metabolism. However, the specific role of SIRT6 in UV-induced photoaging remains unclear.

Research summary

Ultraviolet-B irradiation induces miR-663a and miR-4706, which accelerate photoaging by targeting Sirtuin 6 in human dermal fibroblasts. This research addresses the mechanisms of photoaging, which is a significant aspect of the aging process and contributes to our understanding of longevity.
