Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, we assessed the Sirtuins expression level and acetylation level of its downstream target proteins in colorectal cancer cell lines after cytokine stimulation. However, these levels were not detected. In CAC mouse model, we analyzed the Sirtuins expression levels. However, the Sirtuins expression levels were not significantly different. Next, we analyzed the Sirtuins expression levels in surgically resected human CAC samples by immunohistochemistry. We found that the expression level of Sirt-1 and -7 were significantly suppressed in CAC.
