Higher sirt1 is associated with a better body composition in master sprinters and untrained peers

Sirt1 is an enzyme involved in several anti-aging pathways. Associations between Sirt1, age, and body fat (BF) were assessed in master sprinters (MS; n =  35 ; 50.25 ±5.93 yr.), untrained young non-athletes (UY; n =  32 ; 23.78 ±3.98 yr.), and untrained middle-aged (UMA; n =  24 ; 47.29 ±8.04 yr.)....

Description
Summary:Sirt1 is an enzyme involved in several anti-aging pathways. Associations between Sirt1, age, and body fat (BF) were assessed in master sprinters (MS; n =  35 ; 50.25 ±5.93 yr.), untrained young non-athletes (UY; n =  32 ; 23.78 ±3.98 yr.), and untrained middle-aged (UMA; n =  24 ; 47.29 ±8.04 yr.). BF was assessed using a skinfold protocol, and Sirt1 was measured in plasma by using commercial kits. Sirt1 of MS (17.18 ±4.77 ng/mL) was higher than UMA (6.36 ±2.29 ng/mL; p
