 What they say: Introduction: 

A recent study from the Department of Genetics, Paul F. Glenn Laboratories for the Biological Mechanisms of Aging Harvard Medical School, Boston,USA; and Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, The University of New South Wales, Australia shows that Sirtuin-2 induces the checkpoint kinase BubR1 to increase lifespan. This study was published, in the 1 July  2014 issue of the journal  “EMBO”, by Prof Sinclair, North BJ, and others.


What we say: 

On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports that: Branched-chain amino acids-based Lifespan extension therapy:  Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA-Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine) increase life span via up-regulation of its target gene BubR1


From research findings to Therapeutic Opportunity: 

This study suggests, for the first time, that Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA-Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine)by increasing the expression of their target genes, they may: (a) increase the expression of BuBR1; (b) regulate the expression of p70 S6 Kinase; and (c) regulate the expression of a number of longevity-promoting molecules (Fig. 1).

Figure 2. The chemical structure of Branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). BCAA functions as a longevity-promoter through induction of BuBR1.

Thereby, it may: (1) increase insulin sensitivity; (2) attenuate cognitive impairment; (3) delay diseases of aging; (4) slow down cardiac aging; (5) promote resistance to bone, immune and motor dysfunction; (6) promote tissue rejuvenation; and (7) prolong median life span. Thus, pharmacological formulations encompassing “branched-chain amino acids (BCAA-Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine)  or their analogues, either alone or in combination with other drugs, may be used to extend the lifespan of an individual (fig. 2).
