Hence, to further investigate the effect of Ursolic Acid (UA) endorses previous studies on skeletal muscle rejuvenation, we tested whether UA alters two prominent anti-aging biomarkers such as SIRT1 and SIRT6 in skeletal muscle. UA is a triterpenoid compound widely found in natural plants and fruits, with known effects on skeletal muscle. To conduct this experiment, UA dissolved in Corn Oil (200mg/ml) was administrated (200mg/kg IP injection) twice daily for 7 days to male aged-mice C57BL/6. Then, mice skeletal muscle tissues were isolated and proteins were examined through immunofluorescence microscopy. Our findings clearly illustrated that UA enhances SIRT1 (~3.5 folds) and SIRT6 (~4 folds) expression levels, p UR - https://www.bmmj.org/article_38182.html L1 - https://www.bmmj.org/article_38182_1f83dec7e063477e458bc5e43258ffac.pdf ER -
