Salvatori L, Magno S, Ceccarini G, Tozzi R, Contini S, Pelosini C, et al.
Int J Mol Sci . 2024 May; 25(9). PMID: 38732001
Lipodystrophies (LDs) are rare, complex disorders of the adipose tissue characterized by selective fat loss, altered adipokine profile and metabolic impairment. Sirtuins (SIRTs) are class III NAD-dependent histone deacetylases linked...

Camajani E, Persichetti A, Watanabe M, Contini S, Vari M, Di Bernardo S, et al.
Nutrients . 2022 May; 14(9). PMID: 35565851
In sarcopenic obese subjects it is essential to reduce body weight and preserve lean mass, in order to avoid a worsening of muscle function. Several studies have shown that leucine...

Tozzi R, Masi D, Cipriani F, Contini S, Gangitano E, Spoltore M, et al.
Nutrients . 2022 Mar; 14(5). PMID: 35267956
Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) and sclerostin play important roles in adipose tissue and bone metabolism. We evaluated the circulating SIRT1 and sclerostin relationship with mass and quality of bone while considering the...
4.
Mariani S, Di Giorgio M, Rossi E, Tozzi R, Contini S, Bauleo L, et al.
Nutrients . 2020 Nov; 12(11). PMID: 33202604
Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) is a sensor of cell energy availability, and with leptin and adiponectin, it regulates metabolic homeostasis. Widely studied in tissues, SIRT1 is under evaluation as a plasmatic...

Watanabe M, Risi R, Camajani E, Contini S, Persichetti A, Tuccinardi D, et al.
Nutrients . 2020 Jul; 12(7). PMID: 32708435
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major cause of liver disease. Very low-calorie ketogenic diets (VLCKD) represent a feasible treatment as they induce profound weight loss and insulin...

Basciani S, Camajani E, Contini S, Persichetti A, Risi R, Bertoldi L, et al.
J Clin Endocrinol Metab . 2020 Jun; 105(9). PMID: 32484877
Context: We compared the efficacy, safety, and effect of 45-day isocaloric very-low-calorie ketogenic diets (VLCKDs) incorporating whey, vegetable, or animal protein on the microbiota in patients with obesity and insulin...

Mariani S, di Giorgio M, Martini P, Persichetti A, Barbaro G, Basciani S, et al.
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) . 2018 Aug; 9:449. PMID: 30131769
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are NAD+-dependent deacetylases, cellular sensors to detect energy availability, and modulate metabolic processes. SIRT1, the most studied family member, influences a number of tissues including adipose tissue. Expression...

Mariani S, Fiore D, Basciani S, Persichetti A, Contini S, Lubrano C, et al.
Endocrine . 2014 Nov; 49(3):711-6. PMID: 25358448
Sirtuins (SIRTs) are master metabolic regulators with protective roles against obesity and obesity-associated metabolic disorders, including non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and type-2 diabetes. We aimed to ascertain whether there...

Basciani S, Costantini D, Contini S, Persichetti A, Watanabe M, Mariani S, et al.
Endocrine . 2014 Jul; 48(3):863-70. PMID: 25063307
To investigate safety, compliance, and efficacy, on weight loss and cardiovascular risk factors of a multiphasic dietary intervention based on meal replacements, including a period of very low calorie diet...
