Mammalian sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent histone deacetylase (HDAC) with roles in cell cycle progression and tumorigenesis. AGK2 is a cell-permeable, selective inhibitor of SIRT2 (IC50 = 3.5 μM) that minimally affects either SIRT1 or SIRT3 at 10-fold higher levels.{17495} It rescues dopamine neurons from α-synuclein toxicity in both in vitro and in vivo Parkinson’s disease models, mimicking the effect of siRNA-mediated blockade of SIRT2 expression.{17495} AGK2 may be a useful tool for studying the roles of SIRT2 in neurodegeneration and aging, as well as cell cycle progression and tumorigenesis.
