SirReal2 is primarily utilized in biochemical research, particularly in the study of sirtuins, a class of proteins that play a critical role in regulating cellular processes such as aging, transcription, apoptosis, and inflammation. It functions as a potent and selective inhibitor of sirtuin 2 (SIRT2), making it a valuable tool for investigating the biological functions and therapeutic potential of SIRT2 in various diseases. Researchers employ SirReal2 to explore its effects on cancer cell proliferation, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic diseases, as SIRT2 inhibition has shown promise in modulating these conditions. Additionally, it is used to study the role of SIRT2 in epigenetic regulation and its impact on cellular pathways, aiding in the development of targeted therapies.
