COMPOSITION CONTAINING INDUCER OF SIRT1 EXPRESSION FOR PREVENTING OR TREATING SEPSIS OR SEPTIC SHOCK

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition containing an inducer of SIRT1 (silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog) expression for preventing or treating sepsis or septic shock. The inducer of SIRT1 expression can remarkably reduce the mortality caused by sepsis or septic shock by reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines and increasing anti-inflammatory cytokines. Therefore, the inducer of SIRT1 expression is useful for preventing or treating sepsis or septic shock.
