SIRT6 Study

Targeted modulation of SIRT6 pathways to slow aspects of biological ageing 

Study Overview

The SIRT6 study explores how modulating SIRT6 — a key enzyme that regulates DNA repair, metabolic balance, and longevity — can influence biological ageing and improve overall health in adults. 


Participants attend four visits over six months (Screening, Month 0, Month 3, Month 6). Each visit includes detailed assessments of biological age, metabolic health, body composition, cognition, skin and vascular condition, and quality of life. 
The aim is to determine whether targeted activation of SIRT6 pathways can meaningfully reduce biological age and enhance healthspan-related markers. 


The study is conducted at the Academy for Healthy Longevity, National University of Singapore (NUS) under the supervision of Prof. Andrea B. Maier. It is designed to produce clinical-grade, reproducible evidence to guide future precision-longevity interventions.
