* '''Resveratrol Analogs:''' Scientists have developed synthetic analogs of resveratrol that are more potent sirtuin activators. These compounds are being investigated for their potential in extending lifespan and improving health. | * '''Resveratrol Analogs:''' Scientists have developed synthetic analogs of resveratrol that are more potent sirtuin activators.

* '''Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+):''' NAD+ is a coenzyme critical for sirtuin function. Boosting NAD+ levels through supplementation or precursors like nicotinamide riboside (NR) has shown promise in enhancing sirtuin activity and may have anti-aging effects. | * '''[[Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+)]]:''' NAD+ is a coenzyme critical for sirtuin function.

* '''Small Molecule Activators:''' Researchers are actively searching for small molecules that can directly activate sirtuins. These molecules hold potential for developing pharmaceutical interventions to target sirtuin pathways. | * '''Small Molecule Activators:''' Researchers are actively searching for small molecules that can directly activate sirtuins.
