The sirtuin (SIRT) family is a group of seven conserved nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent histone deacetylases (SIRT1-SIRT7), which play crucial roles in various fundamental biological processes, including metabolism, aging, stress responses, inflammation, and cell survival. The role of SIRTs in neuro-pathophysiology has recently attracted significant attention. Notably, SIRT1-SIRT3 have been identified as key players in neuroprotection as they reduce neuroinflammation and regulate mitochondrial function.

It opens the potential for early diagnosis of cancer by revealing changes of dielectric characteristics. However, direct MAET is unable to image the irregularly-shaped lesions fully due to the dependence on the angle between conductivity boundary and ultrasound beam direction.
