RESUMO
Sestrin proteins, conserved family proteins which mainly induced by ROS, DNA damage, inflammation, and other injuries. Growing evidences proved sestrin proteins exert protective functions in cardiovascular diseases, chronic degenerative osteoarthritis, musculoskeletal diseases, aging and others, sestrin proteins exhibit an anti-inflammatory response, improving metabolism and other valuable character. However, there is no comprehensive and detailed summary and literature research on the intervention methods of sestrin proteins at present. As the advance of research during last several years, exercise training and other interventions are considered to be the potential methods to up-regulate expression level of protein. In view of the physiological function of this protein, a review of the main studies on regulating the expression level of this protein can provide a novel approach for the clinical treatment and scientific research. In present study, all related researches about interventions and potential mechanisms were reviewed and the mainstream methodologies were described.
