Abstract: Silence information regulator (Sirtuins) are nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent histone deacetylase, which can bind to histones and various transcription factors and play important roles in regulating ovarian reserve, follicular development, oocyte maturation, granulosa cell function and embryonic development. In this paper, the effects of Sirtuins on female reproduction were reviewed in order to provide basis for further study of Sirtuins.

Key words: Sirtuins, female animal, reproduction
