“…Overexpression of the yeast sirtuin ortholog Sir2 or the DNA replication/recombination RAP1-interacting factor Rif1 extends replicative lifespan (Hoopes et al, 2002;Kaeberlein et al, 1999Kaeberlein et al, , 2004Kwan et al, 2013;Salvi et al, 2013) and also regulate DNA replication origins at the rDNA locus and elsewhere (Cornacchia et al, 2012;Hafner et al, 2018;Hiraga et al, 2018;Mukherjee et al, 2019;Salvi et al, 2013;Shyian et al, 2016;Yamazaki et al, 2012). Recently, low doses of RSV (2.5 mM) were found to protect genome stability via a reduction in replication stress-associated DSBs in murine 3T3 cells (Matsuno et al, 2020). It is possible that RSV might elicit a type of hormesis (Agathokleous and Calabrese, 2019;Stebbing, 1982), whereby low-level replicative stress may be beneficial in some contexts but deleterious in others.…”
