Abstract: Provided herein are methods for using Cdc2-like kinase (Clk) modulators for treating and/or preventing a wide variety of diseases and disorders including, for example, diseases or disorders related to aging or stress, diabetes, obesity, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease, blood clotting disorders, inflammation, cancer, ocular disorders, and/or flushing as well as diseases or disorders that would benefit from increased mitochondrial activity. Also provided are compositions comprising a Clk modulating compound in combination with another therapeutic agent.

Abstract: Sirtuin modulators, particularly sirtuin activators, are useful in treating vision impairment. In general, the sirtuin modulators inhibit the progression of vision impairment resulting from various eye disorders. The invention also includes pharmaceutically acceptable formulations of sirtuin modulators, particular ophthalmically acceptable formulations.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods and compositions for treating or preventing neurodegenerative disorders or blood coagulation disorders. Methods may comprise modulating the activity or level of a sirtuin, such as SIRT1 or Sir2. Exemplary methods comprise contacting a cell with a sirtuin activating compound, such as a flavone, stilbene, flavanone, isoflavone, catechin, chalcone, tannin or anthocyanidin; or an inhibitory compound, such as nicotinamide.

Abstract: Provided herein are sirtuin-modulating compounds and methods of use thereof. The sirtuin-modulating compounds may be used for increasing the lifespan of a cell, and treating and/or preventing a wide variety of diseases and disorders including, for example, diseases or disorders related to aging or stress, diabetes, obesity, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular disease, blood clotting disorders, inflammation, cancer, and/or flushing. Also provided are compositions comprising a sirtuin-modulating compound in combination with another therapeutic agent.
