Abstract
The present invention relates to sirtuin 6 activating peptides derived from highly conserved regions of human Sirtuin (SIRT) proteins, and to a cosmetic or pharmaceutical composition comprising at least one sirtuin 6 activating peptide in a physiologically acceptable medium. The invention further relates to the utilization of a cosmetic composition to prevent and/or repair Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) degradation, improve telomere maintenance and reduce cellular senescence. The invention also applies to a cosmetic treatment process intended to prevent and/or treat the cutaneous signs of aging and photo aging.
