Crosstalk between endothelial SIRT1 and eNOS in mediating endothelial function. Schematic presentation of the current idea on the reciprocal regulation of SIRT1 and eNOS. Resveratrol activates both SIRT1 and eNOS, whereas FOXO1 and FOXO3a are involved in the resveratrol induced eNOS transcriptional activation, based on the published literature (Xia et al., 2013). Cilostazol increases NO production by stimulating eNOS serine 1177 phosphorylation mediated by cAMP/PKA- and PI3K/Akt-dependent pathways. NO, nitric oxide; FOXO, forkhead box O; SMC, smooth muscle cells. KLF2, Krüppel-like Factor 2.
