As people grow older, damage to DNA and organs continue to build up. DNA damage leads to an inability of our cells to complete their renewal functions. A yeast known as Sirtuin, performs the job of making sure the right switches to our vital organs are performed properly. DNA damage can cause this yeast to attempt to stop the damage to the DNA. This delay from monitoring the vital organs, can cause the signals to be misread, causing organ damage..
