ACE | angiotensin I converting enzyme (peptidyl-dipeptidase A) 1 | The I/D polymorphism in ACE was a examined in centenarians (n = 338) and in adults aged 20-70 years. A variant of ACE which predisposes the coronary heat disease was more frequently in centenarians with a significant increase of the homozygous genotype [8136829].
I/D polymorphism was examined in 182 women and 100 men aged >84 years and in 100 boys and 100 girls younger than 17 years. The I/I polymorphism was depleted in the elderly males but not in the elderly females. Furthermore, significant differences were observed between ACE genotypes in elderly men and elderly women [9105559].
I/D polymorphism was examined in 394 French centenarians (13% men and 87% women) and controls (238) from 20 to 70 years of age (140 men and 98 women). Both the ACE D allele and ACE D/D genotype were more frequent in centenarians in comparison with controls, without sex-related differences nor significant correlation with a cardiovascular pathology [9761238].
I/D polymorphism was examined in 424 subjects comprising 227 Uighur individuals, 108 Kazakh individuals, and 89 Han individuals. All subjects in the latter two groups ranged in age from 65 to 70 years, whereas the Uighur subjects comprised two different age groups: those ranging in age from 59 to 70 years and those ranging in age from 90 to 113 years. Within the Uighur group, frequency of the D allele was significantly higher in the group aged >90 than in the group aged <70. The overall distributions of alleles in the three groups did not differ significantly [11773214].

APOC3 | apolipoprotein C-III | Several small nucleotide polymorphisms in the APOC3 gene were associated with longevity [8018664; 11193221; 16602826].
The Sst I polymorphism was examined in 179 Finnish centenarians. The S2 allele (Sst I restriction site present) occurred more often in the centenarians (frequency, 12.9%) than in the youngest reference population (frequency, 8.8%) [8018664]. | Human |
YTHDF2 | YTH domain family, member 2 | A locus associated with human longevity corresponds to (TG)n microsatellite is located in the YTHDF2 gene. 412 participants of different ages, including 137 centenarians, were genotyped. The increased homozygosity in centenarians at this locus was confirmed, and observed a concomitantly increased frequency of the most frequent allele and the corresponding homozygous genotype. The same genotype was associated with increased YTHDF2 messenger RNA levels in immortalized lymphocytes. [16799135].YTHDF2 was found to be associated with longevity [16799135]. | Human |
miR152 | microRNA 152 | MiR152 belongs to miR148/152 cluster and can act as a tumor-suppressor. In ovarian cancer, miR152 suppresses DNMT1 directly and inhibits proliferation of cancer cells. [23318422] The miRNA is downregulated in ovarian cancer cells lines and its downregulation may lead to deregulation of cell proliferation in ovarian cancer. [21971665]

miR148a | microRNA 148a | miR148a belongs to miR148-152 cluster and acts as a tumor-suppressor in different types of cancer. MiR148a expression is suppressed more than 4-fold in gastric cancer. An inverse correlation has been observed between miR148a expression and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. Mir148a suppresses migratory abilities of cancer cells and metastasis formation by downregulating the oncogene ROCK1 expression [21994419]. miR148a is downregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). it has been shown that miR148a directly targets the 3'UTR region of CDC25B mRNA. CDC25B is a phosphatase that, by activating a cyclin-CDK complex, initiates mitosis, therefore CDC25B suppression by miR148a could have a tumor-suppressor effect on PDAC. [21709669] | Human |

hsa-let-7c | microRNA let-7c | let-7c is downregulated in prostate cancer, which increases cell proliferation [22479342]. More specifically, let-7c is a regulator of androgen receptor (AR), which plays a role in the development of prostate cancer [22128178]. | Human |
hsa-let-7b | microRNA let-7b | Let-7b, a member of the let-7 group, appears to be a tumor-suppressor. In acute lymphoblastic leukemia, let-7b is severely downregulated and its overexpression inhibits cancer cells growth [22918121]. In melanoma cells, the miRNA downregulates the expression of cell cycle regulators such as cyclin D1, D3, and A and Cdk4, which inhibits cell cycle progression. [18379589] | Human |
