Factors

We need to know every factor which determines lifespan.

Lifespan factors often but not always originate from defined genetic elements. They are not just genes, by definition they can be anything for which a Classifications schema can be build for that is related to the regulation of lifespan, such entities may include Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism, transcript variants, proteins and their complexes, compounds (i.e. small molecules like metabolites and drugs), etc. A factor should be based on a defined molecular entity or genomic position and been classified. It shall be highly flexible and scalable Concept.

While individual lifespan factors within each species or precise defined molecular entities will be captured within the Lifespan App, Data Entries of the Data App may summarize for instance the relevance of each factor class (e.g. homologous group; chemical derivate of related structure and properties, etc.) as well as draw overall conclusions. o

    TERT telomerase reverse transcriptase Telomerase-expressing cells (human foreskin fibroblasts, retinal pigment epithelial cells) maintain normal length of telomeres and continue to divide vigorously [9454332]. Cells expression telomerase have reduced staining for beta-galactosidase (a biomarker of cellular senescence) [9501072]. TERT expression is also able to prevent the accelerated replicative senescence observed in cells taken from Werner's patients [10615119].

    SNCA synuclein, alpha (non A4 component of amyloid precursor) Transgenic lines overexpressing either human wild-type or mutant (A53T) forms of the SNCA (alpha-synclein) gene under a pan-neuronal promoter live on average about 25% longer, even in weak (m577) and strong (e1370) daf-2 mutant backgrounds, and exhibited decreased pharyngeal pumping and egg-laying. Wild-type SNCA crossed into eat-2(ad1113) does not significantly effect lifespan compared to that of the background strain. Pumping rate in wild-type SCNA and A53T SCNA overexpression mutants were less than control already at day 1 of adulthood. The attenuation of lifespan exptesion by SNCA overexpression by growing on thick bacterial lawns, suggests that DR may explain some fo the effects on lifespan. SCNA overexpression increases average lifespan by 21.3% (wild-type) and 16.3% (A53T) [16782295]. Mutation of SCNA (alias alpha synclein) is associated with Parkinson's disease [9197268], which is characterized with resting tremor, rigidity bradykinesia and posural instability that are associated with selective neurodegeneration of the pigmented neurons in the brain stem (substantia nigra and locus coerues) and the presence of intracytoplasmic inclusion bodies (Lewy bodies) [Yamamura et al. 1973]. The mutated protein (Ala53Thr or Ala30Pro) may misfold, aggregate and resist degradation [11433374].SNCA was found to be associated with longevity [22912757].
