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

    Intergenic (downstream of SSBP3 and MRPL37) Intergenic (downstream of SSBP3 and MRPL37) was found to be associated with longevity [21418511]. Human
    F59B2.8 RNA interference in adulthood shortened the extended lifespan of daf-2(mu150) mutants. Only a negligible or small reduction in the lifespan of wild-type worms was observed in knockouts. Nematode
    ZK686.2 RNA interference in adulthood extended mean lifespan by 24%. Nematode
    YIA6 Deletion of YIA6 decreases replicative lifespan by 30% in the a strain [18340043]. Budding yeast
    F59B8.2 RNA interference resulted in extended lifespan. Nematode
    RAD27 Deletion of RAD27 results in signs of premature aging and approximately 60% reduction in mean replicative lifespan [12024027]. Budding yeast
    ZK809.3 RNA interference increased mean lifespan by 100%. Nematode
    YKL069W Deletion of YKL069W increases sensitivity to oxidative stress and decreases replicative lifespan [19049972]. Budding yeast
    Wrn Mice lacking the helicase domain of the WRN ortholog exhibit many phenotypic features of Werner Syndrom, including a pro-oxidant status and a shorter mean lifespan. Mice with a deletion in the helicase domain [9789047] recapitulates most of the Werner syndrome phenotypes, including an abnormal hyaluronic acid excretion, higher reactive oxygen species levels, dyslipidemia, increased genomic instability, and cancer incidence. Wrn(Dehl/Dehl) mutant mice have a 10 - 15% decrease in their mean lifespan [12707040; 19741171]. House mouse
    F59C6.5 RNA interference in adulthood extended mean lifespan by 19%. Nematode
    RAD57 Mutations result in a 40% reduced lifespan. Budding yeast
    F54D5.11 F54D5.11 RNAi in the adulthood extends the lifespan [New longevity regulators]. Nematode
    ND2 ND2 was found to be associated with longevity [10996007]. Human
    rs2495513 Human
    Ash-2 RNAi extended fertile lifespan. Nematode
    YLR422W Deletion of YLR422W increases replicative lifespan by 25% in the alpha strain [19030232]. Budding yeast
    F54D5.11 F38E11.5 RNAi in the adulthood extends the lifespan [New longevity regulators]. Nematode
    ATP8 ATP8 was found to be associated with longevity [10996007]. Human
    rs4291539 Human
    Rbr-2 RNAi decreased lifespan. Nematode
    HSC80 Deletion of HSC82 has no effect on replicative lifespan, but shortens chronological lifespan [11361336]. Budding yeast
    16S rRNA 16S rRNA was found to be associated with longevity [10996007]. Human
    rs10923806 Human
    cul-6 RNAi decrease lifespan of daf-2 mutant and increased lifespan glp-1 mutant, but had no significant effect on lifespan of WT. Nematode
    APOE + TOMM40 APOE + TOMM40 was not found to be associated with longevity [21418511]. APOE + TOMM40 was not found to be associated with longevity [23040522]. Human
    Factors are an extension of GenAge and GenDR.
