SOD1 | superoxide dismutase 1, soluble | Ubiquitous overexpression of SOD1 does not extend lifespan in mice. Homozyous transgenic mice with two- to five-fold overexpression of SOD1 in various tissues exhibit a light reduction in lifespan. Hemizygous transgenic mice, with 1.5- to 3-fold overexpression of SOD1 display no difference in lifespan compared with nontransgenic litermate controls [10719757]. Transgenic mice with a mutant SOD1 transgene develop neuronal cytoskeletal lesions resembling the human amytrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) phenotype [8610185]. Transgenic mice overexpressing SOD1 (and having 3.1-fold higher cellular Cu,Zn SOD activity in the brain) have reduced infarct size following experimental cerebral ischemia [1763030].SOD1 was not found to be associated with longevity [24163049]. | Human |

CETP | cholesteryl ester transfer protein, plasma | Homozygousity for the I405V variant of CETP is associated with exceptional longevity and larger HDL and LDL particle sizes as well as lower prevalence of hypertension, cardivascular disease, and metabolic disease among Askenazi Jews [14559957]. CETP I405V homozygousity is associated with exceptional longevity and preservation of cognitive function in Askenazi Jews [17190939].
V/V homozygotes tend to have a 9-23% CETP deficiency [9610775; 15243211]. A decrease in CETP function increases HDL (high density lipoproteins) levels in the body, and decreases LDL (low-density lipoprotein). The result of this s that HDL-c levels are approximately equal in individuals with the I/I or I/V genotypes, while there are ten percent higher in V/V individuals [9610775].
Therefore the V/V SNP acts kind like an endogenous *CEPT inhibitor*, which might be the responsible for the increase in longevity but may also have side effects.CETP was found to be associated with longevity [22336474].CETP was found to be associated with longevity [15621216].CETP was found to be associated with longevity [15888337].
