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

    Gh1 growth hormone 1 Animals carrying a single copy of an anti-sense Gh1 transgene (tg/-) live on average 7-10% longer. However, animals carrying two copies of the transgene (tg/tg) have a slighlty shorter lifespan compared to -/- animals, indicating that an optimal dosage of Gh1 is nessary to achieve lifespan exentension and too little GH has a detrimental effect on longevity. tg/tg and tg/- animals are dwarfs and exhibit reduced levels of serum IGF1 [12057928]. Norway rat
    Npy neuropeptide Y Overexpression of Npy under the control of its own promoter results in increased mean and maximum lifespan. However the observed lifespan extension is relatively small (p = 0.0059 by Wilcoxin test and p = 0.05 by t-test; n = 20) [12668588]. The blood pressure of Npy transgenic rats was significantly lower as compared with nontransgenic siblings. Food intake and weight were not significantly different compared to controls [12668588].

    Mir98 microRNA mir-98 miR-98-3p is the only miRNA significantly differentially expressed (upregulated) under DR and LA (lipoic acid; a DR-mimetic) treatment. Across mouse, rat and human predicted targets of miR-98-3p include the glutamate receptors, calcium transporters, histones and histone acetyltransferase/deacetylases. miR-89-3p is expressed at a low level and is highly conserved in rat, mouse, human and anplis lizard. Mir-98 precursor is located on the X-chromosome. In the rat, mouse and human genome it overlaps an E3 ubiquitin ligase HUWE which is involved in regulation of apoptosis, regulation of neural differentiation and proliferation, DNA damage repair [Shona et al. 2013]. miR-98 expression is significantly decreased in the adventitia and endomembrane ath different degrees in Goto-Kakizaki rat, a model of type 2 diabetes. miR-98 targets TRB2 which is increased in expression in this model of type 2 diabetes. TRB2 phosphorylates Akt [22012613]. The mouse ortholog of Mir98 may by associated with the germline [16766679]. Norway rat
