| name | effect | species | mean | median | maximum | | Lep knockout | Lep knockout results in ob/ob mice which eats excessively and becomes profoundly obese. ob/ob mice live shorter on ad libitum, but achieve a lifespan similiar to control levels under DR, yet their precentage of body fat is much greater that that of controls [6608731]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Coq7 knockout | Mice heterozygous in Coq7 live about 15 to 30% longer than controls [16195414]. | Mouse | +15 to +30 | — | — | | Sirt6 knockout | Sirt6 knockout mice develop signs of premature ageing including a short lifespan [16439206].
Mice without Sirt6 have a higher risk of gastrointestinal cancers. Loss of Sirt6 increases the number, size and aggressiveness of tumors. Sirt6 loss leads to tumor formation even without activation of oncogenes. Transformed SIRT6-deficient cells exhibit increased glycolysis and tumor growth [23217706].
| Mouse | — | — | — | | Ctf1 knockout | Absence of Ctf1 is associated with decreased arterial fibrosis, stiffness mad senescence and increased longevity. Ctf1-null mice have a decrease in arterial stiffness and decrease in levels of inflammatory, apoptotic and senescence, whereas telomere-linked and DNA repair proteins as well as antioxidant enzyme activities are increased. The median lifespan of Ctf1-null mice is increased by 5 month (18%) [23172930].
Wild-type and Ctf1-null mice exhibit an increase of senescence markers (p53, Mdm2, p21, and p16) with age but are lower in Ctf1-null mice. Ctf1-null mice have a diminished vascular NFκB signaling, lower inflammation and oxidative stress and reduced senescence. Ctf1-null mice have a 12% increase in body weight, 130% increased adiponectin levels and 51% decreased leptin concentrations [23172930]. | Mouse | — | +18 | — | | Arhgap1 knockout | Most Ahrgap1 knockout mice are weak and die during the neonatal period. Animals that survived have a shorter lifespan (median lifespan is 12 months) and show premature aging-like phenotypes, including a reduction in body mass, a loss of subdermal adipose tissue, lordokyphosis, and osteoporosis [17227869]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Atm knockout | Atm-deficient mice are viable, retarded in growth, infertile (male produce no mature sperm and female no gametes), display neurological dysfunction, and exhibit severe defects in T cell maturation while going on to develop thymomas [8917548; 8689683]. The majority of mutant mice rapidly develop thymic lymphomas and die before 4 months of age [8843194].
Cells of Atm(-/-) mice exhibit slow growth also in culture and premature senescence, telomeres are extensively shortened in multiple tissues [8689683].
Mice mutant for Atm and Terc display progressive multi-organ system compromise and features of accelerated aging [12540856]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Atr knockout | Deletion of Atr in young adults eliminates 80-90% of proliferating cells and results in several age-related phenotypes accompanied by a depletion of stem and progenitor cells and exhaustion of tissue renewal and homeostatic capacity [18371340].
Atr mutant mice (so called Seckle mice) exhibit high levels of replicative stress during embryogenesis, when proliferation is widespread, but this is reduced to marginal amounts in postnatal life. In spite of this decrease, adult Seckel mice display accelerated aging, which is further aggravated in the absence of p53. Seckel mice die in less than half a year, exhibit pancytopenia, cachexia and signs of premature aging, including hair graying, kyphosis, osteoporosis, accumulation of fat in the bone marrow, decreased density of hair follicles and thinner epidermis [19620979]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Bax knockout | Inactivation of proapoptotic Bax extends fertile potential and minimized age-related health problems, including bone and muscle loss, excess fat deposition, alopecia, cataracts, deafness, increased anxiety, and selective attention deficit. Bax deficiency does not lead to an increase in tumor incidence. Despite the apparently increased quality of life of aging females lacing Bax, there is no significant differences in overall lifespan [17360389]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Cdkn1a knockout | Deletion of Cdkna1 (alias p21) prolongs the lifespan of telomerase-deficient mice with dysfunctional telomeres and improves the repopulation capacity and self-renewal of hematopoietic stem cells [17143283].
The p21(-/-) strains like the Cdkn1a(tmi/Tyj) exhibits enormous regenerative capacities as it closes ear holes similar to MRL mice [20231440; 21722344]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Efemp1 knockout | Efemp1 knockout mice exhibited an early onset of aging-associated phenotypes including a 20% shorted median lifespan and 30% shorter maximum lifespan, decreased body mass, lordokyphosis, reduced hair growth, and atrophy [17872905]. | Mouse | — | +20 | +30 | | Fgf23 knockout | Fgf23 knockouts have a short lifespan and display premature aging-like symptoms including kyphosis, muscle wasting, osteopenia, emphysema, uncoordinated movement, atherosclerosis, and atrophy of the intestinal villi, skin, thymus, and spleen [16436465].
Lack of Fgf23 activities results in extensive premature aging-like features and early mortality of Fgf-23(-/-) mice, while restoring the systemic effects of FGF-23 significantly ameliorates these phenotypes, with the resultant effect being improved growth, restored fertility, and significantly prolonged survival of double mutants [18729070]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Foxm1 deletion | Deletion of Foxm1 causes age-related deterioration in liver regeneration [14647066]. | Mouse | — | — | — | | Drd4 knockout | Drd4 knockout mice, when compared with wild-type and heterozygous mice, display a 7 - 9.7% decrease in lifespan, reduced spontaneous locomotor activity, and no lifespan increase when reared in an enriched environment [23283341]. | Mouse | -7 to -9.7 | — | — | |
