Gdf11 | growth differentiation factor 11 | GDF11 is a circulating factor in young mice that declines with age.
Treatment of old mice to restore GDF11 to youthful levels recapitulated the of young-old parabiosis and reverses age-related hypertrophy. | House mouse |
Nudt1 | nudix (nucleoside diphosphate linked moiety X)-type motif 1 | hMTH1-Tg mice express high levels of the hMTH1 hydrolase that degrades 8-oxoGTP and 8-oxoGTP and excludess 8-oxoguanine from both DNA and RNA.
hMTH1-overexpresing mice have significantly lower steady-state levels of 8-oxoguanine in both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA of several organs, including the brain. hMTH1 overexpression prevents the age-dependent accumulation of DNA 8-oxoguanine that occurs in the wild-type mice. These lower levels of oxidized guanines are associated with increased longevity and hMTH1-Tg animals live significantly longer than their wild-type littermates [23648059].

Mir669c | microRNA 669c | Expression increases with age in mouse liver. The miRNA downregulates detoxification and regeneration genes, which may contribute to aging [18561983]. | House mouse |
miR-214 | microRNA 214 | Expression increases with age in mouse liver. The miRNA downregulates detoxification and regeneration genes, which may contribute to aging [18561983]. | House mouse |
Mir27a | MicroRNA 27a | In Ames dwarf mice (which displays delayed Aging), Mir27a expression is significantly higher than in control mice. Mir27a may be responsible for delayed Aging in dwarf mice: it suppresses the expression of ODC1 and SRM, which in turn suppresses polyamine synthesis in dwarf mice liver. Part of the ability of dwarf mice to suppress or avoid tumor or Cancer growth may be attributed to the decreased Polyamine biosynthesis. [19878148] | House mouse |
Mir489 | microRNA 489 | Mir489 is maintaining adult stem cells in quiescence phase. Inhibition of miR489 is sufficient to make murine satellite muscle cells exit the quiescence phase and enter the cell cycle through downregulation of the oncogene Dek [22358842]. | House mouse |

Srf | Serum Response Factor | SRF is activated by the daily variations of a blood signal, resulting in significant changes in the structure and size of live cells throughout the course of the day [23374345].
Daily variations of plasma signal cyclically stimulates SRF. SRF is solicited in an antiphasic manner in humans and rats, a fact that is linked to their activity, diurnal and nocturnal, respectively. SRF activation is accompanied by a remodeling of the cellular "skeleton", resulting in morphological change in cells based on their activity [23374345].

Drd4 | Dopamine D4 Receptor | 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]. | House mouse |
2-MEA | 2-Mercaptoethylanime hydrochloride | Addition of 1% by weight 2-MEA to the diet of male LAF mice, started shortly after weaning, increases average lifespan by approximately 30%, but does not extend maximum lifespan [5723482; 11795501].
Addition of 2-MEA to the maternal diet of female mice increases the lifespan of male and female offspring by 15 and 8%, respectively [Harman & Eddy, 1979; 11795501].
Addition of 2-MEA of an antioxidant mixture containing ethoxyquin and 2-MEA to the diet of dietary restricted mice shortens lifespan approximately 20% [2394907].

2-ME | 2-Mercaptoethanol | Animals fed a diet supplemented with 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) exhibit an increased mean and maximum lifespan [6334792].
T-cell-dependent immune responses are higher in the 2-ME-fed mice compared to the controls when the animals are young. The accumulation of fluorescent products of lipid peroxidation damage is also delayed in the lymphocytes of the 2-ME-fed mice and tumor onset and incidence is reduced in these animals [6334792]. | House mouse |

alpha-LA | Lipoic Acid | In rats, LA confers a memory effect, by fixing the lifespan of previous feeding regimen. When animals are switched early in life (12 months) from DR to AL and supplemented with α-lipoic acid the DR typical lifespan extension is maintained, but switching early from AL supplemented with α-lipoic acid to DR blocks the lifespan extending effect [18486188].
LA exhibits the ability to compensate for age-related, long-term memory deficits in old rats [8309958] and improves the memory and learning in progeriod mice [15627516]. Culturing LA, protects neurons against death induced by hyperoxia, glutamate, iron and H2O2 [12087131; 11602326].

Klf10 | Kruppel-like factor 10 | Klf10 is circadian, induced by glucose, binds and represses Arntl promoter. Klf10 RNAi caused cellular period shortening (of Arntl- and Per2-luc) [20070857]. | House mouse |
Rgs16 | Regulator of G-protein signaling 16 | Rgs16 knockdown have shorter free-running period of locomotors activity rhythm and reduced total activity. Under daytime RF food-anticipatory activity is attenuated and phase-advance of rhythmic Per2 expression in liver and thalamus is diminished [21408016]. | House mouse |
Gnas | GNAS (guanine nucleotide binding protein, alpha stimulating) complex locus | Mutants in which the Gnasxl transcript is deleted from the Gnas gene, have a high metabolism and are very lean despite consuming more food. The mutant appears to have fewer glial cells in the suprachiasmatic nucleus where the circadian clock is controlled [22253771]. | House mouse |
— | Diabenol | In female NMRI and transgenic HER-2/neu mice supplementation of diabenol with drinking water 5 times a week since the age of 2 months, increases survival and inhibits spontaneous carcinogenesis.
In NMRI diabenol does not influence body weight gain dynamics, food and water consumption, but slowed down age-related disturbances in estrous function and increases the lifespan of all and 10% most long-living ones. Diabenol treatment in NMRI mice also inhibits spontaneous tumor incidence (mammary and lymphomas mainly) and increases mammary tumor latency. Diabenol treatment slows down age-related changes in estrous function in HER-2/neu mice, but fails to influence survival and slightly inhibited the incidence and decrease the size of mammary adenocarcinoma metastasis into the lung [15754958]. | House mouse |
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 |

Ctf1 | Cardiotrophin 1 | 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].
Treatment of cells with CT-1 increases SA-β-galactosidase, and apotosis and senescence makers (p53, p21 and p16), without modifying Mdm2 expression [23172930]. | House mouse |
