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

    ENSRNOG00000044070 is transcriptional upregulated in the cerebral cortex at the age 28 months under different longevity conditions such as under dietary restriction (DR) as well as in feeding switch regimens that result in extended lifespan, like early age switch to DR as well as the reverse switch under the influence of the DR-mimetic α-lipoic acid (i.e. DR switched to ad libitum+ lipoic acid) [Shona et al. 2013].

    acdh-1 Acyl CoA DeHydrogenase 1 RNAi knockdown of acdh-1 starting at hatching or only during the adulthood significantly decreases lifespan of eat-2 without affecting wild-type lifespan. ACDH-1 significantly upregulated in eat-2. Increased content of ACDH-1 is, at least partially, required for lifespan-extension by DR [22810224]. Nematode
    asp-3 ASpartyl Protease 3 RNA interference against asp-3 significantly reduces lifespan of eat-2(ad1116) mutants, without any significant affect on the lifespan of wild-type. Mean and 75%ile lifespan of eat-2 mutants is reduced by 13-14% and 5-9% by asp-3 RNAi. ASP-3 is upregulated in eat-2 mutants [22810224]. Nematode

    BHB β-hydroxybutyrate β-hydroxybutyrate (βOHB), ketone body is produced during a prolonged low-caloric or ketonic diet. Low concentrations of βOHB helps protect cells from "oxidative stress". dietary restriction (DR) spurs βOHB production. βOHB is an endogenous and specific inhibitor of class I histone deacetylases (HDACs). Exogenous βOHB administration, fasting or DR increases global histone acetylation in mouse tissues. HDAC inhibition by βOHB is correlated with global changes in transcription, including oxidative stress factors Foxo3a and Mt2. Cells treated with βOHB have increased histone acetylation at Foxo3a and Mt2 promoters. Both Foxo3a and Mt2 are activated by selective depletion of HDAC1 and HDAC2. normally keeps a pair of genes, namely Foxo3a and Mt2 switched off [http://www.biocompare.com/Life-Science-News/126847-Gladstone-Scientists-Discover-Novel-Mechanism-By-Which-Calorie-Restriction-Influences-Longevity/; http://www.sciencemag.org/content/early/2012/12/05/science.1227166].

    FET3 FErrous Transport 3 FET3 mutation slightly shortens chronological lifespan under AL. Its chronological lifespan is not extended by 0.5% glucose or amino-acid DR [20421943].

    gpa2 Guanine nucleotide-binding protein alpha-2 subunit gpa2 (alias git8) encodes the alpha subunit of a heterotrimeric G protein, which acts downstream of Git3. Git8 activity accelerates aging and inhibits the lifespan-extending effect of DR. Constitutive active mutation of gpa2 decreases chronological lifespan under AL (2% glucose) and almost completely cancels out the lifespan extending effect of DR (0.2% glucose) [19266076]. Fission yeast
    HES1 Homologous to kES1 1 Deletion of HES1 (alias OSH5) extends replicative lifespan and is non-additive with moderate DR. Elevation of OSH5 levels by an ERG6 promoter reduces mean, median and maximum replicative lifespan by 25, 18 and 29%. HES1 is required for the longevity effect of DR, Perg6-OSH6, Perg6-ERG2 and Perg6-OSH7 (genetic mimetics of DR). Hes1 is upregulated in response to sterol down-regulation including DR. Deletion of OSH5 delays different steps of endocytosis, a sterol-requireing process [Xia et al., unpublished]. Perg6-OSH6 osh5 double mutant have a lifespan significantly shorter than that of Perg6-OSH6 [Xia et al. upublished]. Budding yeast

    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
