lin-4 | abnormal cell LINeage 4 | A loss-of-function mutation in lin-4 shortens lifespan and accelerated tissue ageing while overexpressing lin-4 extends lifespan by redarding aging [16373574].
lin-4 is regulated by DAF-16 in L1 arrest. | Nematode |
mir-124 | — | Loss of mir-124 increases reactive oxygen species formation and accumulation of the aging marker lipofuscin, reduces whole body ATP levels and results in reduction in lifespan [23075628].
Supplementation of vitamin C normalizes the reduced median lifespan of mir-124 mutants [23075628].
The expression of the conserved mir-124 in whole wrn-1 mutants (which premature age) is significantly reduced [23075628]. | Nematode |
mir-238 | — | Mutating mir-238 decreases mean and maximum lifespan by 18 and 24% [21129974]. mir-238(n4112) mutation decreases mean lifespan by 20% [22482727]. | Nematode |
mir-239 | — | Mutating mir-239 increases mean and maximum lifespan by 12 and 36%, respectively, whereas overexpressing mir-239 decreases mean and maximum lifespan by 13 and 17 - 33%, respectively [21129974]. | Nematode |
mir-246 | — | Mutating mir-246 decreases mean and maximum lifespan by 12%, while its overexpression increases mean and maximum lifespan by 6 and 5 - 14%, respectively [21129974]. | Nematode |
mir-58 | — | mir-58(n4640) mutation decreases the mean lifespan by 20% [22482727]. | Nematode |
mir-71 | — | Loss and gain-of-function of mir-71 decreases and increases lifespan, respectively [21129974]. mir-71 mutants have a reduced lifespan with 40% decrease in mean lifespan, while extra copies of mir-71 extend the lifespan with an increase in lifespan by 15 - 25% [22482727],
Loss of mir-71 function suppresses the long lifespan of glp-1(e2141) mutants [22482727],
During adulthood mir-71 is strongly expressed in the intestine, body wall muscles and neurons. mir-71 is upregulated in aging adults [22482727], | Nematode |
mrpl-1 | — | Knockdown of mrpl-1 increases lifespan by 57% [23698443]. | Nematode |
mrpl-2 | — | Knockdown of mrpl-2 increases lifespan by 54% [23698443]. | Nematode |
mrpl-37 | — | Knockdown of mrpl-37 increases lifespan by 41% [23698443]. | Nematode |
mrps-5 | — | Knockdown of mrps-5 throughout the entire life increases the lifespan by 60%. mrps-5 RNAi prevents aging-associated functional decline and alters mitochondrial function. Knocking down mrps-5 after early development no longer affects nematode lifespan. When RNAi of mrps-5 was performed during the larval stages only, lifespan increases by 48%, whereas RNAi started from the L4 stage has no effect. mrps-5 RNAi results in fragmented mitochondria. mrps-5 RNAi increases lifespan by 40% in widltype, 37% in daf-16(mu86), 40% in sir-2.1(ok434) 69% in aak-2(ok524) and 112% in mev-1(kn1). Knockdown of cco-1 does not extend the lifespan of mrps-5 RNAi [23698443]. | Nematode |
nhr-62 | Nuclear Hormone Receptor family | NHR-62 is required for metabolic and physiologic responses associated with DR-induced longevity. *nhr-62* mediates the longevity response of *eat-2* mutants and blunts the longevity by bacterial food dilution [Heestand, et al. 2012].
Mutation in *nhr-62* suppresses the lifespan extension of eat-2(ad465) animals (p<0.001) [Heestand et al. 2013].
Wild-type (N2) worms with extrachromosomal array dhEx627 (carrying a wild-type nhr-62) exhibit a significant increase in lifespan compared to wild-type (p<0.001) [Heestand et al. 2013]. | Nematode |
