Aging Overview

Aging gene

Gene name: BRG1
Aging type: Accelerate
Aging characteristic:
Tissue type: --
Cell name: IMR-90
Gene ID: 834543
Category: protein coding
Phenotype: Aging
Experimental category: L
PMID: 23438604
Experiment: Knockdown//SA-β-gal activity assay
Description: We ectopically expressed wild type BRG1 in IMR90 normal human fibroblasts. Indeed, there was a significant increase in SAHF formation in cells ectopically expressing BRG1 compared with controls. Consistently,other markers of SAHF such as formation of H3K9Me2 and mH2A1.2 foci were also induced by the ectopically expressed wild type BRG1.Expression of SA-β-gal activity, a hallmark of cellular senescence, was also induced by wild type BRG1 expression.


Regulatory relationship

Target gene: BRCA1//P16//P21
Official symbol(s): BRCA1//P16//P21
R-AG-Target gene: --//Upregulation//Upregulation
Subcategory: Unclear
Target gene experiment: Knockdown//SA-β-gal activity assay//Western blot
Target gene description: Compared with shBRCA1 alone cells, expression of wild type BRG1 but not mutant BRG1 induced a more pronounced senescence phenotype as indicated by a significant increase in SAHF formation and expression of SA-β-gal activity.This correlated with an increased induction of p16INK4a and P21cip1.
