Aging Overview

Aging gene

Gene name: FOXQ1
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Tissue type: --
Cell name: 2BS
Gene ID: 94234
Category: protein coding
Phenotype: Esophageal cancer
Experimental category: L
PMID: 28726780
Experiment: DAPI staining//SA-β-gal activity assay//Flow cytometry
Description: Meanwhile, miR30-FOXQ1 also resulted in emerging the morphological features of senescence, characterized by enlarged and flattened cell size, increased senescenceassociated heterochromatin foci, elevated activity of senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal), a biomarker for senescent cells, and reduced S and increased G1 compartments compared with scramble control vector.Conversely, LPC-FOXQ1 induced much lower SA-β-gal activity and less cell cycle progression than the infection with its corresponding empty control vector.


Regulatory relationship

Target gene: SIRT1//IL-6//IL-8//P16
Official symbol(s): SIRT1//IL6//CXCL8//P16
R-AG-Target gene: Upregulation//Downregulation//Downregulation//Downregulation
Subcategory: Binding to promoter
Target gene experiment: Western blot//qRT-PCR//CHIP-qPCR
Target gene description: Western blot analysis revealed that FOXQ1 overexpression significantly increased the protein level of SIRT1 in HEK293T cells.In parallel with the findings from western blot analysis, qRT-PCR analysis also showed a positive regulation of SIRT1 mRNA expression by FOXQ1,indicating that FOXQ1 could activate transcription of SIRT1.The ChIP-qPCR results indicated a significant enrichment of FOXQ1 in the promoter of SIRT1 in the FOXQ1 overexpressed cells compared with the control cells. LPC-FOXQ1 markedly decreased the mRNA abundance of IL-6 and IL-8 compared with control transfection . Besides, increased FOXQ1 expression resulted in a decreased level of p16INK4aprotein, while removal of FOXQ1 exhibited an opposite effect on p16INK4aprotein level.

Regulatory pathway: NF-κB
R-AG-Pathway: Upregulation
Official symbol(s): NFKB1
Pathway experiment: Western blot
Pathway description: We found that the protein level of IκBα, an inhibitor of NF- κB, positively correlated with FOXQ1 and SIRT1.Western blot results revealed that the FOXQ1-induced upregulation of IκBα level was abolished by addition of EX-527 treatment.These results suggested that the FOXQ1-mediated regulation of SASP factors was dependent on SIRT1-NF-κB pathway.
