Aging Overview

Aging gene

Gene name: MIF
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Tissue type: --
Cell name: MSC
Gene ID: 4282
Category: protein coding
Phenotype: Myocardial infarction
Experimental category: L
PMID: 31881006
Experiment: Knockdown//Western blot//SA-β-gal activity assay
Description: MIF-siRNA treatment of young MSCs significantly downregulated MIF expression, while it significantly elevated p53 and p21 expression. Furthermore, MIF-siRNA treatment remarkably increased the number of SA-β-gal-positive cells among young MSCs.While the overexpression of MIF in aged MSCs enhanced MIF expression, it reduced p53 and p21 expression. Moreover, the percentage of SA-β-gal-positive cells was greatly reduced in MIF-aged MSCs compared with aged MSCs.


Regulatory relationship

Target gene: BECLIN1//LC3-I/II//P62
Official symbol(s): BECLIN1//MAP1LC3A//P62
R-AG-Target gene: Upregulation//Upregulation//Downregulation
Subcategory: Unclear
Target gene experiment: Western blot
Target gene description: Autophagy has recently been found to inhibit cellular senescence.Overexpression of MIF in aged MSCs significantly induced autophagy, as manifested by the elevated expression of Beclin1 and LC3I/II and the reduced expression of p62.
