Aging Overview

Aging gene

Gene name: MECP2
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Tissue type: --
Cell name: MSC
Gene ID: 4204
Category: protein coding
Phenotype: Aging
Experimental category: HL
PMID: 20065150
Experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay//Knockdown
Description: We observed signs of senescence in cells treated with Ad‐siRNA‐MECP2, as detected by acid β‐galactosidase, when compared with cells transduced with Ad‐siRNA‐CTRL.


Regulatory relationship

Regulatory pathway: RB//P53
R-AG-Pathway: --//--
Official symbol(s): retinoblastoma//TP53
Pathway experiment: RT-PCR//Western blot
Pathway description: In cells transduced with Ad‐siRNA‐MECP2, we observed an increase in RB gene expression at both the mRNA and protein levels and an increase in RB2/P130 gene expression at only the mRNA level. On in vitro MECP2 down‐regulation, we obtained evidence for significant changes in P53 mRNA levels, but no modification of the protein levels occurred.
