Aging Overview

Aging gene

Gene name: MIR34A
Aging type: Accelerate
Aging characteristic:
Tissue type: --
Cell name: HCT116,RKO
Gene ID: 407040
Category: ncRNA
Phenotype: Colorectal cancer
Experimental category: HL
PMID: 17875987
Experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay//Cell proliferation assay
Description: We observed that introduction of miR-34a in HCT 116 cells caused senescence-like phenotypes with positive staining for senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) and enlarged cellular size.RKO cells also showed similar morphological changes with enlarged cellular size by miR-34a introduction,although few SA-β-gal-positive cells were observed.The introduction of miR-34a caused a remarkable inhibition of cell proliferation in both HCT 116 and RKO cells compared with that of control miRNA.


Regulatory relationship

Regulatory pathway: E2F//P53
R-AG-Pathway: Downregulation//Upregulation
Official symbol(s): E2F//TP53
Pathway experiment: Western blot
Pathway description: We also observed that p53 and p21 started to accumulate at 2 and 4 h, respectively, and the accumulation continued until 48 h after treatment.As expected, LoVo and RKO cells increased expression of miR-34a similar to HCT 116 cells, but DLD1 and HT29 cells showed no change, like the HCT 116 p53/ cells. Accumulation of p53 and p21 was observed in HCT 116, LoVo, and RKO cells, whereas HCT 116 p53/ cells showed no accumulation, and DLD1 and HT29 cells expressing mutant p53 showed consistent levels of p53 and no accumulation of p21.As for the down-regulated genes, E2F1, E2F2, and some E2F-target genes, including DHFR, MCM3, and MCM10, were observed among the list.introduction of miR-34a decreased the accumulation of E2F-1 and -3. E2F-2 was not detectable in either case .
