Aging Overview

Aging gene

Gene name: METTL3
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Tissue type: --
Cell name: hMSCs
Gene ID: 56339
Category: protein coding
Phenotype: Progeroid syndromes
Experimental category: HL
PMID: 33035345
Experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay//Clonal expansion assay
Description: Furthermore, METTL3-deficient hMSCs acquired premature aging phenotypes, as evidenced by decreased proliferative capacity and increased percentage of SA-β-Gal-positive cells. Moreover, enhanced cell proliferative capacity and reduced SA-β-Gal-positive cells were observed in HGPS and WS hMSCs upon METTL3 overexpression.


Regulatory relationship

Target gene: MIS12
Official symbol(s): MIS12
R-AG-Target gene: Downregulation
Subcategory: Methylation
Target gene experiment: qRT-PCR//Western blot
Target gene description: Among these transcripts, we noticed that m6A modifications in MIS12, a key regulator of cell proliferation, were markedly reduced in both prematurely senescent and METTL3-deficient hMSCs, as validated by MeRIP-qPCR analysis. We also detected a significant decrease in MIS12 expression at both the mRNA and protein levels in HGPS and WS hMSCs as well as in METTL3-deficient hMSCs.
