Aging Overview

External factors

External factors: Estrogen
Aging type: Prevent
Aging characteristic:
Category: Chemical compounds
Phenotype: Breast cancer
Experimental category: L
Tissue type: --
Cell name: MCF-7
PMID: 21671470
Experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay
Description: The addition of 1 nM beta-estradiol to MCF-7 cells grown in charcoal-stripped serum brought the level of cellular senescence down to 35% β-galactosidase positive cells.


Regulatory relationship

Target gene: YPEL3
R-EF-Target gene: Downregulation
Official symbol(s): YPEL3
Target gene experiment: SA-β-gal activity assay//RT-PCR//Knockdown
Target gene description: In contrast, shLacZ expressing MCF-7 cells did show the expected induction of cellular senescence when grown in charcoal-stripped serum. Knockdown of YPEL3 expression was confirmed with relative mRNA expression.
