Common factors among three types of cells aged in mice.

Abstract

The greatest risk factor for the formation of numerous significant chronic disorders is aging. Understanding the core molecular underpinnings of aging can help to slow down the inevitable process. Systematic study of gene expression or DNA methylation data is possible at the transcriptomics and epigenetics levels. DNA methylation and gene expression are both affected by aging. Gene expression is an important element in the aging of Homo sapiens. In this work, we evaluated the expression of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), proteins, and transcription factors (TFs) in three different types of cells in mice: antibody-secreting cells, cardiac mesenchymal stromal cells, and skeletal muscle cells. The goal of this article is to uncover a common cause during aging among these cells in order to increase understanding about establishing complete techniques for preventing aging and improving people's quality of life. We conducted a comprehensive network-based investigation to establish which genes and proteins are shared by the three different types of aged cells. Our findings clearly indicated that aging induces gene dysregulation in immune, pharmacological, and apoptotic pathways. Furthermore, our research developed a list of hub genes with differential expression in aging responses that should be investigated further to discover viable anti-aging treatments.
