Expression of DNA Methyltransferases Is Influenced by Growth Hormone in the Long-Living Ames Dwarf Mouse In Vivo and In Vitro
7 Nov 2013
Abstract excerpt
Methyltransferase expression and DNA methylation are linked to aging and age-related disease. We utilized 3-, 12-, and 24-month-old Ames dwarf and their wild-type siblings to examine the genotype and age-related differences in the expression of methyltransferase enzymes related to DNA methylation in the liver, glycine-N-methyltransferase and DNA methyltransferase (DNMT). We found that DNMT proteins and...
