Observations
Umbilical vein endothelial cells overexpressing full-length SGK1 showed a decrease in SA-beta-galactosidase and p21 expression and a corresponding increase in hTERT activity in the early stages of aging.

    Common name
    serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 1 
    Entrez Id
    6446
    Description
    This gene encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays an important role in cellular stress response. This kinase activates certain potassium, sodium, and chloride channels, suggesting an involvement in the regulation of processes such as cell survival, neuronal excitability, and renal sodium excretion. High levels of expression of this gene may contribute to conditions such as hypertension and diabetic nephropathy. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
