- Symbol
- Atg5
- Name
- autophagy related 5
- Organism
- Mus musculus (AnAge)
- Observations
- Overexpression of Atg5 extends median lifespan of mice by 17.2%. Additionally, it enhances autophagy, and Atg5 transgenic mice show anti-ageing phenotypes, including leanness, increased insulin sensitivity and improved motor function.
- % change in avg or median lifespan
