Mus musculus (AnAge)

Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing

Observations
Siglece-/- mice exhibited reduced survival and showed accelerated ageing as a result of imbalanced ROS metabolism and impaired detoxication of reactive molecules, which lead to increased oxidative stress. Overall survival of Siglece-/- males was 48% compared to 70% for the wildtype. Median survival of Siglece-/- decreased by 17%.
% change in avg or median lifespan
Median lifespan is 17% lower in females.
