- Name
- glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
- Organism
- Mus musculus (AnAge)
Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing
- Observations
- Female mice overexpressing human G6PD (G6PD-Tg) had a 13.7% increase in median lifespan compared to wild type mice. G6PD-Tg mice had lower levels of oxidative stress and increased protection from age-associated functional decline. However, male mice showed no increase in median lifespan and neither male or female mice showed any increase in maximal lifespan.
- % change in avg or median lifespan
- Median lifespan is 14% higher in females.
