Genomic instability is a key factor in aging. This study uses a transgenic mouse model to investigate genomic instability across various mouse tissues and cells during aging.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology and Molecular Biology
  • Study of aging processes and their molecular underpinnings.

Background:

  • Aging is a complex biological process associated with progressive decline.
  • Genomic instability is a proposed hallmark of aging, contributing to cellular dysfunction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role and extent of genomic instability during aging.
  • To utilize a transgenic mouse model for studying age-related genomic instability.

Main Methods:

  • Development and use of a transgenic mouse model containing lacZ reporter genes.
  • Integration of reporter gene constructs at chromosomal locations.
  • Analysis of genomic instability in various mouse organs, tissues, and embryonic fibroblasts in primary culture.

Main Results:
