GenAge entry for DBN1 (Homo sapiens)
Gene name (HAGRID: 228)
- HGNC symbol
- DBN1
- Aliases

Potential relevance to the human ageing process
- Main reason for selection
- Entry selected based on indirect or inconclusive evidence linking the gene product to ageing in humans or in one or more model systems
- Description
DBN1 is thought to be involved in neuronal growth. In a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease, DBN1 levels were found to decline with age [1666]. DBN1 could thus play a role and neurodegenerative diseases.
