Potential relevance to the human ageing process

Main reason for selection
Entry selected based on evidence directly linking the gene product to ageing in a mammalian model organism
Description

Like CEBPA, CEBPB is a transcription factor involved in fat metabolism. CEBPB also appears to play a role in liver regeneration [1130]. Albeit it was not clear their ageing process was retarded, mice carrying the CEBPB gene instead of CEBPA lived 20% more than controls, burned more fat, and their mitochondria were more active [1122]. As such, it is possible that CEBPB plays a role in human ageing, though further studies are necessary to confirm this hypothesis.
