    yata mutation yata mutation shortens the maximum lifespan by 68% and results in progressive deterioration of the nervous tissues and aberrant accumulation of Sec23 [19209226]. Fly -68
    CG3776 underexpression Underexpression of CG3776 (alias Jhebp29) reduces the mean lifespan, where the reduction in males is slightly higher. The lifespan of females and male flies underexpressed CG3776 is reduced by 31.6% and 38.8%, respectively when compared with Oregon R flies [18275960].. Fly -31.6 to -38.8
    l(3)neo18 RNAi Under rich nutritional conditions lifespan of l(3)neo18 (alias CG9762) RNAi knockout animals is indistinguishable from wild-type, while upon DR, lifespan extension is diminished in males and females [19804760]. Fly
    Thor overexpression Ubiquitously overexpression of wild-type Thor (alias d4E-BP) causes no change under AL, but an activated allele (with more than 3-fold increased binding activity to delF4E) significantly extends lifespan of females (weak allele) and females as well as males (strong allele). Mean lifespan is extended by 11 to 40%. Median lifespan of males and females is enhanced by by 11 and 22%, respectively. Maximum lifespan is extended by 16 and 18% for males and females, respectively. Under DR (0.25% YE) there is no lifespan extension, beyond the effect of DR alone, in all (wild-type, weak and strong) Thor alleles [19804760]. Lifespan of animals with increased Pten and 4E-BP activity in muscle exhibit and extended mean and maximum lifespan by 20% and 15.8% [21111239]. Fly +11 to +40 +11 to +22 +16 to +18
    Tsc1 overexpression Ubiquitously overexpression of UAS constructs (via the daughterless (da)-GAL-4 driver) containing dTSC1 extends mean lifespan at 29°C by 14% [15186745]. Fly +14
    Dominant-negative S6k Ubiquitous overexpression of a dominant-negative form of S6k (alias dS6K) increases mean lifespan by 22%. Overexpression of a dominant-negative form of S6k protects mutants from deleterious effects of rich food, as if mimicking the effect of DR [15186745]. Fly +22
    Cbs overexpression Ubiquitous or neuron-specific transgenic overexpression of Cbs enhances longevity in fully-fed animals. Adult-specific ubiquitous expression of Cbs is sufficient to increase female mean and maximum lifespan by 12 - 43% and 10%, respectively. Males, whose lifespan is relatively less affected by DR, exhibite a smaller, but still significant increase in lifespan by 7% upon Cbs overexpression. Neuronal overexpression also increases lifespan, albeit modestly (approximately 12% mean and 15% maximum lifespan extension), whereas overexpression in the fat body and in the gut has no effect [21930912]. Fly +12 to +43 +10 to +15
    rut mutation Two rutabaga mutants, rut1 and rut2080, have significantly shortened lifespans [17369827]. Fly
    Trx-2 mutation Trx-2 mutants have a 25% reduction in maximum lifespan and exhibit lower tolerance to oxidative stress while animals carrying multiple copies of Trx-2 exhibit higher tolerance [17567437]. Fly -25
    GGTI-298 treatment Treatment with type 1 geranylgeranyl transferase inhibitor GGTI-298 increases lifespan [22737247]. Fly
    Simvastin treatment Treatment with simvastin significantly increases the mean and maximum lifespan and enhances cardiac function in aging animals by significantly reducing heart arrhythmias and increasing the contraction proportion o the contraction/relaxation cycle [22737247]. Fly
    Minocycline treatment Treatment with minocycline (0.87mM) prolongs mean, median and maximum lifespan of wild-type (Oregon strain) of both genders. In females mincocycline extend mean and maximum lifespan by 57 and 78%, respectively. In males minocycline results in a mean and maximum lifespan extension by 114 and 28%, respectively [23185716]. Fly +57.1 to +114.3 +28.1 to +78.3
    DATS treatment Treatment with 5-10 μM DATS increases lifespan even when treatment is started during young adulthood. DATS increases the lifespan of daf-2 and daf-16 mutants, but not that of eat-2 mutants. DATS treatment leads to the induction of the skn-1 target gene gst-4 and this induction is dependent on skn-1. DATS effect on lifespan is dependent on skn-1 activity in both intestine and ASI neurons [21296648]. Fly
    Rapamycin treatment Treatment of Drosophila imago with rapamycin induces increases of median (by 5-6%) lifespan (p < 0.01) in males and females, respectively and increase of maximum lifespan (by 33%) in females (p < 0.01) [22661237]. Low dose of LY294002 (5 microM) slightly increase the median and maximum lifespan [20017609]. Fly +5 to +6 +33
    PDTC treatment Treatment of Drosophila imago with PDTC increases median (by 11-13%) and maximum (by 11-14%) lifespan in females and males, respectively [22661237]. Fly +11 to +13 +11 to +14
    LY294002 treatment Treatment of Drosophila imago with 5 micromolar LY294002 increases median (by 14%) and maximum (by 16-22%) lifespan (p<0.001) in females and males, respectively [22661237]. Low dose of LY294002 (5 microM) slightly increase the median and maximum lifespan [20017609]. Fly +14 +16 to +22
    Wortmannin treatment Treatment of Drosophila imago with 0.5 micromolar wortmannin increases median (by 5%) and maximum (by 39%) lifespan in males (p < 0.001), but the lifespan differences in females were statistical insignificant (p > 0.05) [22661237]. Low dose of wortmannin (5 microM) slightly increase the median and maximum lifespan [20017609]. Fly +5 +39
    miR-277 inhibition Transgenic inhibition of miR-277 with a miRNA sponge construct shortens lifespan [23669073]. Fly
    Spargel overexpression Tissue-specific overexpression of dPGC-1 in stem and progenitor cells within the digestive tract of females flies extends the median and maximum lifespan of females by up to 33% and 37%. Those mutants display a delay in the onset of aging-related changes in the intestine, leading to improved tissue homoeostasis in old flies [22055505]. Fly +33 +37
    Cynomorium songaricum supplementation The yang-tonifying herbal medicine cynomorium songaricum Repr. (CS) supplementation to the diet extends both the mean and the maximum lifespan of adult females, but insignificantly that of males. In females, maximum lifespan (determined by the 90th survival percentile) is increased by up to 11.4% with 10 mg/mL CS and 5.7% with both 20 and 30 mg/mL Cs. Mean lifespan is significantly extended by 15, 18 and 11% upon treatment with 10, 20, and 30 mg/mL CS, respectively (all P <0.001). Increased lifespan by CS is correlated with higher resistance to oxidative stress and starvation and lower lipid hydroxyperoxids levels as well as accompanied by beneficial effects, such as improved mating readiness, increased fecundity, and suppresion of age-related learning impairment in aged animals [22844336]. Fly +11 to +18 +5.7 to +11.4
    Edem1 mutation The mean lifespan of Edem1 mutants of both male and female is increased by more than 30% [19302370]. Fly +30
    ovo mutation The dominant ovoD1 allele extends female lifespan by approximately 50%. It does not synergize or prevent life-extension caused by chico [10617470; 11292874]. ovoD1 mutants are sterile [Mevel-Ninio et al. 1991]. Fly +50
    THC treatment Tetrahydocurcumin extends the lifespan and reduces oxidative stress in male and female fruit flies. THC extends lifespan of Drosophila and inhibits the oxidative stress response by regulating *FOXO* and *Sir2* [22156377]. Fly
    Surf1 knockdown Surf1 knockdown results in larval lethality. However, knockdown in the central nervous system (CNS) not only bypasses the larval lethality but it results in an increase in maximum lifespan of about 20-30% [16172499]. Fly +20 to +30
    Apple polyphenol supplementation Supplemention of the diet with apple polyphenol significantly extends mean lifespan by 10% and is accompanied by up-regulation of SOD1, SOD2 and CAT as well as downregulation of MTH in aged animals [21319854]. Fly +10
