| puc mutation | Heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in puc (either pucA241.1 or pucE69) significantly extend median and maximum lifespan and increase resistance to oxidative stress. Heterzyogosity for puc only modestly extends lifespan in animals carrying a hypomorphic allele of the JNK kinase hep [14602080].
puc heterzyogotes do not differ signficantly from wild-type for body size, reproductive activity or developmental timing, but exhibit increased resistance to oxidative stress and starvation [14602080]. | Fly | — | — | — |

| Trichostatin A supplementation | Histone deacetylase inhibitor Trichostatin A (TSA) extends the lifespan of Drosophila melanogaster by promoting the hsp22 gene transcription, and affecting the chromatin morphology at the locus of hsp22 gene along the polytene chromosome [15346199].
hsp70 and hsp22 RNA levels are higher in long-lived than in short-lived fly lines. The HDAC inhibitor TSA causes a higher expression of hsp22 and hsp70, and strikingly influences the lifespan in both long and short-lived lines, with variable degrees (up to 25%) [15695762]. | Fly | +25 | — | — |

| Lnk mutation | Loss of Lnk function results in increased median (14% in females and 17.5 in males) and maximum lifespan, reduced female fecundity and improves survival under conditions of oxidative stress and starvation. Heterozygousity does not result in any significant differences in lifespan in either males or females. Moreover, lifespan extension in one of the female homozygous mutant is fully rescued by the introduction of a Lnk genomic rescue construct [20333234]. | Fly | — | -14 to -17.5 | — |
| Loco mutation | Reduced expression of Loco due to hetero-deficient results in a 17-20% longer mean lifespan for both male and females, besides the fact that the homozygous deficiency of loco is lethal. Several of these long-lived mutants are more resistant to stresses such as starvation, oxidation ad heat. Additional mutant have higher Manganese-containing superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) activity, increased fat content an diminished cAMP levels. Loco RGS domain is required for the regulation of longevity as deletion analysis suggest [21776417]. | Fly | +17 to +20 | — | — |
