    car mutation Loss-of-function mutation in car results in reduction of mean lifespan by 34 - 53% and maximum lifespan by 28 - 29% [17435236]. Fly -34 to -53 -28 to -29
    Cat overexpression Simultaneous overexpression of catalase and Sod1 results in a one-third (i.e. 30%) lifespan extension, a slower rate of mortality acceleration, and a delayed loss in physical performance, but neither has any effect on lifespan alone [8108730]. Targeted overexpression of CAT in the mitochondrial matrix has no effect on lifespan at 25 degree Celsius, slightly shortens lifespan at 29 degree Celsius as is associated with increased resistance to endogenous hydrogen peroxide, paraquat, and cold stress [12521602]. Fly
    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
    Cbs RNAi Cbs RNAi partially abrogates increased lifespan by DR, but has no effect on fully fed animals. Cbs upregulation is required for increased lifespan under low-nutrient conditions. Response of male flies to DR is muted in comparison with females [21930912]. Fly
    Cct1 overexpression Overexpression of Cct1 from a doxycycline-inducible promoter results in a 6 - 8% increase in mean lifespan (in the PdL x rtTA; Oregon-R x rtTA strain) [12620118]. Fly +6 to +8
    Cdk5 mutation Cdk5 loss-of-function mutations result in defective axon guidance, age-dependent behavioral deficits and reduced lifespan by about one third [17368005]. Fly
    cert mutation CG7207 mutants exhibit a shortened lifespan accompanied by enhanced oxidative damage to cellular proteins and metabolic compromise, such as increasing glucose levels, reminiscent of premature aging [17592126]. Fly
    CG10383 overexpression Overexpression of CG10383 in males increases mean and maximum lifespan by 12% and 8%, respectively [22366109]. Fly +12 +8
    CG10916 overexpression Overexpression of CG10916 in males increases mean and maximum lifespan by 27% and 26%, respectively [22366109]. Fly +27 +26
    CG13890 overexpression Overexpression of CG13890 (DCI) throughout the whole body increases mean and median lifespan by 35 and 31%, but decreases maximum lifespan by 6%, increases stress resistant (to paraquat and starvation), consistently reduces the mortality rate across adult ages and reduces the lifespan extension of DR by 15% [22997544]. CG6783 overexpression increases the dFOXO nuclear localization in the fat-body. mRNA levels of dFOXO target genes l(2)efl and 4E-BP in the adult whole bodies increases in response to overexpression of CG6783 [22997544]. Fly +35 +31 +6
    CG17856 RNAi RNAi of CG17856 results in an increase in mean lifespan of 13-18% in females. In the case of males and post-developmental experiments the results are variable [19747824]. Fly +13 to +18
    CG18809 RNAi RNAi of CG18809 results in a 7-19% increase in mean lifespan of females, while neural RNAi results in an increased mean lifespan of up to 12% in females. For males the results are variable [19747824]. Fly +7 to +19
    CG30427 overexpression Overexpression of CG30427 in males increases mean lifespan by 18% [22366109]. Fly +18
    CG3776 overexpression Overexpression of CG3776 (alias Jhebp29) reduces the mean lifespan, where the reduction in males is slightly higher. The lifespan of female and male flies with overexpressed CG3776 is reduced by 35% and 42.6%, respectively when compared with Oregon R flies [18275960]. Fly -35 to -42.6
    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
    CG4389 knockdown Muscle specific RNAi knockdown of CG489 which reduces its mRNA levels by 25-35%, significantly reduces the DR-dependent lifespan extension. CG4389 RNAi animals exhibit only 20% increase while controls display an lifespan increase by 123% upon DR [22768842]. Fly
    CG5389 RNAi RNAi of complex V subunit CG5389 results in increased mean longevity under standard laboratory food conditions (3% yeast) in males. RNAi started from the development results in a mild lifespan increase in both sexes (3-11% in females and 3-8% in males). Post-developmental RNAi and silencing limited to neurons has variable effects with reduction in lifespan of up to 9% [19747824]. Under rich media conditions CG5389 knockdown throughout development and adulthood increases mean lifespan by 26% and abolished the lifespan extension by DR (started in the adulthood) in males. Suppression of CG5389 only during the adulthood either via RNAi by tub-GS or via oligomycin (a specific inhibitor of complex V) feeding prevents an increase in longevity under DR (started in the adulthood) in males [19968629]. Fly -9 to +26
    CG7834 knockdown Muscle specific RNAi knockdown of CG7834 which reduces its mRNA levels by 25-35%, significantly reduces the DR-dependent lifespan extension. CG7834 RNAi animals exhibit only a 14% increase compared to the 55% lifespan-increase in controls upon DR [22768842]. Fly
    CG9172 RNAi RNAi against CG9172 increases mean lifespan in females by up to 4-12% when applied in both development and adulthood, and up to 46% when applied in adult neurons only. For males the effect is variable [19747824]. Fly +4 to +46
    cher overexpression Overexpression of cher from a doxycycline-inducible promoter results in a 7 - 9% increase in mean lifespan (in PdL x rtTA; Oregon-R x rtTA) [12620118]. Fly +7 to +9
    cm mutation Loss-of-function mutation in cm reduces mean lifespan by 43 - 53% and maximum lifespan by 40 - 44% [17435236]. Fly -43 to -53 -40 to -44
    Cold temperature A reduction of the environmental temperature form 25 to 18 degree Celsius increases mean and maximum lifespan by 108 and 62% in Canton-S male [8582611]. Fly +108 +62
    Constitutive active S6k overexpression Overexpression of a constitutively active form of S6k (alias dS6K) decreases mean lifespan by 34% at 29°C [15186745]. Fly -34
    Constitutive miR-277 expression Constitutive miR-277 expression shortens lifespan and synthetically lethal with reduced insulin signaling, indicating that metabolic control underlies this phenotype [23669073]. Fly
    Curcumin treatment In fruit fly, 0.5 an 1.0 mg/g curcumin in the diet increases mean lifespan by 6.2 and 25% in females and by 15.5 and 12.6 in males, respectively. Lifespan extension by curcumin was associated with the increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, upregulation of Ms-SOD and CuZn-SOD genes, and the downregulation of *dInR*, *ATTD*, *Def*, *CecB* and, *DptB* genes as well as reduction of lipofuscin, malondialdehyde and lipid peroxidation [22653297; 23325575]. Curcumin prolongs life and enhances activity of fruit fly Alzheimer diseased flies [22348084]. Fly +6.2 to +25
