14-3-3epsilon | CG31196 gene product from transcript CG31196-RA | Loss of 14-3-3ε results in increased stress-induced apoptosis, growth repression and extended lifespan of flies, in a foxo-dependent manner. Mean lifespan of males and females is increased by 25% and 49%, respectively. Increased 14-3-3ε expression also reverts foxo-induced growth defects. No effect of lifespan is observed when overexpressing 14-3-3ε in adipose tissue, indicating that endogenous foxo activity in this tissue is low under normal conditions [18665908]. | Fruit fly |

2-ME | 2-Mercaptoethanol | Animals fed a diet supplemented with 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) exhibit an increased mean and maximum lifespan [6334792].
T-cell-dependent immune responses are higher in the 2-ME-fed mice compared to the controls when the animals are young. The accumulation of fluorescent products of lipid peroxidation damage is also delayed in the lymphocytes of the 2-ME-fed mice and tumor onset and incidence is reduced in these animals [6334792]. | House mouse |
2-MEA | 2-Mercaptoethylanime hydrochloride | Addition of 1% by weight 2-MEA to the diet of male LAF mice, started shortly after weaning, increases average lifespan by approximately 30%, but does not extend maximum lifespan [5723482; 11795501].
Addition of 2-MEA to the maternal diet of female mice increases the lifespan of male and female offspring by 15 and 8%, respectively [Harman & Eddy, 1979; 11795501].
Addition of 2-MEA of an antioxidant mixture containing ethoxyquin and 2-MEA to the diet of dietary restricted mice shortens lifespan approximately 20% [2394907].

aak-2 | AMP-Activated Kinase 2 | AAK-2 could be a sensor that couples energy levels and insulin-like signals to lifespan. aak-2(ok524) knockout mutants have a 12% and 18% shorter mean and maximum lifespan, respectively as well as faster age-dependent accumulation of a lipofuscin-like fluorescent pigment in the intestine [15574588]. sDR increases AMP:ATP ratio. aak-2 mutation suppresses lifespan extension and delay of the decline in locomotor activity resulting from sDR. A constitutive active mutation of aak-2 is sufficient to cause increase stress resistance as well as to significantly extend lifespan. Both increased stress resistance and extended lifespan is reverted in daf-16 knockdown by RNAi. sod-3 mRNA is increased by constitutive active form of aak-2 and decreased by aak-2 mutation. The increase in sod-3 mRNA is dependent on expression of DAF-16. Worm and human AMPK phosphorylate DAF-16 (greatly enhanced by presence of AMP) at least in six residues (T166, S202, S314, S321, T463 and S466) [17900900]. aak-2 mutation cancels out the lifespan extension effect of sDR and PD, regardless of the concentration of bacteria or peptones. bDR significantly extends lifespan of aak-2 mutants, but to lesser extent than that of wild-type. eat-2 mutation extends the lifespan of aak-2 mutants to the same extent than that of wild-type. Resveratrol does not increase lifespan of aak-2 mutants [19239417]. daf-2(m577);aak-2(ok524) double mutant has a lifespan that is indistinguishable from those of aak-2(ok524) single mutant. Transgenic animals with a higher aak-2 gene dose live on average 13% longer with a maximum lifespan extension on up to 25% [15574588]. | Nematode |
