    faah-1 overexpression faah-1 overexpression reduces eicosapentaenoyl ethanolamide (EPEA), palmitoleyol ethanolamide, linoleyol ethanolamide, as well as arachidonoyl ethanolamide (AEA) levels, delays development, increases thermal stress resistance, and was associated with mean and maximum adult lifespan extension by 19 and 35%, respectively, in presence of abundant food but not under (two different protocols of) DR. Overexpression in pharynx was largely sufficient for this lifespan extension [21562563]. Worm +19 +35
    trx-1 overexpression trx-1 overexpression extends lifespan in wild-type but not in eat-2 mutants. Ectopic expression of trx-1 in ASJ neurons (but not in the intestine) in trx-1 mutants rescues the lifespan-extension conferred by eat-2 mutation. trx-1 overexpression extends lifespan of wild-type but not in eat-2 mutants. trx-1 deletion almost completely suppresses lifespan extension induced by dietary deprivation (DD). DD upregulates trx-1 expression in ASJ neurons. DR activates trx-1 in ASJ neurons which in turn triggers a trx-1-dependent non-cell autonomous mechanism to extend adult lifespan [21334311]. Worm
    daf-16 overexpression Overexpression of wild-type DAF-16 modestly increases lifespan by 20% [11747825]. Worm +20
    Overexpression of constitutive nuclear SKN-1 skn-1 transgenes that overexpress a constitutive nuclear form of SKN-1 in the intestine extend the mean lifespan by 5-21%, independently of DAF-16 [18358814]. Worm +5 to +21
    sir-2.1 overexpression sir-2.1 overexpression extends lifespan by about 50% and this lifespan extension depends on DAF-16 activity as it is suppressed by mutation in daf-16 and it does not synergize with daf-2 [11242085]. Overrexpression of sir-2.1 synergizes with TGF-beta mutation (daf-4 and daf-1) for dauer formation [11242085]. Worm +50
    pha-4 overexpression pha-4 overexpression increases longevity of wild-type only slightly, but significant that of daf-16 mutants [17476212]. Worm
    Overexpression of constitutive nuclear DAF-16 Overexpression of constitutive nuclear forms of DAF-16 increases lifespan only slightly [11381260]. Worm
    clk-1 overexpression Overexpression of clk-1 shortens lifespan and is associated with increased mitochondrial activity [10202142]. Worm
    age-1 RNAi RNAi against age-1 extends lifespan by 30% [8700226; 8608934]. age-1 RNAi increases mean and maximum lifespan by 36-46% and 48-50% [12447374]. RNAi against age-1 increases mean lifespan by 83% [18828672]. age-1(mg44) zygotic null mutants have a mean (99%) and maximum (117%) lifespan extension [18828672]. Worm +36 to +99 +48 to +117
    aak-2 constitutive active mutation 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 [17900900]. Worm
    aak-2 overexpression Transgenic animals with a higher aak-2 gene dose live on average 13% longer with a maximum lifespan extension on up to 25% [15574588]. Worm +13 +25
    tdp-1 overexpression tdp-1 overexpression strains have a reduced lifespan at 20 and 25 degree Celsius [Vaccaro et al. 2012]. Worm
    Coq7 overexpression Transgenic overexpression of mouse Coq7 reverts the extended lifespan of clk-1 mutants [11511092]. Worm
    abu-11 overexpression Overexpression of abu-11 extends mean lifespan by 9% to 28% [16256736]. Worm +9 to +28
    cst-1 overexpression Overexpression of cst-1 extends lifespan and delays aging in a daf-16-dependent manner [16751106]. Worm
    SIR-2.4 overexpression Overexpression of SIR-2.4 does not change the mean or maximum lifespan of wild-type nor the ncreased lifespan of daf-2(e1370) mutants [Tishkoff et al. 2012]. Worm
    lin-14 gain-of-function mutation A gain-of-function mutation in lin-14 decreases lifespan [16373574]. Worm
    jnk-1 overexpression Overexpression of jnk-1 increases lifespan by 40% [15767565; 23097426]. JNK-1 overexpression extends the lifespan in a daf-16-dependent manner. JNK-1 overexpression does not extend the lifespan of animals unable to synthesize miRNAs, i.e. pash-1(mj100) [23097426]. Worm +40
    lin-4 overexpression Overexpressing lin-4 extends lifespan [16373574]. Worm
    mir-71 overexpression Gain-of-function of mir-71 increases lifespan [21129974]. Extra copies of mir-71 extend the lifespan with an increase in lifespan by 15 - 25% [22482727], Worm +15 to +25
    mir-246 overexpression mir-246 overexpression increases mean and maximum lifespan by 6 and 5 - 14%, respectively [21129974]. Worm +6.3 +4.8 to +14.3
    mir-239 overexpression Overexpressing mir-239 decreases mean and maximum lifespan by 13 and 17 - 33%, respectively [21129974]. Worm -13 -17 to -33
    nhr-62 Overexpression Wild-type (N2) worms with extrachromosomal array dhEx627 (carrying a wild-type nhr-62) exhibit a significant increase in lifespan compared to wild-type (p<0.001) [Heestand et al. 2013]. Worm
    wwp-1 overexpression wwp-1 overexpression extends lifespan by up to 20%. RNAi reduction of pha-4, but not of daf-16 suppresses increased longevity by wwp-1 overexpression [19553937]. Worm +20
    sod1 overexpression Overexpression of sod1 increases mean, median, and maximum lifespan by 21, 25, and 29% [22737090]. Worm +23 +25 +44
