Akh overexpression

Species: Fruit fly (Taxid: 7227)
Factor: Akh
Manipulation: Gain-of-Function, Overexpression
Effect:

Overexpression of Akh in a ubiquitousness manner enhances fat metabolism (significant increase in triglyceride synthesis and breakdown under AL), spontaneous activity (148% on AL and 154% on DR), and lifespan on AL (33%). However, despite and increase in movement under DR, lifespan is not increased under a restricted diet [22768842].

Median: +33
