| sdhC dominant negative overexpression | Mutants expressing a dominant negative form of sdhC in the nervous system have a 22% reduced mean lifespan and signs of oxidative stress induction [17854771]. | Fly | -22 | — | — |
| Sod overexpression | Simultaneous overexpression of catalase and Sod (alias Sod1) results in a one-third lifespan extension, a slower rate of mortality acceleration, and a delayed loss in physical performance, but neither has any effect on lifespan alone [8108730]. General overexpression of Sod (also known as Cu/ZnSOD) alone is sufficient to extend lifespan by up to 48%. Simultaneous overexpression of catalase with Cu/ZnSOD has no added benefit, presumably due to a pre-existing excess of catalase [9858546]. | Fly | +38 | — | — |
| Sod2 overexpression | Overexpression of Sod2 by 5-115% decreases lifespan by 4-5% without any compensatory changes in metablic rate, level of physical activity, or the levels of other antioxidants (Sod, Cat, and glutathione) [10545213]. Targeted overexpression of Sod2 in motor neurons alone extends lifespan by 30% [11113599]. Induced overexpression of Sod2 in adult animals extends lifespan up to 37% [12072463]. Overexpression of catalase in combination with SOD2 has no added benefit for lifespan [12072463]. Animals overexpressing SOD2 or catalase do not exhibit a decrease in metabolism as measured by oxgen consumption [12072463].
Sod2 overexpression results in a 20% increase in mean and maximum lifespan [18067683]. | Fly | +20 to +37 | — | +20 |

The lifespan extension effect is more pronounced in males than in females. Additional maximum lifespan is also extended. The maximum lifespan is increased by 50% and 59% for females and males, respectively. The median lifespan is extended by 46 and 77% for females and males, respectively [22661237]. | Fly | — | — | — |

Ubiquitous or a targeted expression of Hsp22 within motorneurons increases the mean lifespan by more than 30%. Hsp22 shows beneficial effects on early-aging events since the premortality phase displays the same increase as the mean lifespan [14734639].

| Jafrac1 overexpression | Neuronal overexpression of Jafrac1 significantly increases both mean and maximum lifespan, while neuronal knockdown as well as loss of function mutation, causes a reduction in lifespan by 30%. The mean lifespan is 26% and 29% higher in females and males, respectively. The maximum lifespan is increased by 22% and 26% in females and males, respectively [19720829].
There is a consistent and significant lifespan extension (15% mean lifespan increase) in both males and females when Jafrac1 is overexpressed in somatic cells. Jafrac1 overexpression using the weaker 5961FS driver moderately but significantly extends lifespan [20976250]. | Fly | +15 to +29 | +22 to +26 | — |
