Extra chromosomal array <i>dhEx627</i> (carrying a wild-type <i>nhr-62</i>) in <i>eat-2;nhr-62</i> resulted in a significant increase in lifespan compared to both <i>nhr-62(tm1818)</i> and <i>eat-2;nhr-62</i> mutants (p<0.001). (B) Wild-type (N2) worms with <i>dhEx627</i> exhibited a significant increase in lifespan compared to wild-type (p<0.001).

(C,D) Both wild-type (N2) and <i>nhr-62(tm1818)</i> worms fed <i>daf-2</i> RNAi or <i>cco-1</i> RNAi had a significant increase in lifespan when compared to controls (p<0.001). (E) BDR curve for wild-type (N2) and <i>nhr-62(tm1818)</i> worms. The lifespan of wild-type and <i>nhr-62(tm1818)</i> were not different at the three most concentrated food dilutions, but were significantly different at the remaining 7 dilutions (p<0.001). (F) Survivorship curves for wild-type (N2) and <i>nhr-62(tm1818)</i> fed either 6.45×10<sup>8</sup> CFU/ml or 3.23×10<sup>8</sup> CFU/ml. p-values calculated by the log-rank test.</p> 2013-07-25 02:12:22 genetics gene expression RNA interference Animal genetics Gene function Genetic screens Model organisms Animal models Caenorhabditis elegans Population biology aging regulates dr-induced
