The goal was to find genes which are differentially expressed between the naked mole-rat (Heterocephalus glaber) and the wild-type mice liver tissue. The genes which are most differentially expressed may provide a clue for the remarkable differences between naked mole-rat and mouse in terms of longe...
ORGANISM(S): Heterocephalus glaber 
Background: Comparison of temporal gene expression profiles (www.jenage.de) The RNA-seq data comprises 5 age groups: 5,12,20,27,39 weeks 25 samples: 5 biological replicates for each age group
ORGANISM(S): Nothobranchius furzeri 
So far, the annotation of translation initiation sites (TISs) has been based mostly upon bioinformatics rather than experimental evidence. We adapted ribosomal footprinting to puromycin-treated cells to generate a transcriptome-wide map of TISs in a human monocytic cell line. A neural network was tr...
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
Background: Arsenite is one of the most toxic chemical substances known and is assumed to exert detrimental effects on viability even at lowest concentrations. By contrast and unlike higher concentrations, we here find that exposure to low-dose arsenite promotes growth of cultured mammalian cells. I...
ORGANISM(S): Caenorhabditis elegans 
Background: We here show that inhibitors of mitochondrial complex I promote physical activity, stress resistance as well as lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans despite normal food uptake, i.e. in the absence of DR. Dietary restriction (DR) extends lifespan and promotes metabolic health in evolutionar...

Sirtuins, a family of histone deacetylases, have a fiercely debated role in regulating lifespan of different species. Contrasting recent observations, we here find that overexpression of sir-2.1, the orthologue of mammalian SirT1, does extend C. elegans lifespan. Sirtuins are known to convert NAD+ i...

Quiescent MRC-5 fibroblasts were compared to young fibroblasts 6 samples: 3 biological replicates for each age group: young and quiescent MRC-5 cells. 50bp, single-end reads, no strand-specific reads

D-Glucosamine (2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucose, C.A.S.# 3416-24-8) (GlcN) is a freely available and commonly used dietary supplement possibly promoting cartilage health in humans which also acts as an inhibitor of glycolysis. We here find that GlcN extends C. elegans lifespan by impairing glucose metaboli...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Background: C. elegans fed with a chemical inhibitor of glucose, namely 2-deoxy-D-glucose (DOG), exhibit considerably extended life span. DOG, in contradiction to D-glucose, cannot be metabolized in the glycolytic pathway. This results in the fact that less glucose is available for ATP production, a...
