Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing

Observations
Clock-/- mice have a shorten lifespan and develop two age-specific pathologies - cataracts and dermatitis, at a much higher rate than in wild type mice.
% change in max lifespan
Maximum lifespan is more than 20% lower.
% change in avg or median lifespan
Average lifespan is 15% lower.
Lifespan Effect
Decrease
