Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing

Observations
Some of the apy-1 (RNAi) phenotypes are suggestive of premature aging, since these animals also showed accumulation of lipofuscin and reduced maximal lifespan (by 30%)
% change in max lifespan
Maximum lifespan is 30% lower.
Lifespan Effect
Decrease
Genetic Manipulation
RNA interference post development
Longevity Category
Pro-Longevity
