Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing
- Observations
- F35E12.7 stimulates the growth of gld-1 tumors. RNA interference increased mean lifespan up to 12% in a gld-1 mutant background and reduced mean lifespan by 8% in wild-type worms.
- % change in avg or median lifespan
- Average lifespan is 8% lower.
