Across metazoans, lifespan varies greatly, not only among species but also within the same species. Much effort has been devoted to discovering genetic and abiotic factors associated with longevity in humans, and many lifespan-extending perturbations in model organisms like C.…

Network analysis in aged C. elegans reveals candidate regulatory genes of ageing
Aging is an inevitable process in most multicellular organism that is regulated by both genetic and environmental factors. Multiple pathways have been discovered using the nematode species Caenorhabditis elegans which were then shown to be conserved in other higher eukaryotes.…
