Potential relevance to longevity and/or ageing

Observations
An increase in mean and maximal lifespan was observed for both male and female flies. The lifespan extension was reversed in Sir2 mutants, suggesting that the extension is Sir2 dependent.
% change in max lifespan
Maximum lifespan is up to 30% higher.
% change in avg or median lifespan
Average lifespan is up to 30% higher; Maximum lifespan is up to 30% higher.
