- Population
- American of Japanese origin
- Study Design
- Nested case-control design was used in 213 longevity phenotype subjects (80-93 y, 85.6±3.1) and 402 controls (71-79 y, 74.6±2.1) to identify the association between genetic variation in insulin/IGF-1 signaling genes and longevity
- Conclusions
- No association was found between genetic variation in any of the tested genes and longevity in American men of Japanese ancestry
