Sleep, aging, and lifespan in Drosophila.

BMC neuroscience - 29 Apr 2010

Bushey Daniel, Hughes Kimberly A, Tononi Giulio, Cirelli Chiara

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Epidemiological studies in humans suggest that a decrease in daily sleep duration is associated with reduced lifespan, but this issue remains controversial. Other studies in humans also show that both sleep quantity and sleep quality decrease with age. Drosophila melanogaster is a useful model to study aging and sleep, and inheriting mutations affecting the potassium current Shaker results in flies...
