Thermotolerance of a long-lived mutant of Caenorhabditis elegans.

Journal of gerontology - 1 Nov 1994

Lithgow G J, White T M, Hinerfeld D A, Johnson T E

Abstract excerpt

Age-synchronous cohorts of Caenorhabditis elegans were grown at 20 degrees C, then stressed at 30 degrees C or 35 degrees C. Intrinsic thermotolerance of wild type and age-1 mutant strains was assessed by measuring either progeny production or survival. In addition to increased life span (Age), mutation of age-1 results in a highly significant increased intrinsic thermotolerance (Itt) as measured by survival at...
