Summary Drosophila can be used to discover the underlying molecular mechanisms by which metformin effects lifespan. From 112 tested cohorts, we found metformin can extend fly lifespan as much as 30% but in other conditions the compound equally reduced lifespan. Here we propose to identify genetic factors that contribute to this variation. We will conduct a genome wide association (GWA) analysis with Drosophila, combined with emerging bioinformatic analytics and molecular validation studies. We propose as well, an innovative approach to bridge Drosophila analysis to humans and mice by mapping response SNPs of the fly onto orthologous gene expression data from mammals. We will combine these approaches to resolve how metformin affects aging, and through which pathways it positively or negatively modulates lifespan.

概括 果蝇可用于发现二甲双胍的潜在分子机制 效果寿命。从112个经过测试的队列中，我们发现二甲双胍可以延长飞行寿命 AS为30％，但在其他情况下，化合物同样降低了寿命。在这里我们建议 确定有助于这种变异的遗传因素。我们将进行基因组宽 与果蝇的关联（GWA）分析，结合新兴的生物信息学分析 和分子验证研究。我们也提出了一种创新的桥梁方法 果蝇分析通过将苍蝇的反应SNP映射到直系同源 来自哺乳动物的基因表达数据。我们将结合这些方法来解决如何 二甲双胍会影响衰老，并通过其积极或负面调节的路径 寿命。
