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.

总结 果蝇可用于发现二甲双胍 影响寿命。从112个测试的队列中，我们发现二甲双胍可以延长苍蝇的寿命， 但在其他条件下，该化合物同样缩短了寿命。在此，我们建议 确定导致这种变异的遗传因素。我们将进行全基因组的 关联（GWA）分析与果蝇，结合新兴的生物信息学分析 和分子验证研究。我们还提出了一种创新的方法， 通过将果蝇的反应SNPs定位到orthophosphate上来分析人类和小鼠的果蝇 来自哺乳动物的基因表达数据。我们将联合收割机结合这些方法来解决如何 二甲双胍影响衰老，以及它通过哪些途径进行积极或消极调节 寿命
