RESUMO

Studies of longevity rely on baseline life expectancy of reference genotypes measured in standardized conditions. Variation among labs, protocols, and genotypes makes longevity intervention studies difficult to compare. Furthermore, extending lifespan under suboptimal conditions or that of a short-lived genotype may be of a lesser theoretical and translational value than extending the maximal possible lifespan. Daphnia is becoming a model organism of choice for longevity research complementing data obtained on traditional models. In this study, we report longevity of several genotypes of a long-lived species D. magna under a variety of protocols, aiming to document the highest lifespan, factors reducing it, and parameters that change with age and correlate with longevity. Combining longevity data from 25 experiments across two labs, we report a strong intraspecific variation, moderate effects of group size and medium composition, and strong genotype-by-environment interactions with respect to food level. Specifically, short-lived genotypes show no caloric restriction (CR) effect, while long-lived ones expand their lifespan even further under CR. We find that the CR non-responsive clones show little correlation between longevity and two measures of lipid peroxidation. In contrast, the long-lived, CR-responsive clones show a positive correlation between longevity and lipid hydroperoxide abundance, and a negative correlation with MDA concentration. This indicates differences among genotypes in age-related accumulation and detoxification of LPO products and their effects on longevity. Our observations support the hypothesis that a long lifespan can be affected by CR and levels of oxidative damage, while genetically determined short lifespan remains short regardless.
