longevity

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Winter honeybee (Apis mellifera) populations show greater potential to induce immune response than summer ones after immune stimuli
    Silvie Dostálková, Pavel Dobeš, Martin Kunc, Jana Hurychová, Mária Škrabišová, Marek Petřivalský, Dalibor Titěra, Jaroslav Havlík, Pavel Hyršl, Jiří Danihlík
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 : jeb.232595 doi: 10.1242/jeb.232595 Published 7 December 2020
  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    Nest predation and adult mortality relationships with post-natal metabolic rates and growth among songbird species
    Riccardo Ton, Thomas E. Martin
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb226563 doi: 10.1242/jeb.226563 Published 18 August 2020

    Summary: Does predation increase post-natal metabolism and growth with consequences for adult mortality, thus creating an evolutionary conflict among species? The fact that these sources of mortality show opposite correlations with growth and metabolism may explain how the conflict is avoided.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Effects of membrane fatty acid composition on cellular metabolism and oxidative stress in dermal fibroblasts from small and large breed dogs
    Ana Gabriela Jimenez, Joshua D. Winward, Kenneth E. Walsh, Alex M. Champagne
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb221804 doi: 10.1242/jeb.221804 Published 22 June 2020

    Summary: Fibroblasts from small breed dogs and from both small and large breed dogs treated with oleic acid to decrease membrane saturation have lower maximal and basal oxygen consumption rates, respectively – traits associated with longer lifespans.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Resistance to DNA damage and enhanced DNA repair capacity in the hypoxia-tolerant blind mole rat Spalax carmeli
    Vered Domankevich, Hossam Eddini, Amani Odeh, Imad Shams
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb174540 doi: 10.1242/jeb.174540 Published 20 April 2018

    Highlighted Article: The cells of the blind mole rat Spalax carmeli show enhanced DNA repair capacity and resistance to several genotoxic agents, which may contribute to its longevity and reduced cancer rates.

  • REVIEW
    Current versus future reproduction and longevity: a re-evaluation of predictions and mechanisms
    Yufeng Zhang, Wendy R. Hood
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 3177-3189; doi: 10.1242/jeb.132183

    Summary: This paper critically reviews the effects and physiological mechanisms that reproduction could have on bioenergetic capacity to better understand how a reproductive event could affect future reproduction and/or survival.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Reversibility of developmental heat and cold plasticity is asymmetric and has long-lasting consequences for adult thermal tolerance
    Stine Slotsbo, Mads F. Schou, Torsten N. Kristensen, Volker Loeschcke, Jesper G. Sørensen
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2016 219: 2726-2732; doi: 10.1242/jeb.143750

    Summary: Using Drosophila melanogaster, we show how developmental plasticity of cold tolerance is completely reversible in the adult stage, while adult acclimation in heat tolerance is constrained by developmental temperature.

  • ORGANISMAL STRESS
    Organismal stress, telomeres and life histories
    Pat Monaghan
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2014 217: 57-66; doi: 10.1242/jeb.090043
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    Stress-induced plastic responses in Drosophila simulans following exposure to combinations of temperature and humidity levels
    Oleg A. Bubliy, Torsten N. Kristensen, Volker Loeschcke
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 4601-4607; doi: 10.1242/jeb.092502
  • RESEARCH ARTICLES
    A long life in the fast lane: positive association between peak metabolic rate and lifespan in a butterfly
    Kristjan Niitepõld, Ilkka Hanski
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2013 216: 1388-1397; doi: 10.1242/jeb.080739
