| Simvastatin | 8.23±0.05a |

Newly eclosed Drosophila were maintained for 12 days at 25°C with medium containing either an equal volume of vehicle, 2.4 mM simvastatin, 320 µM methoprene, 20 µM L744832, or 300 µM GGTI-298. Groups of 10 flies were anesthetized with CO2, immediately removed from the flybottles, and weighed (n = 12).

Column values with the same superscript letters are not significantly different, as determined by one way ANOVA. See Materials and Methods for specifics regarding the studies.
