Longevity-promoting interventions prevent age-dependent ectopic fat deposition. A: The rate of ectopic lipid content in the pharynx of wild-type animals is significantly increased compared with eat-2(ad465), daf-2(e1370), and glp-1(e2141) mutants during aging. The division of THG signal values, at day 1 and day 9, by the day 1 THG signal values of each strain, respectively, depicts the rate of ectopic lipid content. B: Quantification of lipid droplet sizes in long-lived animals during aging. n = 12 for each genetic background and time point. NS, P > 0.05, *** P < 0.001, one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey HSD post hoc test; error bars denote standard error of the mean.
