Disease_model_descriptionIncreased expression of grh-1 positively regulates nematode lifespan and impacts insulin signaling; murine and human orthologs are also indicated to do so based on correlative data from genome-wide association studies. Small-molecule compounds, including the FDA-approved phytochemical papaverine, are identified as human GRHL1 activators, capable of extending nematode lifespan through GRH-1.
