Moreover, 68 PSGs were both down-regulated in the long-lived naked mole-rat and up-regulated in the short-lived rat during aging ( Fig 2 ), resulting in a highly significant preference for quadrant I (down in naked mole-rat, up in rat; p = 0.0017, one-sided fisher test, quadrant I against the sum of II, III, IV).

Regarding only the 68 PSGs that were down-regulated in naked mole-rat and up-regulated during rat aging (quadrant I, Fig 2 ), “cellular respiration” showed a significant (p = 2.4*10 −7 ) and “translation” a borderline significant enrichment (p = 0.10; S23 Table ).
