Hey decreases aging phenotypes in flies (continued Hey expression in enterocytes).
“aging phenotypes were suppressed by continued expression of Hey in ECs”

Hey is required for enterocyte identity and nuclear organization in flies (Hey-deficient enterocytes).
“Lineage tracing established that Hey-deficient ECs are unable to maintain their unique nuclear organization and identity”
