No, as when I grow, I grow heirlooms. I avoid all the GMO'd things that I can!
Since mice live about 2 years, a 30% longevity increase isn't that impressive to me. Plus, if I were a lab mouse, I would just as soon get it over with.
I bet the seeds will be expensive, and being GMO, doesn't that mean one and done for the seed? Could you save the seeds and plant and actually get "fruit" like with an heirloom, as I know with hybrids, you cannot.
REad the second article. It says you can save the seeds and grow more plants.
I want to know how it tastes? Because if it doesn't taste good, I won't waste my time or money. Seeds are $20 for 10, wonder if plants will be available?
I grew purple tomatoes a few years ago that I'm pretty sure were not GMO. Indigo something. I forget who I bought them from. They tasted fine but I'd rather eat blueberries if I'm after some sort of antioxidant. There are definitely better tasting tomatoes out there (including Cherokee Purple).

no one cares if a mouse lives longer. the implication is that it could do the same for humans. you wouldn't want to live to 104 instead of 80?
and yes, you can legally save and propage these seeds, that's another first.
I can't help but think of the Simpsons when Homer grew "Tomacco".
