1 Caenorhabditis elegans lifespan extension caused by treatment with an orally active ROS-generator is dependent on DAF-16 and SIR-2.1. Reactive Oxygen Species Fork-head domain-containing protein;Forkhead box protein O Caenorhabditis elegans
2 Silencing or deletion of DAF-16 prevented the juglone-induced adaptations. juglone Fork-head domain-containing protein;Forkhead box protein O Caenorhabditis elegans
3 Our studies demonstrate that DAF-16- and SIR-2.1-dependent alterations in gene expression after a ROS challenge lead to a lifespan extension in C. elegans as long as the stressor concentration does not exceed the saturable protective capacity.
