Astaxanthin Regulates ROS-mediated Autophagy to Prolong Lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans
The present study was carried on assess the lifespan extension of Caenorhabditis elegans (C.elegans) by astaxanthin (AST) and its related molecular mechanisms.The effect of AST on the lifespan of wild-type (WT) Acoustic Phosphor Bronze nematodes was observed, the relative expression of antioxidant (sod-3, ctl-1) and autophagy-related genes (bec-1,
