Abstract excerpt
Astaxanthin (AX) is a xanthophyll carotenoid that can effectively inhibit the production of peroxides and thereby protect the body from oxidative damage. In recent years, AX had been shown to have anti-aging properties, both in vivo and in vitro. However, the underlying mechanisms by which AX regulates senescence related proteins and signaling pathways remain unclear. Therefore, we used Caenorhabditis elegans (C....
