Carnosol Improved Lifespan and Healthspan by Promoting Antioxidant Capacity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Figure 3

Effects of carnosol on the lifespan of C. elegans. (a) Survival curves of N2 worms treated with the control or carnosol are shown. The lifespan of 180 μM carnosol-treated nematodes was significantly prolonged compared with that of control nematodes. (b) Survival curves of carnosol-treated or untreated worms exposed to acute oxidative stress in the days after induction by paraquat (from the sixth day of the life cycle). (c) Survival curves of carnosol-treated or untreated worms in the hours after exposure to high temperatures (from the time of exposure to high temperature stress).
