Caffeic Acid Phenethylester Increases Stress Resistance and Enhances Lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans by Modulation of the Insulin-Like DAF-16 Signalling Pathway

CAPE is an active constituent of propolis which is widely used in traditional medicine. This hydroxycinnamic acid derivate is a known activator of the redox-active Nrf2 signalling pathway in mammalian cells. We used C. elegans to investigate the effects of this compound on accumulation of reactive o...
