Hydralazine induces stress resistance and extends C. elegans lifespan by activating the NRF2/SKN-1 signalling pathway

Hydralazine is an FDA approved drug for the treatment of hypertension. Here, Dehghan et al. report that hydralazine triggers the cellular oxidative stress response by activating NRF2/SKN-1 signaling and extends C. elegans healthy lifespan, suggesting hydralazine may have potential to treat age-assoc...
