Environmental NaCl affects C. elegans development and aging

Franziska Pohl, Brian M. Egan, Daniel L. Schneider…·Kerry Kornfeld

This study shows that NaCl in standard C. elegans growth medium accelerates aging and reduces lifespan, with toxicity increasing with age and activating stress response pathways.
