Rhodiola rosea and Salidroside commonly induce hormesis, with particular focus on longevity and neuroprotection

Chem Biol Interact. 2023 May 9:110540. doi: 10.1016/j.cbi.2023.110540. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe biological effects of Rhodiola rosea extracts and one of its major constituents, Salidroside, were evaluated for their capacity to induce hormesis/hormetic effects. The findings indicate that the Rhodiola rosea extracts and Salidroside commonly induce hormetic dose responses within a broad range of biological models, cell types and across a broad range of endpoints, with particular emphasis on longevity and neuroprotective endpoints. This paper represents the first integrative documentation and assessment of Rhodiola rosea extracts and Salidroside induction of hormetic effects. These findings have important biomedical applications and should have an important impact with respect to critical study design, dose selection and other experimental features.PMID:37169278 | DOI:10.1016/j.cbi.2023.110540
