ABSTRACT
Living organisms have always had to cope with harsh environmental conditions and in order to survive, they have developed
complex mechanisms to deal with them. These responses have been assembled in a concept called hormesis, which has
been identified as an evolutionarily conserved process in which a low dose of a stressful stimulus activates an adaptive
response that increases the resistance of the cell or organism to higher stress level. The main hormetic agents identified so
far are irradiation, heat, heavy metals, antibiotics, ethanol, pro-oxidants, exercise and food restriction. The hormetic response
involves the expression of genes that encode cytoprotective proteins such as chaperones like heat-shock proteins, antioxidant
enzymes and growth factors. In this review we will discuss the hormetic response mainly during an oxidative challenge, and
its relationship with senescence and aging, and some related diseases such as diabetes and neurodegeneration.
