Abstract
Hormesis is a dose-response phenomenon, usually present in plants and animals, characterized by a low-dose stimulation and high-dose inhibition, often resulting in typical U-shaped or J-shaped curves. Hormesis has become an interesting model for toxicology and risk assessment, as it has been described for several nature-derived phytochemicals but also because this adaptive response to stressors might hide an underlying more general behaviour of cell towards low doses.
