Mutations that extend lifespan are associated with enhanced resistance to stress. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying this relationship, we directly compared lifespan extension, resistance to external stressors, and gene expression in a panel of nine long‐lived Caenorhabditis elegans mutants from different pathways of lifespan extension. All of the examined long‐lived mutants exhibited increased resistance to one or more types of stress. Resistance to each of the examined types of stress had a significant, positive correlation with lifespan, with bacterial pathogen resistance showing the strongest relationship. Analysis of transcriptional changes indicated that all of the examined long‐lived mutants showed a significant upregulation of multiple stress response pathways. Interestingly, there was a very significant overlap between genes highly correlated with stress resistance and genes highly correlated with longevity, suggesting that the same genetic pathways drive both phenotypes. This was especially true for genes correlated with bacterial pathogen resistance, which showed an 84% overlap with genes correlated with lifespan. To further explore the relationship between innate immunity and longevity, we disrupted the p38‐mediated innate immune signaling pathway in each of the long‐lived mutants and found that this pathway is required for lifespan extension in eight of nine mutants. Overall, our results demonstrate a strong correlation between stress resistance and longevity that results from the high degree of overlap in genes contributing to each phenotype. Moreover, these findings demonstrate the importance of the innate immune system in lifespan determination and indicate that the same underlying genes drive both immunity and longevity.
