Interspecies relationships of wild amoebae and bacteria with C. elegans create environments propitious for multigenerational diapause.

M. Serey, E. Retamales, G. Ibanez, P. Orio, G. Riadi, J. P. Castillo, A. Calixto

This study shows that a natural ensemble of bacteria and amoebae induces diapause in C. elegans through RNA communication and pheromone signaling, with effects persisting across generations.

The assembly of wild natural isolates define neuronal integrity and life history traits of co-inhabiting C. elegans.

S. Urquiza-Zurich, V. A. Garcia-Angulo, P. Burdisso, M. F. Palominos, L. Fernandez-Hubeid, J. P. Castillo, A. Calixto

This paper studies how combinations of wild bacterial isolates affect the physiological and behavioral traits of C. elegans, identifying NAD+ as a neuroprotective metabolite.

Bacterial small RNAs and host epigenetic effectors of a transgenerational memory of pathogens in C. elegans.

M. E. Legüe, B. Aguila, B. Pollak, A. Calixto

This study identifies bacterial small RNA RsmY and host epigenetic factors SET-18/SMYD3 and SET-25/EHMT2 involved in transgenerational memory of pathogen exposure in C. elegans.

Intergenerational pathogen-induced diapause in C. elegans is modulated by mir-243.

C. Gabaldon, M. Legüe, M. F. Palominos, L. Verdugo, F. Gutzwiller, A. Calixto

This paper identifies mir-243-3p as a small non-coding RNA required for intergenerational pathogen-induced dauer formation in C. elegans, mediated by DAF-16.

Bacterially produced GABA protects neurons from degeneration

A. Urrutia, V. Garcia, A. Fuentes, M. Caneo, M. Legüe, S. Urquiza, J. Ugalde, P. Burdisso, A. Calixto

This study shows that GABA produced by bacteria protects neurons in C. elegans from degeneration, revealing a role for dietary neuroactive compounds in nervous system health.
