Neuronal CBP-1 is required for enhanced body muscle proteostasis in response to reduced translation downstream of mTOR

This study shows that reducing translation in neurons or germline in C. elegans enhances muscle proteostasis and resilience to stress by increasing heat shock gene expression and muscle regulatory gene expression.

Dietary restriction induces post-transcriptional regulation of longevity genes.

This study identifies post-transcriptional mechanisms regulating longevity in C. elegans under dietary restriction, highlighting roles for RNA binding proteins, microRNA, and nonsense mediated decay.
