Divergent Retrograde Signaling Pathways Coordinate Longevity and Metformin Responses in Complex I and Complex IV Deficient C. elegans

This study shows that Complex I and Complex IV deficiencies in C. elegans activate distinct retrograde signaling pathways for longevity and metformin response, challenging the uniformity of mitohormesis.

Prediction of biological age by morphological staging of sarcopenia in Caenorhabditis elegans

The paper develops an automated image analysis pipeline to quantify sarcopenia in C. elegans and establishes a model predicting biological age based on morphological muscle features.

A multi-parent recombinant inbred line population of Caenorhabditis elegans enhances mapping resolution and identification of novel QTLs for complex life-history traits

This study develops a multi-parent recombinant inbred line population of C. elegans to improve QTL mapping resolution and identify novel QTLs for life-history traits.

Royalactin induces copious longevity via increased translation and proteasome activity in C. elegans.

This study shows royalactin extends C. elegans lifespan by increasing protein translation and proteasome activity, suggesting a new mechanism for longevity.
