This study identifies PQM-1 as a stress-responsive transcription factor that promotes proteostasis and organismal survival through a secondary wave stress response mechanism.

This study identifies residues 2-7 of alpha-synuclein as regulators of amyloid formation, showing they slow fibril formation and reduce aggregation in vitro and in vivo without affecting membrane binding.

The paper identifies transcellular chaperone signaling (TCS) as a gut-to-muscle stress response in C. elegans that bypasses HSF-1-mediated heat stress resistance.
