This study shows that a defined microbial community remodels host metabolism and pathogen resistance in C. elegans by altering transcriptional pathways and physiological traits.

This study identifies a gut microbiota-muscle axis in C. elegans that protects against age-related motor decline by regulating mitochondrial fission through DRP-1.

This paper introduces a low-cost respirometry assay for C. elegans using optical oxygen sensors and fluorescence readers, showing it can accurately measure OCR and identify issues with sequential respiratory inhibitor use.
