Olfactory learning primes the heat shock transcription factor HSF-1 to enhance the expression of molecular chaperone genes in <i>C. elegans</i>
2017-06-20
Abstract excerpt
Learning, a process by which animals modify their behavior as a result of experience, allows organisms to synthesize information from their surroundings to acquire resources and predict danger. Here we show that prior encounter with the odor of pathogenic bacteria prepares Caenorhabditis elegans to survive actual exposure to the pathogen by increasing HSF-1-dependent expression of genes encoding molecular chapero...
