Lifespan Extension in C. elegans Caused by Bacterial Colonization of the Intestine and Subsequent Activation of an Innate Immune ResponseDOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2019.03.010 Abstract: ? phm-2 encodes a SAFB protein conserved in mammals ? phm-2 and eat-2 mutants have a defective pharynx and accumulate bacteria in the gut ? Bacterial accumulation activates innate immunity and bacterial avoidance behavior ? Bacterial avoidance leads to dietary restriction and delays agin
