Reprogramming of the transcriptome after heat stress mediates heat hormesis in Caenorhabditis elegans

Abstract Transient stress experiences not only trigger acute stress responses, but can also have long-lasting effects on cellular functions. In Caenorhabditis elegans, a brief exposure to heat shock during early adulthood extends lifespan and improves stress resistance, a phenomenon known as heat ho...
