Predator-secreted sulfolipids induce defensive responses in C. elegans

Predator-secreted sulfolipids induce defensive responses in C. elegans

Defensive behavioral responses can be triggered by predator-released odors. Here, the authors identified the relevant Pristionchus pacificus-released sulfolipid molecules and dissected the neural circuits underlying C. elegans response to this predator.
