Summary: To investigate the role of mitochondrial disruption on modulating conserved immunometabolic molecular pathways, we performed a whole transcriptome paired-end mRNA-seq analysis on C. elegans worms exposed to 0.5µM rotenone (a Complex I inhibitor) , or vehicle (0.125% dimethyl sulfoxide) . These results revealed 179 differentially expressed genes (134 up, 45 down) enriched for terms such as detoxification, energy metabolism, or pathogen defense. Whole transcriptome data revealed an association with the UPRmt and HIF-1 regulatory pathways.
