Caenorhabditis elegans exhibit avoidance behavior when presented with diverse bacterial pathogens. We hypothesized that exposure to pathogens might not only cause worms to move away but also simultaneously activate pathways that promote resistance to the pathogen. We show that brief exposure to the virulent or avirulent strains of the bacterial pathogen enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) “conditions” or “immunizes” C. elegans to survive a subsequent exposure that would otherwise prove lethal. Conditioning requires dopaminergic neurons. Conditioning also requires the p38 MAP Kinase pathway, which regulates innate immunity, and the insulin/IGFR pathway, which regulates lifespan. Our findings suggest that the molecular pathways that regulate innate immunity and lifespan and provide protection may, in nature, be regulated or “conditioned” by exposure to pathogens, and perhaps allow survival in noxious environments.
