Abstract Synopsis

  • The surface of nematodes has a complex cuticle that adapts to environmental pressures, but its molecular composition is not well understood.
  • Advanced techniques like 3D-OrbiSIMS were used to analyze the outermost layer of nematodes, revealing a lipid-rich surface that varies by species and develops over time.
  • Key metabolic pathways, specifically peroxisomal fatty acid β-oxidation, are crucial for creating these species-specific lipid profiles, affecting their survival and interactions with predators.
