Aged C. elegans display a decline in their anatomical and functional features, including tissue integrity, motility, learning and memory, and immunity. Caenorhabditis elegans also exhibit many ageİ\associated changes in the expression of microRNAs and stressİ\responsive genes and in RNA and protein quality control systems. Many of these ageİ\associated changes provide information on the health of the animals and serve as valuable biomarkers for aging research. Here, we review the ageİ\dependent changes in C. elegans and their utility as aging biomarkers indicative of the physiological status of aging %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6413654/
