Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 In this study, we investigated the relation of probiotic activity of Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus strain GG (LGG) and expression of microRNA to immune response and longevity in Caenorhabditis elegans host model. First, we evaluated the survival rate of C.

Caenorhabditis Elegans Exhibits Morphine Addiction-like Behavior via the Opioid-like Receptor NPR-17
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022 Addiction has become a profound societal problem worldwide, and few effective treatments are available. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is an excellent invertebrate model to study neurobiological disease states. C.

Gastrulation in C. elegans [PDF]
WormBook, 2005 Gastrulation is the process by which the germ layers become positioned in an embryo. C. elegans gastrulation serves as a model for studying the molecular mechanisms of diverse cellular and developmental phenomena, including morphogenesis, cell polarization, cell-cell signaling, actomyosin contraction and cell-cell adhesion.

Genetic and cellular sensitivity of Caenorhabditis elegans to the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2018 Cisplatin and derivatives are commonly used as chemotherapeutic agents. Although the cytotoxic action of cisplatin on cancer cells is very efficient, clinical oncologists need to deal with two major difficulties, namely the onset of resistance to the ...

Homologous and unique G protein alpha subunits in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
, 1991 A cDNA corresponding to a known G protein alpha subunit, the alpha subunit of Go (Go alpha), was isolated and sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence of C. elegans Go alpha is 80-87% identical to other Go alpha sequences.

WormBook, 2009 Autophagy is a ubiquitous cellular process responsible for the bulk degradation of cytoplasmic components through an autophagosomal-lysosomal pathway. Genetic screens, primarily in S. cerevisiae, have identified numerous genes that are essential for autophagy. Many of these genes have orthologs in higher eukaryotes, including C.
