Wnt signaling in C. elegans [PDF]

WormBook, 2013
Wnt proteins are secreted lipid-modified glycoproteins that control many aspects of development in organisms ranging from sponges to vertebrates. Wnt proteins are also important regulators of C. elegans development, with functions in processes as diverse as cell fate specification, asymmetric cell division, cell migration and synapse formation. In this

Japanese studies on neural circuits and behavior of Caenorhabditis elegans

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2013
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is an ideal organism for studying neural plasticity and animal behaviors. A total of 302 neurons of a C. elegans hermaphrodite have been classified into 118 neuronal groups.

Network Flow Method Integrates Skeleton Information for Multiple C. elegans Tracking

Sensors
In order to solve the issues arising from collisions, this paper proposes a network flow method combined with skeleton information for multiple C. elegans tracking. In the intra-track stage, non-colliding C.

Probiotic Lactobacillus fermentum strain JDFM216 stimulates the longevity and immune response of Caenorhabditis elegans through a nuclear hormone receptor

Scientific Reports, 2018
Here, we examined the functionality of Lactobacillus fermentum strain JDFM216, a newly isolated probiotic bacterium, using a Caenorhabditis elegans model. We determined bacterial colonization in the intestinal tract of C.

Lipidomic Analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans Embryos

Bio-Protocol, 2017
Metabolomic is an emerging field of system biology. Lipidomic, a branch of metabolomic, aims to characterize lipophilic metabolites in biological systems. Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) is a genetically tractable and versatile animal model for novel

One new species and three new records of Chrysis Linnaeus from China (Hymenoptera, Chrysididae)

ZooKeys, 2017
Four Chinese Chrysis species-groups, the antennata, capitalis, elegans, and maculicornis species-groups, are discussed. Chrysis lapislazulina Rosa & Xu, sp. n. is described in the elegans species-group; and three species, C. brachyceras Bischoff,

Expansion microscopy of C. elegans

eLife, 2020
We recently developed expansion microscopy (ExM), which achieves nanoscale-precise imaging of specimens at ~70 nm resolution (with ~4.5x linear expansion) by isotropic swelling of chemically processed, hydrogel-embedded tissue. ExM of C. elegans is challenged by its cuticle, which is stiff and impermeable to antibodies.

Development of equation of motion deciphering locomotion including omega turns of Caenorhabditis elegans

eLife
Locomotion is a fundamental behavior of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Previous works on kinetic simulations of animals helped researchers understand the physical mechanisms of locomotion and the muscle-controlling principles of neuronal circuits ...
