Novel infection by Mucor hiemalis kills Caenorhabditis hosts through intestinal perforation [PDF]
Infection and ImmunityThe nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has emerged as a popular model system to investigate cell biology and host-pathogen interactions. Presently, C. elegans is studied as a natural host of intracellular pathogens such as microsporidia and Orsay virus ...

Evaluating beta-tubulin variants as predictors of benzimidazole resistance across Caenorhabditis nematodes. [PDF]
PLoS PathogensBenzimidazoles, a widely used class of anthelmintic drugs, target beta-tubulin, disrupt microtubule formation, and delay nematode development. In parasitic nematodes, mutations in beta-tubulin genes are predicted to inhibit benzimidazole binding and are ...

From small brains to smart machines: translating Caenorhabditis elegans neural circuits into artificial intelligence [PDF]
Frontiers in Neural CircuitsThe hermaphroditic Caenorhabditis elegans, with its fully mapped connectome of 302 neurons, offers a paradigmatic example of how a minimal nervous system governs biotic, adaptive, and context-dependent behaviors.

Differential Phoretic Vector Use Among Sympatric Caenorhabditis Nematodes and an Association With Invasive Nitidulid Beetles in Southwestern Germany [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionLittle is known about the natural history of many Caenorhabditis nematodes, despite their relationship to the model species C. elegans. While these nematodes rely on invertebrate vectors to disperse to new habitats (phoresy), vector use for most species ...

Variation in Social Feeding Behaviors and Interactions Among Caenorhabditis Nematodes [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionThe ability to respond to stimuli and environmental cues is essential for higher order organisms to survive and reproduce and requires a neuronal network that can integrate cues and execute behavioral responses. Evolution of behaviors occurs ubiquitously

Kindler syndrome: A rare case report
Muller Journal of Medical Sciences and Research, 2021 Kindler syndrome is a very rare genodermatosis with an autosomal recessive pattern and about 250 cases have been reported worldwide. The mutant gene is Fermitin family homolog 1 gene (KIND1), located on chromosome 20p12.3, which encodes for focal ...
