Caenorhabditis nomenclature [PDF]

WormBook, 2018
Genetic nomenclature for Caenorhabditis species and other nematodes is supervised by WormBase in collaboration with the Caenorhabditis Genetics Center (CGC) and with essential input from the community of scientists working on C. elegans and other nematodes.

Distinct Types of Fibrocyte Can Differentiate from Mononuclear Cells in the Presence and Absence of Serum [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Ageing, immunity and stresstolerance are inherent characteristics of all organisms. In animals, these traits are regulated, at least in part, by forkhead transcription factors in response to upstream signals from the Insulin/Insulin–like ...

Autophagy in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2009
Macroautophagy (or autophagy) is a catabolic process responsible for the degradation of long-lived proteins, molecules and organelles. Cellular stressors such as food limitation, space restriction, oxidative stress, temperature shifts, and accumulation of protein aggregates induce autophagy.

Immunosenescence in Caenorhabditis elegans

Immunity & Ageing, 2022
AbstractImmunosenescence is an age-dependent decline in immune functions and hallmark of aging in diverse species, ranging from invertebrates to mammals. However, identifying the factors responsible for immunosenescence is challenging because of the complexity of immune systems and aging in mammals.

The genome of Caenorhabditis bovis [PDF]

Current Biology, 2019
AbstractThe free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a key laboratory model for metazoan biology. C. elegans is also used as a model for parasitic nematodes despite being only distantly related to most parasitic species. All ∼65 Caenorhabditis species currently in culture are free-living with most having been isolated from decaying plant or ...

Autism and mild epilepsy associated with a de novo missense pathogenic variant in the GTPase effector domain of DNM1

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Dynamin 1 is a GTPase protein involved in synaptic vesicle fission, which facilitates the exocytosis of neurotransmitters necessary for normal signaling. Pathogenic variants in the DNM1 gene are associated with intractable epilepsy, often manifested as infantile spasms at onset, developmental delay, and a movement disorder, and are located in ...

Immunometabolism in Caenorhabditis elegans

PLOS Pathogens, 2020
Here, we discuss 5 concepts that have emerged in studies of metabolic and immune interactions in C. elegans. The major emerging theme is that the immune response and the ability to survive pathogen infection is heavily influenced by pathogen-induced changes in host metabolism.

The genome of Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1995
The physical map of the 100-Mb Caenorhabditis elegans genome consists of 17,500 cosmids and 3500 yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs). A total of 22.5 Mb has been sequenced, with the remainder expected by 1998. A further 15.5 Mb of unfinished sequence is freely available online: because the areas sequenced so far are relatively gene rich, about half the
