Inhibition of Ferroptosis Delays Aging and Extends Healthspan Across Multiple Species

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies ferroptosis as a key driver of cellular senescence, with its inhibition delaying aging and extending healthspan across species. During senescence, ferroptosis worsens, increasing oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, which accelerate aging.

Predicting Phenotypic Diversity and the Underlying Quantitative Molecular Transitions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
During development, signaling networks control the formation of multicellular patterns. To what extent quantitative fluctuations in these complex networks may affect multicellular phenotype remains unclear.

Optogenetic mutagenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
AbstractReactive oxygen species (ROS) can modify and damage DNA. Here we report an optogenetic mutagenesis approach that is free of toxic chemicals and easy to perform by taking advantage of a genetically encoded ROS generator. This method relies on the potency of ROS generation by His-mSOG, the mini singlet oxygen generator, miniSOG, fused to a ...

Post‐Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes current understanding of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in ciliary proteins and emphasizes their roles in ciliary formation, homeostasis, and signaling. This review also discusses the implication of PTM dysregulation in ciliopathies and explores therapeutic strategies targeting PTM‐modifying enzymes.

Neurogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesGENETICS
Abstract Animals rely on their nervous systems to process sensory inputs, integrate these with internal signals, and produce behavioral outputs. This is enabled by the highly specialized morphologies and functions of neurons. Neuronal cells share multiple structural and physiological features, but they also come in a large diversity of ...

Caenorhabditis elegans par genes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2002
What are they? Six par genes (par-1 through par-6) have been identified in Caenorhabditis elegans. Loss-of-function mutations in any par locus results in loss of anterior–posterior (AP) asymmetries during the first two embryonic cell divisions. This results in a failure to restrict developmental regulators to specific embryonic cells, mitotic spindle ...

Two New Cases Expand the Phenotypic Spectrum of TUBG1 Missense Variants

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The gamma‐tubulin ring complex (γ‐TuRC) plays a role in coordinating centrosome and spindle pole body formation during cell division. TUBG1 encodes a critical component of the γ‐TuRC. Pathogenic TUBG1 variants can cause a range of alterations in cortical gyral patterning, microcephaly, and other neurological manifestations.

The Multilayer Connectome of Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesPLOS Computational Biology, 2016
Connectomics has focused primarily on the mapping of synaptic links in the brain; yet it is well established that extrasynaptic volume transmission, especially via monoamines and neuropeptides, is also critical to brain function and occurs primarily outside the synaptic connectome.

Increased protein stability and decreased protein turnover in the Caenorhabditis elegans Ins/IGF-1 daf-2 mutant [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In Caenorhabditis elegans, cellular proteostasis is likely essential for longevity. Autophagy has been shown to be essential for lifespan extension of daf-2 insulin/IGF mutants.
