Caenorhabditis elegans Olfaction

2017
To survive, animals must properly sense their surrounding environment. The types of sensation that allow for detecting these changes can be categorized as tactile, thermal, aural, or olfactory. Olfaction is one of the most primitive senses, involving the detection of environmental chemical cues. Organisms must sense and discriminate between abiotic and

Biolistic Transformation of Caenorhabditis elegans

2012
The ability to generate transgenic animals to study gene expression and function is a powerful and important part of the Caenorhabditis elegans genetic toolbox. Transgenic animals can be created by introducing exogenous DNA into the worm germline either by microinjection or by microparticle bombardment (biolistic transformation).

Chapter 30 Autophagy in Caenorhabditis elegans

2008
Autophagy (cellular self-eating) is a highly regulated, lysosome-mediated catabolic process of eukaryotic cells to segregate by a special membrane and subsequently degrade their own constituents during development or starvation. Electron microscopy analysis reveals autophagic elements in various cell types of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, whose ...

The pharynx of Caenorhabditis elegans

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1976
The anatomy of the pharynx of Caenorhabditis elegans has been reconstructed from electron micrographs of serial sections. The pharynx is used for pumping food into the gut, and is composed of 34 muscle cells, 9 marginal cells, 9 epithelial cells, 5 gland cells and 20 neurones.

The Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans

Science, 1988
In Caenorhabditis elegans patterns of cell division, differentiation, and morphogenesis can be observed with single-cell resolution in intact, living animals. Mechanisms that determine behaviors of individual cells during development are being dissected by means of genetic, cell biological, and molecular approaches.

The Caenorhabditis elegans intestine

WIREs Developmental Biology, 2012
AbstractThe transcriptional regulatory hierarchy that controls development of the Caenorhabditis elegans endoderm begins with the maternally provided SKN‐1 transcription factor, which determines the fate of the EMS blastomere of the four‐cell embryo.
