A Pipeline for Volume Electron Microscopy of the Caenorhabditis elegans Nervous System. [PDF]
The "connectome," a comprehensive wiring diagram of synaptic connectivity, is achieved through volume electron microscopy (vEM) analysis of an entire nervous system and all associated non-neuronal tissues. White et al.

Proteomics in Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
Proteomic approaches are increasingly being used to complement genetic and RNA interference-based studies of gene function in Caenorhabditis elegans. Several strategies to isolate protein complexes from whole worms and individual differentiated cell types have been described.

Genetic Suppression of Basement Membrane Defects in Caenorhabditis elegans by Gain of Function in Extracellular Matrix and Cell-Matrix Attachment Genes. [PDF]
Basement membranes are extracellular matrices essential for embryonic development in animals. Peroxidasins are extracellular peroxidases implicated in the unique sulfilimine cross-links between type IV basement membrane collagens. Loss of function in the

Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

The Enigmatic Canal-Associated Neurons Regulate Caenorhabditis elegans Larval Development Through a cAMP Signaling Pathway. [PDF]
Caenorhabditis elegans larval development requires the function of the two Canal-Associated Neurons (CANs): killing the CANs by laser microsurgery or disrupting their development by mutating the gene ceh-10 results in early larval arrest. How these cells

Straightening Caenorhabditis elegans images [PDF]
Abstract Motivation: Caenorhabditis elegans, a roundworm found in soil, is a widely studied model organism with about 1000 cells in the adult. Producing high-resolution fluorescence images of C.elegans to reveal biological insights is becoming routine, motivating the development of advanced computational tools for analyzing the ...

Recent progresses on anti-aging compounds and their targets in Caenorhabditis elegans
Searching for drugs that extend healthy lifespan and the subsequent analysis of their mechanisms of action is a crucial aspect for aging research. However, identifying both longevity-enhancing drugs and their corresponding targets is challenging.

In silico Evaluation of mirror repeats within ced-9 Gene of Caenorhabditis elegans
Background: Repetitive elements constitute a significant proportion of metazoan genomes. These elements form different types of unusual structures, such as left-handed Z-DNA, triple-stranded H-DNA, G-quadruplex, and cruciform, and are related to various ...
