Curcumin reduced fat accumulation in Caenorhabditis elegans
Current Research in Food Science, 2021 Curcumin, the primary bioactive substance in turmeric, is known to be associated with weight loss. In this study, we employed Caenorhabditis elegans, a well-established in vivo nematode model to explore the role of curcumin in regulating lipid metabolism.

Caenorhabditis elegans BAH-1 is a DUF23 protein expressed in seam cells and required for microbial biofilm binding to the cuticle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 The cuticle of Caenorhabditis elegans, a complex, multi-layered extracellular matrix, is a major interface between the animal and its environment. Biofilms produced by the bacterial genus Yersinia attach to the cuticle of the worm, providing an assay for
