Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study uses Caenorhabditis elegans to assess the activity of amphetamine‐type stimulants (ATS) and their analogs. The research highlights the roles of dopamine and serotonin pathways, distinguishes chiral forms of ATS, and identifies structure‐activity relationships. These findings provide a rapid and cost‐effective model for evaluating the effects

An inversion in the wiring of an intercellular signal: evolution of Wnt signaling in the nematode vulva [PDF]
BioEssays 27 (2005) 765-769, 2005 Signal transduction pathways are largely conserved throughout the animal kingdom. The repertoire of pathways is limited and each pathway is used in different intercellular signaling events during the development of a given animal. For example, Wnt signaling is recruited, sometimes redundantly with other molecular pathways, in four cell specification ...

Phototherapy via Modulation of β‐Amyloid in Combating Alzheimer's Disease
Aggregate, EarlyView.This review introduces the light‐regulated Aβ aggregation, highlighting four applications: photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), photopharmacology, and photobiomodulation (PBM) systems. It also summarizes the current issues and proposes the prospects of photo‐induced modulation of Aβ aggregation and clearance as a therapeutic strategy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView., 2023 Yam is a major tropical root crop and a staple food for millions of people in West Africa. The model used in this study shows that promoting the use of improved seed tubers would help increase yields and profitability for farmers. This could lead to improved food security, increased income and higher standards of living.

Material properties of of Caenorhabditis elegans swimming at low Reynolds number [PDF]
, 2009 Undulatory locomotion, as seen in the nematode \emph{Caenorhabditis elegans}, is a common swimming gait of organisms in the low Reynolds number regime, where viscous forces are dominant. While the nematode's motility is expected to be a strong function of its material properties, measurements remain scarce.

High-throughput Phenotyping of Nematode Cysts [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The beet cyst nematode (BCN) Heterodera schachtii is a plant pest responsible for crop loss on a global scale. Here, we introduce a high-throughput system based on computer vision that allows quantifying BCN infestation and characterizing nematode cysts through phenotyping.
