Transcriptional control of cell-cycle quiescence during C. elegans development.
During the development of the C. elegans reproductive system, cells that give rise to the vulva, the vulval precursor cells (VPCs), remain quiescent for two larval stages before resuming cell division in the third larval stage. We have identified several transcriptional regulators that contribute to this temporary cell-cycle arrest. Mutation of lin-1 or lin-31, two downstream targets of the Rec...
متن کاملASI regulates satiety quiescence in C. elegans.
In Caenorhabditis elegans, satiety quiescence mimics behavioral aspects of satiety and postprandial sleep in mammals. On the basis of calcium-imaging, genetics, and behavioral studies, here we report that a pair of amphid neurons, ASI, is activated by nutrition and regulates worms' behavioral states specifically promoting satiety quiescence; ASI inhibits the switch from quiescence to dwelling (...
متن کاملUsing C. elegans for aging research
Over a century ago, the zoologist Emile Maupas first identified the nematode, Rhabditis elegans, in the soil in Algiers. Subsequent work and phylogenic studies renamed the species Caenorhabditis elegans or more commonly referred to as C. elegans; (Caeno meaning recent; rhabditis meaning rod; elegans meaning nice). However, it was not until 1963, when Sydney Brenner, already successful from his ...
متن کاملNeuronal aging: learning from C. elegans
The heterogeneity and multigenetic nature of nervous system aging make modeling of it a formidable task in mammalian species. The powerful genetics, simple anatomy and short life span of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans offer unique advantages in unraveling the molecular genetic network that regulates the integrity of neuronal structures and functions during aging. In this review, we first s...
متن کاملTranscriptional Profile of Aging in C. elegans
BACKGROUND Numerous gerontogene mutants leading to dramatic life extensions have been identified in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans over the last 20 years. Analysis of these mutants has provided a basis for understanding the mechanisms driving the aging process(es). Several distinct mechanisms including an altered rate of aging, increased resistance to stress, decreased metabolic rate, or a...
