In the field of biology, Caenorhabditis elegans (C.elegans) has become a “star organism” for scientists studying neuroscience due to its simple yet exquisite nervous system. For a long time, scientists have been committed to...
Understanding the genetic basis of behavior is one of biology’s great challenges. In Caenorhabditis elegans, a nematode with diverse feeding behaviors, the neuroendocrine ligand daf-7 plays a central role in...
Protein homeostasis (proteostasis) is essential for maintaining cellular and organismal balance, and its disruption is a defining characteristic of aging. The mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) is...
