Cells in our bodies produce RNA based on genetic information stored in DNA, and RNA serves as a blueprint for making proteins. Researchers at KAIST have discovered a new phenomenon: Removing "circular ...
I remember the day I got obsessed with a tiny, see-through worm. I was in a classroom at Northeastern University, where I worked at the time, giving a science-communication workshop to a group of ...
Changes in Caenorhabditis elegans lysosome metabolism can be carried through generations via inherited histone modifications. A team of researchers from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (MD, USA), ...
New research in C. elegans from scientists at Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) helps explain how changes in the parents’ lysosomes that promote longevity are transferred to their offspring.
A new microfluidic method preserves worm anatomy to link lipid signals with body structure using mass spectrometry imaging. Understanding how fat molecules are distributed and function in living ...
Abstract: The genome of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans shows far-reaching similarities to that of humans. C. elegans is therefore considered as a powerful model organism in biological research ...
A staple in laboratories worldwide, C. elegans is “an experimental dream,” said one scientist. A staple in laboratories worldwide, C. elegans is “an experimental dream,” said one scientist.
This study highlights a novel mechanism of gut-to-brain communication crucial for lipid metabolism. In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers identify an endogenous insulin ...
In a struggle that probably sounds familiar to dieters everywhere, the less a Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) worm eats, the more slowly it loses fat. Now, scientists at Scripps Research have ...
