Neural regeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Axon regeneration is a medically relevant process that can repair damaged neurons. This review describes current progress in understanding axon regeneration in the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans. Factors that regulate axon regeneration in C. elegans have broadly similar roles in vertebrate neurons. This means that using C. elegans as a tool to leverage discovery is a legitimate strategy for identifying conserved mechanisms of axon regeneration.

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a widely adopted model organism for studying various neurobiological processes at the molecular and cellular level in vivo. With a small, flexible, and continuously moving body, the manipulation of C. elegans becomes a challenging task. In this review, we highlight recent advances in microfluidic technologies for the manipulation of C. elegans. These new f...

متن کاملEnhancement of neuronal regeneration by optogenetic cellular activation in C. elegans
Large numbers of people suffer from nervous system injuries and neurodegenerative diseases each year, with little success in regaining lost neural functions. Attempts to successfully regenerate nervous tissue in the mammalian Central Nervous System have meet with limited success. Simpler models have thus been useful in determining conserved mechanisms in the enhancement of neural regeneration. ...
متن کاملMAP kinase cascades regulating axon regeneration in C. elegans
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascades are activated by diverse stimuli such as growth factors, cytokines, neurotransmitters and various types of cellular stress. Our evolving understanding of these signal cascades has been facilitated by genetic analyses and physiological characterization in model organisms such as the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Genetic and biochemica...

Presently, the use of protective food additives such as benzoic acid and sodium nitrate is quite common. However, it was found that these additives, which initially appeared to be harmless, led to the emergence of a number of health problems. Cancer and diseases and deaths with no apparent causes are among the leading concerns. Therefore, the studies which can reveal the genotoxic potential of ...
