Mitochondria are a main source of cellular energy. Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is
the major process of aerobic respiration. Enzyme complexes of the electron transport chain …

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate responses to various extracellular and
intracellular cues. However, the large number of GPCR genes and their substantial …

Significance: Redox dysregulation under pathological conditions results in excessive
reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, leading to oxidative stress and cellular …

Mitochondrial dysfunction and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation within the
substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) are central drivers of dopaminergic (DA) neuron …

Environmental surveillance-mediated behavior integrates multiple cues through complex
signaling mechanisms. In Caenorhabditis elegans, neurons coordinate perception and …

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are soil-dwelling parasitic roundworms commonly
used as biocontrol agents of insect pests in agriculture. EPN dauer juveniles locate and …

Hypoxia alters eating behavior in different animals. In C. elegans, hypoxia induces a strong
food leaving response. We found that this behavior was independent of the known O 2 …

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can act as an energy source, a poison and a gasotransmitter in
organisms. We used the robust locomotory responses to H2S in Caenorhabditis elegans to …

Caenorhabditis elegans studies can be constrained by worms escaping standard solid
nematode growth medium (NGM) plates. When worms are in search of food or are avoiding …

Sensation provides a pivotal ability, allowing animals to survive in complex environments.
The cues sensed by animals are represented by external stimuli and internal signals …
