Caenorhabditis elegans-Bacteria interactions: Neuronal Regulation of Innate Immune Responses
The survival of an organism depends on its ability to sense threats and execute appropriate defense mechanisms. C. elegans is a soil-dwelling nematode that feeds on bacteria in rotting vegetation. The nematode has few ... -
Neuroimmune Regulation in Caenorhabditis elegans: The Roles of the Amphid Sensory Neurons and Olfaction in Host Immune Responses
The ability of hosts to rapidly sense invading pathogens and mount an appropriate response is paramount for host survival. Pathogens, pervasive in the natural world, present a perpetual threat to host organisms. Examining ...
