Acute thermal stress and various heavy metals induce tissue-specific pro-or anti-apoptotic events via the p38-MAPK signal transduction pathway in Mytilus …
E Kefaloyianni, E Gourgou, V Ferle… - Journal of …, 2005 - journals.biologists.com
We investigated the effects of various heavy metals such as copper, zinc and cadmium, as
well as acute thermal stress, on the signalling mechanisms involved in the protection and/or …

[PDF][PDF] Caenorhabditis elegans learning in a structured maze is a multisensory behavior
We show that C. elegans nematodes learn to associate food with a combination of proprioceptive
cues and information on the structure of their surroundings (maze), perceived through …

[HTML][HTML] Chemically induced oxidative stress affects ASH neuronal function and behavior in C. elegans
Oxidative stress (OS) impact on a single neuron’s function in vivo remains obscure. Using C.
elegans as a model organism, we report the effect of paraquat (PQ)-induced OS on wild …

[HTML][HTML] A mathematical and computational model of the calcium dynamics in Caenorhabditis elegans ASH sensory neuron
E Mirzakhalili, BI Epureanu, E Gourgou - PloS one, 2018 - journals.plos.org
We propose a mathematical and computational model that captures the stimulus-generated
Ca 2+ transients in the C. elegans ASH sensory neuron. The rationale is to develop a tool …

[HTML][HTML] Rate of recovery from perturbations as a means to forecast future stability of living systems
Anticipating critical transitions in complex ecological and living systems is an important need
because it is often difficult to restore a system to its pre-transition state once the transition …

A journey to 'tame a small metazoan organism', ‡ seen through the artistic eyes of C. elegans researchers
In the following pages, we share a collection of photos, drawings, and mixed-media creations,
most of them especially made for this JoN issue, manifesting C. elegans researchers’ …

[HTML][HTML] Synaptic impairment and robustness of excitatory neuronal networks with different topologies
Synaptic deficiencies are a known hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases, but the diagnosis
of impaired synapses on the cellular level is not an easy task. Nonetheless, changes in …
