The Influence of Bacterial Diet on Fat Storage in C. elegans

20 Oct 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans has emerged as an important model for studies of the regulation of fat storage. C. elegans feed on bacteria, and various strains of E. coli are commonly used in research settings. However, it is not known whether particular bacterial diets affect fat storage and metabolism. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Fat staining of fixed nematodes, as well as biochemical...
