Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of environmental factor-temperature in the regulation of aging process by unc-13 and sbt-1 in Caenorhabditis elegans. METHODS: The lifespan, the speed of pharynx pumping, and the intestinal autofluorescence of unc-13 and sbt-1 mutants were examined at different temperature conditions. In addition, to exclude the possible influences from other factors in unc-13 and sbt-1 mutants,...
