Serotonin activates overall feeding by activating two separate neural pathways in Caenorhabditis elegans.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 8 Feb 2012

Song Bo-mi, Avery Leon

Abstract excerpt

Food intake in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans requires two distinct feeding motions, pharyngeal pumping and isthmus peristalsis. Bacteria, the natural food of C. elegans, activate both feeding motions (Croll, 1978; Horvitz et al., 1982; Chiang et al., 2006). The mechanisms by which bacteria activate the feeding motions are largely unknown. To understand the process, we studied how serotonin, an endogenous...
