Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: Tumour cell proliferation requires high metabolism to meet the bioenergetics and biosynthetic needs. Dauer in Caenorhabditis elegans is characterized by lower metabolism, and we established an approach with C elegans to find potential tumour therapy targets. MATERIALS AND METHODS: RNAi screening was used to find dauer-related genes, and these genes were further analysed in glp-1(-) mutants for...
