Recent Progress in Regulation of Aging by Insulin/IGF-1 Signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans
1 Nov 2022
Abstract excerpt
Caenorhabditis elegans has been used as a major model organism to identify genetic factors that regulate organismal aging and longevity. Insulin/insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) signaling (IIS) regulates aging in many species, ranging from nematodes to humans. C. elegans is a nonpathogenic genetic nematode model, which has been extensively utilized to identify molecular and cellular components that function...
