Parental dietary vitamin B12 causes intergenerational growth acceleration and protects offspring from pathogenic microsporidia and bacteria
2023-09-07
Abstract excerpt
The parental environment of C. elegans can have lasting effects on progeny development and immunity. Vitamin B12 exposure in C. elegans has been shown to accelerate development and to reduce killing caused by pathogenic Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Vitamin B12 is also maternally transferred to offspring, suggesting a potential role in progeny development. However, the intergenerational effects of vitamin B12 in C....
