Dietary Induction and Modulation of Ferroptosis in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
2019-09-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of regulated cell death associated with oxidized polyunsaturated phospholipids. Understanding the role of this process in vivo has been slowed by the lack of readily accessible model systems. Exposing the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans to the polyunsaturated fatty acid dihomogamma-linolenic acid (DGLA; 20:3n-6) causes germ cell death and sterility that is l...
