BMP-Dependent Mobilization of Fatty Acid Metabolism Promotes <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> Survival on a Bacterial Pathogen
2025-03-15
Abstract excerpt
The Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) are secreted peptide ligands of the Transforming Growth Factor beta (TGF-β) family, initially identified for their roles in development and differentiation across animal species. They are now increasingly recognized for their roles in physiology and infectious disease. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans , the BMP ligand DBL-1 controls fat metabolism and immune response,...
