NLP-12/Cholecystokinin signaling stabilizes sensory dendritic structure and protects neuronal healthspan in <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i>
2026-03-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Aging selectively degrades neuronal structure and function, yet the signals that actively preserve neuronal integrity over adult life remain incompletely defined. In Caenorhabditis elegans , the PVD sensory neuron develops progressive excessive higher-order dendritic branching during normal aging that correlates with declines in proprioceptive locomotion. Using this system as a quantitative in...
