Early life starvation and Hedgehog-related signaling activate innate immunity downstream of daf-18/PTEN and lin-35/Rb causing developmental abnormalities in adult C. elegans
2025-03-05
Abstract excerpt
Early life experiences such as malnutrition can affect development and adult disease risk, but the molecular basis of such protracted effects is poorly understood. In the nematode C. elegans, extended starvation during the first larval stage causes the development of germline tumors and other abnormalities in the adult gonad, limiting reproductive success. Insulin/IGF signaling (IIS) acts through WNT signaling and...
