Perception of Temperature Even in the Absence of Actual Change is Sufficient to Drive Transgenerational Epigenetic Inheritance

2024-12-05

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Can processes occurring in one individual’s nervous system influence the physiology of the descendants? Here, we explored the hypothesis that parents’ sensation or perception of environmental cues can influence their offspring, extending across many subsequent generations. We show that in Caenorhabditis elegans , temperature perception by the AFD thermosensory neurons initiates a signaling casca...
