Description: Restriction of dietary food without malnutrition robustly extends lifespan in more than
twenty species. It was also reported that fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) deficient in
olfactory function live longer and that the longevity induced by food restriction is partially
due to decreased olfaction. These observations suggest food assimilation through the gastrointestinal
tract and food… more

Description: Salmonella typhimurium infects both intestinal epithelial cells and macrophages. Autophagy is a lysosomal
degradation pathway that is present in all eukaryotes. Autophagy has been reported to limit the
Salmonella replication in Caenorhabditis elegans and in mammals. However, it is unknown whether intestinal
autophagy activity plays a role in host defense against Salmonella infection in C.… more

Description: In the last decade, C. elegans has emerged as an invertebrate organism to study interactions between hosts and pathogens, including the host defense against gram-negative bacterium Salmonella typhimurium. Salmonella establishes persistent infection in the intestine of C. elegans and results in early death of infected animals. A number of immunity mechanisms have been identified in C. elegans to… more
