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: Increased neuronal excitability causes seizures with debilitating symptoms. Effective and noninvasive treatments are limited
for easing symptoms, partially due to the complexity of the disorder and lack of knowledge of specific molecular faults. An
unexplored, novel target for seizure therapeutics is the cGMP/protein kinase G (PKG) pathway, which targets downstream
K+
channels, a mechanism… more
