Nikos' terrific paper on C. elegans GLR mesodermal glia development is now in press at EMBO J. Enjoy! https://t.co/JgLg4qMNSY

Check out new work on bioRxiv from Kate Varandas from our lab investigating a novel pathway by which glia sense dendrite substructure changes and respond protectively. https://t.co/ua5uX5LfkP

New biorxiv preprint from Nikos Stefanakis from the lab describing how to make C. elegans GLR glia - these glia arise from lineages giving rise to mesodermal cell types and combine astrocyte and endothelial properties. https://t.co/cdLOQDSoY5

Check out our new results on C. elegans interactions with fungi (P. brevicompactum), and responses in both gut and, surprisingly, glia! https://t.co/nGvLgv2cez

Nuclear hormone receptors promote gut and glia detoxifying enzyme induction and protect C. elegans from the mold P. brevicompactum https://t.co/qxbycw1m0G #bioRxiv

Excited to share our new preprint describing a novel C. elegans glial gene, remo-1, important for regulating stress-induced nervous system remodeling and dauer exit behavior! #bioRxiv @RockefellerUniv @InHaeLee.

Our new biorxiv paper (https://t.co/MElQiBXJ9J)! Katz et al. reveal role for C. elegans astrocyte-like CEPsh glia in repetitive behavior. Glial GLT1 and neuronal MGL-2/mGluR5 are key, and mouse homologs similarly affect behavior, suggesting conserved circuit pathology (Movie).

Exciting publication from the Sundaram lab on how a C. elegans extracellular fusogen drives sealing of endocytic vesicles. A new way to think about endocytosis. https://t.co/B9UtebEZme

Our first bioRxiv submission! See 3D movie: C. elegans linker cell death and dismantling. Linker cell dies non-apoptotically in development using LCD (linker cell-type death), a process conserved from worms to people. Dismantling is also novel- check out paper to see how!
