Insulin-Like Signaling and Tissue-Specific Requirements of Anoxia Survival in Caenorhabditis elegans

Description: Paper examines the soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, an organism which can normally survive a day of anoxia (oxygen deprivation) and longer with mutations in the daf-2/daf-16 pathway. Examines how these mutations affect anoxia survival and the potential benefit to the development of anoxia-related therapies in humans.
