Gain-of-function mutations in the UNC-2/CaV2α channel lead to hyperactivity and excitation-dominant synaptic transmission in Caenorhabditis elegans

Yung-Chi Huang, Jennifer K. Pirri, Diego Rayes, Shangbang Gao, Ben Mulcahy, Jeff Grant, Yasunori Saheki, Michael M. Francis, Mei Zhen, Mark J. Alkema

This study identifies a gain-of-function mutation in the UNC-2/CaV2α channel in C. elegans that causes hyperactivity and excitation-dominant synaptic transmission by altering cholinergic and GABAergic transmission.

Acute-stress impairs cytoprotective mechanisms through neural inhibition of the insulin pathway

Marı́a José De Rosa, Tania Veuthey, Jeremy Florman, Jeff Grant, Gabriela Blanco, Natalia Andersen, Jamie L. Donnelly, Diego Rayes, Mark J. Alkema

The paper shows that acute stress impairs cytoprotective mechanisms by inhibiting the insulin pathway through neural release of tyramine in C. elegans.
