Muscular expression of pezo-1 differentially contributes to swimming and crawling production in the nematode C. elegans.

Adina Fazyl, Mackenzie Jones, Damiano Marchiafava, Shifat Niha, Erin Sawilchik, Wolfgang Stein, Andres Gabriel Vidal-Gadea

This study investigates the role of PEZO-1 in C. elegans body wall muscles, showing it differentially affects crawling and swimming by modulating calcium dynamics and muscle activation.

The AMsh glia of C. elegans modulates the duration of touch-induced escape responses

Temitope Awe, Aalimah Akinosho, Shifat Niha, Laura Kelly, Jessica Adams, Wolfgang Stein, Andres Gabriel Vidal-Gadea

This study identifies the role of AMsh glia in modulating the duration of nose-touch escape responses in C. elegans by mechanosensory transduction and GABAergic signaling.
