This study shows that OSM-9 protein is required for converting short-term memory to long-term memory in C. elegans, not for memory acquisition, and reveals memory dynamics through spaced training and food re-feeding effects.

This study shows that C. elegans uses coupled neural oscillators to implement working memory during foraging, integrating sensory input with motor output.

This paper shows that the TRPV channel OSM-9 is required for sleep-dependent olfactory memory in C. elegans, despite being expressed in sensory neurons not involved in butanone attraction.

The paper shows that sleep is necessary for memory consolidation and synaptic remodeling in C. elegans after odor training.

This paper identifies INX-18 and INX-19 as distinct components of electrical synapses in C. elegans that modulate aversive behavior through cGMP exchange between ASH and ASK neurons.

The paper introduces a GFP-based cGMP sensor, WincG2, for real-time imaging of cGMP dynamics in intact C. elegans, showing its sensitivity to cGMP changes and responses to NaCl and SDS.

This study shows that NRDE2 prevents DNA damage accumulation during mitosis under stress by interacting with monomeric nuclear actin, which is critical for genomic integrity.
