A sexually dimorphic neuroendocrine cascade acts through shared sensory neurons to regulate behavior in C. elegans

Zoë A. Hilbert, Dennis H. Kim

This study identifies a sexually dimorphic neuroendocrine cascade in C. elegans where PDF-1 regulates daf-7 expression in ASJ neurons, leading to sex-specific behavioral outcomes through the PDFR-1 receptor.
