Monsters in the uterus: A parthenogenetic quasi-program causes teratoma-like tumors during aging in wild-type C. elegans

Hongyuan Wang, Yuan Zhao, Marina Ezcurra…·David Gems

The paper investigates uterine tumors in C. elegans as a senescent pathology caused by quasi-programs, showing similarities to teratomas and senescence.
