Abstract:

Over the past 50 years, the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans has become established as one of the most powerful and widely used model organisms. This article explores the origins and subsequent history of a generally accepted system for gene naming and genetic nomenclature in C. elegans.

Anthelminthic Agents

Anthelmintic drugs differ significantly from antiparasitic therapies targeting protozoa, primarily due to differences in parasite biology. Whereas most protozoal treatments act on proliferating cells, anthelmintics are typically directed against mature, nonproliferative helminths. The therapeutic approach considers the helminth's reliance on neuromuscular coordination, glucose metabolism, and microtubular integrity for survival, reproduction, and localization within the host. Most anthelmintics...
