Neuroendocrine regulation of fat metabolism by autophagy gene atg‐18 in C. elegans dauer larvae
In environments with limited food and high population density, Caenorhabditis elegans larvae may enter the dauer stage, in which metabolism is shifted to fat accumulation to allow larvae to survive for months without food. Mutations in the insulin‐like receptor gene daf‐2 force C. elegans to constit...
