AMPK regulates germline stem cell quiescence and integrity through an endogenous small RNA pathway.
During suboptimal growth conditions, Caenorhabditis elegans larvae undergo a global developmental arrest called "dauer." During this stage, the germline stem cells (GSCs) become quiescent in an AMP-activated Protein Kinase (AMPK)-dependent manner, and in the absence of AMPK, the GSCs overp...
