An insulin-to-insulin regulatory network orchestrates phenotypic specificity in development and physiology.

An insulin-to-insulin regulatory network orchestrates phenotypic specificity in development and physiology.

Insulin-like peptides (ILPs) play highly conserved roles in development and physiology. Most animal genomes encode multiple ILPs. Here we identify mechanisms for how the forty Caenorhabditis elegans ILPs coordinate diverse processes, including development, reproduction, longevity and several specifi...
