  • Publication number: 20170339930
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans including, in sensory neurons, Channelrhodopsin 2 (ChR2)::Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) DNA in which the ChR2 gene and the GFP gene are linked, a method of producing the same, a method of regulating the lifespan thereof, and a method of screening an aging regulation candidate by using the same. The present disclosure may also provide an animal model for research into prevention/treatment of aging-related diseases by regulating the lifespan of an animal on a subject level and a method of screening a drug candidate for prevention/treatment of aging-related diseases.

  • Patent number: 9681648
    Abstract: Provided are transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) overexpressing DNA methyltransferase 3a (Dnmt3a) and a method of producing the same. According to the method, a specific mechanism and related factors for DNA methylation mediated by Dnmt3a may be found, and a critical gene for regulating the life span of C. elegans may be identified, and therefore C. elegans may be used as an animal model for screening a drug for a DNA methylation-related disease.
