Early Nicotine Exposure Altered Larval Neuromuscular Function and Adult Germline Apoptosis via MiRNA-Dependent Mechanisms
Alston, Robyn D (East Carolina University, 2016-04-29)MicroRNAs fine tune the expression of target genes needed for homeostasis. Our pilot study showed that nicotine altered 17% miRNAs in C. elegans larvae. Here, we investigated the role of microRNAs in mediating nicotine-induced ...
