Disease_model_descriptionIn mammalian models of chronic stress, brain levels of GPM6A, a protein involved in neuronal morphology, are altered. In C. elegans, worms mutant for nmgp-1 exhibit increased recovery time from the stress-resistant dauer stage, altered SDS chemosensation and reduced egg-laying rate resulting in egg retention. nmgp-1 mutants may serve as model to study stress related diseases such as depression and other neurospychiatric disorders.
