| Pattern | INS-18 was expressed in head and tail neurons at every developmental stage. At the dauer stage, INS-18::VENUS was more intensively expressed in head and tail neurons than at normal developmental stages. It was also expressed in ventral cells. This expression was never seen at any developmental stage. During recovery from the dauer stage, INS-18::VENUS expression gradually weakened. In 5 days after worms reached the young adult stage, we observed INS-18::VENUS expression in pairs of ventral cells near the vulva. Based on their shape and anatomical location, we speculate these cells to be HSNs To support this hypothesis, we analyzed INS-18 expression in male transgenic worms. These worms expressed INS-18::VENUS only in head and tail neurons and not in ventral cells. Therefore, we concluded that INS-18::VENUS is expressed in HSNs at the adult stage. | |||
