|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Summary | The exposure to low levels of oxygen (hypoxic conditions) can result in decreased cell survival in many animals. C. elegans has an preferred range of oxygen concentration and reacts on a cellular level to drops in environmental oxygen concentrations through a hypoxia response pathway. Since the induction of hypoxic conditions has been correlated with a mechanism of attack used by pathogenic bacteria, this response pathway also helps C. elegans defend itself against microbial attack. | ||||
