Insulin/IGF-1 Signaling, including Class II/III PI3Ks, β-Arrestin and SGK-1, Is Required in C. elegans to Maintain Pharyngeal Muscle Performance during Starvation

In C. elegans, pharyngeal pumping is regulated by the presence of bacteria. In response to food deprivation, the pumping rate rapidly declines by about 50–60%, but then recovers gradually to baseline levels on food after 24 hr. We used this system to study the role of insulin/IGF-1 signaling (IIS) i...
