Control of Caenorhabditis elegans life history by nuclear receptor signal transduction.
Caenorhabditis elegans diapause, reproductive development, and life span are influenced by the DAF-12 nuclear hormone receptor signaling pathway. Here, we describe how this nuclear receptor integrates environmental and physiologic cues and regulates developmental age, reproduction and aging.
