“…C. elegans have been widely used as a model for ageing [ 32 ], with their short lifespan and rapid reproduction rate facilitating straightforward and fast study of this process. C.elegans are highly amenable to neurobiology, as they have a fully mapped neural connectome [ 33 , 34 ], in which each neuron is characterised in its neurochemistry, connectivity and functionality, often with attributable behavioural phenotypes to each neural circuit to test [ 35 , 36 ]. Furthermore, the majority of neurotransmitters utilised in neuronal signalling in the human brain, are also produced and utilised in the C. elegans neuronal system [ 30 , 37 , 38 ].…”

“…C. elegans present a range of PD relevant behavioural and organismal phenotypes to characterise and test, as outputs of gene function, which range from specific dopaminergic neuron attributable behaviours [ 36 , 48–50 ], in vivo microscopy [ 51 ], to organismal responses to environmental stressors [ 35 ], as summarised in Figure 2 . Comprehensive and recent reviews of PD relevant phenotypes in C. elegans can be found elsewhere [ 21 , 35 ], and open access databases such as WormBase and WormBook contain extensive, up-to-date information on organism genes, C. elegans biology and experimental protocols [ 52 , 53 ].…”
