They are coupled to light receptors similar to the ones in your eyes.

It's these receptors that are actually very important.

So in a daf 2 mutant you see that I have the X drawn here through the receptor.

Now let's zoom in on it here, so we can see it in more detail.

So what about the normal worm?

How's he doing?

But you know there is much more to it,

But my favorite effect on the body is actually on the heart.

I just told you that, if you make a mutation in the daf 2 gene cell, that you get a receptor that doesn't work as well the animal lives longer.

I mean, I empathize with that person but I don't literally feel the touch.

These hormones are similar to hormones that we have in our bodies.

I'd like to leave you with the following thought

What that means is if you can tickle the fancy of this NMDA receptor, you'll put in more of these ordinary AMPA receptors into the synapse, and then the synapse will become stronger.

Why?

And why?

And the daf 2 gene encodes a hormone receptor.

And the other part is on the inside where it sends signals into the cell.

What is the latest report on Sgt. Jones?

She is very ill.

Take this example from rats.

Because our pheromones matched our olfactory receptors.

The altered immune receptors weren't effective.

So what you see in the picture there is a cell with a hormone receptor in red punching through the edge of the cell.

And there's several ways of doing this, but one of the most popular ones involves using antibodies.

And when it goes crazy, what it does is it activates all this machinery down here, and the effect of all that machinery is to put in more of these ordinary boring receptors.

Look at this kind, the NR receptor, also called the NMDA receptor.

Same thing with Receptin if you've got breast cancer.

His condition changed for the worse.

Tom's condition worsened.

So for instance, a biotechnology company has now found broadly neutralizing antibodies to influenza, as well as a new antibody target on the flu virus.

What I could have, is this antibody,

Seth Berkley Really cool video, isn't it?

But it wouldn't stop there.

Researchers Identify New Receptor Complex in Brain

This is how this works.

So in the fetal life, those testes are pumping out testosterone.

And it's almost like an ideological reaction,

The condition of the patient turned for the better.

Antibodies give a new lease of life.

Then it hit me.

So think of it this way.

So our Pancreas is producing insulin and putting it into our bloodstream, so it's there to be used. but a situation can arise where the receptors are not working properly, and they have been desensitized to insulin.

When it is, it helps the rat cope with stressful situations.

I analyzed your blood isolating the receptor compounds and the proteinbased catalyst.

So after we made our discoveries with little C. elegans, people who worked on other kinds of animals started asking, if we made the same daf 2 mutation, the hormone receptor mutation, in other animals, will they live longer?
