Effects of 6-OHDA on dopamine neurons in nsy-1(eg691) versus wild-type N2. (A–B) Examples of effects of 6-OHDA on dopamine neuron processes in the C. elegans head (CEP neurons). (A) Damage to dopaminergic neuron processes in a wild-type animal after exposure to 6-OHDA. (B) Intact dopaminergic neurons in a nsy-1(eg691) animal after the same exposure to 6-OHDA as in (A). Processes are unaffected in this individual. (C) Comparison of effects of 6-OHDA on dopamine neurons in wild-type N2 and nsy-1(eg691) mutants, which are significantly resistant (p<.05).
