Genetic profiles for neuroprotection by resveratrol and LiCl in 128Q nematodes. Data are mean ± SEM for > 200 nematodes in each group and a total of at least 4 independent experiments in all panels. ns: not significant. (A) Resveratrol is dependent on bar-1/ß-catenin, ucp-4/UCP and antioxidant enzymes for neuroprotection in C. elegans. Resveratrol protection is lost in bar-1/ß-catenin, ucp-4/UCP, ctl-2/catalase and sod-3/superoxide dismutase mutants. **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001 versus DMSO-treated 128Q animals. (B) LiCl sustains the function of 128Q nematode neurons in a manner that is partially dependent on daf-16/FOXO, with no effects detected in 19Q nematodes. *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 versus DMSO-treated 128Q animals.
