BERGMANN SIZE CLINES: A SIMPLE EXPLANATION FOR THEIR OCCURRENCE IN ECTOTHERMS.

• Wayne A. Van Voorhies
• Evolution; international journal of organic…
• 1996

In general ectothermic organisms grow larger at both lower temperatures and higher latitudes. Adult size in the soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans reared at 10°C was approximately 33% greater than… (More)

Testing the "rate of living" model: further evidence that longevity and metabolic rate are not inversely correlated in Drosophila melanogaster.

• Wayne A. Van Voorhies, Aziz A. Khazaeli, James W. Curtsinger
• Journal of applied physiology
• 2004

In a recent study examining the relationship between longevity and metabolism in a large number of recombinant inbred Drosophila melanogaster lines, we found no indication of the inverse relationship… (More)

Broad oxygen tolerance in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.

• Wayne A. Van Voorhies, Samuel Ward
• The Journal of experimental biology
• 2000

This study examined the effects of oxygen tensions ranging from 0 to 90 kPa on the metabolic rate (rate of carbon dioxide production), movement and survivorship of the free-living soil nematode… (More)

Selected contribution: long-lived Drosophila melanogaster lines exhibit normal metabolic rates.

• Wayne A. Van Voorhies, Aziz A. Khazaeli, James W. Curtsinger
• Journal of applied physiology
• 2003

The use of model organisms, such as Drosophila melanogaster, provides a powerful method for studying mechanisms of aging. Here we report on a large set of recombinant inbred (RI) D. melanogaster… (More)

The longevity of Caenorhabditis elegans in soil.

• Wayne A. Van Voorhies, Jacqueline Fuchs, Stephen Thomas
• Biology letters
• 2005

Relatively simple model organisms such as yeast, fruit-flies and the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, have proven to be invaluable resources in biological studies. An example is the widespread use… (More)

Metabolic function in Drosophila melanogaster in response to hypoxia and pure oxygen.

• Wayne A. Van Voorhies
• The Journal of experimental biology
• 2009

This study examined the metabolic response of Drosophila melanogaster exposed to O(2) concentrations ranging from 0 to 21% and at 100%. The metabolic rate of flies exposed to graded hypoxia remained… (More)

Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy in Drosophila.

• Alicia M. Celotto, A. Carolin Frank, +5 authors Michael J. Palladino
• The Journal of neuroscience : the official…
• 2006

Mitochondrial encephalomyopathies are common and devastating multisystem genetic disorders characterized by neuromuscular dysfunction and tissue degeneration. Point mutations in the human… (More)

Response of Staphylococcus aureus to salicylate challenge.

• James T. Riordan, Arunachalam Muthaiyan, +4 authors John E Gustafson
• Journal of bacteriology
• 2007

Growth of Staphylococcus aureus with the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory salicylate reduces susceptibility of the organism to multiple antimicrobials. Transcriptome analysis revealed that growth of S.… (More)

Novel mutations affecting the Na, K ATPase alpha model complex neurological diseases and implicate the sodium pump in increased longevity

• Lesley J. Ashmore, Stacy L. Hrizo, Sarah M. Paul, Wayne A. Van Voorhies, Greg J Beitel, Michael J. Palladino
• Human Genetics
• 2009

Mutations affecting the Na+, K+ ATPase alpha subunit have been implicated in at least two distinct human diseases, rapid-onset dystonia Parkinsonism (RDP), and familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM).… (More)

DMPS-arsenic challenge test. II. Modulation of arsenic species, including monomethylarsonous acid (MMA(III)), excreted in human urine.

• H. Vasken Aposhian, Baoshan Zheng, +14 authors Ann Titcomb
• Toxicology and applied pharmacology
• 2000

The administration of sodium 2,3-dimercapto-1-propane sulfonate (DMPS) to humans chronically exposed to inorganic arsenic in their drinking water resulted in the increased urinary excretion of… (More)
