Knocking down lit-1 by RNAi in mir-71(lf); lin-42(lf) double mutants caused no significant suppression of the VPC timing defects of mir-71(lf) worms. To determine the functional relationship of miR-71 with LIN-42 and LIT-1, mir-71(lf); lin-42(lf) L1 worms were starved for 4 d and recovered on lit-1(RNAi) plates. The strong suppression of the mir-71(lf) defect by hbl-1(RNAi), and the relatively weak effect of miR-71 on hbl-1 expression, are consistent with the idea that miR-71 exerts its role by modulating activities of multiple genes related to hbl-1 function in developmental timing. We then compared the expression of a hbl-1 3′UTR reporter (18) in the mir-71(lf) mutants with that in wild type and found that the expression of this reporter was slightly derepressed at L3 in the mir-71 mutant (Fig. 4 F and G).
MiR-71 regulates vulval cell division during recovery of starved L1 worms. We thus asked whether miR-71 was required for the reinitiation of developmental programs during the recovery phase after L1 starvation. These results indicate that miR-71 is not essential for arresting seam cell or M-cell divisions during L1 diapause, suggesting that miR-71 function is distinct from DAF-16 function. DAF-16 (the FOXO homolog in C. elegans) has been shown to play an important role in cell cycle arrest and developmental progression partly by promoting cki-1 expression in some somatic cells during L1 arrest (2). S1A indicated a dominant role of intestinal miRNAs in regulating L1 starvation survival.
Mental health recovery doesn’t happen in isolation, it affects and involves others too. They are guided by qualified clinicians and include therapeutic approaches such as somatic movement, art-based expression, and trauma-informed group processing. At Khiron Clinics, we provide group therapy in carefully structured formats designed to support nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and embodied healing. These sessions are intentionally structured and led by qualified therapists trained in somatic and experiential approaches. In-person group therapy sessions at Khiron Clinics support the development of emotional regulation, embodied awareness, and relational safety in a guided, trauma-informed setting.
We don’t have to give people everything they ask for; we just have to visibly do our best, care about the result, and be reasonable and respectful about it. I’ve already talked about the links between play and health as part of my Talking Points series – twice, in fact, given that resilience is a key element of mental health. We were rightly concerned that the containment lockdowns would heighten the risk to individuals in abusive domestic situation; this is a clear risk factor. Its own obnoxiousness driving people away from the entire medium only exacerbates this grip; people get a taste and never make it to the good stuff.
What are the stages of family recovery?
- We found that the 3′UTRs of several genes of the InsR pathway, including unc-31, age-1, pdk-1, akt-2, and sgk-1, contain predicted miR-71 targeting sites (as predicted by TargetScan and mirWIP).
- (E) Fluorescence and DIC images showing that the unc-31 3′UTR reporter was repressed in mir-71(+)worms (2/2 transgenic lines) but not in mir-71(lf) worms (4/4 transgenic lines).
- The eggs were transferred to plates seeded with HB101 and bleached again 3 d later.
- They give people a way to stay engaged with their own care and allow families and clinicians to feel more confident in supporting them.
- Three days later, the number of worms that were L2 or older was recorded as number of survived worms (Ns), and the survival rate was calculated as Ns/Np, which is an estimation of survived worms in the whole population.
- Recovery from addiction is a journey that would be helped by involving the entire family unit.
I recommend turning it off to see how it impacts this specific image. In normally exposed images, this method can lead to oversaturation, so I usually reduce it using revery play other modules like Color Balance RGB. The LAB tone curve is mostly me experimenting to see how it affects color saturation, particularly in the Blue and Magenta spectrum, which I often adjust.
Division I Facts
And yet, thanks to network effects, the notocratic advantage of a massive marketing warchest, and other issues discussed in that Monopoly post, Monopoly has a stranglehold on the form. Sore losers who turn genuinely vicious if defeated, or even if defeat seems imminent, and punish other players for playing well – or just bad luck on the dice. He’s far from the only one who has a negative reaction to play as a result of traumatic associations. I particularly appreciate the courage it took to share his story.

However, we found that the reporter transgene with the lin-42 3′UTR was significantly repressed in wild-type worms, but derepressed in the mir-71(lf) worms (Fig. 4 H and I). In starved L1 worms, we detected only a slight increase in the mRNA level of hbl-1 in mir-71 mutants compared with that in wild type (∼10%), which may not be biologically significant. These results indicate that miR-71 plays a significant role in larval development of animals recovering from L1 diapause and likely does so by regulating the expression of components of the insulin receptor/DAF-16 pathway, as well as factors acting downstream, or in parallel to, DAF-16. If this were true, the starved mir-71(lf); daf-16(lf) double-mutant worms should show a slow growth phenotype similar to that of daf-16(lf) worms, but no specific VPC timing defect.
(D) A representative chart of the L1 starvation survival rates of different miRNA mutants. However, it remains unclear how, and to what extent, miRNAs coordinate animal survival and development in response to stresses. Unlike dauer diapause, L1 diapause is not accompanied by life cycle changes and has not been shown to require certain signaling pathways that control the formation of dauer diapause such as TGF-β signaling (daf-1, daf-7) and nuclear hormone receptor (daf-12) (2, 3). When late, first larval stage (L1) worms sense unfavorable conditions, they enter an alternative and long-lived larval stage called dauer larvae (or dauer diapause). The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans responds to starvation by entering developmental arrest at multiple stages of its life cycle (1).
- Our genetic analysis indicated that for both L1 diapause survival and developmental recovery functions, miR-71 regulates expressions of genes in both the insulin receptor-dependent and -independent pathways.
- It helps families seek the right support and begin the process of healing together.
- Games without play are contests or performances, or both – but not true games.
- We gratefully acknowledge the support of the OpenReview Sponsors.
- It is also worth mentioning that multiple components of the InsR pathway, including age-1, pdk-1, akt-2, and daf-16, are predicted to be targets of the let-7 family miRNAs.
- Furthermore, the observed derepression of individual genes by mir-71(lf) seemed too weak to account for the phenotype, consistent with the idea that a prominent phenotype of an miRNA mutation is caused by the collective effect of changing expression in many genes, an important property of miRNA-mediated gene regulation.
Laura explains that you are to imagine a scenario where you would anticipate feeling that without alcohol/drinking, it would be incomplete, not fun, boring etc. She writes about a practice she learned in therapy, a form of written visualization, where you play two different tapes forward (hmm… I thought there was only one…). A life of freedom and rid of the toxicity that drives us further and further away from who we really are. What playing the tape forward does is remind me.

It helps maintain a balance where the family supports the recovering addict without enabling their addiction. Individual GFP reporter constructs for candidate genes (4 ng/μL) and the mCherry internal control plasmid (4 ng/μL) were mixed with unc-119 rescuing plasmid (20 ng/μL) and pBluescript KS+ (72 ng/μL) and coinjected into unc-119(ed3) and mir-71(n4115); unc-119(ed3) worms following standard protocols (32). To compare the survival rates between strains, we simulated the survival rate of each genotype to 100 arbitrary “individual worms” and performed the log-rank test in Graphpad Prism 4.
Emotional distress is also very common among family members. In this article, we explore how families can support the path to sobriety, the various dynamics, and the resources available for both the individual and their loved ones.

Mutating miR-71 drastically reduces the survival rate of animals in L1 diapause, and the effect can be suppressed by mutations of insulin receptor pathway genes age-1 and unc-31. The effect observed in ain-1(lf) mutants is likely the consequence of the combined effects of attenuating functions of these individual miRNAs. To identify individual miRNAs that play prominent roles in L1 diapause, we screened 72 available mutant strains of individual miRNAs and miRNA families (87 miRNAs in total) using the L1 starvation assay. (B) Survival rate of single and double mutants to indicate the functional relationship between ain-1 and age-1.
Which leads me to add to my wholehearted endorsement of Gene’s call for libraries to make allowances for people to avoid play and games. The fact that family game night might, as Gene remarked, be a source of trauma is primarily an indictment of the state of those families – but given play’s links to health and the fact that games can heal and promote bonding and caring, it seems unwise to ignore the qualities of the games they are playing. It’s easy to take this as a joke – families fight over board games, oh well, It’s Only A Game – but if you dig even slightly into this, you find that some of these experiences are genuinely traumatic, as one would expect might be necessary to give someone a lifelong aversion to an entire medium. Monopoly is… as legendary for spawning bitter family fights and for dragging on interminably even though it’s obvious who’s going to win as it is for being widely played.
