Thus, mdl-1 likely acts both in the intestine and the germline to influence age-related mortality. In addition, intestine-limited rescue of mdl-1 increased lifespan but not to wild type levels. Thus, MDL-1, like its mammalian orthologs, is an inhibitor of cell proliferation and growth that slows progression of an age-related pathology in C. mdl-1 and daf-2 mutant germlines are hyperplastic and hypoplastic, respectively. Opposite phenotypes were seen in daf-2 mutants, i.e. During aging, unfertilized oocytes in the uterus develop into tumors, whose development was accelerated by mdl-1(tm311). mdl-1 mutant hermaphrodites also lay increased numbers of unfertilized oocytes. The deletion allele mdl-1(tm311) shortened lifespan, and did so significantly more so in long-lived daf-2 mutants implying that mdl-1(+) contributes to effects of daf-2 on lifespan.

elegans germline proliferation and aging. elegans, increased lifespan in daf-2 insulin/IGF-1 receptor mutants is accompanied by up-regulation of the MDL-1 Mad basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor. Wood Jr.’s notorious 1955 stinker Bride of the Monster, also starring Lugosi as another mad scientist up to no good, but this time with the assistance of mutant Tor Johnson and an atomic octopus.In C. Those films are 1964’s The Last Man on Earth, a loose adaptation of Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend starring the legendary Vincent Price Roger Corman’s 1961 monster-comedy Creature from the Haunted Sea, and given how utterly silly-looking the title monster appears I can only imagine it’ll look a thousand times sillier in color and two features starring Bela Lugosi: The Devil Bat, an underrated 1940 chiller casting Lugosi as a mad scientist who breeds a big, bloodsucking bat that he uses as his instrument of vengeance, and Edward D.

On October 21st Legend Films will be releasing several newly colorized old horror films onto DVD that most probably never thought would warrant the colorization treatment. Don’t tell that to Legend Films restoring and colorizing black & white movies is their bread & butter. Besides, something about the colorization process has just never looked right to me.

I’m with most people in thinking that if a movie was made in black & white, then it ought to be viewed in black & white. Here I thought this whole colorization thing had more or less died out in the Eighties.
