Streets for Pandemic Response & Recovery

This will be followed by an ‘ex post evaluation’ in 2028, once the measures included in the recovery plans are fully implemented. The RRF Regulation requires that the Commission provides the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee and the Committee of the Regions with a mid-term evaluation on the implementation of the Recovery and Resilience Facility. Member States can also amend their plan if they can demonstrate that objective circumstances render the implementation of certain milestones and targets unfeasible. The RRF is also crucial for implementing the REPowerEU plan – the Commission’s response to the socio-economic hardships and global energy market disruption caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

• We further examined worms recovering from 4 d of L1 starvation and found that around 90% of the mir-71(lf) mutants displayed retarded vulval precursor cell (VPC) division, compared with less than 5% in wild type (Fig. 4A).
• These results suggest that a significant portion of the miR-71 activities in L1 diapause survival may be devoted to regulating the activities of UNC-31–mediated InsR/PI3K signaling and that the rest of miR-71 activity may regulate UNC-31–independent pathways.
• The effect observed in ain-1(lf) mutants is likely the consequence of the combined effects of attenuating functions of these individual miRNAs.

MiR-71 regulates vulval cell division during recovery of starved L1 worms. 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).

Previous studies showed that the release of postdocking calcium-regulated dense-core vesicles, the insulin receptor (InsR) pathway, the AMPK pathway, and protein chaperones are required for the long-term survival of starved L1 worms (2–4). 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). The coordinated entrance into developmental arrest, long-term survival, and the reinitiation of development upon food availability are important biological processes to investigate. Different organisms have developed versatile growth arrest strategies to overcome starvation-induced metabolic and developmental problems. The presented results indicate that interactions between multiple miRNAs and likely a large number of their mRNA targets in multiple pathways regulate the response to starvation-induced L1 diapause.
Elegans Genetic Center (reference 257) and an N2 strain from the laboratory stock, respectively. Wild-type strains A and B are an N2 strain recently obtained from the C. (A) Survival rate curves of wild-type and mutant strains, as indicated. This is consistent with the previous reports that AIN-1 and AIN-2 are functional homologs with overlapping biochemical roles (16, 17). The roles of InsRs have also been implicated in arresting the cell cycle in germ cells and a portion of somatic cells during L1 diapause (2, 4).
