Fluorescence microscopy-based sensitive method to quantify dopaminergic neurodegeneration in a Drosophila model of Parkinson’s disease

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
Death of dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta of the human brain is the characteristic pathological feature of Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Effect of alloxan on the locomotor ability and developmental stages of Drosophila melanogaster (Oregon-R)

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2022
Background Various bleaching agents are used in food industries among which some reacts to form alloxan. Therefore, the alloxan can indirectly enter a human body and thus form an important aspects for studying its effect on the development.

p120 catenin is required for the stress response in Drosophila [PDF]

, 2013
p120ctn is a ubiquitously expressed core component of cadherin junctions and essential for vertebrate development. Surprisingly, Drosophila p120ctn (dp120ctn) is dispensable for adherens junctions and development, which has discouraged Drosophila ...

Drosophila melanogaster Chemosensory Pathways as Potential Targets to Curb the Insect Menace

Insects, 2022
From a unicellular bacterium to a more complex human, smell and taste form an integral part of the basic sensory system. In fruit flies Drosophila melanogaster, the behavioral responses to odorants and tastants are simple, though quite sensitive, and ...

Acute Exposure to Arsenic Affects Pupal Development and Neurological Functions in Drosophila melanogaster

Toxics, 2023
Millions of people in developing countries are affected by arsenic (As) toxicity and its prevalence. Arsenic’s detrimental effects on humans have been amplified by an unacceptable level of exposure to food and drinking water, the ongoing rise in ...

Macrophage-derived upd3 Cytokine causes impaired glucose homeostasis and reduced lifespan in drosophila fed a lipid-rich diet [PDF]

, 2014
Long-term consumption of fatty foods is associated with obesity, macrophage activation and inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and a reduced lifespan. We took advantage of Drosophila genetics to investigate the role of macrophages and the pathway(s) that ...

Roles of Drosophila Hox Genes in the Assembly of Neuromuscular Networks and Behavior

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Hox genes have been known for specifying the anterior-posterior axis (AP) in bilaterian body plans. Studies in vertebrates have shown their importance in developing region-specific neural circuitry and diversifying motor neuron pools. In Drosophila, they
