Short-Term Evolutionary Features and Circadian Clock-Modulated Gene Expression Analysis of Piezo, nanchung, and αTubulin at 67C in a Romanian Population of Drosophila suzukii

Insects
Drosophila suzukii is a successful invasive insect species responsible for agricultural losses. The key to its prowess is the ability to swiftly adapt to new environments through various genetic mechanisms, including fast accommodation of mutations and ...

Animal models in molecular biology research: Challenges, ethical imperatives, and the path to human‐relevant translation

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how molecular biology research has shifted from using traditional animal models toward using methods that are more relevant to humans. It points out the main problems, differences between species, difficulty in reproducing results, moral issues, and lack of infrastructure that make translational accuracy harder to achieve ...

Amnesiac (AMN) gene and cnc/Nrf2-redox responses in fruit fly model of memory impairment co-administered Solanum leaves and donepezil

Pharmacological Research - Modern Chinese Medicine
Background: Considering that Alzheimer disease (AD) is a disease of multiple etiological theories, there is a continuous quest for multitarget approach for its management. In view of this, combinatory approach using therapeutic drugs and functional foods

A Universal Nucleoside‐to‐Nucleoside‐5′‐Triphosphate Enzyme Cascade Driven by Polyphosphate

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Nucleoside‐5′‐triphosphates (NTPs) are essential components for the generation of nucleic acids, yet their chemical synthesis is hindered by the low yield of nucleoside phosphorylation. Here, we present a universal, two‐enzyme nucleoside‐to‐NTP cascade that is driven by polyphosphate.

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

The effect of Clitoria ternatea L. flowers-derived silver nanoparticles on A549 and L-132 human cell lines and their antibacterial efficacy in Caenorhabditis elegans in vivo

Hybrid Advances
Clitoria ternatea L. flowers were used for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (CT-AgNPs) with a focus on their anticancer and antimicrobial properties. The CT-AgNPs were characterized using a variety of techniques, including UV–Vis spectroscopy,

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of

Establishing a role for specific nutrients in Drosophila dietary restriction

, 2009
Dietary restriction (DR), the reduction in food intake that falls short of starvation, has been shown to be the most robust and reproducible intervention to extend lifespan in diverse organisms ranging from yeast to mammals, including the fruit fly ...

The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

Search for new genes involved in Drosophila circadian rhythmicity: behavioural analysis of putative CRYPTOCHROME interacting proteins and molecular characterization of the ubiquitin protease USP5 [PDF]

, 2009
Drosophila melanogaster, il moscerino della frutta, si è rivelato un ottimo modello per identificare le basi molecolari dei ritmi circadiani. In particolare, il moscerino condivide con i mammiferi omologhi la gran parte dei geni coinvolti nell ...
