BioTechniquesGene expression assays that are based on quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) method are still very popular, therefore, we developed qDATA, an open-source R-based bioinformatics application that offers a quick and intuitive analysis of raw cycle ...

The smell of love in Drosophila [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 Odors are key sensory signals for social communication and food search in animals including insects. Drosophila melanogaster, is a powerful neurogenetic model commonly used to reveal molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in odorant detection. Males use olfaction together with other sensory modalities to find their mates.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Under environmental changes, the expression level of neuropeptide (NP) and neuropeptide receptor (NPR) genes changes to confer context‐dependent adaptation to the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Through finding more regulatory elements in the NPR genes in comparison with their ligands (NPs), we found that NPR‐biased transcriptional regulation ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Here, we introduced an intermittent electrical stimulation protocol mimicking the episodic nature of real‐life exercise in vitro by alternating low‐ and high‐frequency stimulation. In comparison with widely used continuous stimulation, it enhanced the rate of glucose and fatty acid oxidation, but not the myokine release.

Biological Control of Spotted-Wing Drosophila (Diptera: Drosophilidae)—Current and Pending Tactics
Journal of Integrated Pest Management, 2019 Spotted-wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura) (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is originally from Asia, and in the last decade it has become a global economic pest of small fruits and cherries.

The impact of Hnrnpl deficiency on transcriptional patterns of developing muscle cells
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We performed nanopore whole‐transcriptome sequencing comparing RNA from Hnrnpl‐knockdown versus control C2C12 myoblasts to investigate the contributions of Hnrnpl to muscle development. Our results indicate that Hnrnpl regulates the expression of genes involved with Notch signaling and skeletal muscle, particularly splicing patterns of specific muscle ...
