Comparative antennal single‐nucleus transcriptomics reveals cell‐type‐dependent transcriptomic divergence in Bactrocera dorsalis, with similar structural cells but divergent sensory neurons. This neuronal diversification is associated with a distinct ammonia‐sensing pathway, linking female attraction to bird‐dropping‐associated cues with nutritional ...

OAF Blocks SIAH1‐Mediated Degradation of SCPX, a Therapeutic Strategy for MASLD
This study shows OAF directly binds to SCPX and inhibits its interaction with the E3 ligase SIAH1, thereby protecting SCPX from ubiquitin‐dependent degradation and stabilizing its levels. This OAF‐SCPX axis represents a novel pathway in lipid homeostasis, highlighting OAF as a promising therapeutic candidate for MASLD.

Recurrent Neurodevelopmental Disorder Associated With a Dominant‐Negative TOP2B H63Y Variant
ABSTRACT We describe a 7 year‐old boy with severe neurodevelopmental disorder, medically‐refractory epileptic encephalopathy, hyperkinetic movement disorder, hypotonia, cerebral and cerebellar atrophy and hypomyelination who was found to have a heterozygous de novo TOP2B NM_001330700.2:c.187C>T, p.(His63Tyr) variant.

Patterns of intron sequence evolution in Drosophila are dependent upon length and GC content [PDF]
Introns comprise a large fraction of eukaryotic genomes, yet little is known about their functional significance. Regulatory elements have been mapped to some introns, though these are believed to account for only a small fraction of genome wide intronic

Quantification of food intake in Drosophila [PDF]
Measurement of food intake in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is often necessary for studies of behaviour, nutrition and drug administration. There is no reliable and agreed method for measuring food intake of flies in undisturbed, steady state ...

Antistress property of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Athimadhura) on stress induced Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
Stress is defined as a condition that disturbs the normal function of the biological system or a condition that decreases fitness. The present study was to evaluate the antistress property of Glycyrrhiza glabra (Athimadura).

Experimental Control and Characterization of Autophagy in Drosophila [PDF]
Insects such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, which fundamentally reorganize their body plan during metamorphosis, make extensive use of autophagy for their normal development and physiology.

A comparative study of the short term cold resistance response in distantly related Drosophila species: the role of regucalcin and frost. [PDF]
The molecular basis of short term cold resistance (indexed as chill-coma recovery time) has been mostly addressed in D. melanogaster, where candidate genes (Dca (also known as smp-30) and Frost (Fst)) have been identified.

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