Recurrent Modification of a Conserved Cis-Regulatory Element Underlies Fruit Fly Pigmentation Diversity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The development of morphological traits occurs through the collective action of networks of genes connected at the level of gene expression. As any node in a network may be a target of evolutionary change, the recurrent targeting of the same node would ...

Evaluation of the Dual Impact of Nanotechnologies on Health and Environment Through Alternative Bridging Models

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how alternative invertebrate and small‐vertebrate models advance the evaluation of nanomaterials across medicine and environmental science. By bridging cellular and organismal levels, these models enable integrated assessment of toxicity, biodistribution, and therapeutic performance.

Rational Design of Optical Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotube‐Based Nanosensors with Biological Recognition Elements

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This Review focuses on assessing and providing perspective on the field of rationally‐designed optical sensors constructed with single‐walled carbon nanotubes. The literature is reviewed and evaluated for SWCNT‐based sensors constructed with biomolecular recognition elements, including proteins, peptides, and oligonucleotides, as well as their methods ...

A Cold Stress‐Activated Endocrine Sentinel Chemical Hormone Promotes Insect Survival via Mitochondrial Adaptations Through the Adipokinetic Hormone Receptor

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Seasonal cold adaptation is vital for insect survival, yet the molecular mechanisms linking diapause to mitochondrial resilience remain largely unresolved. We identify ascaroside C9 (asc‐C9) as a key endocrine signal that enhances diapause survival during cold stress by activating the AKHR–PGC1α–UCP4 axis, thereby driving cold‐induced lipolysis and ...

The behavioral repertoire of Drosophila melanogaster in the presence of two predator species that differ in hunting mode.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, has proven to be an excellent model organism for genetic, genomic and neurobiological studies. However, relatively little is known about the natural history of D. melanogaster.

Peptidomics in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yesBriefings in Functional Genomics and Proteomics, 2003
In analogy with proteomics technology, where all proteins expressed in a cell or tissue are analysed, the peptidomic approach aims at the simultaneous visualisation and identification of the whole peptidome of a cell or tissue, ie all expressed peptides with their post-translational modifications. With nanoscale liquid chromatography (nanoLC), combined

Renal neuroendocrine control of desiccation and cold tolerance by Drosophila suzukii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Neuropeptides are central to the regulation of physiological, and behavioural processes in insects, directly impacting cold and desiccation survival.

Endocytic Control of Cell‐Autonomous and Non‐Cell‐Autonomous Functions of p53

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
NUMB Ex3‐containing isoforms localize to the plasma membrane, where they recruit p53 through SNX9 and direct it to multivesicular bodies and exosomes. Exported p53 is taken up by neighboring cells and activates nuclear programs, revealing an intercellular, exosome‐based pathway that might help establish a tumor‐suppressive microenvironment.

Modulatory effect of Picralima Nitida on oxidative stress: Cobalt, thiol, total protein in Drosophila melanogaster exposed to lead

open access: yesSokoto Journal of Medical Laboratory Science, 2023
Drosophila melanogaster, commonly known as fruit fly, vinegar fly, is a small model organism used in the study of various disciplines. D. biochemical, neurological and physiological sim ilarities with human beings and has about 75% functional homologs of

Design and construction of a new Drosophila species, D.synthetica, by synthetic regulatory evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Here, I merge the principles of synthetic biology^1,2^ and regulatory evolution^3-11^ to create a new species^12-15^ with a minimal set of known elements.
