Mechanisms of vision in the fruit fly [PDF]
Current Opinion in Insect Science, 2019 Vision is essential to maximize the efficiency of daily tasks such as feeding, avoiding predators or finding mating partners. An advantageous model is Drosophila melanogaster, since it offers tools that allow genetic and neuronal manipulation with high spatial and temporal resolution, which can be combined with behavioral, anatomical and physiological ...

Nociception in fruit fly larvae
Frontiers in Pain Research, 2023 Nociception, the process of encoding and processing noxious or painful stimuli, allows animals to detect and avoid or escape from potentially life-threatening stimuli. Here, we provide a brief overview of recent technical developments and studies that have advanced our understanding of the Drosophila larval nociceptive circuit and demonstrated its ...

Intrinsic activity in the fly brain gates visual information during behavioral choices [PDF]
, 2010 The small insect brain is often described as an input/output system that executes reflex-like behaviors. It can also initiate neural activity and behaviors intrinsically, seen as spontaneous behaviors, different arousal states and sleep. However, less is

Imaging mitophagy in the fruit fly [PDF]
Autophagy, 2018 Loss-of-function mutations in the genes encoding PRKN/parkin and PINK1 cause autosomal recessive Parkinson disease (PD). Seminal work in Drosophila revealed that loss of park/parkin and Pink1 causes prominent mitochondrial pathology in flight muscle and, to a lesser extent, in dopaminergic neurons.
