... the destruction of the biological sample, with a concomitant loss of spatial information. Fluorescent metabolic sensors and probes are among the most user-friendly techniques for collecting metabolic information with spatial resolution. In a previous work, we have adapted to an animal system, Drosophila...

...Yan Wang; Roger Lopez-Bellido; Xiaojiao Huo; Annemieke Kavelaars; Michael J. Galko ABSTRACT Early phase diabetes is often accompanied by pain sensitization. In Drosophila , the insulin receptor ( InR ) regulates the persistence of injury-induced thermal nociceptive sensitization. Whether Drosophila...

... of neural circuits in both vertebrates and invertebrates, and may also contribute to the pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric disorders, such as autism and schizophrenia. In the peripheral nervous system (PNS), class IV dendritic arborization (da) sensory neurons of Drosophila , selectively remove the dendrites...

... show that a 24-amino-acid sequence from the Drosophila proapoptotic protein Hid's tail anchor (HTA) domain can target exogenous proteins to the mitochondria in Drosophila cells. We use this HTA tag to target the Drosophila centriole cartwheel protein Sas6 to the mitochondria, and show that both...

... the pathway. However, visualising ERK activity in vivo with high temporal resolution remains a challenge in Drosophila . We adapted a kinase translocation reporter (KTR) for use in Drosophila , which shuttles out of the nucleus when phosphorylated by ERK. We show that ERK-KTR faithfully reports endogenous ERK...

It has not been ascertained if the anatomically disparate Drosophila MAG shares developmental parallels with those of the mammalian prostate. Here we show that the development of Drosophila mesoderm-derived MAG...
