The researchers from the TalTech molecular neurobiology laboratory headed by professor Tõnis Timmusk used the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster to develop a novel disease model for Pitt-Hopkins ...
When the macrophages’ ability to consume dying cancer cells or Upd3 production was decreased, tumor growth was significantly ...
Compared to mammalian model systems,Drosophila offers the power of rapid and high-throughput genetic analysis, with a generation time ten times faster than the mouse. Further, fly models have now been ...

By utilizing a well-established Drosophila midgut model for stem cell aging biology, the researchers revealed that vitamin D receptor knockdown in ECs induced ISC proliferation, EC death, ISC ...
This fly model shows a gradual increase in the number of α-synuclein-containing inclusion bodies, and this was unaltered in flies also expressing Hsp70. In addition, Drosophila Hsp70 was found in the ...
Gliomas are the most common brain tumors. Adult gliomas frequently present molecular alterations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and its associated signaling pathways. In recent work, ...
The Drosophila melanogaster, or fruit fly, can be used as an alternative animal model, instead of a mouse, for research related to inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), finds a study from a team of ...
