  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Smoking flies: testing the effect of tobacco cigarettes on heart function of Drosophila melanogaster
    Manuela Santalla, Lucía Pagola, Ivana Gómez, Darío Balcazar, Carlos A. Valverde, Paola Ferrero
    Biology Open 2021 10: bio055004 doi: 10.1242/bio.055004 Published 15 February 2021

    Summary: Nicotine, a substance present in tobacco, resembles insecticide compounds such as neonicotinoids, and affects the heart function in Drosophila melanogaster.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    A glucose-supplemented diet enhances gut barrier integrity in Drosophila
    Anthony Galenza, Edan Foley
    Biology Open 2021 : bio.056515 doi: 10.1242/bio.056515 Published 12 February 2021
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    A modifier screen identifies regulators of cytoskeletal architecture as mediators of Shroom-dependent changes in tissue morphology
    Jeffrey D. Hildebrand, Adam D. Leventry, Omoregie P. Aideyman, John C. Majewski, James A. Haddad, Dawn C. Bisi, Nancy Kaufmann
    Biology Open 2021 10: bio055640 doi: 10.1242/bio.055640 Published 3 February 2021

    Summary: Using Drosophila as a model system, we identify F-actin and microtubules as important determinants of how cells and tissues respond to Shroom induced contractility.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Wound-induced polyploidization is dependent on Integrin-Yki signaling
    Rose Besen-McNally, Kayla J. Gjelsvik, Vicki P. Losick
    Biology Open 2021 10: bio055996 doi: 10.1242/bio.055996 Published 25 January 2021

    Summary: Conserved focal adhesion genes, mys and Fak, enable efficient wound repair by inducing polyploid cell growth via cell fusion and Yki-dependent endoreplication.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Drosophila MICOS knockdown impairs mitochondrial structure and function and promotes mitophagy in muscle tissue
    Li-jie Wang, Tian Hsu, Hsiang-ling Lin, Chi-yu Fu
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio054262 doi: 10.1242/bio.054262 Published 3 December 2020

    Summary: Drosophila MICOS knockdown impairs mitochondrial structure and function and promotes mitophagy in muscle tissue.

  • METHODS & TECHNIQUES
    Quantifying Drosophila adults with the use of a smartphone
    Evgenia K. Karpova, Evgenii G. Komyshev, Mikhail A. Genaev, Natalya V. Adonyeva, Dmitry A. Afonnikov, Margarita A. Eremina, Nataly E. Gruntenko
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio054452 doi: 10.1242/bio.054452 Published 8 October 2020

    Summary: We offer a highly accurate and efficient method for an automatic calculation of Drosophila melanogaster imagoes with the use of the SeedCounter application for mobile devices running Android operating system.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Sleep-length differences are associated with altered longevity in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster
    Jacqueline B. Thompson, Oanh Oanh Su, Nou Yang, Johannes H. Bauer
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio054361 doi: 10.1242/bio.054361 Published 16 September 2020

    Summary: We show that fruit flies with shortened sleep patterns have decreased aging rates and increased longevity, while flies with disrupted circadian rhythm have decreased longevity. Our data suggests that circadian and sleep systems interact differentially with mechanisms of aging.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Vps54 regulates Drosophila neuromuscular junction development and interacts genetically with Rab7 to control composition of the postsynaptic density
    Prajal H. Patel, Emily C. Wilkinson, Emily L. Starke, Malea R. McGimsey, J. Todd Blankenship, Scott A. Barbee
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio053421 doi: 10.1242/bio.053421 Published 25 August 2020

    Summary: The retrograde vesicle tethering factor, Vps54, regulates development of the Drosophila larval NMJ. Moreover, presynaptic Vps54 interacts genetically with the small GTPase, Rab7, to control NMJ growth and postsynaptic density composition.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Compartment and cell-type specific hypoxia responses in the developing Drosophila brain
    Martin Baccino-Calace, Daniel Prieto, Rafael Cantera, Boris Egger
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio053629 doi: 10.1242/bio.053629 Published 18 August 2020

    Summary: A fluorescent biosensor reveals cell type specific hypoxia levels in the Drosophila brain in unprecedented detail. It paves the way for further functional studies addressing the role of oxygen in neural stem cell maintenance and differentiation.

  • METHODS & TECHNIQUES
    A gum Arabic assisted sustainable drug delivery system for adult Drosophila
    Qiying Liang, Peng Ma, Qi Zhang, Youjie Yin, Ping Wang, Saifei Wang, Yao Zhang, Ruolei Han, Hansong Deng
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio052241 doi: 10.1242/bio.052241 Published 14 June 2020

    Summary: Drug insolubility and a lack of a continuous delivery system are big challenges for large-scale compound screenings in flies. The authors developed a U-GLAD system that can successfully solve these issues.
