- Context-specific comparison of sleep acquisition systems in Drosophila
Summary: Multiple sleep acquisition systems provide efficient and accurate methods for measuring sleep duration in Drosophila, while video tracking and multibeam analysis allow for increased flexibility of behavioral paradigms and greater resolution of sleep architecture.
- Epigenetic regulator Lid maintains germline stem cells through regulating JAK-STAT signaling pathway activity
Summary: This study provides new insights into the biological functions of a histone demethylase and sheds light on the interaction between epigenetic mechanisms and signaling pathways in regulating stem cell activities.
