In a recent study published in Science Advances, researchers present ecological and evolutionary perspectives for alcohol attraction among Drosophila melanogaster flies. These flies, which have ...

Life moves differently for some creatures—some animals live entire lifetimes faster than a single season can turn. Out in the wild, survival is not always about who lives the longest but who makes the ...

Herein, we present our ecotoxicology study on the effects of HDPE microplastics on the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster ... the locomotion of larvae and adult flies, the mass of female and male ...

Methods: This study investigates the effects of Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a novel insulin sensitizer and SGLT2 inhibitor, on aging ISCs using the Drosophila melanogaster ... of DAPA on the lifespan, ...

However, the evidence supporting some of the conclusions remains incomplete, and further mechanistic studies are needed to clarify how miR-283 affects normal aging and influences exercise adaptations.

Of these and more than 2,500 sites that had also been identified by previous studies, 66.9% of large increases in methylation occurred in DNA from male placentas and 33.1% from female placentas.

Researchers used male fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) that had been sleep-deprived owing to the genetically engineered activation of wake-promoting neurons. These flies were placed in ...
