    • Natural Zeitgebers Under Temperate Conditions Cannot Compensate for the Loss of a Functional Circadian Clock in Timing of a Vital Behavior in Drosophila

    The adaptive significance of adjusting behavioral actions to the best time of the day appears apparent. Laboratory research implicated an essential position of circadian clocks in behavioral timing and rhythmicity. But, latest research on clock-mutant animals questioned this significance below extra naturalistic settings, as numerous clock mutants confirmed almost regular diel exercise rhythms below seminatural

    • Downregulation of TOP2 modulates neurodegeneration caused by GGGGCC expanded repeats

    GGGGCC repeats in a non-coding area of the C9orf72 gene have been recognized as a significant genetic reason for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia. We beforehand confirmed that the GGGGCC expanded repeats alone had been ample to trigger neurodegeneration in Drosophila. Current proof signifies that GGGGCC expanded repeats can modify numerous gene transcriptomes. To
