Desaturase-dependent secretory functions of hepatocyte-like cells control systemic lipid metabolism during starvation in Drosophila. Li J, Huang K, Dibra I, Liu Y, Perrimon N, Simons M. 2024 11:rs.3.rs-5566817. doi: 10.21203/rs.3.rs-5566817/v1. PMID: 39711529
Our latest paper by @ItsJoshSurely in collaboration with @cerys_manning has been accepted just in time for Christmas! We show that protrusions present on spinal cord neural progenitors mediate long-range signalling extending it beyond immediate neighbours https://t.co/vXPRR3ZqA0

We have a #PhDposition to investigate host - #microbiome interactions using #Drosophila and model gut #bacteria. Details in the picture attached. Be part of our new group @COSHeidelberg in beautiful Heidelberg! Please RT
Our latest preprint. @L_Lampe, @clarenewell24 and colleagues figured out how metamorphosing #Drosophila avoid drying out. The larva makes a lipid barrier of hyper-long hydrocarbons (>C27 and longer) and stores it in the fat body until needed by the pupa.
