Behavioral dissection of hunger states in Drosophila

K. J. Weaver, S. Raju, R. A. Rucker, T. Chakraborty, R. A. Holt, S. Pletcher

The paper distinguishes hedonic and homeostatic hunger states in Drosophila by analyzing behaviors and neuronal activity, identifying the PAM to β MB circuit as involved in hedonic feeding motivation.

Encoding of hunger by the neuronal epigenome slows aging in Drosophila

K. J. Weaver, R. A. Holt, E. Henry, S. D. Pletcher

This study shows that encoding hunger through neuronal epigenome changes slows aging in Drosophila by altering histone acetylation and BCAA metabolism.
