This paper shows Xrp1 contributes to genome integrity through p53-dependent DNA damage response and p53-independent cell competition in Drosophila.

This study identifies tumor-associated macrophages as critical for brain metastasis by showing their role in basement membrane remodeling in a Drosophila model.

This study models a MOPD II-associated Pericentrin variant in Drosophila, showing it disrupts dimerization and pericentriolar material recruitment, leading to developmental and cellular defects.

This study identifies Xrp1 as a master regulator that triggers cell competition and translation deficits in response to ribosomal stress.

This study shows that Dmrad51 is essential for somatic tissue maintenance in Drosophila, causing defects in larval and pupal stages, low temperature sensitivity, and genomic damage.
