This study shows that expressing G4C2 repeats in Drosophila mushroom bodies causes age-dependent TDP-43 pathology and dementia-like phenotypes, with Dlp/GPC6 playing a role in synaptic loss.

The paper identifies sex-specific chemosensory gene expression in Hyles lineata, highlighting odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) as candidates for host plant selection in females.

The paper presents a long-read genome assembly of the Chinese mantis and identifies nociceptive ion channels, revealing evolutionary patterns across arthropods.

This study uses a Drosophila model to investigate TDP-43 proteinopathy in ALS and FTD, identifying shared and circuit-specific molecular targets.

This study counts brain cells in the Black Soldier Fly across development and sex, revealing changes in cell numbers and regional differences.
