Glutaminase contributes to MYC-induced cell-autonomous autophagy and to RasV12-dependent non-autonomous autophagy in the Drosophila wing disc epithelium

Francesca Destefanis, Lorenzo Conci, Shivani Bajaj…·Paola Bellosta

This study shows that glutaminase (GLS) mediates Myc-induced autophagy in Drosophila wing discs and links Myc-dependent glutamine metabolism to non-autonomous autophagy in RasV12-transformed epithelia.

Noc1 downregulation induces nucleolar stress and upregulates p53 isoforms, with a robust increase of the truncated p53E isoform in Drosophila wing discs

Andrea Vutera Cuda, Shivani Bajaj, Valeria Manara, Paola Bellosta

The paper shows that Noc1 downregulation in Drosophila causes nucleolar stress, increases p53 levels, and specifically upregulates the truncated p53E isoform, which may modulate apoptosis.

From Flies to Humans: A Conserved Role of CEBPZ, NOC2L, and NOC3L in rRNA Processing and Tumorigenesis.

Guglielmo Rambaldelli, Valeria Manara, Andrea Vutera Cuda…·Paola Bellosta

This study identifies CEBPZ, NOC2L, and NOC3L as conserved regulators of rRNA processing and tumor growth, showing context-dependent expression patterns in cancers.
