This study identifies gene expression changes in adolescent rat hippocampus due to prenatal ethanol exposure, highlighting cell adhesion, immune response, and toxin metabolism pathways.

This study identifies superdeath, a Drosophila metallopeptidase, as a modifier of ER stress-induced apoptosis by acting upstream of CDK5 in the JNK pathway, without affecting the unfolded protein response.

This study identifies Baldspot/ELOVL6 as a modifier of the ER stress response and disease, showing its role in reducing cell death and degeneration in a Drosophila model.
