Oxidative inhibition of PTEN links ROS signaling to regeneration and homeostasis

The paper shows ROS inhibits PTEN to activate Akt signaling, linking oxidative stress to regeneration in Drosophila.

Expression dynamics of long non-coding RNAs during imaginal disc development and regeneration in Drosophila

The paper identifies lncRNAs involved in Drosophila imaginal disc development and regeneration, showing that CR40469 is essential for wing regeneration and can be partially compensated by CR34335.

ROS-mediated TNFR Wengen activation in response to apoptosis

This study shows that Wengen (Wgn) promotes cell survival by activating the p38 MAP kinase pathway through dTRAF1 in response to ROS generated during apoptosis, distinct from Grindelwald (Grnd).

Ask1 and Akt act synergistically to promote ROS-dependent regeneration in Drosophila

The paper identifies Ask1 and Akt as synergistic regulators of ROS-dependent regeneration in Drosophila by sensing oxidative stress and modulating signaling pathways.

Evolution of selenophosphate synthetases: emergence and relocation of function through independent duplications and recurrent subfunctionalization

The paper traces the evolutionary history of selenophosphate synthetase (SPS) genes, showing how they duplicated and subfunctionalized to acquire distinct roles in metazoans.
