Time-restricted eating promotes sustained fat loss in Drosophila

Jared A. Gatto, Timothy Y. Chang, Wendy C Kanmogne, Serena Pen, Letitia Bortey, Jessica N Kwon, Lia Mahal, Holden S Kim, Leah Berhanu, Fatma Oduk, Megan r. Rabon, Scarlet Jinhong Park, Erin L. Barnhart, William W. Ja, Nicholas Stavropoulos, , Mimi Shirasu‐Hiza

This study shows that time-restricted eating in Drosophila leads to sustained fat loss and improved muscle function without calorie restriction.

Energy Deficit is a Key Driver of Sleep Homeostasis

Scarlet Jinhong Park, Keith R. Murphy, William W. Ja

The paper shows that energy deficit drives sleep homeostasis in Drosophila by linking sleep loss to increased metabolic expenditure and food intake, followed by rebound sleep.

Investigating the consequences of chronic short sleep for metabolism and survival of oxidative stress

Samantha J. Tener, C. Kim, Jung‐Won Lee, Kairaluchi Oraedu, Jared A. Gatto, Timothy Y. Chang, Carly Lam, Ryan Schanta, Meaghan S. Jankowski, Scarlet Jinhong Park, Jennifer Hurley, Matthew Ulgherait, Julie C. Canman, William W. Ja, Douglas B. Collins, Mimi Shirasu‐Hiza

This study investigates how chronic short sleep affects metabolism and survival under oxidative stress in mutants, finding common metabolic defects and suggesting lipid metabolism issues may underlie oxidative stress sensitivity.

Neurofibromin regulates metabolic rate via neuronal mechanisms in Drosophila

Valentina Botero, Bethany A. Stanhope, Elizabeth Brown, Eliza C. Grenci, Tamara Boto, Scarlet Jinhong Park, Lanikea B. King, Keith R. Murphy, Kenneth J. Colodner, James A. Walker, Alex C. Keene, William W. Ja, Seth M. Tomchik

This study shows that dNf1 in Drosophila regulates metabolic rate through neuronal mechanisms, with effects on feeding, lipid stores, and energy expenditure.
