This study shows that aging leads to persistent stress granules with altered RNA/RBP ratios, reduced RNA levels, and protective effects in senescent cells, which can be reversed by restoring RNA metabolism.

This study examines the spatial expression and cellular organisation of innexin gap junction proteins in Drosophila wing imaginal discs, revealing their sub-apical localization and functional roles.

The paper develops an enzyme-based rRNA-depletion method for Drosophila total RNA, showing improved efficiency and non-coding RNA enrichment compared to commercial kits.

This study shows that novel stimuli can override gustatory habituation in Drosophila by activating TH-positive neurons that inhibit GABAergic cells involved in habituation.
