The paper identifies a male-specific neural circuit in Drosophila that mediates appetitive thirst by integrating neuropeptide signals and regulating motivated behaviors.

The paper identifies a single neuron, L1-l, in Drosophila that is critical for thirsty water seeking and regulated by the NPF neuropeptide.

The paper identifies DN1a circadian neurons in Drosophila as key sites for rapid alcohol tolerance encoding, linking it to sleep regulatory circuits.

The paper identifies a cAMP signaling pathway involving CANs and ACY-2 that promotes larval development in C. elegans by inhibiting KIN-29 through PKA activation.

The paper shows that Hr38, induced by Mef2 and terminated by Sirt1, is critical for ethanol tolerance and preference in Drosophila.

This study identifies two dopaminergic circuits in Drosophila that regulate food-seeking behavior based on satiation state, converging on mushroom body Kenyon cells.
