The Innexin 7 gap junction protein contributes to synchronized activity in the Drosophila antennal lobe and regulates olfactory function

Nicolás Fuenzalida‐Uribe, Sergio Hidalgo, Bryon Silva, Saurin M. Gandhi, David Vo, Parham Zamani, Todd C. Holmes, Sercan Sayın, Ilona C Grunwald Kadow, Dafni Hadjieconomou, Diane K. O’Dowd, Jorge M. Campusano

This study shows that Inx7 gap junctions synchronize antennal lobe projection neurons and are essential for olfactory function in Drosophila.

Alcohol-induced sleep dysregulation in Drosophila is dependent on the neuropeptide PDF

Maria E. Ramirez-Roman, Nicolás Fuenzalida‐Uribe, Genesis Ayala-Santiago, José L. Agosto, Alfredo Ghezzi

This study investigates how alcohol affects sleep in Drosophila by showing that manipulating specific neurons and the neuropeptide PDF alters sleep patterns and tolerance.

pumilio regulates sleep homeostasis in response to chronic sleep deprivation in Drosophila melanogaster

Luis A. De Jesús-Olmo, Norma Rodríguez, Marcelo Francia, Jonathan Alemán-Rios, Carlos J. Pacheco-Agosto, Joselyn Ortega-Torres, Richard Nieves, Nicolás Fuenzalida‐Uribe, Alfredo Ghezzi, José L. Agosto

This study shows that Pumilio is essential for sleep rebound, particularly after chronic sleep deprivation in Drosophila, by modulating neuronal excitability.
