This study identifies Pvf2 as a key regulator of macrophage self-renewal in Drosophila by showing its transient expression in blood cells and its role in driving population expansion.

This study shows that insulin-like signaling coordinates Drosophila larval hemocyte number with body size, with reduced growth rate and impaired signaling leading to fewer hemocytes.

This study shows that NPFR in Drosophila prothoracic gland regulates development by modulating ecdysone production and insulin signaling, linking feeding behavior to developmental timing.

The paper identifies Torso-like as a secreted protein that regulates insulin signalling in Drosophila by modulating insulin-like peptide activity and developmental timing.
