This study shows that the SLC36 transporter Pathetic in Drosophila blood-brain barrier glia regulates tumour growth under nutrient restriction by modulating mTor-S6K pathway activity.

This study shows that dedifferentiated tumour neural stem cells in Drosophila generate a glial niche that supports tumour growth through dysregulated ecdysone signalling.

This study shows that dedifferentiation-derived neural stem cells (NSCs) fail to express late temporal transcription factors, leading to impaired neuronal diversity and cell cycle progression.
