The paper shows lipid droplets delay regulated cell death by sequestering mitochondrial effectors like Bax, thereby reducing apoptosis execution in cancer and germ cells.

The paper shows embryonic dopamine neurons in Drosophila are essential for lifelong locomotion, maintaining function through structural remodeling and transcription factor expression.

This study generates a dWDR45 knock-out Drosophila model to investigate autophagy's role in BPAN, finding that autophagy defects contribute to some but not all phenotypes.

This study shows MYC regulates ITPR1 to control ER-mitochondria calcium transfer, inducing cell death in normal cells but exploited by cancer cells for survival.

The paper investigates the role of Spen in glial lipid metabolism and its protective effect against paraquat toxicity in Drosophila.

This study investigates the role of Numb in regulating Notch signaling during R3/R4 photoreceptor specification and planar cell polarity establishment in the Drosophila eye.

This study shows that fatty acid transport protein in retinal pigment cells promotes lipid droplet expansion, which supports photoreceptor homeostasis under normal conditions but can be toxic under pathological stress.
