Limiting intestinal iron absorption rescues glial defects and extends lifespan in a Drosophila model of Friedreich ataxia

This study shows that reducing intestinal iron absorption improves glial function and extends lifespan in a Drosophila model of Friedreich ataxia.

Drosophila Sociality Influences Immune Peptide Load and Apoptosis-induced Tumor Suppression independently of the Antitumor Peptide Defensin

The paper shows that Drosophila social context affects immune peptide levels and tumor suppression, independent of Defensin's role.
