Nckx30c, a Drosophila K+-dependent Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, regulates temperature-sensitive convulsions and age-related neurodegeneration

Al Nahian Khan Majlish, Sophia Bourgeois, Shu Hui Lye…·Stanislava Chtarbanova

This study identifies Nckx30c as a Drosophila Na+/Ca2+ exchanger that regulates temperature-sensitive convulsions and age-related neurodegeneration through its role in Ca2+ homeostasis.

A Cell-Autonomous Role for the Vitamin B6 Metabolism Gene PNPO in Drosophila GABAergic Neurons

Wenqin Fu, Saul Landaverde, Xiaoxi Zhuang, Atulya Srisudarshan Ram Iyengar

This study shows that PNPO in GABAergic neurons is cell-autonomous for maintaining brain function and suppressing seizures in Drosophila under vitamin B6 restriction.

Glial expression of Drosophila UBE3A causes spontaneous seizures modulated by 5-HT signaling

Megan Sleep, Saul Landaverde, Andrew Lacoste…·Atulya Srisudarshan Ram Iyengar

This study compares glial and neuronal expression of dube3a in Drosophila, finding only glial expression causes spontaneous seizures modulated by 5-HT signaling.
