In this review, we briefly describe circadian rhythms and circadian clocks in Drosophila melanogaster, mammals and, to a lesser extent, the fungi Neurospora crassa, with an emphasis on the post ...
In the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, these rhythms are primarily regulated by a network of neurons known as circadian clock neurons. Recent research has delved into the intricate roles of ...
That these clocks exist is well established, but discerning how they work is another matter entirely. Clock researchers have found that the most fertile ground in which to study circadian rhythms is ...
This indicates that the machinery as well as the principles of the Drosophila clock is widely conserved in animals. Although transcription factors and transcriptional regulation play key roles in ...
The result: "The circadian clock in the Drosophila brain consists of at least 240 neurons, which is significantly more than the originally estimated 150. "Some of the newly identified clock ...
Researchers and clinicians have found that the timing of medical treatments—including vaccines and chemotherapy for brain cancer—can influence their efficacy, but it is still unclear how the circadian ...
The "Drosophila Activity Monitor" automatically tracks an individual fly's activity over the circadian cycle by recording every time the animal crosses the infrared beam. Disclaimer: AAAS and ...
