Insulin resistance is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes resulting from the confluence of several
factors, including genetic susceptibility, inflammation, and diet. Under this …

The precise regulation of metabolism and feeding behavior is important for preventing the
development of metabolic diseases. Here we examine the effects on Drosophila metabolism …

Dietary restriction (DR) is a well-established strategy to increase lifespan and stress
resistance in many eukaryotic species. In addition, individuals fed a restricted diet typically …

The maternal nutritional environment can impact progeny development, stress tolerance,
and longevity. Such phenotypic variation of offspring resulting from the maternal …

Temperature and food quality are the most important environmental factors determining the
performance of herbivorous insects. The objective of our study was to evaluate the …

Context-dependent allocation of resources drives trade-offs among fitness-related traits and
other phenotypes to which those traits are linked. In addition, the amount and type of …

Black soybean seed coat extract (BSSCE) is a rich source of anthocyanins. This study was
aimed at investigating the effects of BSSCE on Lead (Pb) toxicity. Here using Drosophila …

The influence of parental nutrition as a key environmental factor that can influence offspring
performance has become a hot topic for modern investigations. In the current study using …

Diet restriction (DR) studies undergo the implementation of reduced single or multiple
component/s of the fly food without causing malnutrition. The question of how and why DR …

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a cluster of metabolic disturbances increasing a risk of
cardiovascular diseases and diabetes 2 types. The main features of MetS include …
