Pushing the limit: Examining factors that affect anoxia tolerance in a single genotype of adult D. melanogaster
Type: Text

Member of: FAU College Collections
Contributors: Benasayag Meszaros, Raquel, Dawson-Scully, Ken, Fendrich, Margo, Hernandez, Priscilla, Risley, Monica G.
Description: Drosophila melanogaster is a promiscuous species that inhabits a large range of harsh environments
including flooded habitats and varying temperature changes. To survive these environments, fruit flies have
adapted mechanisms of tolerance that allow them to thrive. During exposure to anoxic stress, fruit flies and
other poikilotherms enter into a reversible, protective coma. This coma can be… more

RanBP9 Plays a Critical Role in Neonatal Brain Development in Mice
Type: Text
Year: 2013, 2013
Member of: FAU College Collections
Contributors: Bianchi, Elisabetta, Dawson-Scully, Ken, Hayes, Crystal D., Kang, David E., Lakshmana, Madepalli K., Lloyd, Brandon N., Okazawa, Hitoshi, Palavicini, Juan Pablo
Description: RanBP9 is known to act as a scaffolding protein bringing together a variety of cell surface receptors and intracellular targets
thereby regulating functions as diverse as neurite and axonal outgrowth, cell morphology, cell proliferation, myelination,
gonad development, myofibrillogenesis and migration of neuronal precursors. Though RanBP9 is ubiquitously expressed in
all tissues, brain is one… more

Glial Hsp70 Protects K+ Homeostasis in the Drosophila Brain during Repetitive Anoxic Depolarization

Member of: FAU College Collections
Contributors: Armstrong, Gary A. B., Dawson-Scully, Ken, Krill, Jennifer L., Robertson, R. Meldrum, Roman, Gregg, Seroude, Laurent, Xiao, Chengfeng
Description: Neural tissue is particularly vulnerable to metabolic stress and loss of ion homeostasis. Repetitive stress generally leads to
more permanent dysfunction but the mechanisms underlying this progression are poorly understood. We investigated the
effects of energetic compromise in Drosophila by targeting the Na+/K+-ATPase. Acute ouabain treatment of intact flies
resulted in subsequent repetitive… more

cGMP-Dependent Protein Kinase Inhibition Extends the Upper Temperature Limit of Stimulus-Evoked Calcium Responses in Motoneuronal Boutons of Drosophila melanogaster Larvae
Type: Text
Year: 2016, 2016
Member of: FAU College Collections
Contributors: Dawson-Scully, Ken, Krill, Jennifer L., McCabe, Brian D.
Description: While the mammalian brain functions within a very narrow range of oxygen concentrations
and temperatures, the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, has employed strategies to deal
with a much wider range of acute environmental stressors. The foraging (for) gene encodes
the cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG), has been shown to regulate thermotolerance
in many stress-adapted species, including… more
