Investigating connections between the circadian system and aging in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Long, Dani M.
Abstract:: Circadian clocks coordinate molecular, cellular, physiological, and behavioral processes with the 24-hour solar day. While clock functions are well understood in young animals, it is not clear how aging or neurodegenerative disease affects the various levels of the circadian system. A common symptom of many neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer’s disease...

Temperature-effective periods during crossvein development in crossveinless-like strains of Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Wong, Patrick Tin-Choi
Abstract:: This investigation is concerned with the determination of the temperature-effective period (T.E.P.) for crossvein development at physiological temperatures using three isogenic crossveinlesslike (cvl) lines of Drosophila melanogaster. The method used to determine T.E.P. relies on temperature differences in phenotypes and on a program of transfers from one temperature to another...

Crossing-over in a reversed acrocentric attached-X chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Gethmann, Richard Charles
Abstract:: The frequency of exchanges was measured in a reversed acrocentric compound X chromosome that is deficient for interstitial heterochromatin. Previous studies on similar chromosomes containing interstitial heterochromatin have demonstrated a very low frequency of single exchanges, and high frequencies of the double and no exchange classes. It has been postulated...

The effect of temperature on crossvein formation in crossveinless-like strains of Drosophila melanogaster (Meigen)

Creator:: Thompson, Steven Risley
Abstract:: Development of the posterior crossvein in crossveinless-like strains of Drosophila melanogaster can be influenced by high temperature shocks at specific times in pupal development. Three sensitive periods were detected in age response studies on Ona X, Ona II, 5-hi III; crossvein restoration at 14 hours in pupal development, a crossvein...

Exploring functional links between circadian clocks, neurodegeneration, and aging in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Rakshit, Kuntol
Abstract:: Circadian clocks are endogenous molecular mechanisms that coordinate daily rhythms in gene expression, cellular activities, and physiological functions with external day/night cycles. Breakdown of circadian rhythms such as sleep/wake cycles is associated with the onset of several neurological diseases; however, it is not clear whether disruption of rhythms is a...

The genetic dissection of the fruitless gene's functions during embryogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Song, Ho-Juhn
Abstract:: The fruitless (fru) gene in Drosophila melanogaster is a multifunctional gene having sex-specific functions in the regulation of male sexual behavior and sex-nonspecific functions affecting adult viability and external morphology. While much attention has focused on fru's sex-specific roles, little is known about its sex-nonspecific functions. The embryonic central nervous...

Regulation by male-specific fruitless of neural circuitry used during courtship and copulation behavior in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Latham, Kristin Lynn
Abstract:: Courtship and copulation behaviors in Drosophila melanogaster males are regulated by sex-specific products from the gene fruitless (fru). Male-specific FRU proteins (FRU[superscript M]) are putative transcription factors of the BTB-ZnF family that likely act by controlling development and maintenance of the neural circuitry used during male sexual behavior. However, which...
