Revised refereed preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Revision work lead by @longweibai.bsky.social Our work reveals how the #microbiota helps buffer #malnutrition: L. plantarum sustains intestinal activity of the steroid hormone ecdysone, expanding the midgut and supporting systemic growth.

Excited to share our last paper describing how intestinal stem cell migration promotes gut regeneration! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very happy and proud to share the latest work from our lab. Neuroendocrine control of intestinal regeneration through the vascular niche. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Very happy to share our latest lab publication! The hard work of @bboumard.bsky.social, Gwenn Le Meur and collaborators! Cell-type-specific nucleotide sharing through gap junctions impacts sensitivity to replication stress in Drosophila: Developmental Cell authors.elsevier.com/a/1lDFi_Yv6z...

Lastest work from Zhai's lab. mTORC1-mediated nutrient sensing orchestrates metabolic processes to maintain physiological homeostasis and influences organismal ageing in Drosophila. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Happy to share our new preprint! We explored the mechanisms underlying differences between male and female #Drosophila in susceptibility to intestinal #infection. #symbiosky #immunity #AcademicSky #insect #symbiosis

Discovery of a gut hormone that regulates protein intake, sleep, and influences lifespan www.nature.com/articles/s42... (open-access) @natmetabolism.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s42... in mice and flies

Our latest preprint…Adrien Franchet, Yuhong Jin et al @crick.ac.uk show that circulating glutamine drives brain sparing during nutrient restriction. Great collab with labs of Yaël Grosjean and Ian Gilmore. #metabolism #Drosophila #neuralstemcells www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The lab will be represented at #Dros25. @longweibai.bsky.social presenting in the Physiology session on Friday at 5pm after I give the intro to his talk in a plenary Thursday morning 😉. #Drosophila #microbiome friends, let’s catch up and go see Longwei ´s talk he has a really cool story to share.

And enjoyed it even more when highlighting it in Cell Host Microbe Free access link here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1kbY9_hwRX...

Latest preprint from the Lab, co-led by Cathy Ramos, lecturer in the team and pushed to the final line by Longwei Bai, Ph’d candidate. Deals with microbiome (what else… 😉), guts and steroid hormone in flies. #MicroSky #MicrobiomeSky #SymbioSky #DevBio #Drosofeed www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
