Nicotine Has a Therapeutic Window of Effectiveness in a Drosophila melanogaster Model of Parkinson’s Disease by Brady T. Mannett, Braden C. Capt, Krista Pearman, Lori M. Buhlman, John M. VandenBrooks, Gerald B. Call

“…We show that continuous early nicotine administration improves both climbing and flight deficiencies present in homozygous park25 mutant PD model Drosophila melanogaster. Using a new climbing assay, we identify several climbing deficiencies in this PD model that are improved or rescued by continuous nicotine treatment. …”

Protocol for multiplexed RNAscope-based imaging of mRNAs in whole-mount adult Drosophila brains by Meilin Wu, Vanessa Lambatan, Peng Guo, William J. Joiner

“…Here, we present a protocol utilizing RNAscope (ACD) to overcome these obstacles and detect multiple types of mRNAs simultaneously in whole-mount adult Drosophila brains. We further describe how mRNAs can be reliably quantified in any cells that can be targeted by common binary expression systems such as Gal4/UAS and labeled by immunohistochemistry.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to De et al.1 : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.…”
