lipid droplet & larval oenocyte, with Scer\GAL4Lsp2.PH

lipid droplet & larval oenocyte, with Scer\GAL4ppl.PP

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa using Scer\GAL4ppl.PP increases neutral lipids in oenocytes.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat decreases the fat content of flies compared to controls.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4Lsp2.PH rescues the increase in triglyceride levels and the heart defects normally caused by a high-fat diet.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the simultaneous control of both Scer\GAL4Scer\UAS.cHa and Scer\GAL4tin.cBa does not rescue the increase in triglyceride levels caused by a high-fat diet. However, the heart defects normally caused by a high-fat diet are rescued in these animals.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4ppl.PP results in an accumulation of lipid droplets in the oenocytes of 92% of fed larvae (this contrasts with wild-type larvae, where oenocytes accumulate lipid droplets specifically under starvation conditions).

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4Lsp2.PH results in an accumulation of lipid droplets in the oenocytes of 100% of fed larvae.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat in fed flies depletes the storage fat (measured as triacylglycerol content) of immature (less than 1 day old) and mature (6 days old) adults by 96% and 46%, respectively, compared to controls.

Fat body cells of immature adults expressing bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat have storage droplets that are reduced in number and size.

Mature adults expressing bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat show no difference in carbohydrate storage (measured as glycogen content) compared to controls.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4ninaE.PT fails to rescue the neurodegeneration and electrophysiology defect seen in fh1 mutant photoreceptor clones.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa in sicilyE mutant clones partially restores the shape, density and number of identifiable rhabdomeres, indicating that reducing lipid droplet accumulation partially alleviates neurodegeneration.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa in Aats-metFB mutant clones partially restores the shape, density and number of identifiable rhabdomeres, indicating that reducing lipid droplet accumulation partially alleviates neurodegeneration.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa in MarfB mutant clones partially restores the shape, density and number of identifiable rhabdomeres, indicating that reducing lipid droplet accumulation partially alleviates neurodegeneration.

Neuronal expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU) suppresses lipid droplet accumulation in MarfGD11094-knockdown glia.

Neuronal expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU) suppresses lipid droplet accumulation in MarfGD11094-knockdown glia.

Neuronal expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU) suppresses lipid droplet accumulation in Aats-metKK108492-knockdown glia.

Neuronal expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU) suppresses lipid droplet accumulation in ND-42GD6220-knockdown glia.

Knockdown of Marf in neurons (MarfninaE.GD11094) and overexpression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa in glia (under the control of Scer\GAL454C) lowers lipid droplet accumulation and delays neurodegeneration.

Knockdown of ND-42 in neurons (ND-42ninaE.GD6220) and overexpression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa in glia (under the control of Scer\GAL454C) lowers lipid droplet accumulation and delays neurodegeneration.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat suppresses the increase in fat content which is seen in Lsd-11 flies and the double mutant flies are leaner than flies expressing bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat in a Lsd-1[+] background.

Immature adult flies co-expressing Lsd-2Scer\UAS.cGa and bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4fat have storage fat levels (measured as triacylglycerol content) intermediate between control flies and flies expressing bmmScer\UAS.cGa alone.

Comments

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI almost completely rescues the lethality of embryos maternally and zygotically mutant for bmm1.

Expression of bmmScer\UAS.cGa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI reverts the obese phenotype of bmm1 mutant flies.
