Expression of BmcpScer\UAS.cBa rescues glial pathology but failed to alleviate neuronal defects in the Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS model of Huntington’s disease.
No change in lifespan is observed when BmcpScer\UAS.cBa is expressed using Scer\GAL4repo or Scer\GAL4elav-C155.
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4repo is a suppressor | partially of abnormal locomotor behavior phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4repo
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4repo is a suppressor | partially of bang sensitive phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4repo
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4repo is a suppressor of short lived phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4repo
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4Eaat1.PR is a suppressor of short lived phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4Eaat1.PR
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4elav-C155 is a non-suppressor of abnormal locomotor behavior phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4elav-C155
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4elav-C155 is a non-suppressor of short lived phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4elav-C155
BmcpUAS.cBa, Scer\GAL4ey-OK107 is a non-suppressor of adult mushroom body gamma-lobe phenotype of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1.UAS, Scer\GAL4ey-OK107
When BmcpScer\UAS.cBa is co-expressed in the Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS, Scer\GAL4repo background, locomotor defects are suppressed: 52% of flies reach the top of the column after a startle while <22% remain at the bottom.
When BmcpScer\UAS.cBa is co-expressed in the Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS, Scer\GAL4repo background, bang sensitivity is suppressed: only 23% of flies are bang sensitive.
Co-expression of BmcpScer\UAS.cBa improves extends the lifespan of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS, Scer\GAL4repo flies: >78% of these flies are alive at 16 days, and life expectancy is increased by 23-25%.
Co-expression of BmcpScer\UAS.cBa increases the life expectancy of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS, Scer\GAL4Eaat1.PR flies by 20%.
Co-expression of BmcpScer\UAS.cBa does not improve the climbing ability or lifespan phenotypes of Hsap\HTTQ93.ex1p.Scer\UAS, Scer\GAL4elav-C155 flies.
