Steel Magnolias is my movie! I cry/laugh every time I watch the funeral scene…and Daryl Hannah before Kill Bill is a complete 180.

Collectively, our results highlight a role for amino acid storage proteins in regulating stem cell lineages in Drosophila.

Lastly, we found that adipocyte-derived storage proteins regulate TOR signaling directly in GSCs.

We also found that the predicted storage protein receptors (Fbp1 and Fbp2) are present in ovarian follicle cells and Lsp2 is present in the oocyte.

We found that larval serum proteins (LSPs) are expressed in adult female adipocytes (at significantly lower levels compared to larvae) and are required for maintaining GSC number.

In this study we investigated the role of adipocyte-derived amino acid storage proteins in regulating germline stem cell (GSC) maintenance in the adult ovary.

Congrats!

Congrats Beronda! Is there a way to pre-order?
