Project description:This experiment was intended to determine if topical exposure to ethanol led to significant changes in gene expression in adult Drosophila melanogaster. It was determined that topical exposure to ethanol did not lead to a strong differential expression of genes in Drosophila after 4 hours. Keywords: Ethanol response, stress response
Project description:In this study we use a combination of proteomics Label-Free quantification methods to monitor protein expression changes over a time course of more than 20 hours of embryo development in Drosophila melanogaster.
Project description:Time course analysis series in Development of the transcriptome from Drosophila melanogaster using the Heidelberg FlyArray. All stages were hybridized against embryonic stage 0-4 h as reference control. Keywords: time-course
Project description:Increased ethanol intake, a major predictor for the development of alcohol use disorders, is facilitated by the development of tolerance to both the aversive and pleasurable effects of the drug. The molecular mechanisms underlying ethanol tolerance development are complex and are not yet well understood. To identify genetic mechanisms that contribute to ethanol tolerance, we examined the time course of gene expression changes elicited by a single sedating dose of ethanol in Drosophila.

Project description:This experiment was intended to determine if topical exposure to ethanol led to significant changes in gene expression in adult Drosophila melanogaster. It was determined that topical exposure to ethanol did not lead to a strong differential expression of genes in Drosophila after 4 hours. The effect of topical treatment with 99% ethanol was compared to the effect of a water treatment which was used as a control and the differential expression between these two treatments was assessed four hours after treatment. Two biological replicates of each treatment were compared for a total of two microarray hybridizations
