This study identifies glia as key coordinators of sickness-induced sleep behavior through an adrenergic-glutamatergic axis in Drosophila.

The paper identifies sex-specific lipid differences in Drosophila neurons and glia and links glial diacylglycerol catabolism to sleep promotion.

This study shows that tanycyte Bmal1 deletion in female mice reduces weight gain on high-fat diet by altering hypothalamic neurogenesis, specifically affecting feeding-suppressing POMC neurons.

This study shows that metabolic activity in cancer cells affects circadian rhythms, with hypermetabolic states linked to weaker circadian oscillations in both mouse and human tumor cells.

This study identifies polyamine elevation and nitrogen stress as toxic consequences of chronic sleep loss in Drosophila, linking them to metabolic dysfunction and reduced survival.
