The paper shows that restricting individual amino acids, particularly isoleucine, in Drosophila melanogaster increases resistance to multiple stressors, including nicotine, oxidative stress, and cold shock.

This paper introduces an adjusted diet formula for Drosophila melanogaster larvae to improve growth, development, and survival, with applications in studying metabolic disorders.

Short-term isoleucine deprivation in Drosophila extends lifespan and improves toxin resistance, with benefits dependent on timing and duration of deprivation.

The paper shows that restricting a single amino acid in Drosophila increases survival during nicotine exposure through mTORC1 and GCN2 signaling pathways.
