    A mutant Drosophila insulin receptor homolog that extends life-span and impairs neuroendocrine function (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-04-09
    Description: The Drosophila melanogaster gene insulin-like receptor (InR) is homologous to mammalian insulin receptors as well as to Caenorhabditis elegans daf-2, a signal transducer regulating worm dauer formation and adult longevity. We describe a heteroallelic, hypomorphic genotype of mutant InR, which yields dwarf females with up to an 85% extension of adult longevity and dwarf males with reduced late age-specific mortality. Treatment of the long-lived InR dwarfs with a juvenile hormone analog restores life expectancy toward that of wild-type controls. We conclude that juvenile hormone deficiency, which results from InR signal pathway mutation, is sufficient to extend life-span, and that in flies, insulin-like ligands nonautonomously mediate aging through retardation of growth or activation of specific endocrine tissue.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Tatar, M -- Kopelman, A -- Epstein, D -- Tu, M P -- Yin, C M -- Garofalo, R S -- R01 AG16632/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Apr 6;292(5514):107-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA., University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA 01003, USA.

    Inwardly rotating spiral waves in a reaction-diffusion system (2001)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2001-10-27
    Description: Almost 30 years have passed since the discovery of concentric (target) and spiral waves in the spatially extended Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction. Since then, rotating spirals and target waves have been observed in a variety of physical, chemical, and biological reaction-diffusion systems. All of these waves propagate out from the spiral center or pacemaker. We report observations of inwardly rotating spirals found in the BZ system dispersed in water droplets of a water-in-oil microemulsion. These "antispirals" were also generated in computer simulations.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Vanag, V K -- Epstein, I R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Oct 26;294(5543):835-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Volen Center for Complex Systems, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA 02454, USA. vanag@brandeis.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11679665" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
