Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol
. 2024 Sep;
298:111741.
PMID: 39276851
Regulation of salt and water balance occupies a dominant role in the physiology of many animals and often relies on the function of the renal system. In the mammalian kidney,...

. 2023 Jan;
495:21-34.
PMID: 36587799
Septate junctions (SJs) evolved as cell-cell junctions that regulate the paracellular barrier and integrity of epithelia in invertebrates. Multiple morphological variants of SJs exist specific to different epithelia and/or phyla...

Curr Opin Insect Sci
. 2021 Feb;
47:7-11.
PMID: 33581351
During development, the insect Malpighian tubule undergoes several programmed morphogenetic events that give rise to the tubule's ability to transport ions and water at unparalleled speed. Studies in Diptera, in...

PMID: 32267718
Tetraspanin-2A (Tsp2A) is an integral membrane protein of smooth septate junctions in . To elucidate its structural and functional roles in Malpighian tubules, we used the -GAL4/UAS system to selectively...
