Reduction of DILP2 in Drosophila Triages a Metabolic Phenotype from Lifespan Revealing Redundancy and Compensation among DILPs

The insulin/IGF-like signalling (IIS) pathway has diverse functions in all multicellular organisms, including determination of lifespan. The seven insulin-like peptides (DILPs) in Drosophila are expressed in a stage- and tissue-specific manner. Partial ablation of the median neurosecretory cells (mN...
