Delivery of circulating lipoproteins to specific neurons in the Drosophila brain regulates systemic insulin signaling
The Insulin signaling pathway couples growth, development and lifespan to nutritional conditions. Here, we demonstrate a function for the Drosophila lipoprotein LTP in conveying information about dietary lipid composition to the brain to regulate Insulin signaling. When yeast lipids are present in t...
