Conserved role for the Drosophila Pax6 homolog Eyeless in differentiation and function of insulin-producing neurons.
Insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling constitutes an evolutionarily conserved pathway that controls growth, energy homeostasis, and longevity. In Drosophila melanogaster, key components of this pathway are the insulin-like peptides (Dilps). The major source of Dilps is a cluster of larg...
