A drosophila genetic model of nephrolithiasis: transcriptional changes in response to diet induced stone formation
Urolithiasis is a significant healthcare issue but the pathophysiology of stone disease remains poorly understood. Drosophila Malpighian tubules were known to share similar physiological function to human renal tubules. We have used Drosophila as a genetic model to study the transcriptional response...
