Genetic and optogenetic analyses in Drosophila neurons reveal calcium as one of the key regulators of nucleocytoplasmic localization of TDP-43 via Calpain-A and Importin α3.
The interplay between the Flower Ca2+ channel and PI(4,5)P2 spatiotemporally couples synaptic vesicle exocytosis to activity-dependent bulk endocytosis and synaptic vesicle reformation from bulk endosomes.

Experiments using zebrafish identify a novel sleep-promoting neuronal circuit in which hypothalamic NPVF neurons promote sleep via the hindbrain serotonergic raphe nuclei, which promote sleep in both zebrafish and mice.

Casein kinase I, a pivotal kinase in the circadian clock encoded by ck-1a, is positively regulated by a novel RNA-binding protein that protects ck-1a transcripts from nonsense-mediated decay.
