The Drosophila septate junctions beyond barrier function: Review of the literature, prediction of human orthologs of the SJ-related proteins and identification of protein domain families

Rouka E., Gourgoulianni N., Lüpold S., Hatzoglou C., Gourgoulianis K., Blanckenhorn W.U., Zarogiannis S.G. (2021)

The involvement of Septate Junctions (SJs) in critical cellular functions that extend beyond their role as diffusion barriers in the epithelia and the nervous system has made the fruit fly an ideal model for the study of ...
Prediction and enrichment analyses of the Homo sapiens-Drosophila melanogaster COPD-related orthologs: potential for modeling of human COPD genomic responses with the fruit fly

Rouka E., Gourgoulianni N., Lupold S., Hatzoglou C., Gourgoulianis K.I., Zarogiannis S.G. (2022)

The significant similarities in airway epithelial cells between mammals and the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster have rendered the latter an important model organism for studies of chronic inflammatory lung diseases. ...
