    Insulin production and fat sensing in fruit flies

    6982

    Fourteen neurons (magenta) in the adult Drosophila brain produce insulin, and fat tissue sends packets of lipids to the brain via the lipoprotein carriers (green). This image was captured using a confocal microscope and shows a maximum intensity projection of many slices.

    Internal NoteGrant R35GM124593 Hi Rachel, Thanks for your patience. Since the images are too large to attach I have uploaded them at this google drive link and you should be able to download it the link. You would also have received an email from my google drive with this link. Please let me know if you have any difficulties. Here are snapshots of the 4 images and attached word doc has the caption, and necessary credit. Again, thanks for reaching out to feature some of our work in the NIGMS image gallery as a resource. Best wishes, Akhila
