    Abstract Although levodopa is the most effective medication for Parkinson's disease, long-term levodopa treatment is largely compromised due to late motor complications, including levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID). However, the genetic basis of LID pathogenesis has not been fully understood. Here, we discover genes pathogenic for LID using Drosophila genetics and behavioral analyses combined with genome-wide association studies on 578 patients clinically diagnosed with LID. Similar to the therapeutic effect of levodopa in patients, acute levodopa treatments restore the motor defect of Parkinson's disease model flies, while prolonged treatments cause LID-related symptoms, such as increased yawing, freezing and abrupt acceleration of locomotion. These symptoms require dopamine 1-like receptor 1 and are induced by neuronal overexpression of the receptor. Among genes selected from our analyses in the patient genome, neuronal knockdown of adenylyl cyclase 2 suppresses the levodopa-induced phenotypes and the receptor overexpression-induced symptoms in Drosophila. Together, our study provides genetic insights for LID pathogenesis through the D1-like receptor-adenylyl cyclase 2 signaling axis.

    Abstract Recent advances in nanomaterials technology create the new possibility to fabricate high performance sensors. However, there has been limitations in terms of multivariate measurable and interoperable sensors. In this study, we fabricated an interoperable silver nanoparticle sensor fabricated by an aerodynamically focused nanomaterial (AFN) printing system which is a direct printing technique for inorganic nanomaterials onto a flexible substrate. The printed sensor exhibited the maximum measurable frequency of 850 Hz, and a gauge factor of 290.62. Using a fabricated sensor, we evaluated the sensing performance and demonstrated the measurement independency of strain and vibration sensing. Furthermore, using the proposed signal separation algorithm based on the Kalman filter, strain and vibration were each measured in real time. Finally, we applied the printed sensor to quadrotor condition monitoring to predict the motion of a quadrotor.

    Abstract Satiety cues a feeding animal to cease further ingestion of food, thus protecting it from excessive energy gain. Impaired control of satiety is often associated with feeding-related disorders such as obesity. In our recent study, we reported the identification of a neural pathway that expresses the myoinhibitory peptide (MIP), critical for satiety responses in Drosophila. Targeted silencing of MIP neuron activity strikingly increased the body weight (BW) through elevated food intake. Similarly, genetic disruption of the gene encoding MIP also elevated feeding and BW. Suppressing the MIP pathway behaviorally transformed the satiated flies to feed similar to the starved ones, with augmented sensitivity to food. Conversely, temporal activation of MIP neuron markedly reduced the food intake and BW, and blunted the sensitivity of the starved flies to food as if they have been satiated. Shortly after termination of MIP neuron activation, the reduced BW reverted to the normal level along with a strong feeding rebound. Together our results reveal the switch-like role of the MIP pathway in feeding regulation by controlling satiety. [BMB Reports 2016; 49(3): 137-138].

    Abstract Structural colors that can be changed dynamically, using either plasmonic nanostructures or photonic crystals, are rapidly emerging research areas for stretchable sensors. Despite the wide applications of various techniques to achieve strain-responsive structural colors, important factors in the feasibility of strain sensors-such as their sensing mechanism, stability, and reproducibility-have not yet been explored. Here, we introduce a stretchable, diffractive, color-based wireless strain sensor that can measure strain using the entire visible spectrum, based on an array of cone-shaped nanostructures on the surface of an elastomeric substrate. By stretching or compressing the substrate, the diffractive color can be tuned according to the changing grating pitch. Using the proposed method, we designed three types of strain-sensing modes: large-deformation (maximum 100%) tensile strain, biaxial 2D strain, and shear strain (maximum 78%). The strain sensors were fabricated, and applicability to strain-sensing was evaluated.

    Abstract A real-time, accurate, and reliable process monitoring is a basic and crucial enabler of intelligent manufacturing operation and digital twin applications. In this study, we represent a novel vibration measurement method for workpiece during the milling process using a low-cost nanoparticle vibration sensor. We directly printed the vibration sensor based on silver nanoparticles positioned onto a polyimide substrate using an aerodynamically-focused nanomaterials printing system, which is a direct printing technique for inorganic nanomaterials positioned onto a flexible substrate. Since it does not require any post-process such as chemical etching and heat treatment, a highly sensitive vibration sensor composed of a microscale porous structure was fabricated at a cost of several cents each. Furthermore, accurate and reliable vibration data was obtained by simple and direct attachment to a workpiece. In this study, we discussed the performance of vibration measurement of a fabricated sensor in comparison to a commercial vibration sensor. Using frequency and power spectrum analysis of obtained data, we directly measured the vibration of workpiece during the milling process, according to a process parameter. Lastly, we applied a fabricated sensor for the digital twins of turbine blade manufacturing in which vibration greatly affects the quality of the product to predict the process defects in real-time.

    Abstract Genetic mechanisms for the pathogenesis of visceral myopathy (VM) have been rarely demonstrated. Here we report the visceral role of misato (mst) in Drosophila and its implications for the pathogenesis of VM. Depletion of mst using three independent RNAi lines expressed by a pan-muscular driver elicited characteristic symptoms of VM, such as abnormal dilation of intestinal tracts, reduced gut motility, feeding defects, and decreased life span. By contrast, exaggerated expression of mst reduced intestine diameters, but increased intestinal motilities along with thickened muscle fibers, demonstrating a critical role of mst in the visceral muscle. Mst expression was detected in the adult intestine with its prominent localization to actin filaments and was required for maintenance of intestinal tubulin and actomyosin structures. Consistent with the subcellular localization of Mst, the intestinal defects induced by mst depletion were dramatically rescued by exogenous expression of an actin member. Upon ageing the intestinal defects were deteriorative with marked increase of apoptotic responses in the visceral muscle. Taken together, we propose the impairment of actomyosin structures induced by mst depletion in the visceral muscle as a pathogenic mechanism for VM.
