Recent research using Drosophila melanogaster has seen a resurgence in studies of metabolism and physiology. This review focuses on major methods used to conduct this work. These include protocols for dietary interventions, measurements of triglycerides, cholesterol, glucose, trehalose, and glycogen, stains for lipid detection, and the use of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to detect major polar metabolites. It is our hope that this will provide a useful framework for both new and current researchers in the field.
最近利用黑腹果蝇开展的研究使得对新陈代谢和生理学的研究再度兴起。本综述聚焦于开展这项工作所使用的主要方法。这些方法包括饮食干预方案、甘油三酯、胆固醇、葡萄糖、海藻糖和糖原的测量、脂质检测染色,以及使用气相色谱-质谱联用仪(GC-MS)检测主要极性代谢物。我们希望这将为该领域的新老研究人员提供一个有用的框架。
