Impact of<i> </i>Probiotic Combination in <i>InR</i><sup>[E19]</sup>/TM2 <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i> on Longevity, Related Gene Expression, and Intestinal Microbiota: A Preliminary Study
The insulin receptor (InR) pertains to the insulin receptor family, which plays a key role in the insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-like signaling (IIS) pathway. Insulin signaling defects may result in the development of metabolic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, and the InR mutant has been...
