Metformin modulates survival, oxidative stress, and gene expression in a high-sucrose Drosophila diabetes model
Background Excess dietary sugar is a major contributor to metabolic disorders, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study investigates the physiological, biochemical, behavioral, and molecular effects of high-sucrose diets in Drosophila melanogaster and evaluates the modulatory effects of metformin under the...
