“…The fly has been used as a model to study neurodegenerative disease and its drug discovery (Bilen and Bonini, 2005;Lu, 2009;Nichols, 2006). Testing adult or developmental neurotoxicity also seems particularly promising (Peterson et al, 2008;Rand, 2010). A number of endpoints can be measured in the fruit fly that provide information on toxicity, such as lethality, adult morphology, behavior, and reporter gene or protein expression.…”
