Results indicate that the ability of faf, hiw or Rdl to modulate sleep and protect against cognitive impairments during waking is circuit dependent. Decreasing hiw and Rdl within the Mushroom Bodies protects against the negative effects of sleep deprivation as indicated by the absence of a subsequent homeostatic response, or deficits in short-term memory.

overexpression of Rdl GABAARs in the motoneuron caused an increase in dendritic length and branch numbers in the distal GABAergic domain that came at the cost of a reduced arbor in the proximal cholinergic domain.
