... h. Changes in protein kinase (PKA, PKG) mRNA abundance were similar to the patterns of biogenic amines and crustacean hyperglycemic hormone, peaking at 6 and 12 h, respectively, whereas PKC mRNA abundance decreased within 24 h. 14-3-3 protein, FXYD2 and cAMP-response element binding protein mRNA...

... challenge) resulted in a change in the foraging preferences of bees. It reduced pollen foraging and increased the duration of trips in pollen foragers. Stress also reduced the amount of octopamine in the brain of pollen foragers (a biogenic amine involved in the regulation of foraging and flight behaviour...

... show differences in amino acids and biogenic amines. We took newly emerged bees and fed them with Nosema ceranae . At approximate nurse and forager ages, we employed an odor-associative conditioning assay using the proboscis extension reflex and two bioanalytical techniques to measure changes in brain...

... and fecundity is an essential part of the emergence of sterile females, which reflects the primitive phase of eusociality. Recent studies suggest that brain biogenic amines are correlated with the ranks in dominance hierarchy. However, the actual causality between aminergic systems and phenotype (i.e. fecundity...

...Edward M. Blumenthal SUMMARY The biogenic amine tyramine (TA) is a potent diuretic factor when applied to the Malpighian tubule (MT) of Drosophila melanogaster , stimulating both urine production and transepithelial chloride conductance. Isolated MTs can respond not only to TA but also to its...
