Gene Expression Associated With Behaviour Manipulation in Wood Ants Infected With Larval Lancet Fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Many ant species show dramatic shifts in behaviour when infected with parasites, but the molecular basis of these behavioural changes is not well understood. An example is the wood ant, Formica aserva, which serves as an intermediate host for the lancet liver fluke, Dicrocoelium dendriticum.

Consensus Guideline for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH) Deficiency. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyses the rate‐limiting step in dopamine biosynthesis. Autosomal recessive tyrosine hydroxylase deficiency (THD) leads to clinical phenotypes reflecting the deficiency of dopamine, norepinephrine, or epinephrine in the central nervous system (CNS), presenting along a continuous spectrum from mild to severe forms ...

THE FATE OF BIOGENIC MONOAMINES IN PERFUSED RABBIT LUNG [PDF]
Inactivation of β‐phenylethylamine and several of its derivatives was studied in a preparation of rabbit lung perfused with Krebs physiological medium at 37°C. Inactivation or removal of these compounds was calculated as the difference between the concentration of each amine in the perfusion medium and the effluent, collected separately from each lung.

Altered immunity in crowded Mythimna separata is mediated by octopamine and dopamine
Similar to pathogenic infection, high population density alters insects’ prophylactic immunity. Density-dependent prophylaxis has been reported in many polyphenic insects, but the regulatory mechanism underlying this phenomenon remains unclear.
