FOXO in Lymnaea: Its Probable Involvement in Memory Consolidation
Biology, 2023 Food deprivation activates forkhead box O (FOXO), a transcription factor downstream of insulin receptors. In the pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis, insulin signaling and food deprivation improve memory consolidation following conditioned taste aversion (CTA ...

Metabolic responses to long-term food deprivation in subterranean and surface amphipods [PDF]
Subterranean Biology, 2020 A long-standing hypothesis in subterranean biology posits that organisms living in poor resource subsurface habitats can withstand long periods of bioenergetic shortages due to an innate reduced metabolic rate when compared to their epigean counterparts.

The relationship between metabolic rate and sociability is altered by food-deprivation [PDF]
, 2016 Individuals vary in the extent to which they associate with conspecifics, but little is known about the energetic underpinnings of this variation in sociability. Group-living allows individuals to find food more consistently, but within groups, there can
