Octopamine drives honeybee thermogenesis
eLife, 2022 In times of environmental change species have two options to survive: they either relocate to a new habitat or they adapt to the altered environment. Adaptation requires physiological plasticity and provides a selection benefit.

Octopamine in Male Aggression of Drosophila [PDF]
Current Biology, 2008 In mammals and humans, noradrenaline is a key modulator of aggression. Octopamine, a closely related biogenic amine, has been proposed to have a similar function in arthropods. However, the effect of octopamine on aggressive behavior is little understood.An automated video analysis of aggression in male Drosophila has been developed, rendering ...

Regulation of Drosophila oviduct muscle contractility by octopamine [PDF]
iScience, 2022 Summary: Octopamine is essential for egg-laying in Drosophila melanogaster, but the neuronal pathways and receptors by which it regulates visceral muscles in the reproductive tract are not known.

Opposing Actions of Octopamine and Tyramine on Honeybee Vision
Biomolecules, 2021 The biogenic amines octopamine and tyramine are important neurotransmitters in insects and other protostomes. They play a pivotal role in the sensory responses, learning and memory and social organisation of honeybees.

Octopamine receptors in Drosophila larvae: expression, development, and behavior [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular NeuroscienceOctopamine is involved in a variety of physiological and behavioral mechanisms throughout the Drosophila melanogaster life cycle. Octopaminergic neurons in both the central and the peripheral nervous system target a multitude of neurons and even non ...

Coumarin‐Based Octopamine Phototriggers and their Effects on an Insect Octopamine Receptor
ChemBioChem, 2012 AbstractWe have developed and characterized efficient caged compounds of the neurotransmitter octopamine. For derivatization, we introduced [6‐bromo‐8‐(diethylaminomethyl)‐7‐hydroxycoumarin‐4‐yl]methoxycarbonyl (DBHCMOC) and {6‐bromo‐7‐hydroxy‐8‐[(piperazin‐1‐yl)methyl]coumarin‐4‐yl}methoxycarbonyl (PBHCMOC) moieties as novel photo‐removable protecting

Phytochemical Profiling and Evaluation of Antibacterial, Anticancer, Anti-inflammatory, and Wound-Healing Activities of Endophytic Fungi Isolated From Atalantia racemosa. [PDF]
Chem BiodiversABSTRACT Endophytic fungi are recognized as prolific sources of structurally diverse secondary metabolites with significant pharmaceutical potential. In the present study, endophytic fungi were isolated from healthy tissues of Atalantia racemosa (Rutaceae), an ethnomedicinal plant traditionally used for respiratory disorders and blood purification.

Design and evaluation of an amphiphilic biaryl ether library using a novel cell-based β-arrestin recruitment assay for the octopamine receptors of Balanus improvisus [PDF]
RSC AdvancesA 22-compound amphiphilic biaryl ether library inspired by the antifouling compound medetomidine has been designed and synthesized. The compound library was evaluated in a primary screening using a novel β-arrestin assay in CHO cells expressing the ...
