Octopaminergic agonists for the cockroach neuronal octopamine receptor
Journal of Insect Science, 2003 The compounds 1-(2,6-diethylphenyl)imidazolidine-2-thione and 2-(2,6-diethylphenyl)imidazolidine showed the almost same activity as octopamine in stimulating adenylate cyclase of cockroach thoracic nervous system among 70 octopamine agonists, suggesting ...

Octopamine Drives Endurance Exercise Adaptations in Drosophila
Cell Reports, 2017 Summary: Endurance exercise is an effective therapeutic intervention with substantial pro-healthspan effects. Male Drosophila respond to a ramped daily program of exercise by inducing conserved physiological responses similar to those seen in mice and ...

In Situ Hybridization Chain Reaction and Immunohistochemical Labeling of the Octopamine Production Pathway in the Central Nervous System of Lymnaea stagnalis. [PDF]
J Comp NeurolOctopaminergic neurons in the central nervous system of Lymnaea stagnalis were mapped using three complementary markers: mRNA, enzyme, and neurotransmitter. While substantial overlap was observed, discrepancies revealed neuroanatomical complexities, reinforcing the value of combining HCR and IHC for a more robust interpretation of neurotransmitter ...

Ancient coexistence of norepinephrine, tyramine, and octopamine signaling in bilaterians [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: Norepinephrine/noradrenaline is a neurotransmitter implicated in arousal and other aspects of vertebrate behavior and physiology. In invertebrates, adrenergic signaling is considered absent and analogous functions are performed by the ...

The Simultaneous Effect of Endurance Training and Octopamine Supplementation on Octopamine and its Receptors in the Visceral Fat Tissue of Rats Treated with Deep Fried Oil (DFO) [PDF]
Journal of Fasting and Health, 2022 Introduction: The role of exercise and some supplements in lipolysis has been reported, but given limited information on the simultaneous effect of endurance training (ET) and octopamine (Oct), the present study aimed to investigate the interactive ...

Neuromodulation of olfactory sensitivity in the peripheral olfactory organs of the American cockroach, Periplaneta americana. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Olfactory sensitivity exhibits daily fluctuations. Several studies have suggested that the olfactory system in insects is modulated by both biogenic amines and neuropeptides. However, molecular and neural mechanisms underlying olfactory modulation in the

Age-Dependent Honey Bee Appetite Regulation Is Mediated by Trehalose and Octopamine Baseline Levels
Insects, 2021 There are multiple feedback mechanisms involved in appetite regulation, which is an integral part of maintaining energetic homeostasis. Older forager honey bees, in comparison to newly emerged bees and nurse bees, are known to have highly fluctuating ...

Octopamine in Sexual Behavior [PDF]
, 2017 Octopamine is a biogenic amine neuromodulator present in neuronal and non-neuronal tissues in invertebrates (Roeder, 1999). It modulates numerous physiological processes such as motivation, pheromone response, olfaction, ovulation, learning and memory ...

Dopamine modulates acetylcholine release via octopamine and CREB signaling in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Animals change their behavior and metabolism in response to external stimuli. cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) is a signal-activated transcription factor that enables the coupling of extracellular signals and gene expression to induce ...
