Theoretical investigation on interaction of octopamine neurotransmitter with BN nanocage

open access: yesChemical Physics Impact
The present investigation addresses the adsorptive response of octopamine neurotransmitter onto the surface of B12N12 nanocage with density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6–311G(d,p) level of theory. Accordingly, the adsorption behaviour and electronic

Thermometer Ions, Internal Energies, and In‐Source Fragmentation in Ambient Ionization

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 260-281, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Ionization and fragmentation are at the core of mass spectrometry. But they are not necessarily separated in space, as in‐source fragmentation can also occur. Here, we survey the literature published since our 2005 review on the internal energy and fragmentation in electrospray ionization sources.

Octopamine influences honey bee foraging preference

open access: yes, 2007
Colony condition and differences in individual preferences influence forage type collected by bees. Physiological bases for the changing preferences of individual foragers are just beginning to be examined. Recently, for honey bees octopamine is shown to

Structural and Molecular Properties of Insect Type II Motor Axon Terminals

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2018
A comparison between the axon terminals of octopaminergic efferent dorsal or ventral unpaired median neurons in either desert locusts (Schistocerca gregaria) or fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) across skeletal muscles reveals many similarities.

Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.

Octopamine in Sexual Behavior

open access: yes, 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 ...

Regulatory mechanisms of reproduction in locusts and grasshoppers

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Regulatory networks composed of numerous coding and noncoding genes play crucial roles in the reproduction of locusts and grasshoppers. This review integrates mechanistic advances in reproductive regulation, highlighting environmentally adaptive pathways and providing prospective targets for eco‐friendly pesticides.

Octopamine mobilizes lipids from honey bee (Apis mellifera) hypopharyngeal glands

open access: yes, 2020
Recent widespread honey bee (Apis mellifera) colony loss is attributed to a variety of stressors, including parasites, pathogens, pesticides and poor nutrition.

Monoaminergic Systems in Flight-Induced Potentiation of Phonotactic Behavior in Female Crickets Gryllus bimaculatus

open access: yesInsects
We have recently shown that experience of flight remarkably enhanced subsequent terrestrial phonotaxis in females in response to the male calling song. Here, we elucidated the possible roles of octopamine and serotonin in the enhancing effect of flying ...

Adrenergic Metabolic and Hemodynamic Effects of Octopamine in the Liver

open access: yes, 2013
The fruit extracts of Citrus aurantium (bitter orange) are traditionally used as weight-loss products and as appetite suppressants. A component of these extracts is octopamine, which is an adrenergic agent.
