Regional variation in the current flow across an insect blood-brain barrier
, 1990 One notable characteristic of the insect and vertebrate central nervous system is the presence of a clearly defined blood-brain barrier. In the insect this barrier is made up of the perineurial glial cells, and shows a heterogeneity in structure and ...

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 13, Page 3517-3537, July 2026.Human α7 receptors have been characterised in terms of pharmacological properties. Insertion of the N‐terminal domain of the human α7 subunit leads to honeybee and cockroach chimeric receptors activated by ACh and inhibited by α‐Bgt. Insertion of the human cys‐loop leads to cockroach chimeric receptors modulated by PNU.

The Mechanism of Secretion by the Salivary Gland of the Cockroach Periplaneta Americana (L.) [PDF]
Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1951 The two main cell types of the cockroach salivary gland, the ductule-containing cells and the zymogenic cells, are together responsible for the secretion of a powerful amylase and a mucoid substance. The evidence presented suggests that the precursors of both these materials are elaborated in the zymogenic cells and are passed to the ductule-containing

Insects and Survival: A Review of Primary and Secondary Defense Strategies
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 7, Page 601-624, July 2026.Based on a review of three decades of literature, insect defense mechanisms are classified into primary (I) and secondary (II) mechanisms of behavioral, morphological, and chemical nature. These mechanisms have been recorded in 22 (I) and 20 (II) orders, respectively.

THE ODOROUS ATTRACTANT OF THE AMERICAN COCKROACH, PERIPLANETA AMERICANA (L.) [PDF]
Journal of General Physiology, 1954 1. Procedures have been developed for studying quantitatively the response of the male American cockroach to the odorous attractant of the female. 2. The percentage of male roaches responding to extracts of the attractant of the female has been found to vary with the log of the concentration of the attractant throughout a wide range.
