Book ChapterDOI
Biogenic Amines in the Insect Nervous System
TL;DR: This chapter takes a view of biogenic amines in the insect nervous system and to assess critically the evidence for their roles as neurotransmitters, neuromodulators and neurohormones.
Journal ArticleDOI
The identification of an octopaminergic neurone and the modulation of a myogenic rhythm in the locust.
Peter D. Evans,Michael O'Shea +1 more
TL;DR: An octopaminergic neurone in an insect is demonstrated and the effects of DUMETi on a myogenic rhythm in the extensor muscle of the locust metathoracic leg can be mimicked by superfusion with low concentrations of octopamine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serotonin and serotonin-immunoreactive neurons in the nervous system of insects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histochemistry of putative transmitter substances in the insect brain
TL;DR: The present review attempts to evaluate the available histochemical data bearing on the possible transmitter roles of various candidate compounds in these animals and to call attention to cases where this has happened.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifiable neurons in the locust central nervous system that react with antibodies to serotonin.
TL;DR: A detailed account is given of a number of neurons in the locust central nervous system that react with antibody raised to serotonin‐albumin complex and are identified from cobalt, Golgi, and osmium ethyl gallate methods.

Journal Article
A study of the factors affecting the aluminum oxide-trihydroxyindole procedure for the analysis of catecholamines
Aaron H. Anton,David F. Sayre +1 more
TL;DR: A reliable, quantitative, highly sensitive, adaptable method for the estimation of catecholamines in diverse biological material from various vertebrate species is presented and the specificity of the method has been more clearly delineated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A sensitive and specific fluorescence assay for tissue serotonin
TL;DR: With this method, it is possible to measure serotonin in organs in which endogenous serotonin had not been previously detected and to study the subcellular distribution of this amine in the rat pineal and adrenal glands.

The distribution of dopamine and dopa in various animals and a method for their determination in diverse biological material
Aaron H. Anton,David F. Sayre +1 more
TL;DR: In the paper, "The Distribution of Dopamine and Dopa in Various Animals and a Method for Their Determination in Diverse Biological Material" by A. H. Anton and D. F. Sayre, on page 333, second column, the second sentence of the first paragraph should read: "Abnormally high levels of homovanillic acid and vanilmandelic acid had been found in several of these same specimens by gas chromatography."
Journal ArticleDOI
The quantitative distribution of 5-hydroxytryptamine in the invertebrates, especially in their nervous systems.
John H. Welsh,Merilyn Moorhead +1 more
TL;DR: It is clear that 5-HT is found in primitive nervous systems and that its presence in the vertebrate central nervous system is only a recent part of a long phyloenetic history, while some interesting differences between phyla, for example between Arthropoda and Mollusca, and between classes within a phylum, are shown.
