Octopamine controls starvation resistance, life span and metabolic traits in Drosophila.

Scientific reports - 19 Oct 2016

Abstract excerpt

The monoamines octopamine (OA) and tyramine (TA) modulate numerous behaviours and physiological processes in invertebrates. Nevertheless, it is not clear whether these invertebrate counterparts of norepinephrine are important regulators of metabolic and life history traits. We show that flies (Drosophila melanogaster) lacking OA are more resistant to starvation, while their overall life span is substantially...
