Serotonin and neuropeptide F have opposite modulatory effects on fly aggression
@article{Dierick2007SerotoninAN, title={Serotonin and neuropeptide F have opposite modulatory effects on fly aggression}, author={H. Dierick and R. Greenspan}, journal={Nature Genetics}, year={2007}, volume={39}, pages={678-682} }
Both serotonin (5-HT) and neuropeptide Y have been shown to affect a variety of mammalian behaviors, including aggression. Here we show in Drosophila melanogaster that both 5-HT and neuropeptide F, the invertebrate homolog of neuropeptide Y, modulate aggression. We show that drug-induced increases of 5-HT in the fly brain increase aggression. Elevating 5-HT genetically in the serotonergic circuits recapitulates these pharmacological effects, whereas genetic silencing of these circuits makes the… CONTINUE READING
