Fig. 7. Antagonism between Tenebrio molitor peptides controlling Malpighian tubule secretion and between their second messengers. Effect of adding Tenmo-ADF (ADF) to tubules already stimulated with Tenmo-DH37 (DH37) (both at concentrations of 100 nmol l–1) compared with the effect of adding cyclic GMP to tubules already stimulated with cyclic AMP (both at concentrations of 0.5 mmol l–1). Secretion rates were measured after 45 min of each treatment. Values are means + 1 S.E.M. for eight tubules (peptides) or seven tubules (second messengers). C, control rates.
