  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Serotonergic control in initiating defensive responses to unexpected tactile stimuli in the trap-jaw ant Odontomachus kuroiwae
    Hitoshi Aonuma
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb228874 doi: 10.1242/jeb.228874 Published 9 October 2020

    Highlighted Article: The serotonergic system in the nervous system contributes to the initiation of defensive turn responses to unexpected tactile stimuli in the trap-jaw ant.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    A mutation in monoamine oxidase (MAO) affects the evolution of stress behavior in the blind cavefish Astyanax mexicanus
    Constance Pierre, Naomie Pradère, Cynthia Froc, Patricia Ornelas-García, Jacques Callebert, Sylvie Rétaux
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb226092 doi: 10.1242/jeb.226092 Published 28 September 2020

    Summary: A mutation in the serotonin neurotransmitter pathway that lowers basal stress levels but increases the amplitude of stress response can spread in cavefish populations living in singular environments.

  • COMMENTARY
    The stalk-eyed fly as a model for aggression – is there a conserved role for 5-HT between vertebrates and invertebrates?
    Andrew N. Bubak, Michael J. Watt, Jazmine D. W. Yaeger, Kenneth J. Renner, John G. Swallow
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb132159 doi: 10.1242/jeb.132159 Published 2 January 2020

    Summary: We propose that the role of 5-HT in modulating invertebrate aggression is more nuanced than previously appreciated; there is evidence for distinct roles of 5-HT receptor subtypes in stalk-eyed flies, similar to the situation in vertebrates.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Effects of monoamine manipulations on the personality and gene expression of three-spined sticklebacks
    Robin N. Abbey-Lee, Anastasia Kreshchenko, Xavier Fernandez Sala, Irina Petkova, Hanne Løvlie
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2019 222: jeb211888 doi: 10.1242/jeb.211888 Published 16 October 2019

    Summary: Serotonergic and dopaminergic gene expression causally explains aspects of stickleback personality. Human pharmaceuticals make sticklebacks bolder, demonstrating consequences of human medical waste for wildlife.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Anti-diuretic action of a CAPA neuropeptide against a subset of diuretic hormones in the disease vector Aedes aegypti
    Farwa Sajadi, Carmela Curcuruto, Afra Al Dhaheri, Jean-Paul V. Paluzzi
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb177089 doi: 10.1242/jeb.177089 Published 6 April 2018

    Summary: AedaeCAPA-1 inhibits select diuretic factors involved in Malpighian tubule fluid and ion secretion in Aedes aegypti, probably via the second messenger cGMP.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The stomatogastric nervous system of the medicinal leech: its anatomy, physiology and associated aminergic neurons
    Karen A. Mesce, Magda Alania, Quentin Gaudry, Joshua G. Puhl
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb175687 doi: 10.1242/jeb.175687 Published 29 March 2018

    Summary: Blood feeding is a signature activity of the medicinal leech. The presence and characteristics of the stomatogastric nervous system, vital for feeding, are reported here for the first time.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    SERT gene polymorphisms are associated with risk-taking behaviour and breeding parameters in wild great tits
    Killu Timm, Kees Van Oers, Vallo Tilgar
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb171595 doi: 10.1242/jeb.171595 Published 27 February 2018

    Summary: Genetic variability of the serotonin transporter gene plays an important role in shaping individual decision-making that affects fitness in a wild population of great tits.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The gastric caecum of larval Aedes aegypti: stimulation of epithelial ion transport by 5-hydroxytryptamine and cAMP
    Natalie M. D'Silva, Michael J. O'Donnell
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb172866 doi: 10.1242/jeb.172866 Published 20 February 2018

    Summary: Transport of H+, Na+ and K+ across the gastric caecum of larval mosquitoes is stimulated by serotonin acting through the intracellular messenger cAMP.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Myogenic activity and serotonergic inhibition in the chromatophore network of the squid Dosidicus gigas (family Ommastrephidae) and Doryteuthis opalescens (family Loliginidae)
    Hannah E. Rosen, William F. Gilly
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 4669-4680; doi: 10.1242/jeb.164160

    Summary: A comparative physiological and immunohistochemical examination of coordinated activity among squid chromatophores in the absence of neural control and serotonin inhibition.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    How do individuals cope with stress? Behavioural, physiological and neuronal differences between proactive and reactive coping styles in fish
    Marco A. Vindas, Marnix Gorissen, Erik Höglund, Gert Flik, Valentina Tronci, Børge Damsgård, Per-Ove Thörnqvist, Tom O. Nilsen, Svante Winberg, Øyvind Øverli, Lars O. E. Ebbesson
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2017 220: 1524-1532; doi: 10.1242/jeb.153213

    Summary: Fish characterised with opposite coping styles show telencephalic region-specific differences associated with their behavioural responses to stimuli.
