Trace amines are endogenous compounds classically regarded as comprising β-
phenylethyalmine, p-tyramine, tryptamine, p-octopamine, and some of their metabolites …

▪ Abstract Octopamine (OA) and tyramine (TA) are the invertebrate counterparts of the
vertebrate adrenergic transmitters. They are decarboxylation products of the amino acid …

The unfolded protein response (UPR), caused by stress, matches the folding capacity of
endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the load of client proteins in the organelle,. In yeast …

Astrocytes associate with synapses throughout the brain and express receptors for
neurotransmitters that can increase intracellular calcium (Ca2+),,. Astrocytic Ca2+ signalling …

Octopamine biosynthesis requires tyrosine decarboxylase to convert tyrosine into tyramine
and tyramine β-hydroxylase to convert tyramine into octopamine. We identified and …

In the central nervous system (CNS) of both vertebrates and invertebrates, biogenic amines
are important neuroactive molecules. Physiologically, they can act as neurotransmitters …

Insect octopamine receptors are G-protein coupled receptors. They can be coupled to
second messenger pathways to mediate either increases or decreases in intracellular cyclic …

Biogenic amines regulate a variety of behaviors. Their functions are predominantly mediated
through G-protein-coupled 7-transmembrane domain receptors (GPCR), 16 of which are …

This paper reports the role of the tyramine (TA) receptor cascade in the insecticidal activity of
plant essential oils. A TA receptor cDNA encoding a putative seven transmembrane domain …

Biogenic amines are believed to play important roles in producing behaviors. Although
some biogenic amines have been extensively studied in both vertebrates and invertebrates …
