Tyramine Actions on Drosophila Flight Behavior Are Affected by a Glial Dehydrogenase/Reductase
The biogenic amines octopamine (OA) and tyramine (TA) modulate insect motor behavior in an antagonistic manner. OA generally enhances locomotor behaviors such as Drosophila larval crawling and flight, whereas TA decreases locomotor activity. However, the mechanisms and cellular targets of TA modulat...
