Following our previous report (Yamamoto et al. r19951 Zool. Sci., 12:391-396) in which we demonstrated that protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in larval metamorphosis of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite, we examined the effects of a range of neurotransmitters, including serotonin (5-hydro

In order to clarify the roles of neurotransmitters including serotonin and dopamine in larval settlement (attachment) and metamorphosis of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite, the effects of lisuride, which acts as both a serotonin agonist/antagonist and a dopamine agonist, were examined. Lisuride did n
During our study on signal transduction systems involved in larval settlement and metamorphosis of the barnacle Balanus amphitrite, we could detect calmodulin, a major intracellular calcium-binding protein, in both cyprids and adult barnacles using immunoblot technique. In order to examine roles of
