Central Non-NMDA Receptors of a Honey Bee with Hereditary Kynurenine Deficiency

  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

Pharmacological characteristics of non-NMDA receptors involved in associative learning were studied in wild honey bees (normal) and carriers of snow laranja mutation (kynurenine deficiency) by pharmacological analysis and behavioral criteria. The effects of systemic injections of non-NMDA receptor agonists (AMPA, kainic, quisqualic, and domoic acids), AMPA receptor antagonist (NS257-HCl), and AMPA receptor modulator (cyclothiaside) on retention of conditioned reflexes in short-term memory (1 min after the end of learning) were studied. The pharmacological characteristics of non-NMDA receptors were changed in snow laranja mutants with kynurenine deficiency.
