The paper functionally characterizes three tyramine receptors in Aedes aegypti, revealing their distinct pharmacological profiles and ligand specificity.

This study characterizes RYamide signaling in Aedes aegypti, identifying its expression patterns and deorphanizing two RYamide receptors linked to hindgut physiology.

This study quantifies the release kinetics of diuretic and anti-diuretic neuropeptides in female Aedes aegypti post-bloodmeal to understand their role in regulating urine secretion.

This study shows that Drosophila tachykinins function as diuretic hormones by activating ion transport in Malpighian tubules, aiding in hydromineral balance.

This paper characterizes the ITP signaling system in Drosophila, identifying ITPa as an anti-diuretic hormone that acts via the Gyc76C receptor to modulate osmoregulation and metabolic homeostasis.

This paper identifies a neuroendocrine pathway in Drosophila that modulates osmotic and ionic stress tolerance through the interaction of Corazonin and CAPA neuropeptides.

This study investigates GPA2/GPB5 subunit interactions and signaling in Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, finding that they form homodimers and that heterodimerization is required for receptor activation.
