The removal of sulphate by the excretory apparatus of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria.
The excretion of sulphate by the isolated Malpighian tubules of Calliphora vomitoria has been investigated. Contrary to expectation, it was found that the isolated tubules are freely permeable to sulphate. The rate of sulphate secretion is comparable to the rates of secretion of both phosphate and chloride. The excretion of sulphate by the intact fly has also been verified.
متن کاملCallatostatins: neuropeptides from the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria with sequence homology to cockroach allatostatins.
Five neuropeptides with C-terminal amino acid sequence homology to cockroach allatostatins have been identified in the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria. Three have the same pentapeptide C-terminal amino acid sequence as allatostatin 1 of the cockroach Diploptera punctata. A hexadecapeptide designated callatostatin 1, isolated from thoracic ganglia, brains, and heads, has the sequence Asp-Pro-Leu-As...
متن کاملCallitachykinin I and II, two novel myotropic peptides isolated from the blowfly, Calliphora vomitoria, that have resemblances to tachykinins.
Two peptides, related to the locust myotropic peptides locustatachykinin I-IV, were isolated from the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria. Whole, frozen flies were used for extraction with acidified methanol. A cockroach hindgut muscle contraction bioassay was used for monitoring fractions during subsequent purification steps. A series of eight different high performance liquid chromatography column s...
متن کاملThe effects of larval crowding and food type on the size and development of the blowfly, Calliphora vomitoria.
The use of entomological evidence in the estimation of the post mortem interval (PMI) often depends on the size and developmental stage of blowfly larvae collected from a corpse. Therefore, factors which can have an effect on the larval size and growth rate can have implications for reliable PMI determinations. This study explores the competitive effects of larval overcrowding on Calliphora vom...
متن کاملSeveral forms of callitachykinins are distributed in the central nervous system and intestine of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria.
We have examined the distribution of two tachykinin-related neuropeptides, callitachykinin I and II (CavTK-I and CavTK-II), isolated from whole-animal extracts of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria. Extracts of dissected brains, thoracic-abdominal ganglia and midguts of adult blowflies and the entire central nervous system of larval flies were analysed by high performance liquid chromatography (H...
