Acetylcholine, GABA, glutamate and NO as putative transmitters indicated by immunocytochemistry in the olfactory mushroom body system of the insect brain
2000
This distribution of glutamate, GABA and ChAT and of NADPH-diaphorase was immunocytochemically and histochemically investigated in the mushroom bodies of the cricket (Gryllus bimaculatus) and of the fruitfly (Drosophila melanogaster). Glutamate and NO are considered as putative transmitters of mushroom body Kenyon cell types. In the input area (calyces) of the mushroom bodies of Drosphila, the majority of olfactory projection neurons is stained with antibodies against ChAT.
