octopamine and Starvation

octopamine has been researched along with Starvation in 9 studies

Octopamine: An alpha-adrenergic sympathomimetic amine, biosynthesized from tyramine in the CNS and platelets and also in invertebrate nervous systems. It is used to treat hypotension and as a cardiotonic. The natural D(-) form is more potent than the L(+) form in producing cardiovascular adrenergic responses. It is also a neurotransmitter in some invertebrates.
octopamine : A member of the class of phenylethanolamines that is phenol which is substituted at the para- position by a 2-amino-1-hydroxyethyl group. A biogenic phenylethanolamine which has been found to act as a neurotransmitter, neurohormone or neuromodulator in invertebrates.

Starvation: Lengthy and continuous deprivation of food. (Stedman, 25th ed)

"Octopamine was not required for starvation-induced changes in feeding behaviors, suggesting independent regulations of energy intake behaviors upon starvation."5.42Octopamine mediates starvation-induced hyperactivity in adult Drosophila. ( Qi, W; Tian, Y; Wang, L; Yang, Z; Yu, Y; Zhang, V, 2015)
" We hypothesized that starvation and isolation affected levels of brain biogenic amines including dopamine (DA) and octopamine (OA) - neuromediators modifying various insect behaviors - and tested the relationship between brain biogenic amines and social behaviors of stressed ants."3.77Social interactions influence dopamine and octopamine homeostasis in the brain of the ant Formica japonica.

"Starvation is probably the most common stressful situation in nature."1.43Octopamine connects nutrient cues to lipid metabolism upon nutrient deprivation. ( Ma, YC; Tao, J; Yang, ZS; Zhang, KQ; Zou, CG, 2016)
