Abstract

The effect of a neuropeptide, the TACHYKININ on a-amylase, protease and lipase activities in the MIDGUT of American cockroach, PERIPLANETA AMERICANA (Linnaeus) is evaluated. Immunohistochemical reactivities against TACHYKININ (TACHYKININ-ir) were detected in the MIDGUT. TACHYKININ-ir cells in three regions (anterior, median and posterior) of the MIDGUT were counted in normally fed, starved for four weeks and refed cockroaches. The number of TACHYKININ-ir cells decreased during 4 weeks of starvation and increased 3 h after refeeding. The results of the competitive ELISA were consistent with the profile of immunohistochemical reactivity. Incubation of the dissected MIDGUT with TACHYKININ led to an increase in α-amylase, protease and lipase activities while the buffer remained ineffective. TACHYKININ injection into the hemocoel increased a-amylase, protease and lipase activities, but PBS injection showed no sign of effectiveness. The results seggest that nutrients upregulate MIDGUT cells secreting TACHYKININ causing further activities of DIGESTIVE ENZYMES.
