Serotonin receptors expressed in Drosophila mushroom bodies differentially modulate larval locomotion.

Drosophila melanogaster has been successfully used as a simple model to study the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying behaviors, including the generation of motor programs. Thus, it has been shown that, as in vertebrates, CNS biogenic amines (BA) including serotonin (5HT) participate in mot...
