Figure 6. Dopaminergic activity is influenced by dietary proteins and CCHa1. Different sensory modalities can be gated independently.
(A) (I) Arousability from sleep on regular food (gray) vs peptone-supplemented food (blue), in controls (PAMMB441B>GFP-RNAi and UAS-CCHa1R-RNAi) and in flies with the CCHa1 receptor depleted from PAMMB441B neurons (PAMMB441B >CCHa1-RNAi, purple outline). (B) Activity of PAMMB441B neurons on regular vs protein-supplemented food. Purple outline, flies in which the CCHa1 receptor is depleted from PAMMB441B neurons. (C) Activity of PAMMB441B neurons on regular vs protein-supplemented food, with or without exposure to mechanical vibrations. (D) Arousability from sleep in response to heat. (E) Arousability by heat on regular vs peptone-supplemented food. (F) Arousability by heat in controls vs animals with the CCHa1 receptor depleted from PAMMB441B neurons. (G) Schematic.
