Fig. 7. Tachykinin acts through TkR99D to regulate Gr43a brain neurons and fructose-feeding preference.

Fig. 7.

(A) Effect of TkR99D knockdown in Gr43a brain neurons on preference between fructose and d-glucose after 20-hour starvation and their corresponding interactions (n = 18 to 26). (B) Effect of TkR86C knockdown in Gr43a brain neurons on preference between fructose and d-glucose after 20-hour starvation and their corresponding interactions (n = 14 to 19). (C) Model: Tachykinin secretion in sated flies inhibits fructose feeding preference by acting on TkR99D expressed in Gr43a neurons. Values represent mean ± SEM. Statistical tests: one-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc. ns, P > 0.05; *P < 0.05; ***P < 0.001.
