Analytical method for synephrine and octopamine in citrus fruits, drinks containing citrus fruit, and human urine was developed using gas chromatography / mass spectrometry(GC/MS), Silylation with MSTFA, acetylation with MBTFA, and trimethylsilylation with MSTFA followed by trifiuoroacetylation with MBTFA were compared. The selective derivatization of synephrine and octopamine was optimized with two derivatizing reagents ; MSTFA and MBTFA. The ion at m/z 267 was monitored to characterize the benzyl group of the both compounds. Synephrine was detected in the concentrations of 0.46∼1.88 ug/g for citrus fruits and 1.2∼8.1 ug/ml for drinks. The urinary excretion data of synephrine showed the highest concentration at the period of 8-20 hours after drinking orange juices and total amounts of its urinary excretion calculated as a parent compound was 11-14% of a dose during 48 hours. Octopamine was not detected in citrus fruits, drinks, and human urine.

Lateral giant (LG)-mediated escape response of crayfish is sensitized by natural traumatic events. Such sensitization has previously been shown to be associated with increased transmission between primary afferents and sensory interneurons at the cholinergic synapse of LG escape reflex circuit. In the present study, it was firstly investigated as to whether transmission is also altered at other synapses of the LG-escape reflex circuit by traumatic shock-induced sensitization. Evidence that traumatic shock also directly affects the excitability of lateral giants is now provided by the finding that traumatic shock produces a significant reduction of the time needed for LG to recruit its contralateral homologue, which is defined as commissural delay. Octopamine, a naturally occurring neuromodulator in the crayfish nerve cord, has also been shown to enhance transmission at the cholinergic synapse between primary afferents and sensory interneurons, and has been conjectured to mediate sensitization. Like traumatic shock, $octopamine\;(10^{-5}-5{\times}10^{-4}\;M)$ also enhanced the efficacy of commissural transmission between lateral giants, as indicated by a significant reduction of commissural delay. This effect was blocked by an octopamine antagonist phentolamine, suggesting a specific action of octopamine on the octopamine receptor present on LGs. These observations suggest that both traumatic shocks and octopamine may cause a rather broad alteration in the excitability of the crayfish nervous system that contributes to the sensitization of the LG escape response.

Phenylformamidine계 유도체들은 곤충의 신경전달 물질인 octopamine과 경쟁적으로 octopamine receptor에 작용하여 살충 활성을 나타내는 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 불소를 함유하는 다양한 aniline으로부터 amitraz와 유사한 구조의 새로운 화합물을 합성하여 이들의 살충활성을 시험하였다. N'-monomethyl-N-phenylformamidine 유도체들 중에서 2h, 2k, 21, N',N'-dimethyl-N-phenylformamidine 유도체들 중에서 3g, 3h, 3k 화합물이 응애류와 진딧물류에 대해서 높은 살충 활성을 보였으며, 1,3,5-triaza-penta-1,4-diene 유도체들 중에서 4f, 4g 화합물들이 응애류에 대해서 높은 살충 활성을 보였다.

To evaluate the contribution of cAMP/PKA signal pathway in short-term facilitation, we overexpressed Ap oal receptor in sensory neurons that do not normally express this receptor. We have previously shown that activation of this receptor in sensory cells, by a brief treatment with octopamine (OA), produced short-term facilitation such as membrane depolarization, increase in membrane excitability, spike broadening, and enhanced neurotransmitter release in non-depressed synapse.(omitted)

Arylsulfatase는 간단한 Phenols류의 황에스테르 화합물로부터 S $O_{4}$$^{[-992]}$ - 이온의 유리를 촉매한다. 이 효소는 토양센균을 포함한 많은 미생물과 동식물의 조직등에 널리 분포하여 있으며 이와 같은 넓은 분포는 이 효소의 기본적 기능이 환경학적으로 매우 중요한 의미를 갖는다고 하겠다. Arylsulfatase에 대한보고는 Klebsiella sp를 사용하여 몇몇 보고가 있다. 본 연구는 6종의 Serratia sp를 사용하여 arylsulfatase 합성조건을 검토하고 효소의 정제조건과 성질에 대하여 조사하여 Serratia marcescens를 선정하였다. Serratia mrcescens는 탄소원으로서 xylose rhamnose, glucosamine 그리고 arabinose등과 같은 몇몇 당을 이용하지 못했으며 glucose와 mannitol을 잘 이용하였으나 glucose methioniue의 경우 효소 합성을 억제시키었다. 유황원으로서는 무기유황염과 methionine의 첨가는 억제되었으며 tyramine의 첨가에 의해서 효소 함성의 억제효과는 해제되었다. 효소의 정제는 황산암모늄 포화용액의 분획과 DEAE-Cellulose, CM-Cellulose 그리고 DEAE-Sephadex A-25로 연결되는 구분 분획에 의해서 행하여졌다. 효소의 분자량은 SDS-gelelectrophoresis와 Sephadex G-100 column chromatography에 의하여 각각 46,000과 49,000으로 측정되었고 최적 PH는 6.8이었다. P-Nitrophenyl sulfate를 사용한 Km과 Vmak치는 각각 2.5$\times$$10^{4-}$M과 20 nmoles/min/mg protein이었다. 기질에 대한 특성은 phenylsulfte와 ο-, p-nit-rophenyl sulfate 그리고 p-nitro catechol sulfate에 대해서 높은 활성을 보였다. Hydroxylamine, inorganic fluoride, sulfide 그리고 Phosphate등은 강한 효소 저해작용을 나타내었고 무기유산염은 저해작용을 보여주지 않았다. Tyramine, octopamine그리고 dopamine과 같은 amino acid 또한 강한 저해 작용을 보였다.

Basically insect hormones include ecdysteroids (molting hormone), juvenile hormones, and neurohormones comprising neuropeptides and biogenic amines. This article reviewed their chemical structures and biological functions. The active molting hormone is 20-hydroxyecdysone in most insects but makisterone A in some other insects including the honey bee and several phytophagous hemipterans. Most insects use JH III, but lepidopterans JH I and II. Dipterans also use a different JH, so-called JH $B_3$(JH III bisepoxide) and we still do not know the exact chemical structure of JH utilized in hemipterans. Some other insects use methyl farnesoate or hydroxylated JH III analogues as their juvenile hormone. Most diverse pictures can be found in neurohormones (NH), especially in neuropeptides, in terms of their number and structure. There are more than 200 neuropeptides (NP), classified into more than 30 families, which structures have been identified, and more of them are expected to be reported in the near future, partly due to rapid development in molecular biological techniques and in analytical techniques. More than half of them are involved in controlling activity of visceral muscles. But function (s) of many NPs are not clarified yet, even though their amino acid sequences have been identified. It is partly due to the fact that a single NP may have multiple functions. Another interesting point is their gene structure, having many number of independent, active peptides in one gene, apparently working for similar or totally different functions. NH also includes amines, such as octopamine, dopamine, serotonin, etc. From now on, investigation will be concentrated on identifying their function (s) and receptors, and on possibilities of their utilization as control agents against pest insects.
