CAP2b, a cardioacceleratory peptide, is present in Drosophila and stimulates tubule fluid secretion via cGMP

It is shown that the major action of the cardioacceleratory peptide CAP2b in the Malpighian tubules of Drosophila melanogaster is that it stimulates fluid secretion by the tubules. A Drosophila CAP2b-related peptide stimulates fluid secretion by Malpighian tubules through the guanosine 3',5...

Zusammenfassung:It is shown that the major action of the cardioacceleratory peptide CAP2b in the Malpighian tubules of Drosophila melanogaster is that it stimulates fluid secretion by the tubules. A Drosophila CAP2b-related peptide stimulates fluid secretion by Malpighian tubules through the guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate-signaling pathway.
