| In neurons, exogenous mushroom body octopamine receptors activate the same signal pathway as endogenous mGluRs, suggesting that diverse neuronal responses mediated by Gq-coupled receptors are due to the properties of different neurons. | Use of the exogenous Drosophila octopamine receptor gene to study Gq-coupled receptor-mediated responses in mammalian neurons.
