  Research Description

I studie the embryonic development of Lymnaea stagnalis. My main research interests are to describe the role of three neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamin and octopamine) in embryogenesis of Lymnaea stagnalis. These biogen amines are important modulators of different forms of behaviours (locomotion, feeding, respiration) as well as the embryonic development in this snail species. In the project biochemical and immuncytochemical methods are used as tools to study effects of amines. I treat the embryos with these amines and their agonists and antagonists to characterize the influence of these amines on behaviours during embryonic lifespan. The changes of behaviours are observed using stereomicroscop. On the other hand, I also treat the embryos with nuerotoxins and enzyme inhibitors and I investigate the change in the length of embryonic life, as well as I use HPLC for the detection and quantification of transmitters to clear, whether or not they have effect on different developmental stages.
