Obranné reakce včel vůči přírodním toxinům
KAINZOVÁ, Klára
The aim of this master thesis was to describe the effect of honeybee venom on several physiological characteristics in the honeybees Apis mellifera themselves. They included the expression and level of vitellogenin in selected organs, AKHs production in CNS, level of dopamine in brain, fat body and Malpighian tubules, oxidative stress (the activity of catalase) and the structure of thoracic muscles in workers and drones. Results showed that the bee venom did not change the AKH level in CNS. However, the envenomation decreased the expression of vitellogenin in fat body, as well as the level of vitellogenin proteins both in fat body and haemolymph. Catalase activity was increased in the gut of workers but decreased in the gut of drones. The venoms application slightly increased dopamine levels in the fat body, brain and Malpighian tubules, but only in the fat body the rise was significant. Honeybee venom damaged the structures of myofibrils and mitochondria in the thoracic muscles of workers, however, co-application of the venom with AKH generally abolished this effect; situation in drones remains unknown.
