| description |
Locusta migratoria is a useful model to carryout out laboratory investigations in vivo to study sickness behavior and infection of the central nervous system. Analogous anorectic behavior in rats and locusts, as well as the resemblance in the presence of anatomical and physiological barrier protecting the brain in both species and a large size of locust to inject/extract biomaterials, makes it a highly valuable tool to investigate molecular mechanisms of disease at an early stage of research. |
