Inhibition of Dopamine Activity and Response of <i>Rhipicephalus microplus</i> Challenged with <i>Metarhizium anisopliae</i>

Inhibition of Dopamine Activity and Response of <i>Rhipicephalus microplus</i> Challenged with <i>Metarhizium anisopliae</i>

Dopamine modulates ticks and insect hemocytes and links these arthropods’ nervous and immune systems. For the first time, the present study analyzed the effect of a dopamine receptor antagonist on the survival, biological parameters, phagocytic index, and dopamine detection in the hemocytes of ticks...
