Drosophila melanogaster has been introduced recently as a model organism in which to study the mechanisms by which drugs of abuse change behavior and by which the nervous system changes upon repeated drug exposure. Surprising similarities between flies and mammals have begun to emerge at the behavioral, neurochemical and molecular levels.
黑腹果蝇最近已被引入作为一种模式生物,用于研究滥用药物改变行为的机制以及神经系统在反复接触药物后发生变化的机制。在行为、神经化学和分子水平上,果蝇和哺乳动物之间惊人的相似之处已开始显现。
