Unsignaled stress can have profound effects on animal behavior. While most
investigation of stress-effects on behavior follows chronic exposures,
less is understood about acute exposures and potential after-effects. We
examined walking activity in Drosophila following acute exposure to high
temperature or electric shock. Compared to initial walking activity, flies
first increase walking with exposure to high temperatures then have a
strong reduction in activity. These effects are related to the intensity
of the high temperature and number of exposures. The reduction in walking
activity following high temperature and electric shock exposures survives
context changes and lasts at least five hours. Reduction in the function
of the biogenic amines octopamine / tyramine and serotonin both strongly
blunt the increase in locomotor activity with high temperature exposure.
However, neither set of biogenic amines alter the long lasting depression
in walking activity after exposure.
