The larvae of the specialist sawflyRhadinoceraea nodicornis Konow (Hymenoptera, Tenthredinidae) store in their hemolymph ceveratrum alkaloids originating from the host plantVeratrum album L. (Liliales, Melanthiaceae). The major alkaloid found in the hemolymph is 3-acetyl-zygadenine.

The uptake phases of K+curves from control and experimental measurements were compared and statistically evaluated. GABA significantly reduced K+ uptake but it was able to reverse the decrease of K+ uptake caused by protoveratrine.

Our data indicate that efferent autonomic reinnervation takes place first in the atria, followed by a base-to-apex sequence in the ventricles, and that such reinnervation is functionally effective 9-12 mo after denervation. The return of neural function parallels the return of measurable quantities of myocardial norepinephrine and is accompanied by a decrease in supersensitivity to exogenous norepinephrine.
