Abstract

Serotonin (5-HT) is crucial molecule in animal kingdom. It is involved in control of multiple processes. It might act via transmembrane receptors or via postranslational protein modification (serotonylation). D. gyrociliatus is a marine worm-like invertebrate with quite short lifespan. In this study lifetime experiments were performed. We incubated freshly laid eggs, adult females lifelong in HTP, PCPA and cystamine. Every week we monitored the survived individuals. This was lifelong (about 5 moth) monitoring. The survival analysis demonstrated that PCPA and cystamine reduce lifespan longevity drastically and even in F1 offsprings from mothers with reduced level of serotonin. HTP incubation to the contary extended mean lifespan longevity up to 22 % even in F1 offsprings from mothers with extended levels of serotonin. Thus, our results demonstrated that serotonin impacts lifespan longevity and moreover the level of serotonin in mother organism affects offspring lifespan longevity.
