ZOOLOGICAL SCIENCE 8: 827-833 (1991) © 1W1 Zoological Society ofJapan REVIEW Neuroendocrinology of Osmoregulation in Crabs Fred Kamemoto I. 2538 The Mall, Department of Zoology, University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu, Hawaii V6822 — ABSTRACT Neuroendocrine factors regulate water and salt movements in hyperregulating crabs. Two factors are found in the thoracic ganglion and hemolymph. A water soluble factor decreases water influx while an acetone soluble factor increases influx into the animal via the posterior gills. Dopamine, found in the pericardial organ, and cAMP increase sodium uptake in the gill. Addi- tionally, these compounds increase Na+K+ATPase activities of the gills. Na+K+ATPase is an adaptive enzyme, responding to decreases in the environmental salinity. Exposure ofcrabs to dilute salinity also causes increases in heart rates in response to cardioexcitors ofthe pericardial organ. All of these activities are involved in the integration of osmoregulation in crabs. brain and thoracic ganglion may be involved in INTRODUCTION maintaining salt and water balance. Studies were Crabs (Brachyura.
