By adding dopamine or serotonin to a bath with snail's isolated nervous system and by intracellular activation of giant cerebral serotonergic cells it was established in neurophysiological experiments that, in spite of activating effect of serotonin on buccal motorneurones, dopamine is the transmitter triggering feeding movements of the buccal mass and feeding pattern in buccal motorneurones. This conclusion is confirmed by behavioural experiments in which an experimental group was injected by neruotoxin 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine selectively impairing serotonergic neurones. The consumatory phase of feeding (triggered by dopamine) did not change in treated animals, while the appetitive phase was significantly impaired. It was noted that the giant metacerebral cell was activated during burst activity in buccal motoneurones. The conclusion is made that giant serotonergic cerebral cells only modulate but do not trigger the feeding behaviour in the snail Helix lucorum.
