Description

Leucokinin VIII is a diuretic peptide found in insects. Leucokinin VIII decreases membrane resistance in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Leucokinin VIII increases permeability of gap junctions in Anopheles Malphigian tubes, allowing passage of ions and smaller compounds such as inulin and sucrose.
