This figure shows four regions of the brain consistently recruited during functional neuroimaging studies when an individual is thinking about the mental states of others. These regions include the temporoparietal junction (TPJ), posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS), anterior temporal cortex (ATC), and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). The colored spheres represent areas within the mPFC (both hemispheres are represented), that decrease in recruitment during mentalizing tasks between adolescence and adulthood.

Shown here is a triple-stained image of the Drosophila melanogaster larval heart tube. The posterior third of the heart (shown here) is contractile in nature and contains the pacemakers that regulate hemolymph pumping in response to both glutamate and CCAP (crustacean cardioactive peptide) (Dulcis and Levine, 2005). The larval heart is stained with FITC conjugated Phalloidin (green) to mark Actin filaments in both the heart muscles and the abdominal body wall muscles, an antibody against the Drosophila homolog of the SERCA protein (red; sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Calcium ATPase) (Sanyal, et. al., 2005; Sanyal et. al., 2006), and an antibody MAb3 that labels pericardial cells surrounding the heart tube (blue) (Yarnitzky and Volk, 1995).
