Behavioral evidence of oxidative stress derived from haematophagy in the ocellar system of Rhodnius prolixus Stal, 1859 red-eyed mutants

The photonegative responses to light stimulation in Rhodnius prolixus (Reduviidae, Triatominae) is modulated by compound eyes and ocelli. Screening pigments in the visual system have been shown to protect the cellular structures from oxidative stress damage generated by ingesting blood and light sti...
