為慶祝螞蟻金服延期在港交所上市，今集我們會講解一種頗為特別的螞蟻品種–跳躍掠針蟻(Harpegnathos saltator)。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6f2X3RiUNA

蟻后一大群工蟻是的統領，管治一道族群，主職生蛋生育，而工蟻則負責出外捕獵食物，把糧食送到帶到巢穴。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyR1gYl0WH

當蟻后死去後，跳躍掠針蟻的其中一隻工蟻便會擔當蟻后的角色，維持族群安寧，而這個偽蟻后我們稱之為Gamergate。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1YRiH7MJx

這種工蟻轉變成偽蟻后的現象，暫時只有在跳躍掠針蟻這品種能夠觀察得到，並沒能在其他螞蟻品種中觀察得到。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlslT1GX6n

（圖3）這種獨特的現象自當然引起各科學家的興趣。而有科學家發現（Ref1)，Worker轉變成為Gamergate後，腦部的Corazonin蛋白質含量會大幅度下降;594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYhiiPsVbT
往Worker腦部注射Corazonin蛋白質的話，則會減低螞蟻的潛在生蛋能力。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9T8QyODT7

而最為匪夷所思的是，當Worker轉變成為Gamergate後，其平均壽命會由5個月遞升至3年有多!594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4wcw2DNmT

由工蟻變成偽蟻后的確切機制，現今一直還在發掘之中，其腦部結構性的轉變相信是扮演著非常重大的角色。594Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKQxeYmFXx
