These results seem to argue against the possibility that Acks induction in the brains of workers involved in the formation of a hot defensive bee ball or heat - exposed workers represents mere «heat shock response».

This Acks signal distribution pattern in the brains of workers exposed to heat well resembles that observed in the brains of workers involved in the formation of the hot defensive bee ball (Figure 4, Figure S3, and Figure S4).

Here, we first demonstrated that Acks signals were detected in the MBs, especially in the Class II KCs of workers at 30 or 60 min after the bee ball formation, and neurons located in a restricted area between the DLs and the OLs of workers at 60 min whereas they were scarcely detected at 0 min (Figure 4, Figure S3, and Figure S4), strongly suggesting that these neurons are highly activated in the brains of workers involved in forming the hot defensive bee ball.
