CDCH induces ovulation and egg-mass production; it may also stimulate synthesis of secretory products in the female accessory sex glands and affect neurons in the neuronal circuits controlling locomotion and feeding. Calfluxin is involved in the influx of calcium into mitochondria of the albumen gland. CDCA (or alpha-CDCP) triggers the electrical activity of the caudodorsal cells (CDCS). Belongs to the molluscan ELH family.
