Chemical Treatments for Insect Cell Differentiation: The Effects of 20-Hydroxyecdysone and Veratridine on Cultured Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf21) Insect Cell Ultrastructure [PDF]
Insects, 2021 Previous studies have shown that insect cell cultures stop dividing, form clumps, and can be induced to grow processes reminiscent of axons, when the culture medium is supplemented with 20-hydroxyecdysone, insulin, or an agent that mimics their action ...

20-Hydroxyecdysone-responsive microRNAs of insects [PDF]
RNA Biology, 2020 20-Hydroxyecdysone (20-HE) plays essential roles in coordinating developmental transitions of insects through responsive protein-coding genes and microRNAs (miRNAs). The involvement of single miRNAs in the ecdysone-signalling pathways has been extensively explored, but the interplay between ecdysone and the majority of miRNAs still remains largely ...

20-hydroxyecdysone dilates muscle arterioles in a nitric oxide-dependent, estrogen ER-β receptor-independent manner [PDF]
Phytomedicine Plus, 2021 Background: 20-hydroxyecdysone is an ecdysteroid which is abundant in plants and insects and has anabolic potentials in mammals. It was recently shown to have affinity for estrogen ER-β receptor, which could potentially make it vasodilatory.
