Insect adipokinetic hormones

Peptides, 1985
Peptides with adipokinetic (and usually carbohydrate-mobilizing) potency have been demonstrated in various insects, including Locusta migratoria, Schistocerca gregaria, Manduca sexta, Danaus plexippus and Periplaneta americana. As far as characterized by now the adipokinetic factors are blocked peptides, consisting of eight to ten amino acid residues ...

Studies on insect adipokinetic hormones

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1972
An adipokinetic factor is present in the corpora cardiaca of Schistocerca gregaria, Locusta migratoria, Periplaneta americana, and Tenebrio molitor. A large in vivo adipokinetic response can be demonstrated in the locusts and the mealworm, but not in the cockroaches Periplaneta americana and Gromphadorhina portentosa.

Degradation of adipokinetic hormones

Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1992
Abstract Homogenates from various tissues of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria , produced identical patterns of breakdown products when incubated with the neuropeptide adipokinetic hormone I (AKH I). Comparison of disappearance of AKH I from the incubation medium of semi-isolated and isolated Malpighian tubules (MTs) and fat body pieces ...

Adipokinetic hormones: cell and molecular biology

Experientia, 1992
Adipokinetic hormones AKH I (pGlu-Leu-Asn-Phe-Thr-Pro-Asn-Trp-Gly-Thr-NH2) and AKH II (pGlu-Leu-Asn-Phe-Ser-Trp-Gly-Thr-NH2) are synthesized by neurosecretory cells (NSC) of the corpora cardiaca (CC) in the locust, Schistocerca gregaria. These NSC constitute a homogeneous 'peptide factory' as each cell synthesizes both AKH I and AKH II.

New insights into adipokinetic hormone signaling

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 1998
Flight activity of insects comprises one of the most intense biochemical processes known in nature, and therefore provides an attractive model system to study the hormonal regulation of metabolism during physical exercise. In long-distance flying insects, such as the migratory locust, both carbohydrate and lipid reserves are utilized as fuels for ...
