Structure–activity studies of Drosophila adipokinetic hormone (AKH) by a cellular expression system of dipteran AKH receptors [PDF]
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 2012 Structure-activity studies for the adipokinetic hormone receptor of insects were for the first time performed in a cellular expression system. A series of single amino acid replacement analogues for the endogenous adipokinetic hormone of Drosophila melanogaster (pGlu-Leu-Thr-Phe-Ser-Pro-Asp-Trp-NH(2)) were screened for activity with a bioluminescence ...

A neuronal relay mediates a nutrient responsive gut/fat body axis regulating energy homeostasis in adult Drosophila [PDF]
, 2019 The control of systemic metabolic homeostasis involves complex inter-tissue programs that coordinate energy production, storage, and consumption, to maintain organismal fitness upon environmental challenges.

Changes in lipophorins are related to the activation of phenoloxidase in the haemolymph of Locusta migratoria in response to injection of immunogens [PDF]
, 2003 In Locusta migratoria, activation of phenoloxidase in the haemolymph in response to injection of laminarin is age-dependent: being absent in fifth instar nymphs and newly emerged adults, and only becoming evident four days after the final moult.

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019 Adipokinetic hormones (AKHs) play a major role in mobilizing stored energy metabolites during energetic demand in insects. We showed previously (i) the sphingid moth Hippotion eson synthesizes the highest number of AKHs ever recorded, viz.

Primary role of adipokinetic hormone in the formation of low density lipophorin in locusts.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1990 It was demonstrated that the primary action of adipokinetic hormone (AKH) is to stimulate calcium ion uptake into the fat body cell, subsequently causing the formation of diacylglycerol from triacylglycerol. Furthermore, it was also shown that AKH is not

Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Using the blood-sucking kissing bug, Rhodnius prolixus as an experimental model, we have studied the involvement of insulin-like peptides (ILPs) and adipokinetic hormone (AKH) signaling in carbohydrate metabolism, focusing on the regulation of the ...
