Genetic variability of Akhal-Teke horses bred in Italy [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Background The Akhal-Teke horse (AKH) is native of the modern Turkmenistan area. It was introduced in Italy from 1991 to 2000 mainly as an endurance horse.

The adipokinetic hormone family in Chrysomeloidea: structural and functional considerations

open access: yesZooKeys, 2016
The presented work is a hybrid of an overview and an original research paper on peptides belonging to the adipokinetic hormone (AKH) family that are present in the corpora cardiaca of Chrysomeloidea.

Aliskiren Hemifumarate Proliposomes for Improved Oral Drug Delivery: Formulation Development, In Vitro and In Vivo Permeability Testing

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
The objective of this study was to develop proliposomal formulations for a poorly bioavailable drug, aliskiren hemifumarate (AKH). A solvent evaporation method was used to prepare proliposomes using different lipids.

Akh Purattim 3

open access: yes, 2015
Akk Purattim, ou « les rives de l'Eupkrate », est une des expressions utilisées au xviiie siècle av. J.-C. pour désigner le royaume de Mari, qui s'étendait de la confluence du Khabour au verrou de Baghouz, actuellement à la frontière syro-irakienne. La série ainsi dénommée, précisée par son sous-titre « Mémoires d'archéologie et d'histoire régionales ...

Disruption of Adipokinetic Hormone Mediated Energy Homeostasis Has Subtle Effects on Physiology, Behavior and Lipid Status During Aging in Drosophila

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
The impact of disruption of adipokinetic hormone (AKH) signaling was studied during aging in Drosophila in a sexually dimorphic manner. A mutant (Akh1) producing a non-functional AKH peptide was compared with isogenized wild-type controls (w1118), and ...

Sex determination gene transformer regulates the male-female difference in Drosophila fat storage via the adipokinetic hormone pathway

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Sex differences in whole-body fat storage exist in many species. For example, Drosophila females store more fat than males. Yet, the mechanisms underlying this sex difference in fat storage remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify a key role for

Five Neuropeptide Ligands Meet One Receptor: How Does This Tally? A Structure-Activity Relationship Study Using Adipokinetic Bioassays With the Sphingid Moth, Hippotion eson

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Biological impact, oxidative stress and adipokinetic hormone activities of Agrotis ipsilon in response to bioinsecticides

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2022
The use of biological control products enhances the reduction of harmful pressures on the environment caused by the use of conventional pesticides. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the toxicity of eight bioinsecticides on the black cutworm Agrotis ...

Structure-Activity Studies on the Hypertrehalosemic Hormone II of the Stick Insect Carausius morosus (Phasmatodea): Carbohydrate-Mobilization and Cardio-Stimulatory Activities

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
The corpora cardiaca of the Indian stick insect, Carausius morosus, synthesize two decapeptide neuropeptides of the adipokinetic hormone (AKH) family, both of which can increase the trehalose levels in the hemolymph when the stick insect is ligated ...

Structure–activity studies of Drosophila adipokinetic hormone (AKH) by a cellular expression system of dipteran AKH receptors [PDF]

open access: yesGeneral 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 ...
