Objectives Bombyx mori is the key contributor to industrial silk production. The maximum production of silk occurs during 5th instar. The posterior silk glands in the larvae are responsible for the production of the main component of silk fibre—fibroin ...

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Studies on Hydrocarbons of Bombyx mori L.
The chemical structure of hydrocarbons in the silkworm was shown as comparing with that in the mulberry leaf by means of gas chromatographic technique and mass spectrometry. The hydrocarbons from both the silkworm and mulberry leaf consisted of a mixture of odd-and even-numbered carbons and major hydrocarbons in the wings were C34 to C36 those in both ...

The UDP-glucosyltransferase multigene family in Bombyx mori [PDF]
Abstract Background Glucosidation plays a major role in the inactivation and excretion of a great variety of both endogenous and exogenous compounds. A class of UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) is involved in this process.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

Human corneal epithelial equivalents constructed on Bombyx mori silk fibroin membranes [PDF]
Membranes prepared from a protein, fibroin, isolated from domesticated silkworm (Bombyx mori) silk, support the cultivation of human limbal epithelial (HLE) cells and thus display significant potential as biomaterials for ocular surface reconstruction ...

Overview of Research onBombyx morimicroRNA [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) constitute some of the most significant regulatory factors involved at the post-transcriptional level after gene expression, contributing to the modulation of a large number of physiological processes such as development, metabolism, and disease occurrence.

Silk–Hyaluronic Acid Laryngoplasty Outcomes: An Independent Tertiary Center Experience
Silk–hyaluronic acid (silk‐HA) injection laryngoplasty demonstrated favorable voice outcomes for glottic insufficiency in an independent tertiary academic voice center experience. In a within‐patient comparison, silk‐HA showed comparable efficacy to prior HA injection, with 79.3% of patients reporting partial to significant improvement.
