Distribution and functional significance of Leu-callatostatins in the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria
Cell and Tissue Research, 1994The Leu-callatostatins are a series of four neuropeptides isolated from nervous tissues of the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria that show C-terminal sequence homology to the allatostatins of cockroaches. The allatostatins have an important role in the reproductive processes of insects as inhibitors of the synthesis and release of juvenile hormone from the ...

Electron Spin Resonance Investigations of Allium cepa, and Calliphora vomitoria
Nature, 1959RECENT publications of Commoner, Townsend and Pake1 and Truby and Goldzieher2 have shown the value of electron-spin resonance studies in detecting the presence of free radicals in biological tissues. During the course of a survey of free radicals in biological tissues we noted that two tissues in particular gave strong signals.

Parasitology Research, 2013
The blowflies Calliphora vicina and Calliphora vomitoria are among the first colonizers of human remains in Europe. Laboratory development studies with immature stages of these blowflies for postmortem interval (PMI) calculations are generally performed on different media such as processed food substrates or liver of various animals.

Localisation of sulfakinin neuronal pathways in the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria
Cell and Tissue Research, 1994The distribution of neurones immunoreactive to antisera raised against the undecapeptide C-terminal fragment of drosulfakinin II (DrmSKII), Asp-Gln-Phe-Asp-Asp-Tyr(SO3H)-Gly-His-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2, has been studied in the blowfly Calliphora vomitoria. Antisera were preabsorbed with combinations of the parent antigen, the tetrapeptide Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2 ...

Cell and Tissue Research, 1982
The distribution of a neuropeptide, previously shown to have the same or a very similar amino acid composition as vertebrae pancreatic polypeptide (PP), has been studied in the nervous system gut of the blowfly, Calliphora vomitoria. Neurones immunoreactive to a bovine PP antiserum occur in the thoracic and abdominal ganglionic components of the ...

Biological characteristics of the Calliphora vomitoria agglutinin
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 1992The galactose specific agglutinin from Calliphora vomitoria was found to be expressed in the haemolymph of all the larval instars, but could not be detected at any other time during the life cycle. The haemagglutinating activity was insensitive to wounding of the tegument or injection of saline; however, a significant increase in haemagglutinating ...

Intestinal Proteinases in an Insect, Calliphora vomitoria L.
Nature, 1961THE properties of the proteolytic enzymes occurring in extracts of insect guts are generally thought to resemble those of vertebrate trypsin1,2. Only proteinases of alkaline type, with maximum activity about pH 8, have been recorded in Calliphora adults3, Lucilia larvae4, Musca larvae5, Stomoxys adults6, and Calliphora larvae7.

Cuticular hydrocarbons of Calliphora vomitoria (Diptera): Relation to age and sex
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1992Changes in epicuticular hydrocarbon content and composition were examined from 3 to 120 hr postemergence in both sexes of Calliphora vomitoria. n-Alkanes and mono- and dimethylalkanes with 20 to 31 carbon atoms were the major hydrocarbons detected. Alkenes were only detected in the females.

Rhodanese in the blow-fly, Calliphora vomitoria L.
Journal of Insect Physiology, 1962Abstract Two stocks of Calliphora vomitoria L. were tested for the presence of rhodanese. Activity to the order of 5 rhodanese units per gramme of tissue (fresh weight) was found in larvae, pupae, and adults.

Cell death in the salivary glands of metamorphosing calliphora vomitoria
Cell Biology International, 1993AbstractThe salivary gland cells of Calliphora vomitoria larvae initiate and complete their own destruction in a programmed manner at the onset of metamorphosis.On entering the post‐feeding period the larvae come to rest and the polytene salivary gland cells show a significant increase in DNA synthesis followed closely by a surge of mRNA synthesis ...
