Ecdysis Triggering Hormone Signaling (ETH/ETHR-A) Is Required for the Larva-Larva Ecdysis in Bactrocera dorsalis (Diptera: Tephritidae) [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 Insects must undergo ecdysis for successful development and growth, and the ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH), released by the Inka cells, is a master hormone in this process. In this study, we determined the sequence of the ETH precursor and receptors in

The Ecdysis Triggering Hormone System, via ETH/ETHR-B, Is Essential for Successful Reproduction of a Major Pest Insect, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2019 Ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH), released by the Inka cells, is a master hormone in regulating the ecdysis process in insect. Here we investigated the presence and role of the ETH signaling in the female adult of the oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera ...

Regulation of Drosophila Long-Term Courtship Memory by Ecdysis Triggering Hormone [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 Endocrine state is an important determinant of learning and memory in animals. In Drosophila, rejection of male courtship overtures by mated females leads to an aversive response manifested as courtship memory.

The Intricate Role of Ecdysis Triggering Hormone Signaling in Insect Development and Reproductive Regulation [PDF]
Insects, 2023 Insect growth is interrupted by molts, during which the insect develops a new exoskeleton. The exoskeleton confers protection and undergoes shedding between each developmental stage through an evolutionarily conserved and ordered sequence of behaviors ...

Functional Characterization of Ecdysis Triggering Hormone Receptors (AgETHR-A and AgETHR-B) in the African Malaria Mosquito, Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Insect ecdysis behavior, shedding off the old cuticle, is under the control of specific neuropeptides with the top command by the ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH).

Two Splice Isoforms of Leptinotarsa Ecdysis Triggering Hormone Receptor Have Distinct Roles in Larva-Pupa Transition [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2020 Insect ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH) receptors (ETHRs) are rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors. Upon binding its ligand ETH, ETHR initiates a precisely programed ecdysis behavior series and physiological events.

Ecdysis triggering hormone signaling in arthropods. [PDF]
Peptides, 2010 Ecdysis triggering hormones (ETHs) from endocrine Inka cells initiate the ecdysis sequence through action on central neurons expressing ETH receptors (ETHR) in model moth and dipteran species. We used various biochemical, molecular and BLAST search techniques to detect these signaling molecules in representatives of diverse arthropods.

Ecdysis triggering hormone peptide in the African malaria mosquito Anopheles gambiae: The peptide structure for receptor activation. [PDF]
Insect Sci, 2022 AbstractInfections by mosquito‐borne diseases represent one of the leading causes of death in third world countries. The rapid progression of resistance to conventional insecticide causes a significant threat to the highly efficient preventive methods currently in place.

Ecdysis triggering hormone signaling in the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti. [PDF]
Gen Comp Endocrinol, 2009 At the end of each developmental stage, the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti performs the ecdysis behavioral sequence, a precisely timed series of behaviors that culminates in shedding of the old exoskeleton. Here we describe ecdysis triggering hormone-immunoreactive Inka cells located at branch points of major tracheal trunks and loss of staining ...
