Direct and widespread role for the nuclear receptor EcR in mediating the response to ecdysone in Drosophila

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Nuclear receptors (NRs) are sequence-specific DNA binding proteins that act as intracellular receptors for small molecules such as hormones.

Independent elaboration of steroid hormone signaling pathways in Metazoans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Steroid hormones regulate many physiological processes in vertebrates, nematodes and arthropods through binding to nuclear receptors (NR), a metazoan-specific family of ligand-activated transcription factors.

Ash2 acts as an ecdysone receptor coactivator by stabilizing the histone methyltransferase Trr. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The molting hormone ecdysone triggers chromatin changes via histone modifications that are important for gene regulation. On hormone activation, the ecdysone receptor (EcR) binds to the SET domain-containing histone H3 methyltransferase trithorax-related

Effects of contaminants of emerging concern on Megaselia scalaris (Lowe, Diptera: Phoridae) and its microbial community. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Drought, rising temperatures, and expanding human populations are increasing water demands. Many countries are extending potable water supplies by irrigating crops with wastewater.

Comparative proteomic profiling reveals molecular characteristics associated with oogenesis and oocyte maturation during ovarian development of Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Time-dependent expression of proteins in ovary is important to understand oogenesis in insects. Here, we profiled the proteomes of developing ovaries from Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) to obtain information about ovarian development with particular ...

The steroid-hormone ecdysone coordinates parallel pupariation neuromotor and morphogenetic subprograms via epidermis-to-neuron Dilp8-Lgr3 signal induction

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Pupariation in Drosophila is triggered by the steroid-hormone ecdysone and requires coordination between associated behavioral and body-reshaping motor subprograms.

Experimental Control and Characterization of Autophagy in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Insects such as the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, which fundamentally reorganize their body plan during metamorphosis, make extensive use of autophagy for their normal development and physiology.

EcR recruits dMi-2 and increases efficiency of dMi-2-mediated remodelling to constrain transcription of hormone-regulated genes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
InDrosophila, ecdysone-regulated genes are bound by a heterodimer of ecdysone receptor (EcR) and Ultraspiracle. Here, the authors provide evidence of a non-canonical complex containing EcR and the nucleosome remodeller dMi-2 that limits transcription of ...

Effect of precocene II, ecdysone and juvenile Hormone on the glicogen concentration in pupae of Stomocys calcitram (Diptera muscidae)

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1988
Third instar larvae of Stomoxys calcitrans (L.) were treated with precocene II, ecdysone and juvenile hormone. The larvae were allowed to develop until pupation and when it occurred, determination of glycogen levels was assayed.

Coordinated regulation of niche and stem cell precursors by hormonal signaling. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2011
Stem cells and their niches constitute units that act cooperatively to achieve adult body homeostasis. How such units form and whether stem cell and niche precursors might be coordinated already during organogenesis are unknown.
