Ecdysteroids: A novel class of anabolic agents?

Biology of Sport, 2014
Increasing numbers of dietary supplements with ecdysteroids are marketed as "natural anabolic agents". Results of recent studies suggested that their anabolic effect is mediated by estrogen receptor (ER) binding. Within this study the anabolic potency of ecdysterone was compared to well characterized anabolic substances.

Squalenoylated Nanoparticle Pro-Drugs of Adjuvant Antitumor 11α-Hydroxyecdysteroid 2,3-Acetonides Act as Cytoprotective Agents Against Doxorubicin and Paclitaxel

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Several ecdysteroid acetonides act as adjuvant chemo-sensitizing agents against various cancer cell lines, and they can be formulated to self-assembling nanoparticle (NP) pro-drugs through a hydrolysable conjugation with squalene. In the bloodstream such

Juvenile hormone‐mediated accelerated post‐flight recovery of ovarian development in Loxostege sticticalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Flight in female beet webworms (Loxostege sticticalis) promotes an increase in feeding, thereby enhancing abdominal energy reserves. Following flight, the flight muscles undergo accelerated histolysis, and the energy substances undergoing histolysis are redirected to the ovaries. These two processes collectively promote ovarian development.

From flower buds to bolls: how cotton reproductive structures shape boll weevil development, reproduction and survival

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Female boll weevils feeding on flower buds promote reproduction regardless of their immature diet, whereas boll feeding increases lipid reserves and lifespan, revealing a nutrition‐driven trade‐off that sustains survival and reproduction in tropical boll weevil populations.

In silico analysis of crustacean hyperglycemic hormone family G protein-coupled receptor candidates

Frontiers in Endocrinology
Ecdysteroid molting hormone synthesis is directed by a pair of molting glands or Y-organs (YOs), and this synthesis is inhibited by molt-inhibiting hormone (MIH).

Diving Deeper Into Mechanisms of Acrylamide‐Induced Toxicity: RNA Sequencing Reveals Transcriptomic Alteration and Retrotransposon Expression in Drosophila melanogaster

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Given the inevitability of human and animal exposure to acrylamide, there is increasing concern regarding its potential health risks. While a number of molecular mechanisms have been proposed, the complexity of acrylamide toxicological pathways and interactions remains incompletely characterized.

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a
