Changes in lipophorins are related to the activation of phenoloxidase in the haemolymph of Locusta migratoria in response to injection of immunogens [PDF]

, 2003
In Locusta migratoria, activation of phenoloxidase in the haemolymph in response to injection of laminarin is age-dependent: being absent in fifth instar nymphs and newly emerged adults, and only becoming evident four days after the final moult.

Symbiont‐Induced HSP83 Establishes Two‐Tiered Control of Antifungal Immunity in an Invasive Beetle–Fungus Complex

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In an invasive beetle–fungus complex, the mutualist Leptographium procerum induces host HSP83 and modulates Toll‐dependent antifungal immunity. HSP83 mediates two‐tiered control by associating with selected fungal recognition receptors and restraining Dorsal‐driven antimicrobial peptide transcription.

Control of the greater and lesser wax moths (Galleria mellonella and Achroia grisella) with Bacillus thuringiensis

, 1968
A commercial formulation of Bacillus thuringiensis incorporated into cold beeswax, and hence into bee combs, controlled the wax moths, Galleria mellonella and Achroia grisella, without harming the bees (Apis mellifera). Treated combs used continuously by

Evolutionary trade‐offs between beauvericin production and growth define divergent virulence strategies in Beauveria

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Two virulence strategies in Beauveria: a growth strategy characterized by rapid within‐host proliferation, and a toxin strategy involving antimicrobial activity and toxicity to insects Abstract BACKGROUND Pathogen virulence is often attributed to toxin production, yet toxins are metabolically costly and may not universally enhance fitness.

Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in the Shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Heller, 1862): Assessment in an Environmental Preservation Area in the Brazilian Amazon

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic activities generate a significant amount of pollutants that are released into the environment, causing physiological and ecological disturbances. Among the xenobiotics present in aquatic ecosystems, numerous chemical and organic compounds have oxidative potential or are metabolized through oxidative processes, which may amplify ...

Correlation of phospholipase and proteinase production of Candida with in vivo pathogenicity in Galleria mellonella

Brazilian Journal of Oral Sciences, 2015
An essential factor to the virulence of the genus Candida is the ability to produce enzymes and this may be crucial in the establishment of fungal infections.
