Ultraspiracle: An invertebrate nuclear receptor for juvenile hormones [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997 Juvenile hormones (JH), a sesquiterpenoid group of ligands that regulate developmental transitions in insects, bind to the nuclear receptor ultraspiracle (USP). In fluorescence-based binding assays, USP protein binds JH III and JH III acid with specificity, adopting for each ligand a different final conformational state.

Fat Body—Multifunctional Insect Tissue
Insects, 2021 The biodiversity of useful organisms, e.g., insects, decreases due to many environmental factors and increasing anthropopressure. Multifunctional tissues, such as the fat body, are key elements in the proper functioning of invertebrate organisms and ...

Structure-Function Relationships of Glycoprotein Hormones and their Subunits' Ancestors
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2015 Glycoprotein hormones (GPHs) are the most complex molecules with hormonal activity. They exist only in vertebrates but the genes encoding their subunits ancestors are found in most vertebrate invertebrate species although their roles are still unknown.In

Inter-population variability in the reproductive morphology of the shore crab (Carcinus maenas): Evidence of endocrine disruption in a marine crustacean? [PDF]
, 2005 Environmental contaminants that are capable of causing endocrine disrupting effects are currently a major cause for concern. These chemicals are known to influence the reproductive development of vertebrates by mimicking or antagonising the actions of ...

Supplementary feeding increases nestling feather corticosterone early in the breeding season in house sparrows [PDF]
, 2017 Several studies on birds have proposed that a lack of invertebrate prey in urbanized areas could be the main cause for generally lower levels of breeding success compared to rural habitats.
