Juvenile hormone mimics induce a cellular immune response in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

microPublication Biology
It is well-known that exposure to juvenile hormone mimics induces a variety of aberrant developmental and physiological effects in insects. One such effect in Drosophila melanogaster is the appearance of melanized tumor-like structures in larval stages ...

Molecular insights into juvenile hormone maturation by juvenile hormone acid methyltransferase [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry
Juvenile hormone acid methyltransferase (JHAMT) is an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of juvenile hormone (JH) in insects, catalyzing the methylation of farnesoic acid and JH acids to produce active JHs. Given its important role in JH biosynthesis, JHAMT has attracted significant interest as a potential target for pest control strategies ...

Juvenile hormone regulates the maturation of sexually dimorphic naive ethanol olfactory preference in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science
The molecular mechanisms underlying the maturation of innate reward behaviours remain poorly understood. We have identified a sexually dimorphic innate reward behaviour in Drosophila melanogaster that varies depending on the age, sex and mating status in

The seminal vesicle is a juvenile hormone-responsive tissue in adult male Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

Open Biology
Juvenile hormone (JH) is one of the most essential hormones controlling insect metamorphosis and physiology. While it is well known that JH affects many tissues throughout the insect life cycle, the difference in JH responsiveness and the repertoire of ...

Functional characterization of a juvenile hormone esterase related gene in the moth Sesamia nonagrioides through RNA interference. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Juvenile hormone esterase (JHE) is a carboxylesterase that has attracted great interest because of its critical role in regulating larval to adult transition in insects and other arthropods.

Analysis of genes expression of Spodoptera exigua larvae upon AcMNPV infection. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: The impact of Autographa californica multicapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) infection on host gene expression in Spodoptera exigua 4th instar larvae was investigated through the use of 454 sequencing-based RNA-seq of cDNA libraries ...

Juvenile Hormone Studies in Drosophila melanogaster

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
In the field of insect endocrinology, juvenile hormone (JH) is one of the most wondrous entomological terms. As a unique sesquiterpenoid hormone produced and released by the endocrine gland, corpus allatum (CA), JH is a critical regulator in multiple ...

Abnormal development in larvae of Sesamia nonagrioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) resulting from baculovirus-mediated overexpression of a JHE-related gene (SnJHER)

European Journal of Entomology, 2017
The Mediterranean corn borer Sesamia nonagrioides (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) has a unique and recently multiplied juvenile hormone esterase gene family (SnJHER) with particular transcriptional profiles and functional characteristics.

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

Memorias 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.
