Thermal imprinting modifies adult stress and innate immune responsiveness in the teleost sea bream [PDF]
The impact of thermal imprinting on the plasticity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-interrenal (HPI) axis and stress response in an adult ectotherm, the gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata, L.), during its development was assessed.

Identification and Functions of JHE 6 Specifically Expressed in Bombyx mori Silk Gland
Juvenile hormone esterase (JHE) is the specific enzyme that degrades juvenile hormone (JH) and regulates the JH titer in insects. JH also regulates the development of the silk gland and the synthesis and secretion of silk proteins in Bombyx mori.
