The function of two P450s, CYP9M10 and CYP6AA7, in the permethrin resistance of Culex quinquefasciatus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases play a critical role in insecticide resistance by allowing resistant insects to metabolize insecticides. Previous studies revealed that two P450 genes, CYP9M10 and CYP6AA7, are not only up-regulated but also induced in ...

GPR39-mediated ERK1/2 signaling reduces permethrin-induced proliferation of estrogen receptor α-negative cells

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Certain insecticides are known to have estrogenic effects by activating estrogen receptors through genomic transcription. This has led researchers to associate specific insecticide use with an increased breast cancer risk.

Molecular basis of permethrin and DDT resistance in an Anopheles funestus population from Benin

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2018
Insecticide resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes is threatening the success of malaria control programmes. In order to implement suitable insecticide resistance management strategies, it is necessary to understand the underlying mechanisms involved.

Present and future potential of plant-derived products to control arthropods of veterinary and medical significance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The use of synthetic pesticides and repellents to target pests of veterinary and medical significance is becoming increasingly problematic. One alternative approach employs the bioactive attributes of plant-derived products (PDPs). These are particularly

Permethrin, a pyrethroid insecticide, regulates ERK1/2 activation through membrane depolarization-mediated pathway in HepG2 hepatocytes.

open access: yesFood and Chemical Toxicology, 2018
Permethrin is a pyrethroid insecticide that acts thru membrane depolarization and is known to disrupt calcium levels in neurons. Disrupted calcium homeostasis is linked to oxidative stress as well as many other cellular mis-functions and permethrin has ...

Experimental hut comparisons of nets treated with carbamate or pyrethroid insecticides, washed or unwashed, against pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes.

open access: yes, 2004
The efficacy against mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) of a bednet treated with carbamate insecticide [carbosulfan capsule suspension (CS) 200 mg/m(2)] was compared with four types of pyrethroid-treated nets in veranda-trap huts at Yaokoffikro near Bouaké,
