Cellular Proteomes Drive Tissue-Specific Regulation of the Heat Shock Response
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017 The heat shock response (HSR) is a cellular stress response that senses protein misfolding and restores protein folding homeostasis, or proteostasis.

Detection of vitellogenin in a subpopulation of sea urchin coelomocytes [PDF]
, 1994 Sea urchin vitellogenin is a high molecular weight glycoprotein, which is the precursor of the major yolk protein present in the unfertilized egg. Vitellogenin processing into the major yolk protein and its further enzymatic cleavage during sea urchin ...

Metformin promotes lifespan through mitohormesis via the peroxiredoxin PRDX-2 [PDF]
, 2014 The antiglycemic drug metformin, widely prescribed as first-line treatment of type II diabetes mellitus, has lifespan-extending properties. Precisely how this is achieved remains unclear.

, 2020 Vitellogenin (VTG) is known to be a female-specific protein and a precursor form of egg yolk. Threevitellogenin,Vtg I,Vtg II and Vtg III have been identified in chicken.Vitellinogen precursors supply the major egg yolk proteins which are a source of nutrients during early development of egg-laying (oviparous) vertebrates and invertebrates.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.An intronless version of the white pupae (wp) gene was engineered to restore the wild type brown puparium color in white pupae phenotype mutants of the Mediterranean fruit fly, Ceratitis capitata. Functionality of the minimal gene version (mini‐wp) was verified in vivo, as one copy of mini‐wp successfully restored the wild type phenotype in homozygous ...

Chromosome‐scale genome assembly of the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus sp.1
Insect Science, EarlyView.Anastrepha fraterculus sp. 1 is a major fruit fly pest in Argentina, currently controlled through chemical treatments and traps. This study aims to enhance the genomic understanding of this species to support the development of sterile insect technique as well as the use of innovative technologies.

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus
Insect Science, EarlyView.Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a
