In nearly every species of insect, embryonic development takes place outside of the mother’s body and is entirely dependent on the elements that the mother had previously stored within the eggs. It is well known that the follicle cells (FCs) synthe

Use of FGF21 analogs for the treatment of metabolic disorders: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Publikováno v:
Archives of Endocrinology and Metabolism, Vol 68 (2023)
ABSTRACT FGF21 is a hormone produced primarily by the liver with several metabolic functions, such as induction of heat production, control of glucose homeostasis, and regulation of blood lipid levels. Due to these actions, several laboratories have

The energy stored in fatty acids is essential for several critical activities of insects, such as embryogenesis, oviposition, and flight. Rhodnius prolixus is an obligatory hematophagous hemipteran and vector of Chagas disease, and it feeds infrequen

The high reproductive rates of insects contribute significantly to their ability to act as vectors of a variety of vector-borne diseases. Therefore, it is strategically critical to find molecular targets with biotechnological potential through the fu

Insects are unable to synthesize cholesterol and depend on the presence of sterols in the diet for cell membrane composition and hormone production. Thus, cholesterol absorption, transport, and metabolism are potential targets for vector and pest con

The acyl-CoA-binding proteins (ACBP) act by regulating the availability of acyl-CoA in the cytoplasm and must have essential functions in lipid metabolism. The genome of the kissing-bug Rhodnius prolixus encodes five proteins of this family, but litt

The bloodsucking hemipteran Rhodnius prolixus is a vector of Chagas' disease, which affects 7-8 million people today in Latin America. In contrast to other hematophagous insects, the triatomine gut is compartmentalized into three segments that perfor
