Insects are the most numerous class of animals or earth, both in terms of their number and their variety. There are 800,000 recognized species, with between 1 and 10 million estimated species yet to be classified. This book will discuss, mechanics of

When injected into adult or nymphal Locusta that have been deprived of food for 2 h, immunogens such as laminarin and bacterial LPS can induce an almost immediate dose-dependent state of anorexia for at least 1 h. Such anorexia is a component of a me

A key step in Escherichia coli K1 meningitis is the crossing of the blood-brain barrier by the bacteria in order to gain entry into the central nervous system (CNS). In this study, a novel ex vivo model to study E. coli K1 invasion of the CNS is desc

It is shown here for the first time that locusts can be used as a model to study Escherichia coli K1 pathogenesis. E. coli K-12 strain HB101 has very low pathogenicity to locusts and does not invade the locust brain, whereas the injection of 2 × 10

Injections of Bacillus, or of blastospores from the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae, activate the prophenoloxidase (PPO) cascade, and coinjection of adipokinetic hormone-I (AKH) enhances and prolongs these responses. When injected con

Our knowledge on primary structure, synthesis, release, receptor binding, structure-activity relationships, mode of action and degradation of, mainly, neuropeptides from insects has increased dramatically during the last 10 years or so. Here, five ca

The potencies of natural adipokinetic hormones and synthetic variants have been determined in Locusta migratoria using the lipid mobilisation assay in vivo, and/or the acetate uptake assay in vitro. These data are combinations of previously published

In vertebrates, the peptides cholecystokinin (CCK), neuropeptide Y, galanin, and bombesin are known to be involved in the control of food intake. We report here that insect sulfakinins, peptides which display substantial sequence similarities with th

Several structural characteristics in the molecule of the locust adipokinetic hormone, AKH-I, have been investigated in terms of their importance in determining biologic activity. All modifications tested in this study resulted in analogues with decr
