Starting from precocenes I and II, four of their derivatives with a lactone moiety were obtained. The compounds have been assessed as antifeedants against several diverse insect species including the storage pests the confused flour beetle (Tribolium confusum Duv., larvae
Cytochrome P450 3A4 is a drug-metabolizing enzyme of extraordinarily broad substrate specificity. This quality imparts upon the enzyme special importance in understanding its determinants of activity and substrate recognition. Limited successes in P450 3A4 active-site structure studies have been achieved

Maternally inherited intracellular bacteria Wolbachia cause both parasitic and mutualistic effects on their numerous insect hosts, including manipulating the host reproductive system in order to increase the bacteria spreading in a host population, and increasing the host fitness. Here, we
Investigations were carried out to determine the role of juvenile hormone (JH) and 20-hydroxy ecdysone in the synthesis and uptake of vitellogenins, which were earlier identified, purified and characterised, in Dysdercus koenigii. The concentration(s) of vitellogenin(s) in fat body, haemolymph

Proallatotoxins, and particularly precocenes, are exceptionally promising models for studying Rhodnius prolixus physiology and for comparison with other natural compounds with antihormonal activities. Effects of precocenes on feeding, development and reproduction of R. prolixus are being detailed. The precocenes reveal
