Description générale

α-Ecdysone is a phytoecdysteroid, synthesized from cholesterol, and one of the major insect molting hormones. Ecdysone is secreted by the ecdysial glands present in insects.

Application

α-Ecdysone has been used:
  • to study its effects on Drosophila melanogaster′s sexual maturation
  • to study its effects on specification of neurons in Drosphila male-specific neurite
  • as a standard to evaluate the ecdysteroid levels by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Ecdysone exerts its effects via the ecdysone receptor and regulates larval molting, reproduction, and metamorphosis in insects.

The concentration changes of endogenous ecdysteroids are closely related to the regulation of insect growth and development. Although they are frequently measured by immunoassays with anti-steroid antibodies, the separate estimations of the individual concentrations of ecdysone and other ecdysteroids with

Steroid hormones act as important developmental switches, and their nuclear receptors regulate many genes. However, few hormone-dependent enhancers have been characterized, and important aspects of their sequence architecture, cell-type-specific activating and repressing functions, or the regulatory roles of their chromatin

Three distinct classes of nuclear receptors, EcR, E75, and HR3, are key regulators in the ecdysone-inducible gene activation cascade in insects. The transcription of these genes is induced by ecdysone (20E) differently, although the detailed mechanisms underlying their responses to
