General description

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)

Biochem/physiol Actions

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

Juvenile hormone (JH) has an ability to repress the precocious metamorphosis of insects during their larval development. Krüppel homolog 1 (Kr-h1) is an early JH-inducible gene that mediates this action of JH; however, the fine hormonal regulation of Kr-h1 and
