Abstract:
The endocrine system plays a pivotal role in shaping the mechanisms that ensure successful reproduction. With over a million known insect species, understanding the endocrine control of reproduction has become increasingly complex. Some of the key players include the classic insect lipid hormones juvenile hormone (JH) and ecdysteroids, and neuropeptides such as insulin-like peptides (ILPs). Individual endocrine factors not only modulate their own target tissue but also play crucial roles in crosstalk among themselves, ensuring successful vitellogenesis and oogenesis. Recent advances in omics, gene silencing, and genome editing approaches have accelerated research, offering both fundamental insights and practical applications for studying in-depth endocrine signaling pathways. This review provides an updated and integrated view of endocrine factors modulating vitellogenesis and oogenesis in insect females.
摘要:
内分泌系统在塑造确保成功繁殖的机制中起着关键作用。有超过一百万种已知的昆虫,对生殖内分泌控制的理解变得越来越复杂。一些主要参与者包括经典的昆虫脂质激素少年激素(JH)和蜕皮类固醇,和神经肽,如胰岛素样肽(ILP)。个体内分泌因素不仅调节自身的靶组织,而且在它们之间的串扰中起着至关重要的作用,确保成功的卵黄发生和卵子发生。组学的最新进展,基因沉默,基因组编辑方法加速了研究,为深入研究内分泌信号通路提供基本见解和实际应用。这篇综述提供了调节昆虫雌性卵黄发生和卵子发生的内分泌因素的最新综合观点。
