There has been a growing amount of research works on the determination of JH titers at various physiological levels in a variety of insect species, yet our knowledge concerning JH titer lags behind that of ecdysteroid titer. The reasons are: (ⅰ) JH titers in most insects seem to be generally quite low, and (ⅱ) it is difficult to separate JH from the lipids that are present in rather large quantities and have similarities in chemical and physical properties.展开更多

In the "Introduction", the writer defines magical realism and discusses its connections to Women's Studies. The next section, "The Bitter Butter Knife", discusses the protagonist's (Ruth Puttermesser) boring existence and pathetic attempts to connect to her Jewish ancestry. In "The Problematic Paradise", the author focuses on Puttermesser's attempts to take control of her life by creating the first female golem and the ups and downs of paradise. This author argues that the female protagonist of the novel utilizes magical realism as a tool of empowerment over personal oppression.展开更多

Developmental changes in hemolymph ecdysteroid level, ecdysteroid synthesis by prothoracic glands (PGs) in vitro, prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) activity in brain extracts, and PTTH activity in the hemolymph we...Developmental changes in hemolymph ecdysteroid level, ecdysteroid synthesis by prothoracic glands (PGs) in vitro, prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) activity in brain extracts, and PTTH activity in the hemolymph were measured during the fifth larval instar of the Eri silkworm, Samia cynthia ricini. The changing patterns of hemolymph ecdysteroid level and ecdysteroid synthesis by laGs in vitro are similar to each other, with maximums on day 9. However, on this day, hemolymph ecdysteroid level was substantially higher than ecdysteroid synthesis by PGs in vitro suggesting a high PTTH activity in the hemolymph on day 9. Moreover, the changing pattern of PTTH activity in brain extracts is also similar to that of PTTH activity in the hemolymph, both peaking on day 9. However, on this day, activity in brain extracts was much smaller than PTTH activity in the hemolymph implying that most PTTH synthesized by the brain is secreted to the hemolymph and the brain stores a very little amount of PTTH. This study provides unique insights onto the hormonal regulation of ecdysteroid synthesis in the Eri silkworm and is useful for our future studies on signal transduction of insect neurolaelatides.展开更多
