recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-97851-x

Abstract: The adipokinetic hormone (AKH) of insects is considered an equivalent of the mammalian hormone glucagon as it induces fast mobilization of carbohydrates and lipids from the fat body upon starvation. Yet, in foraging honey bees,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms19020542

Abstract: Adipokinetic hormone (AKH) is a highly researched insect neuropeptide that induces the mobilization of carbohydrates and lipids from the fat body at times of high physical activity, such as flight and locomotion. As a naturally… read more here.
