Abstract: In insects, pheromones are detected by olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) of the antennae that co-express pheromone receptors (PRs) and the “sensory neuron membrane protein 1” (SNMP1). Beyond its relevance for pheromone detection via the antenna,… read more here.

Abstract: Adipokinetic hormone (AKH) is one of the most important metabolic neuropeptides in insects, with actions similar to glucagon in vertebrates. AKH regulates carbohydrate and fat metabolism by mobilizing trehalose and diacylglycerol into circulation from glycogen… read more here.
